"I can honestly say that all these pixels has been carefully selected" - Why say this when it obviously looks like it's not the case? |

Just like copies in GFX compos then :)
And what Randall said. I'd even say it's even more of a problem with tunes - since with GFX it is much easier to find the original eventually. |

Ayes, some GFX compos have that rule as well. Most only ask for work-stages though, but still allow copies. |

We should program an AI to churn out irate gatekeeping rants - just think of all the typing that would save for everyone. |

While We’re at it, We should also program a script to churn out fashionable words like “gatekeeping” that make the user sound very laid back. ;) |

You can throw snark, but this is gatekeeping by the dictionary definition. It's also some gross hypocrisy since most of the people complaining are using tools of their own to make the work simpler.
The whole argument isn't functionally different from saying that real coders don't use compilers. It's what insecure people who have pigeonholed themselves into a single model do when the world moves forward around them - complain and try to drag everyone else backwards. |

What is insecure about aiming for artistic integrity and high quality productions? Insecurity usually triggers defense mechanism. Some of the comments under Bowhunter are good example of those. And they are not by Joe... |

Oh, not so laid back after all. Good.

Exactly how pointing out that it’s a shame that low quality conversions of stolen pictures which were not that good to begin with participate in compos which state “no copy” in 2024 drags everyone else backwards?
Insecure? Pigeonholed? I see the fashionable term generator that guarantees laidback coolnes still works full throttle. |

I don't really need to answer that since you're assigning me a position I didn't take. Compo entries should obey compo rules. Though if we're going to say AI has no place in compos, let's get rid of all the modern tools that let people use clip art and trace too.
The people who are using every tool available short of AI complaining about people using AI AT ALL is what I'm mocking - that you somehow managed to interpret that as a personal attack and need to foam over it, well that's just free entertainment. |

All cool, sorry, I must have misunderstood you.
In a way I thought you were saying that this: Bowhunter is somehow progressive and our way forward, while this: Bri1iiI! is somehow regressive and “drags everyone backwards”. |
