Here you go, this is for the poster that asked nicely. For the contributor that would like to start a new blog...feel free.
I don't generally start a new post in the middle of a good topic, since it usually kills the conversation. But really, there is never anything new to discuss anyway.
I do appreciate the self nominated Digi Task Force. I am sure they will bring to light thousands of cases of digital thievery and deceit in the wildly corrupt nation of digital scrapbooking.

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 400 of 932 Newer› Newest»I thought she (Danielle Corbitt) actually drew most of her stuff herself? I could be completely wrong though.
...I agree that many scrappers seem to have some bizarre need to feel like they're "friends" of the designer....
It's the opposite from what I've seen as a customer. You say one nice thing about a single kit and they are messaging you to be on their CT, or telling you that you (and only you) can have it on sale. Once I said I was sorry about missing a sale, and one sent me a code so I could still get the sale prices.
I'm just saying that sometimes it seems polite to say something in the forums, but you don't mean it.
Final notice for new designer applications at Catscrap. I do not understand this at all -- they have some of the most talented designers, and the owner does a great job of catching QC issues, but you're right (whoever said it) there is nothing I really want, and it all looks vaguely familiar and slightly boring.
Was this kit made with the same CU stuff that caused the problems with the SSD pirate?
Wondering...

That isn't even close.
So now every time there's a medical kit, someone is going to ask this question? Without even checking to see if it's close?
I think Sara Amarie and Bree Clarkson left SSD within the last year.
^^^^ thanks, already noted.

I think it's a problem when the style of a store gets too defined .. I don't know anything about Catsrap owners, but I know a lot of owners will look at the style of a designer and see if it fits the style of the store ... and I think it can create this kind of store where everything look exactly the same and is boring. They need to bring in some people who don't match the style of the store but still do quality work - to shake things up in there.
^^^^
I totally agree.

Would these people just get over themselves already? Digital scrappers are NOT "Artists!" The best of them may be exceptional layout "designers" but the vast majority are just "crafters" using other people's creations to embellish their photos. Sheesh, what pretension!! As if you would EVER see any of the layouts in the galleries grace a wall of a museum. Artists my ass!!
What's with Jady Day Studio retiring? Didn't she win the DSA contest?

That's your definition of art? Something on the wall of a museum. How very limited. Some of the world's most recognized artists were never recogized in their own time. I'm not saying it's the same, but geez, get over yourself already. What some scrappers do really is like art, I'm not saying there's many, but there are some.
wiki - "Art is the process or product of deliberately arranging elements in a way to affect the senses or emotions. It encompasses a diverse range of human activities, creations, and modes of expression, including music, literature, film, sculpture, and paintings. The meaning of art is explored in a branch of philosophy known as aesthetics."
there is artistry in scrapping. there is creativity in scrapping.
don't try to degrade it.
What's with Jady Day Studio retiring? Didn't she win the DSA contest?

She stated in her retirement announcement that it is due to the fact that she is about to have baby #4.

