That time someone told me my ai mashups were 'too busy'

A user said my 'spider-crab' fusion looked like a tangled mess, so I stripped it down to just two elements max per image. Has anyone else had to dial back the chaos after feedback?

Read a design blog that said constraints make better art. Less chaos, more clarity.

But what about creativity... doesn't chaos spark something real?

Forced chaos usually just wastes time I've found... did a workshop once where we had to "break all the rules" and the results were pure garbage. Better to set a tight constraint like "only use two colors" or "no words longer than 5 letters"... then watch how fast the real ideas pop up. The chaos comes from pushing against those limits, not from having no limits at all.
