Don't gift me dA Core!
This gallery has been shadow banned by dA, effectively blocking most my art with content flags without even notifying me. So don't give them any money.
I appreciate the gesture, but with how dA's UI and browsing functionality works, it is pretty much worthless if not painful for me to use it. I only stop by to post here. Just enjoy.
If you want to support me donate to my paypal. If you cannot then it's no big deal.
I've gone over this before in this journal. http://deviantart.com/buxom/journal/Using-dA-takes-too-much-effort-843153957
Fuck it
It was always obvious. I just didn't want to associate the accounts with each other.
I made Buxom to have a gallery with just human stuff to not isolate those who don't like furs too much. However being coy about it is really limiting myself with that approach.
I'll just draw what I like and upload to the account that is appropriate.
Updated to allow full download
When you find out that all of your latest uploads don't let people download the full res version! Why is that not a default?! Why won't it remember the settings?
You all can download stuff fine now.
Using dA takes too much effort.
It looks like the Watch section is completely unusable. I don't like endless scrolling, any scrolling for that matter, and I can't bulk delete watched submissions or activity on my own page.
It shouldn't take time to load thumbnails and thumbnails shouldn't take up so much of the page. Not to mention there is so much dead space now. This floaty, bulky UI is not efficient and only gives me a migraine.
I'll still upload. However, deviantArt isn't used for actually browsing art anymore. They actually made it harder to use than Twitter.
According to this adult material refers to "real life" and illustrations including nudity are still allowed.
I've seen this before and people complained about it hard online. Its just that Tumblrites are making a bigger stink about it and not understanding the fine print. Platforms have gotten bigger and more popular so bigger stinks.
Yes the algorithm makes horrible, awful mistakes. Some pics that look fleshy will be easier to find automatically and tagged incorrectly than discolored characters in literal porn. Heck porn that is drawn will be mistaken as real life because the algorithm is trash. This is Tumblr we're talking about, where its search engine is shit and people don't tag their posts properly anyways.
Another thing I noticed is that artists relied too much on the site to post art and have it posted nowhere else. You shouldn't have used Tumblr as your primary gallery. It wasn't viewer friendly anyways.
Jumping to the "safety" of Twitter (instead of using an actual gallery site) is from frying pan to fire.
My previous Tumblr journal:
Tumblr = Glorified Flooding of SpamSo I must know. Why?
Why do so many artists start posting there and none of it makes it to their art gallery here? A lot of artists I love start posting complete works there and neglect this site that simply has a better gallery and message system. They don't post everything they have despite how complete it is.
I'd move there but I've never encountered a UI system that gave me such a migraine until Tumblr. From how impossible it is to find something to how many clicks, wait times, loading, reclicking I have to do to find the top message of a list of comments or even get to someone's page.
Then there's the reblogs. There's only so much I can take from that until someone reblogs their own blogs (morning/night reblog) and that just pushes me over. It could easily be fixed if everyone tagged their stuff properly but no one does. It could EASILY be fixed if people don't reblog their own stuff because there's a feed that I can just scroll back further for.
Just imagine DeviantArt if all you
