HEY GUISE, I HERD YOU LIEK POINTS? CONTEST!!
AND PRETTY POSTCARDS, PAINTED PICTURES AND PANDAS!!
(Actually, no real pandas, but it fit with my fabulous alliteration..)
So, what you need to do: Draw any of my original characters! Pretty easy, right? There's no theme (unless you want one :P), so you're pretty free- as long as you keep the character recognisable, haha. When you're done, you can post a link here or Note me, whatever. ^_^
Guidelines:
:bulletyellow: You can draw as few or many of my OCs as you like, and you're welcome to draw them with your own :D
:bulletyellow: You can re-design their clothes and hair if you feel the need.
:bulletyellow: It must be new, original work.

Site Update: January 12, 2012
It's 2012, and it's time for the first Site Update of the year!
Just a little while ago, we posted the latest Sta.sh updates and asked you for more feedback. Now, in this update, you'll find all the feedback from those 500+ comments gathered into the Known Issues section below, just after the Change Log, which will tell you about some brand new features launching today, as well as all the bugs fixed since the last update.
The last update was all about Sta.sh, and there are some pretty big Sta.sh announcements this time too, but this update features any changes that have been made to deviantART, Profiles, Messages, Sta.sh, everything!
The Judges' Results Are In! by deviantWEAR, journal
The Judges' Results Are In!
We received thousands of entries and tens of thousands of votes on those entries for our Logo T-Shirt Design Challenge. Deviants told us which entries they would wear, and the top 50 most selected and qualified entries were used as the pool from which our panel of expert judges determined the three winning designs. Check them out below!
A Place For Art by Hellobaby (https://www.deviantart.com/hellobaby)

Each of the winners will receive $1500 CASH for their design, 25 units of the finished t-shirt, and their design featured in the deviantWEAR shop!

I received some very good advice from a friend last night, and I wanted to share it, as I'm sure some of you will find use in it just as I have.
I lost a friend yesterday, in a irredeemable way. That is to say, I have no intention of wanting to repair this friendship. I went through a kind of... slew of emotions about it at first, not really knowing if I was happy or angry about all that happened.
That evening, a friend of mine called. He's currently going through a very difficult custody case over his son, so we had a long heart-to-heart, and I ended up telling him what had happened in detail. What he said to me was the defining advice tha
Warning.....wall of text ahead... ~imdeadplz (https://www.deviantart.com/imdeadplz)
Its something I find rather interesting and I know there are a lot of varying opinions on the subject. My thoughts on this where inspired by a recent poll and at the risk of people telling me once again that I am boasting or obsessed with views *eye roll* I will tell you my take on the whole thing.
DA is a diverse place where artists can come and share their creations but in the community there seems to be the misconception that talent/skill = popularity and if you're not the best then you don't deserve the exposure. Praise is given to those who make original work and those who do fanart ar
News to know: beware of phishing scams! by hq, journal
News to know: beware of phishing scams!
There is currently an individual or group of individuals who have created a fake deviantART login page, and they're using hijacked accounts to continue to share the URL of the fake page.
:star: Please spread the word:
If you click a link that directs you through the deviantART "There Be Monsters Out There" outgoing link page and you unexpectedly return back to deviantART while logged out, check the URL of where you are before entering any of your details.
The proper URL for the actual deviantART login page is: deviantart.com/users/login. (Note that there is nothing between "deviantart" and "com" except for a "dot.")

Morning Beta Folk :wave:
Today we've got a shiny new deviantID widget for you to try out :happybounce:
As it stands, the info on your page that informs visitors who you are and what you're interested in, is split into two widgets. deviantID and Devious Info.
This is a little unnecessary, so we've created a brand new deviantID widget that merges both of them into one!
Not only that, but the new widget will even help you along and make it easier for you to fill in all your info :dummy:
How do I try it?
Simply edit either your deviantID or Devious Info widget and you'll get a little notice asking if you want to upgrade to the new deviantID

Dancing Business Cat - Race to End Animal Cruelty
!Topicality (https://www.deviantart.com/topicality)Dancing Business Feline:icontopicality:
A bandwagon that has been turned to a charity!
What started as innocent fun to use Topicality (https://www.deviantart.com/topicality)'s avatar, quickly spread into other deviants to use her avatar :icontopicality: as their own.
Now, Topicality (https://www.deviantart.com/topicality) has made this bandwagon to a charity!
For every deviant that uses her Dancing Business Feline Topicality (https://www.deviantart.com/topicality) as their own avatar, she will donate 50 cents to the ASPCA, The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
Everyone is free to join!
To use her icon:
