anyways I'm going out. i'll leave you boring old tods to sit there with your cup of coco's talking about how crap my work is

Unfortunately it isn't the greatest, If I could have you work with me for a week or two you would do that differently and it would look a lot better and you would understand what is wrong with what you have done, anyhow, I am done here, sorry If I offended you, you won't get anymore stick from me about it.

Posting your work on here is going to get a lot of attention what i suggest is rather than take offense and snap back is actually read the comments and see how you can improve your working practices.. i like everyone here started somewhere and we all endured the same learning curve you yourself are experiencing.. as i said learn from the negative posts and sign off with a thanks and youll take our comments on board...

im gonna make a suggestion here.......

anyone who thinks they have the right to slag off anothers work ought to at least put up photos of their own jobs for critique in return........

that will shut up at least 50% of the ------- around here.

i've put stuff in the "show us your installs" threads for over 8 months before anyone asks....

let the gallery begin.....
