Not for professional/serious artists This website is a bad website for professional artists. There's no quality control, meaning that something bad will get more views than professional-level art. You'll get a lot of porn, fetish art, low effort 'art', spam and even art theft. The new layout (Eclipse) copies Artstation's layout, and there's no way to turn it off. The moderators are lazy and don't consider hiring more people. If you take art seriously, don't use DeviantArt. Try something like Artstation or Pixiv.

DeviantArt is no longer a good program… DeviantArt is no longer a good program for artists to share their creativity. Their policies allow pedophilia and gore content but yet they ban anyone who labels their artwork carefully for older audiences and can't tell the difference between Photoshop and fiction. The app is filled with double standards and the website is no longer a positive environment. Either change the name of the app or shut the whole thing down.

After many years of being member at dA After many years of being member at dA, I've quit more than 4 years ago for good after one disaster layout after another. Not to mention, the owner and the other admins doesn't give a crap about anything and on top of that, they're outright enabling cyberbullying and allowing grotesque pornography and way too many ppl should had been banned forever. Also let's not even mention ai, something that many artists and designers were against it from day one. But really though, Deviantart should have had their website completely shut down for a long time ago. Ut no longer has purpose. Most serious artists has left this website for years.

I joined back in early 2000s due to… I joined back in early 2000s due to illness I was inactive for few years, I logged back in a few days ago and here are my observations. 1: its full of potentially illegal porn or underage anime girls and illegal Ai porn including beastie and furies. there are people who upload deep fakes of celebrities also 2:the DA forums are full of trolls and cyber bullies. when I returned the first thing I was greeted by was some creepy artist : Bartales that posts nothing but creepy images of children. 3:when you report images of minors DA staff ask you for proof as in they want you to prove that the artists uploaded minors before they will do anything which is wrong on so many levels. Avoid like the plague unless you are rolf harriss and if thats the case you are sick.

Enjoy what you want to see, Ignore the rest. I have refined my search parameters on DeviantArt to get what I want to see: Anthropomorphic Foxes and Felines. Realistic, attractive, cute, nude not lewd. I quickly skim past hanging genitals, sex acts, unbelievably huge breasts and unbelievable body building. My preferences may not match yours, but "to each their own".
