Don't put your stuff up on DA. This site isn't for artists anymore, it's a cash grabbing well and everything you post here is just monetary fodder for a dying site to extort every last cent they can get out of you.
Are you on Sheezy? If so, do you have a link? I'd love to follow you on there
https://sheezy.art/alradeck now I do!
Oh fantastic!! Yeah I gave up getting in through the 10 slots thing, too quick for me XD I got in via one-time donation to their PayPal. Welcome aboard!
same, same, haha
I keep trying to hop on there but they won't let me innn, haha
Sad to see another great artist leave, but when "law" becomes oppressive resistance becomes duty.
if you still see these comments, do you have any recommendation of one of your other linked sites for artwork? I've seen a lot of artists migrating to other sites but I haven't seen any feedback on how those other sites actually are.
while I am sad to see you leave DA, I understand your concerns regarding AI and the site. It has gotten so bad that now I tend to automatically assume most art is AI generated unless the artist mentions what media or software they've used. I am afraid AI won't be going away, but we can do our best to fight it. As for DA specifically, I've been soured on it for many years. There were times the admins and moderators pulled immature stuff. I remember way back when one faked their own death, then there was some disagreement that lead to one being fires, which in turn caused the mods to turn to the community to take sides and fight.i still haven't forgotten one admin using the R word and seeing no issue with it when I brought up that people in the disability community like myself find it insulting and dehumanizing. That has taken most of my spark from uploading much of my work besides the fact you have to be very well established for anyone to take notice. As for the AI work and related I've grown so sick of pin up figures that have what look like a pair of inflated balloons on their chest, that I just block the so called artists so I don't have my feed cluttered with such stuff.
