i'm really glad i kind of petered out of using dA a while ago, but this is fucking ridiculous. now i can't see any reason to go back to using it.

Dear god, the level of horrible here. /deletes my account.

[ormery]

it is kind of incomprehensible, isn't it

[pellucere]

....That is really gross on dA's part, ugh. There is no conceivable excuse for any of that shit.

I'm glad I've already moved over to Tumblr for art posting. :[

HOW IS TUMBLR FOR THAT, BTW

I HAVE BEEN CONSIDERING IT

[pellucere]

Uhhhhhh pretty okay I guess? It doesn't do comments at all like dA or LJ, which is mildly confusing, but posting goes fast, especially in comparison to dA. It can do a slideshow-type 'photoset' (like so) if you want to post several pictures in the same picture post, or if you don't like that you can do a text post and embed several pictures in that, like in an LJ post. (I think that with photosets you can't save the images to your HD or click on them to enlarge though.) It's got tags and a search function, which could conceivably be useful for organization.

IDK, I just like it for art postings because Wordpress and Blogspot intimidate me into never posting and you can make a Tumblr still look reasonably professional (without it being scary).

I'd think it would be nice, just because of exposure. Things can spread like wildfire over there.

(ALSO I WOULD GET TO REBLOG AND HEAP LOVE ON YOUR ART I mean um.)

Woooooow.... Now I'm really glad I never use mine...
