The topic was pet hates or as I call them irritations within DA and the art /creative world.
My personal views on this matter is leaning towards people can do what they want. Dont get me wrong I have my own irritations on DA and the art world is general... However I accept this are my personal views... and my views alone.
I bet many of you cannot guess what these annoyances are.
As I very much believe in the old age wisdom that has been passed down for generations, yet no one seems to take notice of anymore if you cant say anything nice, then you dont say anything at all. After all if I dont like it I dont have to view/read...!
Which brings me to the main topic of debate...
If you got a commission based upon one of the things I dislike, would I take it?
The answer is depending if it is something which I truly passionate believe against is, which would be of my mortal consistence passionate to draw/write or just my personal views on the matter.
There isnt that much that falls into the category of what I mortal belief against, there are something I would never use my creative skills to do.
However the little irritations, yes I could. Mainly as I may not agree 100% with the creative process or vision but I can respect it. I can even find the inspiration within and if I push aside my irritations I can enjoy and relate to.
This view has been branded as a sell out!
At the end of the day, everyone has to earn money... mostly doing this you hate, if you had a paying client and he wanted something you thought was horrible, would you turn him away? At the end of the day what your personal view would be wont be the views of countless others.
Then a lot of people would be out of business on that principal alone!
I think that want makes a good designer/artist is being able to relate to clients on most levels.
I found over the years that my open minded view to others, I have learnt to appreciate the art/creative opinions I didnt original agree with, giving me a border view/insight.
I am not asking people to have the same attitude as me, we are all different and that what makes us as a human race special.
Anyway... (Keep this nice... everyone is entitled to their own options, right or wrong... its the power of freedom of speech)
What are your views?
Be honest, it does not matter if I agree or not, like creativeness I will respect your views.

I do commissions ~ [link]
Now, if I needed the money I might try anyway. In this world money is what makes the world go round. If you can get it then you have to try.
Not sure that's what you wanted, but there are my ideas!

When this girl at the art museum asked me whom I liked better, Monet or Manet, I said, 'I like mayonnaise.' She just stared at me, so I said it again, louder. Then she left. I guess she went to try to find some mayonnaise for me.

"I wouldn't worry about it. I've paid more than $5.50 to make a mistake for two hours." -me
But if I had commissioning as an income, and was at the line of starvation, it's har to say how far one would go against oneselfes "moral".
Nothing I wrote makes sense, I don't think I completely understood the concept of this^^

Read my comic? Starts here: OpalondVII
I just trying to gain a better understanding what makes others tick.
My friend was against doing a commission due to it being not to her personal taste, she is hoping to make a career one day...
I said I would have done it (due to not being a big deal)I think the moral view is something you seriously think is wrong and would never promote...
Dont worry about understanding the concept, I found it hard to write and explain what i mean... without insulting people
