Tbh i think that deviant-art just leaves a bad taste in peoples mouth. It is an ugly old website with so much legacy features that it boggles the mind, and an acidic culture of selfishness. Maybe art station isn't the place to fill the void that i want filled. Deviant art most definitely does not fill the void. In fact i…
Hey guys, I'm surprised this thread is still going (over a year now). I wanted to address some stuff that's being brought up. For those of you who don't know me, I'm Leo. I'm the Founder of ArtStation. 1. Please report stuff directly to us when it's broken or when you have feedback including negative feedback Unfortunately…
Love this site so far. Only thingsI don't like is the search function. If I search for "Soldier" for example, it'd be good if all related artwork appears in the main area as thumbnails. And is there any way to find a list of all the pieces of art that you liked?
Deviantart is also infested with art thieves, and apparently, the admins won't do a damn thing to help you if your art is stolen and re-uploaded by another user, claiming it's theirs. I've also seen one example where the Admins (or one in this case) can get really abusive and un-professional. Though i do agree, Artstation…
leonardteo I think the shown album/number should only show what's set to show up in on the Community Profile only. (some are only shown on the website instead) Like in this example; number says 17, but I have only 4 are set to show up on the Comm. Profile page. 17 should really say 4 here. /// The rest are WIPs, and I…
Hi Leo, thanks for explanation. To be honest my understanding of idea behind each page was almost completely wrong. For example I was sure that 'picks' means artworks picked by staff and yet it turns out that it's pretty much the opposite. I'm still not quite sure what's the difference between 'trending' and 'community'. I…
@mariomanzanares thanks for the feedback. It's quality feedback like this which is intended to be constructive that really helps. @soulstice, which part of the search function is frustrating the most? A couple of notes: 1. The current search system will be deprecated for a better one in future. The current one really is…
>Eh, you are a commercial artist man. Luckily the world is large enough that niches can consists of millions of people so you don't need to be "Mass Market". Fans are ultimately the ones that will be paying for your work, even if it's the companies that are hiring you. Yes I am, I have no problem with that. I try to keep…
Alright Muzz, been thinking about it while I work, so here are my thoughts. >What i was suggesting wasn't to dilute the work of professionals, is that honestly what you think i am suggesting? I guess I sorta see this as a consequence of promoting fan/artist interaction. >Having a clean professional way for fans to follow…
As long as there is some control to the artist as to which feedback is displayed, I wouldn't have a problem with it. The main thing is keeping things neat and tidy and easy to navigate, something that DA lacks. That site has become a mass of garbage, comments and other stuff that makes trying to find the best examples of…
