YAYAYAYAY I got an honerable mention in the Cafecat DTA! :DD (ok that might not seem like anything, but considering there were 30 people who entered I'm happy i got noticed! and the comment is so nice!) I'mna be honest i was gonna get rid of the dude bc i thought i wouldn't use him, but i'll keep him! I might add other comments that are really nice :3 Results: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1266667752/ My entry: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1206482785/ whenever i get sad about these things, and i look at the comment i feel like 100 times better ty sprout ;3
What are you doing. Theres nothing here... sigh. Ok. Okkkk.... Lets discuss something :,3 Rant ahead. Y'all probably know what DTAs are? Draw to adopt. You draw a character for a chance to win them. Cool! I've been apart of... I think... 20 ish DTAs? honestly a lot, consittering i only joined scratch actively for only a year ago. I think. And they were the main reason I bacame more active on scratch and joined the art community. But guys. Can i be compleatly honest, They can be so disappointing. I had a chat with someone on TH about them and we discussed this topic lol. They said something about people who host DTAs being Bias. (ofc i'm not hinting this at ANYONE.) I kinda realized this is true. we are humans. We all make mistakes. ("If you've never felt uncomfortable about your mistakes, you're either perfect or the Devil. And I don't trust either of those, so stay back!" -JaidenAnimations) I had an example where i entered a DTA and made multiple entrys, A clay figure, and i think a comic? I don't remember and i'm gonna cringe to death if i look for it. But when the entrys came out, I was disappointed to find that i didn't win. (listen i put a lot of effort into those entrys.) And i wasn't mad that i lost, I was disappointed that i lost to a person who made a single bust. I realize now that i should be grateful i got anything. But Yeah. I was a little put out. (I think they were also friends with the person hosting the DTA. which like ok i know your friends but that isn't... Fair?) I'M FINE WITH THIS NOW I DON'T CARE THAT I LOST ANYMORE. But I'm going to be honest. I expect too much and try too hard. I'm known as the "Art kid" in school and basically everyone praises me for my art, and i was just desensitized to critique that when i entered the internet i was hit with more and more disappointment then i should have. PLUS, WHY DO I USE CLAY FOR DTA ENTRYS??? I HAVE COMMON SENSE!!! Younger me, You are spoiled. /silly But right now, Now that i saw the entrys for the Cafecat DTA, I'm so glad i got an honerable mention. I'm so Happy i got noticed, I got a mention out of the 30 ish people who entered! (plus the comment made me feel really good X3) Ok, Overall, I know DTAs are Bias, But what am i going to do. They are fun, and overall i feel that they have helped me as a person i think. Sure, I can get mad about losing, But what. It's for the fun of it all. I improved so much from these.
