As in, things you often see in designs a lot that you don't like yourself. Like trends.

I wondered this as I'm not a fan of colored teeth and bones yet I love colorful blood and whatnot. Yet people are making colored teeth/bones a popular thing now? (Seeing, say, blue-colored teeth, for example, looks...kinda wrong to me?)

The only rule is that you aren't allowed to attack people and such because they don't like something you like and vice versa. Be kind and civil.
Also, species don't count. This is about things like a kind of marking and the like.

Hmm... there aren't too many things I outright dislike in characters, even though I could be picky when creating/buying designs for myself. I enjoy seeing all sorts of characters, generally, especially when the artists take risks with their designs. I also don't have any problem with self-harm scars, and I welcome characters that have touchy/sensitive aspects to their design (Hope I worded that okay ^^). I've never had a strong negative response to a design; if anything, I get curious.

Rant over... sorry. I think the only thing that I personally don't really like are really cutesy designs. But even those could be wonderful.

Unless it's like NSFW, there's no particular design trait that I dislike overall, since I'm basically chill with character design in general.

However, the only thing that I'm personally not a fan of are usually cyclops characters. I have nothing against them, but something about these characters having one eye at the center of their faces bothers me a little. I tend to prefer the more toony cyclops monsters, since I find these to suit my tastes a little more than usual.

Oh yeah, and speaking of cyclops, there's a mobile game called Minimon: Adventure of Minions, where every character is a cyclops (Which is the point I guess). Ngl the artstyle is pretty cute, and the game looks fun, but most of the designs made me feel a bit uneasy. I'm not hating on the game though, I just want to express my opinion about it...

Again, I'm not against cyclops characters. I think they're fine, but they're just not for me though...

Ehhhhh I’ve been trying to find design elements I dislike for some minutes and struggling lol but I finally thought of something! Well first of all girls with huge boobs kill me everytime, and I’m not a fan of beards in general, but the one design element I really dislike overall, the one which I decided to post for, boob armor. When it’s only for aesthetics like,, okay? But when it’s in games or stories I die everytime. And sometimes they still try to go with the medieval classic armor but just,, slap boobs on it and,, why...

I was speechless when I saw one of the basic female guard npc for the first time in black desert online. I can’t find a picture of it but it’s literally someone with a full helmet and medieval armor, absolutely no skin showing, but the chest plate has big boob shaped dents and I— 

I’m just speechless lmao
