If your job includes design, sometimes your biggest time waster can be waiting for feedback from a client, or from your friends. You spend a whole day to get every detail right, you send out your work, and then you have to wait 1-2 days for any reaction, and in many cases this could be “give me a day or two more to go over it”. By using Concept Feedback you could cut to the chase by showing off your work to the design community, putting your heads together to improve your design.
The site has a rating system, so you can see what people thing in numbers, but generally the more comments an item has, the better it is. Each commenter also votes on design, purpose, originality and engagement, so you can easily see where to improve. Users can also rate comments, so it is very clear what the most important bit of information is. The great thing about the site is that there isn’t really any inappropriate behavior. Weather this is because it is well moderated, or designers are just so cool, I don’t know, but generally comments really are helpful and encouraging.
If you are just starting out, this website is a great tool to use to further your skills. People will generally try to be constructive about their criticism. I recently saw a truly bad illustration, it looked like it was done in MS Paint, in a bad way, and while people did say it’s bad, they weren’t rude, and left tips on what to do.
