Okay, I know this will probably fall on deaf ears, but when I joined DeviantArt, it was what it was supposed to be. Art, art, art EVERYWHERE! =D But now? People are using it as a fricken FACEBOOK. No, we don't really care if you got a new haircut or put different eyeshadow on today Or if you take a photo of yourself from above like an emo, if you want real feedback, go post it on Facebook. This website is SUPPOSED to be about art and photography, and your hair or out-of-focus attempt at a macro of your eyeball, doesnt count as a good photograph. I'm not trying to be an uppity kind of person who says "this photo is crap" or "you shouldnt be on dA". But we really don't care about your 3 second webcam snapshots.

When I joined the HorseArt-RPG on my other account, it was also, all about the art. When you wanted a horse in an auction, you drew it to the best of your ability, and if you won, great! If not, theres plenty more horses elsewhere. But NOW, you gotta bid on them with those stupid dA points. Its no longer about the art and all about how many points some jerk can rack up. What about the people who can't afford to buy dA points? They'd be forced to quit the game they love, just because everyone else has money and can bid first. I don't think thats the only RPG that does it either, I know there's lots on DA, but I havent checked them out.

ANOTHER thing. THE FREAKING ANIME! Oh my god, I've never seen so much anime here, and sorry to say, majority of it, is terrible. There's good anime art, and then theres the anime people do and colour on Paintbrush. For example, I just went to the newest Deviations, and 7 out of 24 were anime, and 3 were cosplay. The rest was the typical "beginner photographer macro flower" and other stuff I don't even remember. I think there was a picture of a little someone shooting a rainbow out its butt.

If dA doesnt start concentrating on the art, I'm gunna go make my own damn art website, where I'm not gunna be charged for a fake horse, or have to deal with a bunch of shatty anime.

//End rant. *Angry pregnant grumble

Bwahahaha This just made my day! Most of the time I think my stuff is crap, but DA is actually great for my ego @ times because some of the "art" on here is horrific.
