Your mastery of perspective drawing is really impressive. This is the first time I've looked at these on my computer instead of phone.  Very impressed, those buildings are excellent and the inside of that ballroom... and that is a skill not many people have or have learned! |

If you mistakenly interpreted my advice as a personal attack on Bran's artistic ability then you missed the point entirely, as that was not my intention. Fine, you might have just dismissed the most genuine criticism in the entire thread but that's entirely your decision to make, and I respect that. But it is wrong for you all to condemn me for being the only person with enough balls to say the what other's dare not. It might not have been nice, or what you all wanted to hear, but if you didn't want our good and honest opinions why post this thread at all!? Sure, what I said was plainly objectionable but it stands serve you a darn side better than if I had just said great job! That's all I have to say on that matter and I wish you and your book the best of luck!

Congrats Adam. Bought the kindle version a few days ago... I'll have it read soon enough.

That's all I have to say on that matter and I wish you and your book the best of luck! What's funny is that you think your opinion is the only one that matters. I haven't had one smidgen of negative feedback yet, mostly cause the book is still in its raw phase. When I get some real ones, it'll help improve my story-telling. But out of the probably 30 people that have seen the cover, they all love it, except you. The lone wolf that said "Bran isn't a professional, so hire one and spend $1000s"...if that's your best advice, then you suck at it. |

Well, he sh!t all over me (before he edited his post, which he apparently squeezed in before I disabled his account) so I sh!t all over him by messing with his account. I did decide to let him back early though. I originally planned to keep him banned the rest of the month, but I figured I gave him enough of a time out that he was probably bothered enough by now. He knows very well that the only reason Cap and I don't IP ban him is because he genuinely adds value to DBF as a member, and his value usually outweighs how much of a bully/troll/douche he WANTS to be. If he didn't help others on the forum and add value, he'd be long gone. Not being allowed on here would suck. The only options are the ghost town DBT and disorganized Sideshow. All Sideshow has is one DBZ topic that is just a disorganized mess of posts. Sonkakarot is lucky to get one reply to anything he posts in that topic about collection updates and such, so hopefully he shapes up. It was so stupid to come in here and see BS from him after like 6 months of GREAT behavior.

LOL-berries! It's not actually about intentionally making a douche of myself at all. I thought, given all the effort Adam went through to write and published his first book, Adam deserved to hear my honest opinion. Just because I didn't praise his work as being the single greatest addition to modern literature in recent history, you don't have to tear me a new one. No-one can force me to like it, and believe me - that was me being as polite as humanly possible.
Also, I don't recall the edit being that significant. Maybe a spelling error or two was rectified. Just for the record, I didn't say my opinion was the most important. I only stated that I was the only one to voice any opinion at all. Congratulations aren't constructive. I explained precisely what it was I disliked and even suggested a viable solution to help improve upon said "perceived" flaw. That's the very definition of constructive criticism, not flat out negativity. Believe me you could cop a lot worse from the internet.

Not to get off topic or anything but can I get one of those flashy names? I have become jealous of kai for his unnecessary long name. When do I get a name added? Bird is the word times 9,000 is what I want. It should be close to 1,000 post each time I say something. |

Awesome.  I got to edit Book 2 and 3 soon. Then write the 4th, which will be the best one. I have ideas for up to at least 7 books in the series. |

I think the amazon link doesn't work or something went wrong  Nice job, it seems. I started to write a book recently, I might get this as e-book if you have pdf version. I'm curious |

Hey DBF members, I am trying to increase my amazon reviews for Plates of Kokoro. I haven't marketed the book really at all since I was in school, but now I am graduated and got the time. If you haven't read the first book, I would incredibly appreciate it if you got yourself even the $2.99 kindle version of it. You love DB, so you'll love this as there is plenty of inspiration implanted in it. Give it a read please, my friends. Plus the 2nd book is just weeks away, with Branjita ready to design the cover....read the first so you'll be prepared for the 2nd  Thanks all. www.amazon.com/Plates-Kokoro-Jawshok-Emperor-Parente/dp/1500312363/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1451869315&sr=8-1&keywords=plates+of+kokoro |

Very impressed, those buildings are excellent and the inside of that ballroom... and that is a skill not many people have or have learned!

Thanks all.
