Has anybody noticed that almost the only people that get page views are the people that draw Animae fan art? Is this just considered fine art? Or is it because DeviantARt is just full of young Weeaboos?

There's a 90% chance it's the latter...

I used to like anime when I was like 11.
now it's bleh, and it always has been.

Yeah, that's about it.

That's why I stopped going to deviantART, aside from uploading a picture or two every like, month. Nobody gives me constructive criticism on there because I don't draw anime or furry art.

That's also why I'm glad that we have an art portal now. I have a greater chance of actually getting feedback on my work instead of just having my irl friends go "that's cool".

Just go to the homepage and count all the Naruto/Death Note/Inuyasha/DBZ/etc anime fan art. It greatly outweighs the creative and awesome artwork that is barely recognized on the site.

Now that the Art Portal is out, I don't have to suffer deviantART.

It's very soul destroying to have your hard work ignored because it's not bright, colourful and FUCKING ANIME FAN ART.

DeviantART is just a collection of Japanophiles without an ounce of originality to them. You look at the front page of the Art Portal and you can instantly see the eclectic styles that a site like Newgrounds can bring.

Fuck deviantART.

I reach out for the truth of my life, seeking to seize the moment.

I used to get on there, to make the wapanese cry. Then I finally got IP Banned along with my Proxies.

Yeah this is just about 100% accurate.

That's the whole reason why I left Deviant Art. My photoshops almost never got any comments because my art wasn't some half naked anime cat girl. From that experience, I got discouraged from posting photoshops outside of the Newgrounds BBS.

Not to mention a lot of them are either ass kissers or complete snobs. No matter how bad your art is, the average commentor will praise it to no end. As for the snobs with a huge superiority complex for having page views in the tens of thousands, Deviant Art is full of them when there is drama of any sort.

After leaving Deviant Art, I came to appreciate Newgrounds more.

To put it in perspective, one of my non-erotic stories got about 20 or 30 views.

"Pet", my erotic bondage story that isn't even finished and never will be has gotten 300 views per part.

I don't go on DeviantArt, mostly to avoid raging at discolors of my favorite characters in fan art. I try to draw my own characters, but seeing as my skills are not... let's say up to par for the course, I don't pay much attention to the art portal, although I do want to start sketching out logos for fake teams,companies, etc.

Well, that, combined with the fact that your moustache looks like a goddamned rodent.

I fucking hate those faggots at DeviantART.

They fucking ruined my favorite childhood show, Ed Edd & Eddy. I hope those weeaboo furry assholes burn in hell.

Beware, what you see here might horrify you.

Devart still has some good stuff to use as a background, but for artists, it's pretty bad. I'm sure most users are 12 year olds who use it as a pron site
