"chosen" is quite an interesting word for people like Victor. but by whom are these people chosen? I think it's: 1. the Colors! staff, whose work is featured alongside the "chosen" 2. exclusive and semi-exclusive clubs all over the gallery. 3.pandering artists and meme-addicted users.
what I'm saying is the gallery is designed by and for the creators and for the art(ists) they like, not us.
Aw, I'll give you likes. But Dave is right. I really like your style of art. Don't let people get to you, k? Like Dave said, likes get over rated. Smile, hold your head up high, you are an awsome artist! ^-^
Listen you are somebody. We all are somebody that can paint on here, Likes dont determin the art. Victor S. is great. I use to not have any likes but as time go on and u interact with the gallery more often u become someone people know. Now Im up there in my own league. Never call yourself a nobody because we a are all somebody. TECHNO-BITS QUOTE:)
Comparing yourself to other artist is creative/self-esteem su!c!de. I can do that all day, surfing DeviantART and seeing all those amazing artist with a million followers and hundres of favorites on their works, and think, 'Why do I even try? I'll never be that good.'
But then, I see my friends. And they remind me that I'm not drawing/painting for populary, but for myself and them. Art is my passion, and I'll keep working towards improvement, as well as show my friends. I care about their feedback. And popularity? I realized doing anything for popularity makes you a failure. Especially art. Draw because you love it. No for 'likes' or 'popularity'. And, NEVER give up.
It happens to all of us dude, that's why we set goals, to get good at something. But don't get deppressed, just think about the positives of your painting.
This is how i feel with my account when i look at my other account, on my other account almost everything gets onto TWB, and it gets 100s of likes on almost all the paintings, Im not bragging, because it completely pi.sses me off because its all obviousely traced. Makes me feel real loved(sarcasm), it just shows me that people would rather give me likes for something traced, rather than for actual paintings.... im thinking about telling people that my other account was an expirement that proved to me exactly what i thought it would
It's not really Victor, it's his HUGE fanbase. He gets a lot of likes, but he doesn't like his own paintings, others do. So don't blame Victor. Anyways, you get more likes than me!
Well you've got more likes than I can ever dream of having xD I love your art! Don't get discouraged if someones better than you! I use it as motivation to keep trying! So don't worry!
Ur not a nobody look at the ammount of likes u have! Plus if i compare myself to u im the nobody. the most likes ive ever gotten is 1 and thats cause my friend liked it for me
Nomatter what you think you are a regular person like everyone here. You have your own tastes and you excel at your own abilities. Never put yourself down especially when you know that a whole bunch of people will support you. :)
speedyman,you are special and your paintings are beautiful ,and so what if victor s. gets more likes than you at least your special and your paintings are special too :)
:3 who's Victor s? you're not a nobody! who CARES if you get LIKES?! I say, if you like what you do, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks! this applies to all things... except maybe serial ki11ing
Dude! Stop complaining! You're in the top 1 percent of Colors! Gosh. If you really need some more pixelated stars, try to stop being a jerk to so many people. They don't need your hate. Nor do they want it.
HA! Nothing. Try having to beg for a gold star every time you spend 4 or more hours on a painting. You think you'll get likes and more importantly comments; Little to none of eatch.
This got into top this week? Wow, I didn't realise so many people empathised with first world problems. By the way, 'alot' is not a word. I think you mean 'a lot'.
its okay, i think your pictures are great! i cant draw that good... i think that to myself too about what you are saying and say i think my art is great! and i show to my friends and they love it you dont need the internet you have friends and yourself, even you dont need any one to judge your drawings! my mom says that she loved that drawing in there, and wants it as a tattoo!
When I started, I only got 2-3 likes on my art. As I drew more and began to improve my art, as well as making friends here, I started to get noticed. Now, some people on here even look up to me. (I feel honored!) Don't draw for stars, draw for fun. Draw what you enjoy. Rather it be ponies, pokemon, yoshi, wolves & or other animals. As long as you enjoy it, that's what matters. And you're not a nobody. Don't tell yourself that you are, because you aren't.
VICTORS A or as u say an aticlame UR AWSOME HES TESTING U , U PASTED HE FAILED UR BEING THE BETTER MAN AND THATS ALL THAT MATTERS STAND TALL AND SAY IM THE BEST OK UR A NOBODY CUZ U SAID IT STOP SAYING UR A NOBODY AND SAY UR A SOMBODY U KNOW WHO U R UR AN ARTIST
people who are mean to him are idiots! what if you got no stars on your best drawing! no duh!you would feel like crap,. "aww no starz or comments". :[ i feelz for this guy because he thinks that, and i do not want him to feel that way and if you wouldent be a IDIOT then i will give you likes and comments also chk your gallery!
i would work hours and make a perfect ninja but i draw worst than a mule SO STOP GOING IN THE SHADOW AND ON TO THE SUN YOUR NOT A NOBODY YOUR SUPER MAN HOPE IT INSPIRED YOU!
You should draw for fun, not for likes, so many people are like, likes! likes! likes! likes! likes! *o* And just because he is famous and stuff doesn't mean he doesn't try as hard as you guys to be the best he can be, everyone can't always be the best that just wouldnt work.The people that are like he shouldn't be famous, what if YOU were as popular as Victor? Would you want people telling you you shouldn't be famous? And others saying that you deserve nothing of the things you deserve.I understand not getting tons of likes and comments, but this makes others feel bad ^ D: Also what if you were Victor and you saw this? And saw all the comments saying: He shouldn't be famous! His paintings aren't even good! I hate him! I always am like that! People, you need to face the fact that sometimes we don't always get what we want. And i swear if someone says i dont understand, i do -_-'' Also i am not trying to make Speedyman feel bad but paintings like this can resort to bigger issues and this could really hurt Victor <:C What did he do to you? It's not his fault he is popular... I mean come on people be more respectful and mature... I bet there are a bunch of 8 or 1O yearolds are all like bla bla bla (Some annoying ones) i don't care what you say! >:O (I don't mean all of them.) And thank you to the people who are reading this and understanding or agreeing cuz' i'm sick and tired of people comparing themselves and being desprate to fit in. I don't care if i fit in or not, i just want to be liked by others. :3 Hope that helped! :D Btw that comment ^ took me 2O mins to do so know i thought this through and i care for others even thought i don't know you. I swear if no one reads this comment D: Anyways #Helpfulthoughts! :D
@Lily I think the reason people like to take things out on the famous is because they can frankly. Youtube's the same, especially with Minecrafters. Sometime's I go on a large, famous server, stare up at the statues of SkyedoesMinecraft and what-not and think, 'Someday, I'll be up there. Someday...'
ur not a nobody god made u who u are YOLO! victor works too soo try HARD! u are the best! victor is too. vic works hard and u should too and why comparing people too ur self makeing god proud? vic mite even mess up. SO KEEP TRYING! YOLO!
Dude, you have bomb stars. I have a frickin' seven-teenth of that. SEVEN-TEENTH. And lemme tell you, you blew my mind when I found out how big you were after YOU commented to ME. (.-.... --> o.e *follows from epicness)
I draw for the fun of it. You get more likes than I could ever DREAM of. Keep up the great work and don't let the haters get you down! Good luck, my friend!
When I see the same artists get all the likes, and me and artists more talented than the artist and I, I get upset and depressed. Then I upload one to DA and get a llama and alot of favorites.

