    Are you so arrogant that you can't fathom anyone liking Eli's criticism? :)

    Wouldn't it be easier for you to ignore it instead of demanding that users not congratulate their follows?

    If I have a friend on Dribbble and I like his/her work, I'd like to comment and tell them they did a great job. I don't see what's wrong with that.

    The worst thing about Dribbble comments is this problem everyone seems to have with congratulating someone. It's my comment. I'm free to tell someone I simply like their work, without offering criticism.

    I think the people that are genuinely upset by these kinds of comments should maybe take it on themselves to ignore it if they have such a problem with it. You're not going to stop me congratulating my friends. If you want to see constructive criticism in the comments, then you do that.

    PS. The Behance style comments definitely need to stop. Such classless behaviour.

    Luckily we're on Designer News, where everyone's responses are calm and measured.

    Sorry, our club is exclusively for people who couldn't be bothered to make a good avatar. My swirl represents my infinite apathy.

    I was about to send you the link. It is hilariously written. I wish this response came about more often, instead of the DN community embarrassing themselves with seething rage.

    As a fan of F1, this is awesome. It's nice to see some branding that doesn't scream "WE RACE CARS!!!" and is a little more minimal than the others.

    CEOs in charge of rebrands. We still haven't learned.

    I think I will try to stay independent for now. Finding a product team or agency I'm eager to work with will probably take time and may even involve leaving Bristol, which I'll never do!

    It's always a small world when you're in Bristol. I've shared space with Rosa and Rich of Cereal Magazine twice. They're awesome people! I was also close to moving into the Mild Bunch office. I set up a time to meet Jon, but unfortunately had to cancel a few times due to being busy and then being ill. Understandably his patience was short and we didn't arrange another time, so I moved in with Cereal again after that. I've thought of asking again, but I don't want to be cheeky!

    I currently rent a desk with some friends in Utility House next to Lakota, but unfortunately they're moving on and the studio's lease is up in a few weeks. Hamilton House has always appealed to me. I've been incredibly lucky to share space with some of my favourite creatives - and would love to continue doing so. If you guys ever have desk space that you'd want to let out, I'd be very interested. :)

    You should check out Utility House as well. They're really nice studios, and the owner is very keen to keep it a creative space. Might be the right fit for you.

    Great talking to you, and thanks for the advice!
