Calm down, QCC will decide whether or not to delete it. I don't think it's bad, but it is pretty simple. It reminds me of all of the old caption-only manips that were all over the place a few years ago.

First day posting, should I not post these?

They're a bit...low effort. A text-only manip can work, but it generally needs to be some pretty high quality writing, and even the font choice can make a big difference. This... I mean, not to be rude, but it's a bit amateurish. The writing is more or less txt-speak, and doesn't do much in the way of setting the scene, nor the mood (personal opinion as someone who's critiqued a lot of writing). Composition-wise, it's just sort of...thrown together. I mean, I've had images like that as well, but aside from basic rules like "Don't just MSPaint a solid colour over someone's eyes and call it hypnobadoozled.", there's a pretty basic idea that the more work shown put into an image, the more favourably - and forgivingly - it will be received. Always assume that a concept will work worse as an image than it did as an idea in your head, because your imagination will always fill in a bunch of sexy details you weren't consciously thinking about.

It's fine to post them, the QCC will just take a look at some of these but don't get demoralised, just think of what you can do to improve (or post a thread on the forums asking for advice) and keep going!

A lot of what DanGambino said is true though, even a caption-only manip can improved by including details like the setting or by describing a character's thoughts and actions - just basic story telling skills.

You misspelled the character's name as the first word in the caption, and the second word is also wrong.

Not going against you, at least not solely, but I probably need to talk with our admin team to get that phrase banned from the comments. I know, I am guilty of using it myself in the past, but in all honesty, you can't apply the time it takes yourself to do something to someone else's manip. It's discouraging, unfair and can make the whole comment section toxic instead of helpful. Everyone that take the time to actually create something for the community should never hear that he put no effort into his/her work.

If anything, please use something like "you could improve at ...". The rest of your comment is pretty good, I'd just have prefered you left out the first sentence.


A tipp for everyone. There are grammar checkers available online. Copy/paste your text in there then go through it line by line. It helps minimizing typos. Otherwise, our forum has been used in the past for proofreading, so feel free to ask other users there.


You should have, by all means posted it here. Personally, I'd combine the feedback you get here and create a v2. The scores can be transfered to the updated version by making the new picture the parent post of this one, then deleting this picture. For your first post, you should mostly expect to get some people to ask for improvements till it can stay, but once you get the hang of it, this will not be an issue in the future. :)

Since everything I'd say it covered in earlier comments, I'll forego the manipping advice.

I'm going to let the QCC take a looksy at this and make the determination.
