Celebrating Deviousness - January 2016
In Recognition of Exemplary Membership and an Outstanding Spirit of helpfulness and mentoring within the DeviantArt community.
Introducing Miguel-Santos
:iconmiguel-santos:
In my mind, I became a photographer when I was a child. I marveled at our family slideshows, projected onto a white sheet on the wall, in our darkened living room. Those beautiful slices of time, floating in beams of dusty light, cheered by the small crowd at every snap, made me realize how much I wanted to take pictures.
I grew up in the outskirts of Lisbon, Portugal, and I travelled the world through the photographs of great masters. I studied every detail, wondered about their adventures, and dreamed of my own. Now I live in Santa Catarina, in southern Brazil, where I fell in love with nature and its culture too, of course, and I found myself becoming a storyteller through pi

In Recognition of Exemplary Membership and an Outstanding Spirit of helpfulness and mentoring within the DeviantArt community.
Introducing griffsnuff
:iconGriffsnuff:
My name is Tina, and I am a bubbly happy artist from Norway who enjoy sharing and learning more about art. I have been drawing my whole life and it is probably thanks to my mom that I kept on drawing. She has always been my biggest supporter and encouraged me to keep drawing.
I joined DeviantArt in 2005, and that is also were I have met my best friends, learned most about myself and my art. Meeting new people from so many different parts of the world and with so many ideas, is really inspiring to me and has made me work and try a lot of different things through my years, I also worked as a concept artist on Among the sleep and that taught me a lot abou

R.I.P David BowieI don't really have any words right now, I just can't believe it.
I did wonder why, after such a long break he made a new album, turns out that album, Blackstar released on his 69th birthday just two days before his passing was his parting gift to us.  Beautiful, just beautiful.

Unfortunately, the recent price hike has made it so I cannot give as many premiums. However, commissioned artwork was the second most requested prize, and many artists take point commissions.
As a thank you for your patience, 1,000 points have been added to the prize pool that were not part of the original points goal. This allows for an extra 2 premiums.

   Donations for Super GroupHello everyone,
You may have noticed that the front page of Love New Artists has been looking different lately. This is because our group has been degraded from Super Group to a normal one. This means that we can’t do all those fun things for you anymore, like having a great background, changing our lay-out, rename social classes like ‘members’, ‘contributors’, etc, and make unique blogs, amongst other things.
We have looked into getting our group back to Super Group status, but it is too expensive for us as a Group to do so. So, once again we’re asking you for help in the form of donations. The costs of a Super Group membership is 4,796 points for one year.
We, the Staff, of LNA, would be extremely grateful if you are in the position to donate. Whether it’s one point or 100, we would be very happy with anything you’re willing to give us. If you want to help us, you can send your donation right here on this page. If you do, you can count

   AnnaKirsten...No, I disagree!
Just wanted to take a moment to express my sadness about my dA friend AnnaKirsten who passed away Tuesday, January 5, 2016. She was a beautiful soul and I enjoyed the interaction we had over the years here. Please keep her family in your prayers as they mourn the loss. I have placed a few of her art pieces here. She was a VERY talented fractal artist along with photographer.
I particularly love this photo she took--how wonderful that she is actually in the presence of the TRUE LAMB---our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God.

   Happy Holidays from DeviantArt!'Twas the night before Christmas
When all through the site
Not an artist was arting,
Which didn't seem right.
The young deviant's Watch
Was curated with care
In hopes that inspiration
Would soon be found there.
But what to that wondering screen did appear?
No updates for hours.
No holiday cheer!
When before settling down for a long winter's nap
That deviant opened up the DeviantArt Mobile App.
Notifications popped up, and what did they see,
But art gifts galore under a virtual tree!
Then a poem about friendship, written right from the heart,
"Dr. Who Down in Whoville," a mashup fan art.
A speed paint, a watercolor, a "Lord of the Rings" map,
An invitation to Sketch This, in the Autodesk SketchBook app!
That deviant's friends had been waiting by their keyboards with care
For the signal to send all their art gifts out there.
But no
   Notes Search Now Available
One of the most highly requested features is now here: the ability to search notes! Notes search allows you to do things like:
Find all notes you’ve sent to a specific deviantFind all notes from a deviant that contain a keywordSearch for a keyword within a custom folderFind all unread notes that contain a keywordSearch your drafts
To search your notes, simply enter a keyword in the search box. You can also use the advanced search dropdown to filter your search results.

