    Ghaaa! This pisses me off to the worst level, and I just wanted to talk about it to everyone here. What is up with the comments in the render section? Why is it that everytime I do a render, a person has to say "Nice render. It's been done many times though."?

    What the heck, what does the amount of times a picture has been rendered have to do with the render itself? Does it's popularity bring down the render's value? I mean I don't even see why one would put that as a comment.

    Especially when they say good cut, and then say it;'s been done too much. How in the heck do you go from complementing the render to bashing it's popularity? I get so erked when I see this. I just wanted to know what you all thought about this.

    They are just sayng that its been done before. I don't see whats wrong with that; I mean I don't think anyone says "Your render is pure ---- its been done a 1000 times". They just say its been done before <_<

    people get caught up in the mind that pro renderer's look for things that have never been cut. Its not that its worse if its been done before, its that its better if it hasn't

    i don't think people should say that but sometimes people do the same pictures twice which is pretty rare if you think about how many pics there are on the net ;)

    Um if people didn't cut a picture more than once the render section would have half the topics. No cut is the same unless it's copied. Plus multiple cuts only add to competition and should make a person cut better. There's no reason to write that it's been done before. It's almoust rude because the person who cut it feels as if his/her time has been wasted. I cut and have been last 2 years. I've cut well over 500 images and I know that when someone tells me somethings been cut before it kind of demoralizes you because you've spent the last hour or so cutting an image just to get 2 words of praise (thank you) and 4 words of irrelevance to your work. Yet the person will go and use that in his/her work and get countless replies with people aksing him/her how they made it, it looks awesome, I love the cut, and we get nothing more than a thank you.
    That's all we really cut for, a thank you, I'm not saying it's not enough but I'm trying to say when people tells us it's been cut before it takes away from that agnowledgement.
    End of rant

    I don't really get it. What is up with those people? I mean, I am not saying that they cannot spectate that it has been done before, but it is rude to discuss it. I mean, it is just wrong. I see no need to say it. So what if it has been done before, like I said, does that take away from it's quality? If it doesn't then why say it? I could see if the render was done ALL of the time, but it's still not appropriate, you bring people's self-esteem down.

    Your crying, over nothing.
    If you dont want people to say it then mention it in your topic.
    They do it because original cuts are far better.

    Yes, but it still does not make it justified, but I do think that your solution was effective enough, so I really see no need for this topic any longer.

    I've never actually said anything about a render having been done before.

    Mind you, if you think about it in a different way: Unless you drastically improved on previous cuts, then you haven't really provided anyone with anything new. I'm not bashing that, but wouldn't your efforts be more appreciated if you did a completely new render, that nobody had previous cut?

    But, like I said, I only point out the positives - I don't cut them, so I really have no right to make derogatory comments regarding them.

    alot of people get annoyed when they see the same render over and over, everyone loves new stuff.
