Rant rant rant... I tried, begged, and nothing happened... so you

Okay, so about the title.

You guys, (those few who read my blogs :P, not the random ones (love you, still, but yeah xD) know how I've been graphic designing for a while now, right? Now, as much as I have to admit that I'm NOWHERE near the level I want to be, I'm sort of proud of how I even managed to learn how to use GIMP.

But one day, not long ago, I got a request. Won't say from who, I'm not the low, okay? I may rant, but I'm keeping her identity as a secret.Although, I wouldn't really care if she bashed me..actually....

 

SO, to cut the crap, the request was for a 6-char poster. Advanced designers now will just shrug, saying how that's not a lot, even for angst. Yes, I admit that it's more than possible to fit them on, but since hald the pics I got (linked from the requester) were happy, and I couldn't find any fitting ones, I couldn't just blend OR crop them. For days, I tried to work on some template or anything that could help, but nope, nothing.

Seriously.

Here comes the part that made me angry.

SO, I nicely wrote to the requester, asking who the main chars were. I knew that not all 6 were the main cast cause it was pretty easy to figure it out from what she wrote, but I can't say that about WHO the mains are.

So, I even offered her to make a charater chars. I can make them (:3)

BUT, she didn't respond, not even after days.

OKAY, she probably missed it. Those who know me know well that I can miss things like that easily and wait for months for one single PM when it arrived before.

Because of that, I tried again.

And again.

Failure was my result, so I asked her to please, answer since she probably missed my PM. RIGHT?

Okay, so I decided to try once more, took a deep breath and blended the 6 together. Came out ty as hell, but mainly because of the coloring that I screwed up. Still, it was quite satisfying, given how I couldn't do anything at first.

SO, with a grin, I sent the link to the one who manages the shop I made it for.

Some time later, she writes back to me.

She cancelled the request.

RIGHT before it was up.

Now, okay, so she probably didn't like how I talked to her. I checked what I wrote, it was nothing you know...rude or anything. I mean, my parents say I'm rude but...am I really?

SO, I wrote to her, informing her how her poster was actually done.

TOO BAD, as she had one done already by someone else (it's awesome btw)

I waited again, just for a PM like 'yeah, you were rude' or 'well, I knew that you can't make it and forgot to write' or anything.

But NOPE.

SO, I snapped at her in PM, like a day ago.

Still, no response.

She could have just frigging told in my face that she didn't want me to make it now, or that someone could do it quicker, or ANYTHING.

It just feels like I'm a freaking invisible man.

By the way, I know that you might be reading this. But...ya know what?

If you don't have enough respect for me to just REPLY, then... I don't respect you at all. (but still, I won't publish the UN :3)

 

Before anything, let me say again:

My problem wasn't how she cancelled the request, I'm fine with it, really. But how she ignored me when I pretty much BEGGED her to just reply. Maked you feel insignificant, ya know...

 

Anyway, I'm well today. My cat destroyed my fingertip (not as bad as sounds) but I'm okay xD

That's it I guess.

And please guys, this was written in rage, don't think I'm a stupid, agressive b*tch, okay?

Love ya ^^

 

EDIT: I might not reply to everyone, (here, comments on fics, PMs etc.) I decided to watch Lady and Tramp...again

It's okay if you about this, 'cause you're just returning the favor. It's all fair to me.

I consider myself a fairly good designer, and even I have a character limit. Too many characters don't look good, unless you're extremely skilled.
I understand your frustration.

that girl have no right to bash you here as you already keep her identity so well...she has no shame if she does that....it's obviously her fault...you have a right to rant about it....
from your story up there, she might be already requested another poster from another source meanwhile or maybe even before you're getting her poster done...that's why she's ignoring you...I mean it's kinda impossible to have another poster request done but can't simply just respond to your pm....and that's totally completely just made she IS RuDe....it's not your fault...you've done everything you could to not disappointed her...but she just carelessly didn't respond to your pm earlier....
sorry for taking your space here...it's your story but I kinda get the feelings...
so be strong and keep do what make you happy...she broke a heart but you made many hearts happy.... :)

OMG sorry to hear about. It must have been frustrating . Sadly though it won't be the last time that happens, there's pretty rude ppl on here on AFF.

So you have your own graphic shop?

Are you sure she wasn't just not online? I know some people who only come on rarely and only do stuff like upload and then leave.

That's rude and inconsiderate. She could have replied back at least, nicely. That was uncalled for. I understand your frustrations.