I don't think of myself as an artist, but so what if someone else does? Why should you care if they call themselves artists, crafters, or yetis? For you to think that you can dictate what others call themselves is pretty pretentious in itself.
I'm bothered by that thread. Why on earth people think its OK to tell each other what they 'hate' about their layouts its beyond me. It's not CC. It's just judgmental crap. The OP is a graphic designer who does very graphical pages. They are beautiful layouts, clean and crisp, like you'd find in magazines, not like scrapbook pages. I don't know why she even hangs out in a digital scrapbooking forum because what she does is totally different. She hates 'irrelevant' elements on a page, and pretty much things all scrapbooking elements are full of irrelevant items. She said in another thread she would never buy a kit. Seems like she comes to the forum to make herself feel superior, because she certainly doesn't do it to share a common hobby.
^^^^
Why are you bothered by that thread? Very few people actually used the word hate. Why is not ok to say you don't like something?
I can see it being a problem if they had named people, but no one has. So what's the deal?
It's the word 'hate'. It's a very strong word. And really, you don't need to name names or pull in layout examples to be hurtful ... calling out a whole trend and saying you hate it can be very hurtful.
I've given and received some incredibly intense and honest CC in my lifetime. It can be painful but it is useful. It never involved someone saying 'I hate that whole style.' I don't know having a snark fest about personal styles can be defended as being similar to CC.
It's not a snark fest. At least, I don't see it that way. Some people just take everything personally.
Some of my styles were called out in that thread. Was I hurt? No, because it's not about me.
What the hell are you doing on the blog if you can't stan people saying I "hate" this or that style? Grow a thicker skin and put on some big girl panties!
Words aren't strong, it's how people perceive them. You perceive hate very strongly. Personally, I don't. I choose not to allow certain words to evoke strong negative emotions for me. It's nice, I stay much happier that way.
I didn't say I was offended. I said the thread bothered me. I can totally see newbies being offended and also confused - if they think they have been doing lovely stuff and a bunch of cynical scrappers start calling the whole style out and saying they hate it. And I only mentioned it because someone else mentioned that thread.
You really think that a thread at DST is going to make someone change their scrap style?
To seasoned scrappers, it won't make a difference. But it could be really discouraging to newbies.
^^^
Why?
Scrapping style is no different than how we choose to dress. It's who we are. They are probably thinking, "I don't like your boring ______ type of layouts." and move on.
And those that are, well, maybe they needed to try something new. For years I refused to wear red and always wore blue or black. Someone said that they don't really like blue but loved red. I tried it and turns out it is a great color on me.
We aren't dealing with a bunch of 14 year olds that can only do what their best friends are doing.
^^^^^
Exactly! That's my thought too. We were all newbies once. I checked out what other scrappers were doing and some of it I liked and other stuff I didn't. I just did it my way.
If some newbies are going to be scared off by that thread, they need to get out in the world. They need to stop doing what everyone else is doing. Is that any way to live a life?
I suggest anyone who is offended by that thread needs to don her big girl panties and grow up. Just because you like something doesn't mean everyone else has to, and vice versa. It's just a conversation about preferences, not an indictment against a paticular person, i.e., I hate so-and-so because she does fantasy layouts. Just deal.
Whatever. I have my big girl panties on. Big girls can be sensitive too.
It's your choice to take on the feelings that other people probably don't have!
Okay. I'm sorry if your feelings were hurt (I really am!), but if you are that sensitive you shouldn't open threads about likes/dislikes, loves/hates.
And for the spelling Nazis, I meant to write paRticular before.
I meant sensitive to the feelings of others. And there are people posting in that thread that they don't like it, so clearly it's not just me.
But maybe you are right, and I should just not read them in future.
I was thinking about it more ... and I have to say that I resent the constant references to being childish if you are insecure about your scrapbooking (or anything really). There's loads and loads of adults out in the real world, living a real life and wearing their big girl/boy undies that feel insecure about things. And something creative, which is often emotional, lends even more to insecurities. Yes, we get over them but it takes time. And being new and reading a thread that calls out something you have enjoyed doing as 'hated' can be a blow.
It wouldn't have hurt anyone in that thread to NOT use the word 'hate'. The whole discussion about styles and preferences could have gone on without that word. But it could hurt people to use it. So why use it?
Does anyone else find it weird that someone here is sensitive to someone elses feelings? What the hell are your doing on this blog that is about smacking others. There's so much crap and bitch-slap on this blog, I'm surprised you can handle it.
GASP! What if a newbie reads this blog? WoW! That might discourage them.
You're a hyprocrite!
I read this blog because between the catty bitch fests I find bits and pieces of very useful information. I don't participate in the smak, so I'm not a hypocrite. In fact I'm consistent - I read negative stuff everywhere. And there's a big different between newbies reading scrap talk at a community forum and newbies seeking out and reading the smak blog.
Justify it all you want. If you are concerned about other's feelings, you wouldn't be here. A large number of people have been hurt by this blog.
Yes and I keep an eye on it to see if people I care about are being dragged through the mud. I don't have to justify it, you can just go on assuming.
I hate newbies. &
I hate sensitive people who post on smack blogs. &
I hate people who can't handle the word "hate" and get all PC police on those who use it.
Wow, if I say that I hate wearing high heeled shoes, I don't see why that should make you feel badly about yourself for choosing to wear high heeled shoes. I do think you're being oversensitive if this bothers you.
Excellent. Have fun with yourself.
Its not PC police to suggest that people could treat each other more kindly.
High heels are not a creative expression. I wouldn't take it personally if you hated something I like. But when you say you hate an entire style of creative expression its different.
I'm not hurt. I don't really care who likes my LOs aside from my family, who love them.
Anyway - I was reading here and someone else brought up that thread, so I commented. I didn't come here to complain about that thread, and it really isn't that big of a deal to me. I can see it's not really productive for myself and however many of you there are commenting back at me to repeat ourselves - we don't agree, and that's fine.
I'll step aside and stop trying to inject niceness into this blog.
And there are people posting in that thread that they don't like it, so clearly it's not just me.
----------
Yep, there's always someone or somebodies who feel the need to tell everyone else that what they are doing is wrong.
ROFL! Do you seriously not see how crazy that statement is? That whole thread (which you are defending) is telling people what they are doing is wrong.
Thanks for that - that was a good laugh. Some of the best irony I've seen in a while.

Incorrect! Most of the thread is about people expressing a dislike for a certain style. Some people might be saying that others are doing their shadows wrong, but that's not the whole thread. Not by a long shot.
I'm amazed at the way people interpret things, I really am.
Me too. Like your crazy double standard where its OK to say you hate someones scrapping style, but not ok to say you don't like it when people use certain words.
My comments on that thread - that it bothered me - were no worse than the comments in that thread itself. You defend people's rights to voice their opinions while at the same time telling other people that voicing their opinion is 'being the PC police' and 'telling other people what they should not do'.
How are these two sets of voicing opinions different? Other than that one is an opinion you agree with and the other isn't.
You convinced me. You win.

I find it interesting how you used the words hate and don't like here.
No one said that people shouldn't scrap with small photos, or bad shadows, or buttons, etc. But the dissenters did say that others shouldn't use certain words etc. Do you see the difference here?
One lot are saying what they dislike, while others are actually telling people what to do and what to say.

So, then you can express your opinion but you don't expect anyone on this blog to argue with you? I can throw that right back in your face.
Go back to DST.
I never said what anyone should or shouldn't say. I said the thread bothered me. Then you guys all jump out and call me the PC police and accuse me of telling you what you should and shouldn't do. In that thread, expressing opinion is just that, its not telling anyone what to do, but here on this blog, expressions an opinion is telling people what to do.
So now you are the Smak blog police and are telling me what I should and shouldn't do.
Summary - its OK to say what scrapbooking styles you do and don't like, but its NOT OK to say what kind of words you do and don't like. Its NOT OK to comment on whether you like the wording in a thread at DST (that makes you the PC police) but its OK to tell people what they can and cant post on this blog (to be the Smak Blog police).
And you don't see the irony of it at all. That boggles my mind.
So, then you can express your opinion but you don't expect anyone on this blog to argue with you? I can throw that right back in your face.

Where did I ever say anyone shouldn't argue with me? I just pointed out the absurd and glaring irony of the argument.

I do see the difference. I was defending my own comments on this blog where I said that thread bothered me. In my own comments I never said what people should and should not say, I said it bothered me and we could choose kinder words without effecting the point of the conversation. I agree with you that people telling each other what they should and should not do or say isn't OK.
I purposely used 'don't like' vs 'hate' because I was saying I didn't like the use of the word hate in that thread.
you guys sound like an old married couple. the whole thing is boring why don't you find something fun to debate like whether or not the sky is blue.
12:06 you sound like Jewel the Queen.
Nice silencing technique. Are you going to do song lyrics next?
What the heck is going on at SBG, anyone know. Designers are falling off their site like there is some type of Maya disease. Anyone notice this? And speaking of Maya - did anyone actually waster their money on SteamPunk, like I did? Wow if this is what is considered good at SBG, she needs to hang up her hat!
I hear she is a real bitch and has nothing better to do than bitch at people. And as far as Steam Punk, I was on of the fools that purchased and take about jaggies - the lady needs glasses and to learn to design. So my suggestion to Maya would be hang that hat on a tall peg.
For you to think that you can dictate what others call themselves is pretty pretentious in itself.
_________________________________
I wasn't dictating anything. I was expressing an opinion.
They can call themselves anything they damn well please. Just as I can say that scrappers who call themselves artists are pretentious ninnies and you can say that I'm pretentious for expressing that opinion. See, that is how a smack blog works everybody sits around in a circle and calls the others in the circle names-fun stuff, right? The trick to having fun with it is being just just a little bit more creative than doing the stupid back and forth of, "you're pretentious, no you're pretentious." For instance, I will expand on my OPINION and say that a scrapper calling themselves an artist is the equivalent to Millie Vanilli calling themselves musicians.
The "calling all Italian scrappers" call ticks me off! Can you imagine if an American posted "Calling all American Scrappers"? The shit would hit the fan and the designer would be forever labeled as a bigot!
I should apply and pretend to be Italian. But I don't really want to. The double standard drives me nuts.