Advanced Operators
Advanced operators can help you narrow your search:
subject:keyword — Find notes with a keyword in the subject. Example: subject:commission.
body:keyword — Find notes with a keyword in the body. Example: body:painting.
" " (quotes) — Search for an exact phrase. 


Status Update Notifications
Starting today, status updates posted by deviants you watch now appear in your notifications. This has been a popular request from deviants who actively post status updates. With status updates in notifications, it will ensure that more of your watchers see your posts.
Like other notifications, status updates can be viewed in list view (text only) or grid view (full thumbnails). Status update notifications can also be stacked, which groups notifications by deviant together.
Make Your Status Update Stand Out
Adding a deviation to your status updates is a quick way of making it stand out to your watchers. Simply add a deviation by pasting a link to a deviation in your Status Update, or use the "Add Media" button.

We would like to encourage the community to join in on this project by simply going through the Daily Deviations page and collecting some of their favourite pieces of art within a journal titled "My Daily Deviation Highlights"! We hope this project will help spread awareness and love for Daily Deviations and our fellow deviant artists!

   APN Adventures, The Round-Up
Hello everyone!
I would apologize for the frequent journal submissions... But we're doing 10 days of art features to end 2015, so who can complain about that?! Thank you to all of my friends and supporters on DA who have made 2015 a hugely fun year for me. From featuring art, hosting chat events, becoming the APN CV, and getting to know new people nearly every day... It's been quite an adventure! Here's to hoping the next 12 months are just as fulfilling.
As we speed toward 2016, I wanted to share the entire year of APN Adventure features with you in this journal. Feel free to go through and explore the many weeks of superb, talented nature photography that was submitted to DA!
        
   Thank You Kovowolf
What can I say about Amber that you don't already know? KovoWolf has been a part of the Community Volunteer team for over 4 years and during her time infected everyone with her positive attitude and love for the DA community.  While she spent most of her time representing the Anthro community, you would have also seen her active in the forums, leading countless projects and hosting an array of community contests.  She's also solely responsible for making my meeting logs look pretty :D
While we're going to miss her boundless energy on the team, I know she's not going to be far but please take a moment to say 'Thank You' to this dynamic deviant!
We love you :heart:


   Find me again as Angelo tldr; I'm spyed but I'm angelo now. 
Not as big a transition as Caitlyn Jenner, but boy do we both feel better about life. 
I've grown past the stage where I need a pseudonym; I really want to be myself. I'm sure you understand.
I created my online name and persona a long time ago. So long ago, that I no longer identify with it completely. I was Spyed for five years before DeviantArt came to exist, 15 years ago, so you can only imagine how much I've changed in 19 years.
I have been building communities for that long. Imagine that.
Video game boards, ANSI/ASCII boards, WAREZ boards, programming boards, MP3 boards and ultimately the ultimate Art board. Being Spyed was awesome. I will still be spyed here, I'll update with official things from time to time. But if you want to see my more regular activity you'll find it on angelo
It just feels right to do this. I've finally had a chance to really admit that to myself and it feels great. 
I've been facing thi


What's going on with DeviantArt?There's a lot of changes going on with DeviantArt, and we recognize that this is irritating. We don't want it to be irritating, but unfortunately we don't have a choice.
DeviantArt must transform. The live product is failing to interest as many new members as it used to. We've identified many of the reasons for this, and we're making transformative changes to help new users adopt DeviantArt. We especially want new users to come in and Watch Deviants, and begin conversing about Art. Ultimately we want new Deviants to post Deviations and contribute to the community. DeviantArt is meant as the place to support people in the world as they become more creative in their lives. As a community, we represent the journey of being a more creative person. 
The current state of DeviantArt isn't adequately communicating our value to new members. And the products they are using confuse them. We've interviewed new members on the phone, in surveys, via email. We know what the issues are.
To fix th
   Why move Watch out of Notifications?In my last journal, What's going on with DeviantArt, there was a lot of great conversation back and forth and over 400 comments. I read every single one, and my responses started to become repetitive so I stopped.
One of my favorite questions was, "Why do you even want to move Watch out of Notifications? I don't understand why this is so important." So I wanted to address that head on:
Answer: Moar Power. Easier to Use.
The real project here is that we're switching to a Watch that is powered by the same/similar systems Browse is powered by, making it possible to see your Watch as Newest, Undiscovered, Popular, filter by Category, search by keyword, filter by Shop items, Commission items, etc. MUCH MOAR POWERFUL. 
Here's the disconnect:
1. The experience of Browse needs improvement, too.
Browse needs functionality that reinforces why we're all here; To engage
