I'm saying that there are a lot of non-pro's offering bad advice. There are definitely non-pro's that still offer good advice too, but unfortunately the vast majority of pro matte painters either are too busy or don't have the inclinaton to post their insights to forums like this.

I am a non pro (imdb listing), hopefully the advice i give is helpfull. However I believe in paying back, so when I go full pro I will try and help others out.