Okay, you're an annoying, judgmental cunt. Is that creative enough for ya? 'Cause I sure did have fun with it!
Perhaps "Artful Pioneer Amanda" would like only Italian customers as well, si?

Doesn't surprise me hugely. She's not one of the biggest names (ie sellers), nor one of those too scared to disagree with Maya either. Dangerous combination at SBG.
Well besides Jen U, Crystal also is among the missing. It just seems like they get new people and then all of sudden they just fall off the site. Pretty strange. Also seems like the only ones that stick around are the die hard Maya lovers. Some really good designers have been there and poof they are gone. Too bad because at one time I really loved that store. Now I hardly ever shop there, just not the style I love, too much altered art crap.
It also seems that some of the designers kits all look basically the same with a few changes with colors. Oh well it is what it is. Just seems that store is going down hill faster than the owner can keep people.
I heard from a friend that used to CT for someone at SBG, that if you do not put out products all the time you are just taken off and your store is closed without much notice. Now while this happened many months ago, that is really sad. You would think that their would be better management of the store. As life does and should take priority in ones life.
And speaking of Maya - did anyone actually waster their money on SteamPunk, like I did? Wow if this is what is considered good at SBG, she needs to hang up her hat!

Actually, I wasn't referring to you when I said that, I was referring to the posters in the DST thread.
Not true. I design at SBG, have had times when I put out product consistently, and times when I slacked big time. My sales have reflected that, yet I've never been shown the virtual door. As for Maya, anyone who's ever talked to her for more than 5 minutes knows she has no need for yes (wo)men, everyone can disagree with her as much as we'd like, that's how the best ideas come to life. Really don't know why so many here think she's intimidating.

Yep, look at Ruby. I suspect her leaving the store had to do with a run in with Maya. Ruby used to have links to Maya's stuff on her blog, but not anymore. She still does link to other designers at SBG though.

I don't think anyone here thinks she's intimidating. I do think that many here think she's a smug, superior, sanctimonious, know it all.
I had some money to spend the other day and went to SBG. Out of 20 pages of new products, 15 of them were ugly word art. I gave up and gave my dollars to another store.
I like word art, but it has to be creative and usable, like Natali's.
I don't think anyone here thinks she's intimidating. I do think that many here think she's a smug, superior, sanctimonious, know it all.
-----------
But why?
^^^^^^
Probably from her post on a smack blog a few years back where she basically called scrappers these days lazy, because they didn't make their own elements and papers. She also has this attitude because she was there 'in the beginning' of scrapping, which seemingly makes her an authority.
I'm surprised so many here don't like SBG. I must spend at least 80% of my scrap budget there. Seriously, no takers for the new creative fusion stuff? I blew over $30 on that alone. Must say I'm pretty happy. Oh well, I guess we're all different and what appeals to one is shit to another.
^^^^
Just checked out the Creative Fusion. Not exactly the most original idea out there. The colors are hideous!
I'm glad you like it but it's certainly not me.
I like some designers at SBG but on the whole, it's a store that I skip on the rare occasions when I do buy.
^I don't think anyone here thinks she's intimidating.
I do think that many here think she's a smug, superior, sanctimonious, know it all.^
Oh I agree - she thinks she is something of an expert when it comes to digital - oh she is so wrong. Her work sucks, waste of money to buy anything of her's. I just wish that SBG was not going down the toilet fast. Flush, flush, flush.
For the designer that replied, very happy that you are enjoying your time there. That is all that matters, you must me on her good side. Or have a really brown nose.
Seriously, no takers for the new creative fusion stuff?

No they aren't.
High heels are not a creative expression. I wouldn't take it personally if you hated something I like. But when you say you hate an entire style of creative expression its different.
are you kidding?? There's a large part of the population that expresses themselves through fashion that would disagree with you.
Also, I hate heavy metal. Are there some that are better than others. I'm sure there are. I still hate all heavy metal. Bet the heavy metal are not going to need counselling after that. So what's the difference?
I think so many people were surprised to see how many of there peers actually don't like their style and that stings a bit. But here's the thing about art. (And some of us apparently do call ourselves artists). Art is your creative expession and unless it falls into the conventional boundries, you'll probably find more people hate it than love it
I think that's always be true. So many stories of how XXXX died penniless, never sold a painting in his life, etc etc. Applies to many (now hugely famous and highly regarded) artists in history.
The key to being a successful artist is to free your creativity, try to express your ideas (and not try to BE an artist) and not give a flying fuck what anyone else thinks.
Sadly whilst people put their stuff in online galleries and seek praise for it, they not only miss the point of art but set themselves up for disappointment.
THAT'S why scrappers (in the main) aren't artists. Nothing to do with creativity at all.
Trademark isn't automatically given like copyright. It has to be registered. I didn't see a TM after the Creative Fusion name on the website.
Besides, I've heard that term without even knowing it was an ad company. I doubt SBG got it from them.

