guys for those Who don't Know CG Society is closing down, it is one of the big time CG communities which had the whos who of the CG industries. Now I am really worried cause Deviant art might be headed the same way, I don't know how most of you feel but I don't have another art account and everyday my friends tell me to open an instagram now I have been here for a decade which isn't as much as other who have been here from the beginning, But i don't want to see DA go, Those of you Who have given up on DA and feel the site has gotten worse, yes it has but don't give up on DA cause just remember, when DA goes all the artworks and artists you like will be gone and the artists who have a huge following they can create a fan page or what ever but small artists like myself who has no other platform i won't be able to follow alot of the great artists and people i follow. I am sure all of you share my view that when i say that each of us when we see our favorites folder we see how amazing

SO i recently have gotten a core membership for one month and its by some random anonymous person. Whats so special about this with all the new features that DA have added. I really couldn't tell you. How much has anything changed since this new membership? well nothing cause i have seen some new faves and a few old works faved but guess what, the numbers on those works are still the same, yes i have or remember the value casue i am not stupid. I always see which artwork is at what position. so the updates are practically getting mixed up and there is hardly any sort of traffic to my page. i really don't know how many of you have still stayed and enjoy DA, i miss my old friends and with more A.I its just getting annoying. to the point i just look at A.I everywhere and whats the fun in that its the same anime girl in some pose. I miss the days you had to put in hard work and effort to try to achieve something, now we can just write a promt and mention some famous artists name and

Hi guys how are you guys all doing ? I know the Covid hasn't helped anyone but we all have to stay strong and be positive. A thing I have recently noticed is the views comments and interaction on this site has been dropping and dropping fast. i also have been busy with work So i have not been able to post art on a regular basis but do be patient and I will try to upload more. Some things that I have noticed as a cause of concern. !. Less interaction of a artwork and the viewers. 2. The terrible algorithm which has made finding your favorite artists or art categories is now almost impossible 3. Less group invites and posts. 4. Same as before promoting the same artists over and over and over again. Addressing the first one: I don't know why that is but if you guys are all fed up and think boycotting DA and its artists will make the site go back to the old ways well I really don't think so, I want all of you guys who are reading this ask yourself one question and i asked this
