I stand for what I said earlier in the thread. You can say as you might, but it's ultimately us who decide whether or not your critiques are useful based on our own judgement as artists; and since you are making your critiques sincerely and based on some artistic insight to the best of your abilities while the norm of this entire board is the exact opposite, I'd say what you do is acceptable at worst.

If by "anyone can be a critic" you mean that anyone can have an opinion that turns out to be helpful to at least some extent, then I agree. You're doing good anon, so keep having your fun. I do appreciate your input despite you pretty much spared me on the last one lmao.

And I hope you do as well, as long as you work hard.