There's more about how the products has to be in relation to the goods that the trademark covers. That wouldn't be the case. Digi kits and advertising companies are unrelated.
talk about a stretch ... ffs ... who here hasn't ever heard the term creative fusion. Seriously, for the whiz that posted the link - do you really think sbg got that from them? lol!

^^^
My Scrapbook Art happened almost two years ago, so it wasn't that. And it never really took off either.
A lot the prolific scrappers become designers. Now there are too many stores, with their own forums and far too much advertising at DST.
What's with Jady Day Studio retiring? Didn't she win the DSA contest?
^^^^^^^
I don't know, but it seems strange that now Megan Turnidge is retiring as well. Maybe SO is going downhill as well.

Thanks, that's a shame, it was a nice community before it became all about pimping your CTs on every single thread.
Maybe SO just can't hold on since losing their word art girl!
(that was sarcasm, btw)
talk about a stretch ... ffs ... who here hasn't ever heard the term creative fusion. Seriously, for the whiz that posted the link - do you really think sbg got that from them? lol!
-------------
Without using the 'J' word, I'll just say that there's a lot of people out there (probably disgruntled designers) that will try to make SBG look bad just because it's a successful store that has somehow managed to remain relevant after many years.

-------------------------------------
On this one is a funny statement. Everyone assumes that SBG is a successful store. The only one that really know this would be the owner. Do you honestly think with some stores being open many years that they arent successful? I think the discussion was more in the direction of saying that designers were dropping like flies at SBG. I do understand that designers move and retire all the time. But if you really think about who all has left in the last year that was a new designer there. You will see that designers really come and go from that site quick. Never a retiring sale, no word, just poof gone. That just seems odd in the digital world. I can think of at least 6 designers that came and went with little of a peep from them in the last 6 to 8 months.
Or Maybe they don't want drama surrounding it and just want to step out of digi quietly? Why do we need to know all the details? It's pretty well known that if you aren't a top-name designer, then you are doing a lot of work for little return. Not all SBG designers are top-name.
I quit designing and didn't have a sale or anything. I wanted to just disappear.
What's the "J" word?
I suspect that more and more designers are leaving the "digi world" due to the increased number of new designers coming in and selling at ridiculous prices. Seriously, why would anyone want to work to basically give the stuff away free. I'm sure that it gets very frustrating. Add to that all the people that are giving away stuff for free and scrappers really don't have to spend all that much (if anything) to scrap. So why even bother with a "retiring" sale?
^^^^^^
I totally agree, it's just ridiculous.
I think that all stores should have exclusive designers. Make it freakin harder to get into a store and be a designer. I get tired of seeing the exact same stuff in 3 different stores because one designer sells in all of them.
Also, I think that all personal CT's should be canned and there should just be store CT's.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The problem with that is that designers are "contractors" so to speak. The stores are consignment only; the designer isn't paid by the store owner. As far as CT's go, I think there are entirely too many. Why does any designer need a team of 20-25 people? Who's left to actually buy? lol

Not a bad idea. I like it. Too bad we can convince everyone of that. I have no idea why a store owner would want their designers to sell in more than one store. It's not good for the store, the designer, or the customers.
I used to sell in more than one store, but since moving to an exclusive store, my sales are actually better. And I do less work. It's win win.
^^^^^^^
Same here. And I think it's a good idea too.
I think that all stores should have exclusive designers.

I'm the OP quoted above and my post wasn't referencing designers coming/leaving. It was referencing the idiotic attempt to imply that SBG copied the name of their new product line 'Creative Fusion' from some website of some obscure unrelated business somewhere.
Sad blog bitch that I am, I spent yesterday reading past posts. It's been interesting.

Well I thought I made my point when I said that is would make it harder to be a designer and I am sick of seeing the same products from the same designer in multiple stores. But if you need more reasons, as a loyal customer to a designer why should I have to follow sales around. It’s pretty annoying when a designer releases a product at one store Friday at 20% off then Monday at their other store at 25% off. Call me cheap if you want to but let’s face it money is tight and I need to get the best value. I am also tired of hearing designers talk about how little time that they have to scrap or do whatever. To me it seems like a quick fix to cut your store requirements down to a single store. If I was a store owner I would also want my designers creating the best products that they can. Not quickly producing kits just to make a quick buck and meet their store requirements.

