You're entitled to your own opinion, but I don't know any good artists who charge much less than I do. On average a server logo takes 14 hours. If I charge $75, which is my starting price, that's about $5.30/hour, which is basically half of minimun wage.
Thats not how to calculate art. As someone who works minimum wage, I know its more work doing a real job than sitting at Photoshop for a day. Also, why is this your target audience? 1/2 the community isnt in high school, meaning they have little money at their disposal. When you sell something on these forums for over 50$, let me know.

His point is why buy what you're selling when one can get something better for cheaper?
I'd like to see who you can find who can do better for cheaper. I've come across very few decent artists in the art section.

My art takes a lot of time not to mention skill. I've done art for PLENTY of people willing to pay my prices. My "target audience" is Minecraft uers and server owners. People can choose to buy from me or not buy from me. There are plenty of other people.

Finsgraphics? Are you kidding? Their server logos are in the high hundreds xD

Look where he started from.
What's your point? I'm not exactly a beginner when it comes to art. I've been doing digital art for nearly 2 years and I've been drawing almost my entire life. I've done almost 30 commissions in the last 2 months.

Yes

This guy is decent and I'd say he's better than you, even if its cringey and not unique.
Even if you think he's "better" than me, his prices are WAY higher than mine. I'd consider my art comparable to his and I charge a fraction of what he charges.

Look where he started from here. All I'm saying is you need to build a name for yourself. You can't just bust down the door with these prices. You're not gonna sell.

I meant to link someone else, sorry.
I'm not gonna bother looking for it again, but he charged 1.00 for a banner and they are better than yours.
