1) I'm not SOTM rank, nothing is temporary about this title unless I decide to stop visiting.
2) Just because I don't post my work doesn't mean I don't do it. And I'm not going to act like I'm on a higher pedestal, like you seem to be.
3) If you can't take criticism, you're in the wrong category.
I would argue, you are not good at it. And being able to do stuff in a fast timeframe makes you worse. Take your time so your work doesn't suffer. Go through multiple concepts before you pick what you want. I simply just want you to learn and be better. Hopefully you learn that in your next showcase topic, because I will be there. And I will criticize it, because there will always be room for improvement. If I posted my work here tomorrow, I would expect people to point out things they like, and things they don't. Some of which might be opinionated, but maybe not, and I'll appreciate what I get out of it. You should, too.
P.S. Unless you're planning to animate these backgrounds, no point in After Effects, just continue polishing your skills in Photoshop. One step at a time.