That's all true of other industries too - the Epson and Canon comment still applies. It's how the free market works.
Some people don't want too many choices. It confuses them. How would you go about implementing your plan to limit stores/designers/CTs? I suggest starting with taking complete control of the internet. Then, read Harry Potter and learn how to use the imperious curse. As a final step, world domination. Only then will you be sure that the unworthy in the digi community are unable to burn your eyes with their pathetic designs.

Yes and I can also take an ad from Store A to Store B and get a Epson Pritner for Store A's price at Store B. I have yet to see that offered in the digi world.

If store owners only offered exclusive design positions it wouldn't be that hard.
I think most of the good stores do require you to be exclusive, it doesn't do much good when designers move around from store to store though.
I agree that designers should be consistent with their pricing if they are at more than one store. But I dont think they should limited to just one store if they want to sell at more. I think anymore than 2 stores is a bit much.

Oh see, stupid me! I didn't realize the world revolved around you!!
Digital scrapping is such a bizarre little industry. Designers are manufacturing a product; what is wrong with finding as many outlets as possible for that product? Do you think Basic Grey is going to limit the outlets where their products are sold?
Isn't it up to Michaels or Hobby Town or Joannes, etc. to handle the advertising and determine when they are going to have a sale or not? Digital designers would be much better off if they just sold their designs wholesale to digi-sites for a set number of downloads and then let the store owners manage the designs like a brick and mortar store manages its inventory. This whole industry is really set up on a convoluted business plan.
It is not a convoluted business model; it is a set up as a consignment business which is typical for home-craft type industries.
But it is true that the product manufacturers in these type of business models very rarely make the kind of profit that a wholesale manufacturer will make.
Just checked out the Creative Fusion. Not exactly the most original idea out there. The colors are hideous!
------------------
Really? I just checked out the blog and I think the colors are a gorgeous mix of pinks, salmons and neutrals. I really don't see how anyone could say they are hideous.
And on the blog with sneak peaks for those that don't want to d/l the catalog: http://www.scrapbookgraphics.com/?p=5922
^^^^^^^
oooops... I meant to say "and on the blog there's a video with sneak peaks..."
Ok ok, so I see Fizzy Pop Designs is leaving Catscrap. Please oh please tell me she is not moving to MCRAP!!! Oops, I meant Mscraps! Joyce Paul is a snobby bitch who is hell to work with. She is nice in the beginning, but then the bitch comes out. If Lizzy takes her stuff there I won't be buying.
Btw, not impressed with Creative Fusion. I do think Maya is a bitch too. And I hate Bethany's wordart!
I agree that designers should be consistent with their pricing if they are at more than one store. But I dont think they should limited to just one store if they want to sell at more. I think anymore than 2 stores is a bit much.
Sometimes it's the store's call as to what percentage their designers will have their stuff on sale for and not the designer's call. Take NSD for instance-some designers can set their own sales if in more then one store and some stores have a set percentage that all designers will sell their products at on that day so maybe that is the reason for the difference in pricing.
Also many designers are in more then 2 stores and do very well. Each store has it's own customers who may not jump around from store to store but only buy at that particular store or two. Many designers manage their stores very well, meet the store requirements and still have quality kits for sale. Maybe you just haven't found the right ones.
I think it's great that everyone complains about market oversaturation, but then propose store exclusivity... which would just open up the door for MORE designers. Same amount of stores, but fewer designers to fill the slots = more designers needed to fill the slots.
Exclusivity is for one thing and one thing only - more $$ for store owners.
Seriously, does anyone ever complain about seeing Pepsi at every grocery store?
Just curious. Does it ever occur to any of you that saying hateful things about people might be hurtful? Why do you find this fun? I guess I just don't understand how scrapbooking people can be all of that interesting to anyone to warrant having strong feelings one way or the other, never mind a whole blog dedicated to hating. How did they get so powerful that they cause this reaction in you? Were some of you hurt personally by these people?

Because it's more pinks, salmons and neutrals. It's been done to death and I don't like the pinks and salmons in the first place. It's like a granny's wardrobe.

