mhhhh....slurpVi auguro delle feste all'insegna della sensualità e della perversione ù_ù spero che questo disegno riaccenda i vostri...bollenti spiriti (consigliata la visione con un sottofondo di sassofono).
Spero vi piaccia il diavoletto pelosetto e smilzo mezzo ignudo, ho pensato che l'angioletta tettona non sarebbe stata apprezzata. Sapete, troppe tette, troppo gnocca, che schifo...!
Andate e procreate pensando a questo disegno focosissimo.

10 Myths About IntrovertsI've been browsing through Web today while doing a little research and I've found an interesting article from musician Carl King, which I think is worth reading.
...Why?
Well, being focused inwards rather than outwards is quite a common thing among people with artistic inclinations*, so I think I can find quite a few people here who'd be interested to read about what it means being one and also what are misconceptions that people have about Introverts - which I think the author got relatively well.
Also, I don't think that it's too much of a shocker if I'd admit to being an Introvert myself and rather big one at that (but it's best to view Introversion and Extroversion as a continuum - it's not that there's a fine line that separates one from another, people can be more or less Introverted or Extroverted).
Still, even among people closest to me I think there are things they're not getting about what does it mean being Introverted... heck - there are things I myself didn't realize and k

Common mistakes for first time comic artistsMisskittyoooo's most common critiques
Once ever couple weeks I get a note with someone asking me for a critique on their comic and asking for suggestions on how to improve. I usually end up replying with some 4 page reply linking tutorials, redlining pages and the whole sh-bang. I started to notice that most of the people I give advice to all have the same common mistakes. These are going to be very basic points for beginners or strugglers, and if after reading this you still want help, of course I am always available to give you personalized advise through notes or in the chats.
Like I said, these is just my observations and advise (opinion or fact). Take them or leave them.
1. Bubbles – they are usually overcrowded, difficult to read, using bad fonts or font sizes
2. Paneling - usually no timing to speak of, crowded, difficult to read, or needing instruction on where to start reading
3. Interest – a lot of the tim

DA's Insular Taste PhenomenonIt's been quite a while since I wrote a preachy "THINK ABOUT YO' ART"-type journal, and some of my newer watchers may not know that this is a particular(ly annoying) habit of mine. This is a subject I've had on my mind for quite some time for a number of reasons, and it's recently coalesced into a semi-soluble form so here we go. (As an aside- this journal does have some recycled ideas from a previous post of mine, but obviously I hadn't really said everything I wanted to on the subject.)
It's no mystery that I love this website. I came in at the tail end of the pre-critique wonder years, when the internet discovered and exploited that, yes, we don't always produce the highest quality art here. There's a lot of unpleasantness directed towards DeviantArt. At RISD, I made a point to never mention that I had an account here, because of the looks of disgust I would get haha and people would think about me differently. It was

Smaller dA thumbnail scriptWant to get rid of the absolutely horrendous recent dA update of ugly, massive, unorganized, unprofessional thumbnails that I turned off beta to escape from but IT SOMEHOW STILL FOUND ME???
Just install this amazing new browser script written by `rotane, which not only shrinks the thumbnails back to a reasonable size, but also gets rid of the awkward light-background problem for wide deviations.

New Thumbnails + Opinions

Only beta testers can see it yet. But I just wanted to share my opinion about it and would also like to know yours.

Ok... so I personally don't like it.

First of all, those are really big, it may be better for people with higher screen resolution but to me they look huge and it take longer to scroll and see everything. I think there should be an option where people can choose if they want to browse with normal or big thumbnails.

Also, on deviations with transparent backgrounds, on the thumbnails the backgrounds are not transparent anymore.

I also don't like how everything is now congested. I liked when everything was aligned and clean, it was easier to browse and easier on the eyes, and also faster to look at. This + the bigger thumbnails, it just got terrible to browse and it don't make me feel like looking at the front page anymore. I just look at the first few deviations at the top now, and that's also what most people are going to see too, giving less exposure to other deviations that are lower on the page.

This is just my opinion, but I would also want to know what you guys think about it.

Agreed.
Don't like it.
Want the small thumbs back, at 120 per page, at least as an option.

At first I didn't like it, but now I do.

*Miss-Mccookies Apr 29, 2012

I like it, but I did zoom out on my browser a bit to make them a little smaller. But I think they line up better and are a bit more neat than the old ones.
