If you want to show off your listings, please use the New Listing thread here:
http://www.etsy.com/teams/9573/mmo-gamer-craft-squad/discuss/10736082/Don't start a new thread unless you are offering some sort of sale, looking for feedback, or have something else to say about your items. It helps keep the discussion board from looking spammy.
Also, always keep in mind that if you're putting things you made on the internet, people will comment on it and critique it. It's inevitable. Keep comments within Etsy's policies, but don't take it hard if someone doesn't think your stuff is 100% awesome. Listening to your critics helps you improve and hone your craft, it's a good thing!
Thanks!
