Hello,
I feel that, if Patrick decided to open this forum its because many people like to compare Art v. Art.
Now, i have read from some of our friends that they don't like the whole Art. v Art topics because "its not the style, its the man" .
Yes that's true, but Art V Art forums is good because we can clear many misconceptions we had about other arts.
I may have a picture of certain Art and i give an opinion and then a student of that art comes and clear me things that i didn't knew.
I've learned a lot on this topics. I feel people should be a little more daring and open minded and join into the conversation. No problem.
Since i joined here, i always feel a very mature and friendly "ki" . There's no reason to fight or to yell at eachother, and there's so much to learn about other arts, and hey, its FUN. lol
Come on people, don't make a big deal about it and take part of the conversation and defend your Art

This forum here is not simply to flame and say that xxx is better than yyy or whatever, when creating this forum we were hoping for a mature comparison of different arts so that we can all learn more about each other's styles.

Yes, I opened because I wanted all of these topics in one forum, because they can detract from more informative topics.

I am not saying that I greatly approve of them, but they have their place and that place is here.

Thanks.

My opinion is in my sig.

Seriously, if someone can spell out a good debate then I have no problem. Its just the ignorant flame wars that enrage my "ki".
