Is it ok to publicly post this as advertisement?
Added 2022-10-21 17:29:17 +0000 UTC
I'm trying to pull some more attention in my pursuit to leave my unfulfilling job except I have practically zero graphical design experience. That being said, shameless self advertising like this leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
I want to know your thoughts, is this morally ok?
Suggestions are also welcome.

Personally, I think the Gardevoir animation is one of my higher quality animations as a whole, but I don't think it's nearly as polished as some of my other ones.

2022-10-23 17:39:45 +0000 UTCDon’t mistake your cup of tea for everyone else’s! The Gardevoir animation is super well done, but it’s not even in my personal top 5 of his works.

2022-10-23 05:58:16 +0000 UTCAbsolutely! Self promotion always feels weird, but it’s very necessary. Your work is your business- businesses need advertising. Try to think of it not as “self promoting,” but as advertising a service. I’ve found this helps with the discomfort.

2022-10-22 00:02:03 +0000 UTCPersonally I would mention animations because I think that’s what a lot of people look for I think. A lot of people create images but few create good animations like yours. But advertise the shit out of your art, go for it

2022-10-21 23:58:44 +0000 UTCYou should! Your work is awesome and I’m sure there’s quite a few who enjoy seeing your work when it’s posted but aren’t aware of all the awesome stuff you have going on patreon.

2022-10-21 23:28:29 +0000 UTCOf course! I would recommend it. Twitter is where I'm the most active and get the most pull. I like it way more than DA personally.

2022-10-21 18:34:45 +0000 UTCI guess that would depend on the site you are posting it on. I see no issues with it on Ekas.

2022-10-21 18:24:51 +0000 UTCAdvertise the poop out of your amazing work! I'll even RT if you post it on Twitter 😊

2022-10-21 18:18:08 +0000 UTCI don't see an issue in pulling attention to your creations. I do it.
