Rules of deviantArt

Rule #1- Any single name or thing on dA probably has another version of it with "the hedgehog" in front of it.

Rule #2- If you make an original piece of art chances are you wont get any more then 40 views, Unless you look for friends who like your art.

Rule #3- There isn't a point to have a fan-art area of site because people post their crappy fan-art where-ever, making it very difficult to get views. (refer back to Rule #2)
I realize that in order to become a better deviant I must look at Rules of deviantArt

Deviant Art

A free website (with a paid membership option) where people are able to upload their drawings, paintings, digital art, photos, etc. with virtually no restriction.

It is true that the site has the unfortunate downfall of having superfluous quantities of bad and/or mentally disturbing/sexually deviant artwork, but for the most part it is a very useful site for those who know how to use the search box correctly to find what they want.

It is also home to many creative minds and talented artists, and Deviant Art is not without humor either. Artists like myself mainly draw humorous "cartoons" or comic strips, among other things see Demotivational Posters.
I compose and submit humorous artwork and posters on my main deviant art account.

On my other account I submit erotic and romantic artwork with the appropriate tags so that innocent bystanders are not "traumatized" by my mildly deviant tastes (I am not a furry, and I'm not into tentacle porn or anything illegal).

Deviant Smut Fiend

Usually male but in some cases female. An individual who sits in their basement for hours and hours, looking for porn and watching porn. Once the habit takes over their life they are now a deviant smut fiend.
Hey have you seen Bob around?
No I heard that he became a Deviant Smut Fiend.
Shit man that sucks.
Sure does.

deviantard

A young man or woman (usually with emotional issues) whom seeks attention from like-minded deranged Deviantards by posting 'art' on Deviantart. The Deviantard truly believe that their art will one day make them a famous artist and Deviantards usually delude each other further with this myth by posting comments like... nice crop ... I cried when I looked at this... although the picture is black, I too I see colour. The deviantards best freind is Photoshop. Although over use of photoshop gives the impression of not being a purist photographer (Deviantards avoid this in order to remian a serious artist). The deviantards profile must be creative cliche, for example, in favorite movies they must list films like Donnie Darko, Amelie, Fight Club, American Beuty, Fargo. The movie list has to be artistic otherwise it would destroy the seriousness of the Deviantards work. The more obscure the references of music, artist, the more creative they believe they will look. Devaintards are usualy bi-polar. Bi-polar=creativity. The deviantard sometimes has a thought-provoking tag for when they post comments (tag example: to dream is to live, in my reality I live, I am a dreamer, I am... dreaming). The true Deviantards exist in a world which is removed from the ordinary pressures of real life. Deviantards are now first generation, so when their artistic ideas crumble and they are left as empty tards, we await to see what will become of the Deviantard.
Just posted a black and white photo of a rainbow, entitled 'untitled'. I'm such a Deviantard

Sexual Deviant

Someone whose sexual interests and preferences involve anything but vanilla, oral, or anal sex.
Kyle is a sexual deviant who is known to fuck people's armpits.

Paul is a sexual deviant who likes to sandwich his dong against two lubed up dinner plates and perform a bit of an in-n-out.

Jenny is a sexual deviant who finds sexual pleasure only through wallowing in gooey filthy mud while naked.

deviantart

Website in which people like Bleedman, Snapesnogger, kris-wilson or Purplekecleon's became famous, regardless if their art it's nice or shitty.

Is an art community, in which people registers for uploading pictures. Like fotolog or photobucket, but for art.

Generally good artists that draw original art in there are very unknown and rarely become popular. In the other hand, if you draw Sonic art, Pokémon chibies, or fanart of male guys with a femenine look on their faces there's a huge possibility that you'll be famous.

In general is a good website when you are looking for fanart, or a place for uploading fanart. Tracing is allowed by the admins, but rejected by a good part of the community. And not always the best deviations get to the "daily deviation" prize.

Sometimes is used too for hosting pictured of naked bodies showing their genitals. If is a male guy and the account is found, he will be banned. If is a female, photos will just be marked as "mature".
Yesterday I went to Deviantart. I found inuyasha art.
