Top Community Feature Requests And Our Responses

In May, we introduced the DeviantArt Timeline as a method of communicating with deviants and providing transparency about what’s planned for our collective future. During the site simplification process that followed, we received a number of comments from deviants asking why we were working on the features presented on the Timeline instead of other things. Many of the features brought up in these comments are ones that have been requested for years. We want to be more transparent about these suggested features, why some of them haven’t happened yet, and why some of them may never happen.

The Deviousness Award 2.0

The Deviousness Award, bestowed in recognition of exemplary membership and an outstanding spirit of helpfulness and mentoring within the DeviantArt community, has recently undergone a reevaluation to provide a focus and a re-definition as to just what Deviousness truly represents. The award is given once per month to honor a deviant who has gone above and beyond in their services to the DeviantArt Community. The 189 recipients of the Award thus far have brought something to the community that was not there before their presence, and it's our duty — and honor — to publicly recognize their efforts in doing so.

Cooking is how I CreateEveryDay. Sometimes I challenge myself to see how creative I can be using only the ingredients in my kitchen.

The Hidden Artist Inside Me

Do you remember when you were little? That time when your parents were doing something oh so exciting, but you had to go to bed? You wanted oh so badly to stay awake, and join in on the experience, but couldn't because you had school tomorrow. You were scared to miss out on things. So as your parents tell you it's bedtime, you reluctantly stop whatever you're doing and change into your pajamas, brush your teeth, and get ready for bed. As your climbing under the covers, your parents turn out the light and whisper goodnight. You try one last time to convince them to let you stay up, but they shake their heads and close the door, engulfing your room in darkness.

Now rendered temporarily blind, you lay there in the dark room as your eyes dart around wildly, trying to make out your surroundings. The first thing that comes into focus is your tall dresser, standing at the foot of your single bed. Then you make out the shapes of your toys, clothes strewn about and hanging from hooks and furnishings, side tables, and of course an old doll sitting atop a shelf staring directly at you with a sinister smile.

Receiver

I’m a taker-receiver
I always get what I take
You only take what they leave you
You get nothing if you keep that rate
I’m a sayer-repeater
I’ll suck the time from your eyes
While you follow the leader
I’ll take your soul
And your merchandise

Critique

New Avengers - The Reunion by Jo-Chen

Actually, I quite like this technique for a comic. First of all, I can very well understand that you don't like vast amounts of work and thus use stock images creating photomanipulations like this.

Watch Forever?

I've never done one of these before, but it's a fun thing I've seen around on Tumblr plenty of times, so I thought why not do one here on DA? Basically, here are some people I've been watching for a long time on DA, people who I'll go on watching without question. I'm choosing to highlight a few, because they're super rad, but everyone on the list is super rad, and you should totally watch all of them.

Chun-Li Style by Artgerm

One of my friends loves Chun-Li and he would absolutely flip over having this as a wallpaper! I'm so glad to see you in the tribute book as well! I can't wait to purchase one of those. (They'll be for sale, right? I can't remember for the life of me...)

Portrait, Black and White

4 x 4 inches, 300 DPI. Can be head only or bust shot.

Your commission can be of your characters or my characters. Fanart is free, but I'll only do a maximum of 4 per month. You can also do an art trade in lieu of paying for a commission.

Please provide some images for reference. If you want, you can also make requests regarding the character's pose and/or actions. Please keep your requests around a PG-13 level (so nothing overly violent, sexual, or fetishistic).

Expect commissions to take about a week to complete. Send me a note with your email so I can send you a full-resolution PNG copy of the image when I'm done.
Request Commission 500