Yes there are those on this blog who would seem to be hateful people but I think they are really doing it more for shock factor then anything else and that's because they can be anonymous so therefore they can cuss and groan and bring up names of people whether what they spew about them is truthful or not. Some of us come here for the laughs because most of the comments are totally absurd but there is every now and then some honest opinions about things. The blog was created because people felt they couldn't say certain things on DST but there are always those who will go to any lengths to be be nasty, untruthful and just plain obnoxious. Welcome to this blog.

I don't come much but when I do come here I speak my feelings. You can live with them or not. But if I think something about someone or a store and have my reasons, I don't have an issue dealing the crap back. Karma is a bitch and usually the people that think they high and mighty need to be brought down to earth. So if there ego's are hurt, doesn't bother me. But then I am that kind of person that is untouchable and bitchy rude and overbearing when it comes to digiland. I never get crappy remarks, as I treat people the way I want to be treated.

You also sound like an un-educated twat. Looks to me like someone else needs to be brought down off their high horse. Although you seem the type who can't afford a horse..... Maybe a donkey?

Not the same thing though (being overdone verses being 'hideous'). I doubt something 'hideous' would be 'overdone' unless there's a lot of colorblind designers.
Personally...I think the little green monster on your back is making you say nonsensical things on this blog to try to discredit other stores/designers.
Honestly - I've never been treated bad by anyone in digiland. And I don't think anyone thinks of themselves as 'high and mighty'. I just come to this blog to learn the latest 'gossip' and I don't post mean things about people. Then again...I'm just a scrapper.
I think the majority of nasty comments made here are from designers. They are envious, so they come here to play games to try to hurt the competition. Therefore, when I see ridiculous negative statements about certain stores/designers, then I know they are the ones that other designers envy...and I go check them out!

And you can tell which ones are the 'designers' who get smacked, they are the ones who bang on about jealousy and say things like 'ding ding ding'.
Jealousy? You wish.
Actually I agree with the poster that it is most likely other designers making the majority of the nasty comments here. I know that no one likes to hear that those comments are made largely due to jealousy, but that happens to be my opinion as well.
Um, I've done my fair share of smacking and I'm not a designer. Nor am I jealous of designers. I think some things about digi are stupid and sometimes this blog evokes changes.
But some of the stuff posted on here is just not even true or pure stupidity. I don't believe everything that I read.

Dycho (Amanda Dykan).

.................
Nope, I give her no power. I don't use CU so it didn't affect me directly. However, it did cause a problem for many many designers. Even though she didn't directly hurt me, I have sympathy for the designers she did hurt. They had to redo a lot of their products and stores lost money because of Amanda. Plus a lot of the designers and stores who were innocently associated with Amanda were dragged through the mud.
You don't have to give dishonest people power. Sometimes they take it inspite of you.
Anyone else had terrible CS from Joyce at MScraps? I'm honestly surprised that she has such a snotty attitude with customers.
Amanda Dykan/Lily Ann Taylor...hell, she's old news as far as I'm concerned. Why are you bringing her up now? She's not back stirring up trouble is she?

Seriously? I suspect that some are giving this blog much to much importance. I'll freely admit I'm a designer (why not since it's anon?) but I don't come here because I'm envious or to play games to hurt the competition. I'm not in competition with anyone but myself. I make the best quality that I can, after that it comes down to taste. Not everyone shares the same taste of things; what sense does it make to think that leaving hateful comments will bring me sales?
So why do I come to this blog? For a variety of reasons actually. First I think that many of the comments are truly hysterical and make me laugh - and everyone needs a chuckle in their day. Second, who has time to troll all the forums? This blog is like the "readers digest" of all the forums! I get all the latest gossip in one easy to read format. If there's something I want to read more about, normally a link is provided. I ask you, what's easier than that?
However, the biggest reason I read this blog is to get an idea of what people are looking for in products. I find that this blog is a great tool. Since people are anon they are much more open and sincere about their likes and dislikes. I use this information to create products that I hope will sell and be successful.
I have to believe that most people are smart enough to overlook the "nasty comments" and go on with their lives.

