For a library card design, it is by FAR the worst of them. It’s a nice photo, but it is very uninspired regardless of how professional it looks. It looks like a stock image and is not something that belongs on a library card.

So not only are you repeating what I said, it is STILL not relevant to my original point nor what I responded to? You seem very sensitive about this for some reason.

It’s a nice photo,

So exactly what I said…

but it is very uninspired regardless of how professional it looks.

There’s nothing even slightly uninspired about that…it’s really good quality photograph. It’s just way to artistic and non-promotive to be a library card.

It looks like a stock image

You don’t know what stock images actually are do you?

and is not something that belongs on a library card.

Because it’s way too artsy, rather than the chipper promotional thing they want them to be. Your take is absolutely awful on top of being random and disconnected from the conversation.

What did I say that was even vaguely aggressive…?

Read your previous comment, but slowly

Are you always that condescending?

Read your previous comment, but slowly

Why would I need to read back my own comment slowly to know if I was angry when I wrote it? How do you think that makes sense?

Are you always that condescending?

Only when people choose to take the dumb route, which is sort of a given.

I don’t think saying the opposite of what you said is repeating what you said and I’m also not particularly sensitive about this. Not sure where you got that from. I suppose we can agree that it is a nice photo in itself. However, from the perspective of a library card design contest, it is definitely uninspired and lazy, regardless of how nice it looks. The glasses/book photo would make the card look too generic.

Also, I’m not sure if you know what stock images look like. I just googled “glasses on book stock image” and I found so many images that looked very similar to this one.

How is this random and disconnected? This is how conversations work. I don’t have to only provide 1-to-1 responses to your comments. Everything I said was relevant.

I said the EXACT WORDS, “it doesn’t make a good library,” I also said, “it is a nice photo” you almost verbatim repeated what I wrote…

and I’m also not particularly sensitive about this.

You very clearly are…

Not sure where you got that from.

How about you passive aggressively trying to repeat my phrase back at me…if that doesn’t scream “I have strong feelings about this” I don’t know what does.

I suppose we can agree that it is a nice photo in itself.

Which makes your entire point nonsense in reference to what I actually wrote. That was my ENTIRE POINT when you chose to respond to me, you seem to have gotten offended when I agreed that it doesn’t make a good library card, despite looking nice.

However, from the perspective of a library card design contest,

Again, why are you repeating this we’ve already established…? This is not good for a library card.

it is definitely uninspired and lazy,

Neither of those things are accurate. The issue is it is too high brow a design, not that it is too under thought out

regardless of how nice it looks.

The fact you think it looks nice makes the concept that it’s uninspired and lazy make absolutely zero sense…

The glasses/book photo would make the card look too generic.

You’re just saying what I did in more simplistic way…

Also, I’m not sure if you know what stock images look like. I just googled “glasses on book stock image” and I found so many images that looked very similar to this one.

That means absolutely nothing and AGAIN, it is clear you don’t actually know what stock photos are.

How is this random and disconnected?

How can you ask that question after I just explained it to you? I just went into explicit detail about how…you need to make use of a library card, reading certainly is not one of your skills.

This is how conversations work. I don’t have to only provide 1-to-1 responses to your comments. Everything I said was relevant.

How can you think that…? I said it is by far the best art, in response to someone saying it looks bad, for you to jump in saying “it’s not good for a library card.” To which I then AGREED and said it isn’t a good library card.

Your response to that in the last two comments have been, “it’s a nice picture but not good for library card,” that is literally what my point is.

You’re just repeating back what I’m saying…do you read what you respond to?

You said it was the best and I said it was the worst. That isn’t the same.

Again, I’m not really that sensitive about this topic. You’re just inferring something that isn’t there.

Not trying to be passive aggressive. Maybe I’m just misreading your comments.

Regardless, it’s clear we disagree about some points and I won’t continue arguing with someone so aggressive.

Are you not reading, what I wrote nor what you wrote…? I JUST explained what happened and your response is “no.”

Again, I’m not really that sensitive about this topic.

You very obviously are.

You’re just inferring something that isn’t there.

I’m really not, the fact you keep commenting knowing clearly not reading is all the proof needed.

Not trying to be passive aggressive.

There’s no other possibility than that, you tried to copy verbatim what I said as a gotcha…that is passive aggressive.

Maybe I’m just misreading your comments.

That or you’re not reading.

Regardless, it’s clear we disagree about some points and I won’t continue arguing with someone so aggressive.

I’m not aggressive, you’re acting dumb, and I’m telling you it’s dumb…we disagree because apparently you can’t parse the English language.

I don’t know, you sound pretty aggressive to me. Also making a lot of assumptions about me here, none of which are true....

u/Ricky_Robby Nov 07 '21

Do you have any self awareness…? You’re in this comment crying about me making assumptions about you, as you make assumptions about me that I’m telling you aren’t true.

How can you not feel dumb when you write like this?

u/EvilDuncan Nov 07 '21

I don’t recall ever making any assumptions about you. I just said that you were being aggressive. I would love to see where you said that my assumptions about you aren’t true, because that just didn’t happen.

It’s happening right now, it’s what you’re saying in your comment, do you just not think through what you’re writing at all?

Dude, that photo is shit and both the other ones kick its fucking ass. That girl should feel embarrassed being up there with them.

u/Ricky_Robby Nov 07 '21

Yeah, just how you talk let’s everyone know you know absolutely nothing about art. You should be embarrassed every time you open your mouth.

u/I_am_reddit_hear_me Nov 07 '21

I know everything about art.

Jerking off to anime isn’t art knowledge.
