Hey guys, I don't post here often but I do hang around, here's a thought...
Do flourishes created by a generally well-known and well-regarded flourisher, say Chris Hestnes or Allan Hagen, automatically get rated well? In practical terms, does it affect perceptions, and make it more likely for an ordinary person like myself to rate that creation higher?
In posting this, I am not taking anything away from the aforementioned two, who are certainly brilliant for a good reason. However, if I posted a tutorial for a new flourish I created today, and then say, Dan & Dave included the same flourish in one of their DVD's say three years into the future, after people had long forgotten my video, would I receive the same level of acclaim that they would?
Regardless of the actual quality of the flourish (assuming of course that it wasn't total rubbish, and was a decent flourish), I should think that the latter would receive far less criticism than I would for any flaws in the move.
Just a thought or two,
Peace.
