Need advice. Getting views but no detailed comments, AND how do you best protect your art?
Hello everyone! I have two questions I’d love to get your thoughts on.
First, about engagement. I've been posting my artwork (traditional sketches and pixel art) recently. While the posts get some views and a few comments, the actual feedback is very minimal. I usually spend around 4 hours on a piece, and I'm really looking for people to point out obvious flaws or areas to improve. Is this lack of detailed critique normal here? How can I format my posts to encourage more constructive feedback?
Second, about protection. As I start posting more, I'm wondering how you all protect your work. This especially applies to pixel art, which feels very easy for someone to steal, recolor, or copy. Do you use visible watermarks? Hidden signatures? Do you upload at specific resolutions?
I'd love to hear your strategies for keeping your art safe and getting better feedback. Thanks in advance!
(P.S. Please excuse any mistakes, my English isn't very good so I used a translator for this post).
