Also, if we're being nitpicky, words being discussed as words belong inside quotation marks, and italics indicate emphasis. <i>Please</i> stop yelling.

Referring to someone as a CREATIVE, is like calling someone an ARTISTIC, or an ATHLETIC, etc etc. You can be a CREATIVE PERSON, or a CREATIVE ARTIST, or an ARTISTIC artist even, but you can't be a CREATIVE because you can't BE an adjective!!!
