So I'm sick and I cleaned out the DA gallery. I also want to point out a wonderful rant I read earlier by a artist I really look to.

The Original is here: [link]

Pixels is the next subject. I LOVE pixel artwork, Lei-lei and Glory and DR do such wonderful and beautiful pixelling, it's kind of like DELICIOUS candy crack, YOU MUST HAVE SOME <3 <3. What bothers me, though, is when people upload Candybar Dolls (you create a doll via click-selecting on a website) DA has since given them leniency, but I still think they do not belong on DA. The only thing that you did was point, click,right-click and save. Yeah, that's some REAL effort right there. =\ If they belong anywhere on your DA, they belong in your scraps. Also, Gaia avatars fall on this opinion as well, unless you COMPLETELY pixel the outfit it's wearing (Which I used to do back when I had some faith in that site), I don't see the point in putting it in your gallery.

I love this statement.

Lately, what is up with people getting a DA account and using it as their personal photobucket?? Uploading official artwork, Japanese artist artwork, icon and moodtheme pixels, and even artwork of artists on DA -- WITHOUT the permission of the artist to re-upload it! You want a place to store your photo's and show them to other people? GET A PHOTOBUCKET. Already have one and it's full?? Make another email address and create another Photobucket account. There's also other image storage sites like imageshack and tinypic. DA is not one of them. DA is a website for people to store their personal artwork that they did for comments and constructive criticism, or even to just promote themselves and get their name out there.

The main point of this is that DeviantART is not Photobucket. I've seen this way too often anymore. In fact, I've caught many infringements on the policy here that have not been enforced. Read the TOS for the love of all that is humane.

Anyway, still sick. Should write a paper. Too tired to do anything. Heading to bed.

Edit: Another rant...I love it when people fave my work, but to fave it without commenting? WHY are you adding the piece to your faves? Only because it's WoW art? Please, be courteous to the artist and say WHY PLEASE! It's more of an honor that way.
