Wow, Minh. I'm glad somebody said it.
I've seen where a few people have been nettled by Sharon's critiques, but she reminds me of my design teacher in college. He was a real hard case, and he didn't care how hard we worked. The only thing that mattered was the result! Period!
His attitude was that if something was good, you did it over. If it was bad, you ditched it altogether. He was such a perfectionist that he has affected my entire life, even 20 years later. Very few people made it through his program, because he was determined not to flood the job market with mediocre designers. Unfortunately, he wasn't a fine arts teacher.
In the posting guidelines, there's something about considering the skill level of the person offering the critique. I've visited Sharon's website several times, and there's no doubt that she speaks with authority. A critique from her (and many others here) is like money in the bank.
I sometimes feel that I don't get much feedback on my posts because other new members have reacted negatively, so the pros reserve their critiques for other pros. That's a shame. I have a lot to learn, and don't want to go it alone.
