A critique is when someone comments about your picture.
They tell you what they like in the picture and what you could improve on.
If you would like to have a critique on a piece of your artwork, put Critique somewhere in the title of the thread or on your thread.
There are many things to know when requesting or giving a critique.

People who are asking for a critique must bear the following things:

Requesters
People who are asking for a critique must bear the following things:
- Please be polite when people are critiquing.
When people critique, they tell you what you can improve on.
Do NOT insult them or get defensive when they tell you this.
The person is only trying to help you on your work, and is not trying to insult you. - Please keep the pictures appropriate.
Remember, there ARE kids in this forum!
Please do not post works of nudity, violence, etc. - Do not ask for a critique if you don't want one!
This is probably the most obvious thing to know, but I still see it happen around the internet.
It's simple... if you don't want anyone to critique your work, then just don't ask for one! If someone still critiques, notify a mod.
Critiquers

- Be polite.
When you are writing a critique, please be polite.
Writing "YOU STINK AT THIS I HATE EVERYTHING!!!1!" will not only get you negative reactions from the community as well as being counted as spam and flaming, and will be treated as such.
Writing "I like this... but I think you can improve on..." is much more polite. - Tell what the requester what you like and don't like.
Saying "I like this drawing
" is nice, but if you are writing a critique, you should say what the requester should improve on.
Keep in mind... What do you like? What do you don't like?
Tell what you think about the picture (be polite!), and it will help the requester to improve on their drawings. - Do not give the requester a critique if they do not request one.
Self-explanatory. If you do, your post will be deleted/edited and you could get a warning.
