Tagger*, the main issue here is not your welcome here, but how you act against other forum members. From post number 1 you been acting aloof and patronizing, having no respect for anyone, while youself demanding their respect in turn.
Example: In the thread where you mentioned you were going to draw the Forrestal, you said you were going to do it in a Canadian version(which, while implausible due to issues allready explained by others, I can agree with doing, just for shits and giggles). When someone asked if you could draw the RL US versions as well, you responded by saying you wouldn't be taking any orders.
Contrary to this, you've also made several posts in which you loudly declare your oppinion that it's the main artist of a drawing's duty to keep an uploaded(as in uploaded to the mainsite) drawing completly up to date, regardless of circumstances. While these two things are not the same, they're very related to each other.
You also protest greatly when somebody makes a personal design or an AU design that doesn't follow you strict view of "realism", but can't seem to accept that your idea that Canade MUST HAVE an overaged supercarrier isn't going to fly according to the majority of the forum - which collectively holds a lot of knowledge regarding ships and naval history.
Regarding your remake of BCRenown's HMCS Annapolis in 1993, the main issues were that you broke shipbucket style is some ways, and presented no proof(i.e. sources) whatsoever as to why your version was superior.
Also, a supercarrier is a project of immense size, which requires A LOT of skill to do. Since the only drawing you've presented was a mod of someone else's drawing, not following SB standard rules, you have not shown any true proof that you'd be capable of drawing something as large as a supercarrier. Couple that with your attitude, and it's not something strange that the forum doesn't trust you.
My advice? Draw something smaller, say a frigate or something similar, from scratch. It will be easier, and show us if you are truly capable of making a SB drawing of proper quality. That, and take it easy. We're not after offending every newbie. Most people who come here are welcomed, but people usually come here with a more relaxed attitude.
If you have an issue with how the forum works, you don't have to stay.
*As long as you keep misspelling other members' names I see no reason to stand on your conditions of formality regarding your name. I'm also a lazy, impolite bastard. I'm not only proud of it, I'm smug about it*.
