you don't HAVE to read rants, i'm not forcing you into anything
you have NO IDEA how much this annoys me when people do this. I feel that if you're going to favorite something you can do the artist the courtesy of letting them know WHY you're favoriting it. If you like it enough to put it on your portfolio under Favorites you should have enough to say about it to leave a comment.
I know I've done plenty of comment rants and i'm sorry if its annoying. I admit i may have a bit of an addiction to them but i'm talking about other artists here too. If you're an artist you always want the feedback, and don't you ever get a little annoyed when you post something you're proud of and you think people will love and you get exactly that image above. You all probably agree.
i think there should be an alert on this site that if you click favorite it should pop up and say
"hey! I see you like this work that this artist did! why don't you leave a comment to let them now how much you like it!"
That may be annoying but i feel like its what we need to get feedback. Part of getting better as an artist is getting feedback people!