16 Mar, 2013, 1:02 am
pop culture shoves everything into a sick state of nothingness. And that includes me.
16 Mar, 2013, 1:08 am
I feel ya bro.

I understand.
16 Mar, 2013, 1:10 am
"chosen" is quite an interesting word for people like Victor. but by whom are these people chosen? I think it's:
1. the Colors! staff, whose work is featured alongside the "chosen"
2. exclusive and semi-exclusive clubs all over the gallery.
3.pandering artists and meme-addicted users.
what I'm saying is the gallery is designed by and for the creators and for the art(ists) they like, not us.
16 Mar, 2013, 1:12 am

18 Mar, 2013, 5:15 pm
It's not really Victor, it's his HUGE fanbase. He gets a lot of likes, but he doesn't like his own paintings, others do. So don't blame Victor. Anyways, you get more likes than me!

11 Jun, 2013, 8:12 pm
@Lily I think the reason people like to take things out on the famous is because they can frankly. Youtube's the same, especially with Minecrafters. Sometime's I go on a large, famous server, stare up at the statues of SkyedoesMinecraft and what-not and think, 'Someday, I'll be up there. Someday...'
P.S. Sorry TCG. I can be a right snob when I try.
17 Jun, 2013, 11:18 pm

23 Oct, 2015, 8:44 pm
When I see the same artists get all the likes, and me and artists more talented than the artist and I, I get upset and depressed. Then I upload one to DA and get a llama and alot of favorites.
