"Tasteless"

submission: Birthday Surprise

date: June 23, 2008

This was truly a tasteless piece of work. I mean, I could understand if you were making a point, but there was no point made. I could understand if you were trying to prove that this was a normal thing that people should embrace. But you're obviously as weirded out by it as anyone else. What were you thinking? I don't understand how it's getting tens. But it doesn't deserve them, to be blatantly honest with you.

"Seems like a case of"

submission: Boxes Toy

date: June 19, 2008

creator love, wherein you love your own creations primarily because they're your own. I've written many a poem that I thought was beautiful, until others pointed out to me how worthless they were. On the positive side, kudos for making so many different types of boxes. On the negative side, you could've made a game out of it. Or even had hidden stuff. (You might've had hidden stuff that I didn't find, in which case it deserves probably another star or two... but if that's the case, maybe you should indicate that there are some surprises, or something...) You might even have made options we could set, like for the multiplying box: how many to multiply each time, etc etc... Sure, this all requires a little more programming and thought, but that's what sets apart worthwhile flash from junk flash.

"Pointless, basic, unimaginative"

submission: Make a piece of paper

date: June 19, 2008

There are a bunch of different types of paper. There is parchment, rice paper, awards paper, tagboard, construction paper, sketch paper, and notebook (lined) paper, to name a few off the top of my head. There are also a variety of SIZES of paper. Why is it that, out of the world of paper, you had to pick a plain white piece of unlined paper? And how come you couldn't throw in a cute little narrator to walk us through everything? Honestly, it doesn't seem like much imagination went in to making this. I probably would've just left this in my personal learning files and left it at that. On the plus side, you do "draw" a convincing sheet of blank white nondescript paper. ;-)
