Talking about Shaft

Is it bad etiquette to give concrit on icons?

You know, like: Love the effects! But mmmaybe you should look into that sharpening thing? Or: Adore the colouring! But perhaps you should try not to sharpen quite that much? Or: Ohhh, I like these, especially the cropping, but you might wanna get familiar with the anti-alias thingy?

Because I don't think I've ever seen a comment like that.

I definitely, definitely welcome concrit, and really think it would be fine to give it -- if you're worried, send a mail; only the most touchy ones would find fault in that. & :-)

Email's always good, but I still wonder if some people even want concrit, you know? Maybe they just don't think it's necessary.

If they don't think it's necessary while you do, they are plain wrong. Or blind. Or foolish.

But I am a bad, rude woman. *eg*

To clarify: Obviously, nothing excuses rudeness, or ad hominem attacks. But the kind of friendly-worded suggestion you mention above? Seriously. FINE.