Are you following the Apprentice Design contest at LDD? The designs are amazingly bad, as in, really, REALLY bad. Do most designers start off like that, and learn as they go, or do you need natural talent in order to be successful?
I've seen a LOT LOT worse, selling in stores even. Most of them aren't bad at all for beginners, IMO.
Are you following the Apprentice Design contest at LDD? The designs are amazingly bad, as in, really, REALLY bad.
--------------------------
Thank God, I thought I was the only one. The only halfway decent ones are already designers so they must just be competing for a spot at the store. I don't know why they wouldn't just send in an application and skip all this basic technique building.
And one of the apprentices already sells there, so talk about a sham. I don't even know why they're making it look like she's "competing" because everyone's products are better than hers but she's just going to stay in there every week because Michelle won't eliminate one of her own designers. They shouldn't even be posting that girl's products, it just points out how she shouldn't be selling there to begin with.
The whole program is a joke. Basically just a bunch of people learning recycled techniques from three years ago when they last did the Apprentice program - as if nothing has changed since then.
Speaking of design contests, I guess no SYTYCD this year?
I just had a quick look at the first page of week 1. That Runaway by Jenn B is awful. One look at the first page was enough for me. Nothing special there at all.
^^^^^
The ones surrounding Runway are alright. Runway would have to be the worst, but that's probably because it's got such a glaring pink in it. Reminds me of House of 3, but not in a good way.
I actually think the week 2 entries are worse than week 1. I quite like some of the week 1 entries.

April 25, 2010 7:05 PM

Does anyone know why they didn't do one this year?
I wish that they had. It was actually really cool and fun to follow. I also enjoyed SYTYCS.
There are a lot of talented people out there, none of whom are participating in the apprentice program at LDD. Props to them for giving it a try, and hopefully they're learning a lot and will improve by the end.
I have seen worse too. I agree Run Away is bad starting with the colors and just all of it. Springshine isn't my style but reminds me of some of the kits linked as 'minimalist kits' everyone was raving about at DST so some people must like that. Letter for mom is OK. So is Flowers for Mom. I've definitely seen much more hideous kits for sale.
I actually think the week 2 entries are worse than week 1.
----------------------
Oh I see what you mean. Then again, they were given a crappy assignment - elements on their own are rarely good.
I was looking forward to SYTYCD too, but I read in the DSA forums that they can't do another one because they don't have a store to offer a design spot in. Guess the SO girls don't own DSA anymore?
It is not a convoluted business model; it is a set up as a consignment business which is typical for home-craft type industries.
------------------------------
Did you know that Walmart is set up this way also? Walmart does not own the products they sell. This puts the burden of unsold merchandise on the manufacturer not on Walmart. Quite a brilliant strategy for a brick and mortar store. Although there are many, many people who hate Walmart, it seems to work for them.
Just curious. Does it ever occur to any of you that saying hateful things about people might be hurtful? Why do you find this fun?

---------------------------------
I think typically it is insecure people who say hateful things about other people. It is a weird way to make yourself feel better.
Does anyone else think that all of Kaisa's stuff looks pretty much the same, like color wise and stuff.
You mean, purple-y gray? Yeah. I still like it though.
I can't wait to see what idiot designers are guesting at Miss Tiina's store next month.
Does that mean people have already forgotten she's a copycat/thief??
Apparently so.
First off, her stuff isn't my cup of tea. Secondly, she is using CU and PU stuff - even if purchased - against TOU.

Question: why are so many digital scrapbookers and designers so overweight? Seriously a lot of chubbies out there. It's so sad.
I don't like fat people so it makes it eeven harder for me to find a good store to buy from. Are there any stores with only skinny designers?

You are obviously just trying to push buttons. The thing is that you aren't smart enough to do it in a way that isn't completely transparent. I highly doubt you will actually upset anyone with this. Why don't you just cut to the chase and tell us your actual agenda here? Or are you just bored?
Here's my guess just for shits and giggles: You are Miss Tiina or Miss Tiina's rabid fan trying to draw attention away from the fact that people continue to talk about your piracy issues when you thought you had smoothed that all over by deleting products from your store.
^^^^^^^^
OOOOooohhhh Ouch. must have pushed your button! Awfully defensive there Miss Piggy!
and BTW - I'm so not Miss Tiina and not in any way related to her business. In fact, I think she sucks.
You obviously have a thing for her though, 3:33. Jealous cuz she turned you down? Bwaaaaahahahahahah
Can someone check the dispensary trolley please, I think one of the inmates has been helping themselves.
Sorry 3:53 (aka, Miss Tiina), I'm neither fat, nor jealous of you in any way.
Question: why are so many digital scrapbookers and designers so overweight? Seriously a lot of chubbies out there. It's so sad.
I don't like fat people so it makes it eeven harder for me to find a good store to buy from. Are there any stores with only skinny designers?
Wow... just a tad bit shallow?
Or you're just someone trying to make your fat ass, 300 lb self feel better.
And no I'm not a fat designer.

Another question from someone else: Why do stupid people always respond to trolls?
