What is your biggest pet peeve about the DigiScrap world?
I can tell you what mine is. I am on a bunch of CT's and with the loss of my job and all the interviewing I have been doing, I can't handle all my CT's. So, I dropped two of my newest CTs - one is a SiteCT and one is a designer CT. The Site CT manager gave me a bunch of attitude when I dropped. I have already finished my commitments for the whole month. I didn't apply for that CT, I was asked to be on it and when I went on it, I said I would do the best I could, but no guarentees....so, she knew going in I was busy. Don't give me an attitude! There are plenty of people who take stuff, never fulfill requirements and disappear, never actually resigning. I could have done that! ARG!
People who play a love game (on like a store site - not DST - though it bugs me there too just not as much) and leave like the most generic repeat comments. There's a certain someone at Sweet Shoppe who has responded to about 90% of my layouts with "Beautiful" or "Cute." I know when I play a love game somewhere like there (where its not that hard or unreasonable to look at the picture and find something you like and leave a semi-thoughtful comment) I try to really look at the page and tell people what I like, and most others do too, so it really grates when I see one person leave the EXACT SAME FREAKING ONE WORD comment on like 10 pages.
I hate sites where no one comments in the galleries.
I ditto that for sure! And I also ditto Trish, but in my case, when I play the Love game, I only get 2 comments on my layouts! Seriously, come on! Share the love!

I agree about the zero comments and the generic comments that usually come from DST.
I can't stand when scrappers leave CT's saying they don't have time and then you see announcements for a different designers new CT and that person's name is on it. Not that it personally affects me, but I know it's not fair to the designer and
also give us CTM's a bad name.
I also hate when people get accepted to teams and they only use templates or their LO's look exactly the same. Mind you, I do use templates but I try to do one non template for every template LO and I also like to mix it up and have a variety in my gallery.
I also don't get some of the "white space" scrappers...they'll use one paper and a handful of embellishments and the picture is so tiny you have to squint to see it.

ok, I have started a novel LOL!
got another one, you see this layout and its awesome what they did with their background area, you get the kit, and that stuff's not in the elements, its stuff already added to a paper. Sorry, but that's cheating.
I hate people who use stock photos for the majority of their layouts.
I hate fantasy scrappers who dis on 'traditional' scrappers
I hate not getting love on a layout I spent hours on.

I hate when a kit is posted in a store without any info - no list of elements, no LO photos, nothing....just one generic "my kit is pretty buy it" type of statement.
I hate when there are great elements in a kit and then the papers look shabby (and not in a good way) and vise versa.

I'm so guilty of this I'm really non confrontational and have a really hard time telling someone that I need to leave a ct because I don't like their stuff anymore so my excuse is that I don't have time and then I have to go and fill the spot that leaving them left. I guess I should just be suck it up and be more tactful, lol!
It really bugs me when people do CT pages and there's barely any embelishments on it.
This one may sound mean, I hope nobody on my CT takes it personally... it's really just a generic comment and hasn't happened recently. I really hate when people get a kit they don't like from another CT and then end up using one of my templates because they don't feel inspired and count that as their ct page for me when it's not their best work. Go ahead and use my template for another page, but come on, my sets have 4 templates, give me another page!
