Deviation Actions
Um... I wonder how many of you guys are still alive and rockin' here?
I recently read that deviantart is dying (what? again?!) and people are leaving in droves. Really? I have quite the opposite feeling although my perception could be biased as I keep a low profile here.
UPDATE: Speculations aside parallellogic collected some data on deviantart activity over time. As you can see both comments and deviations rates are headed down.

Eclipse vs Classic
First off, I assume DA staff is a professional team and their decisions are based on solid data, design skills and knowledge, understanding trends and community needs. In short, they know what they do. In contrast, agnidevi (https://www.deviantart.com/agnidevi) is just a random dude who happens to use DA for sharing his scribbles, enjoying art and community interaction.
As I understand, DA wants ‘to bring back the big fish’ – professionals, content creators, influencers by providing an appealing modern look and feel, easy to use UI and awesome features. These are good and reasonable intentions. And who the heck would oppose that?
So let’s see how it
Shine | Prover music video
I know everybody has different preferences, but I'd like to share some things I've stumbled upon recently. ;)
「Shine」theme song performed by Leo Ieiri (家入レオ) from Fuji TV drama "The Frog Princess" (カエルの王女さま) aired in 2012:
In contrast,「Prover」by milet have a different vibe with great vocals and performance (and fits pretty well as Babylonia's ED Theme):
Though I'm not a big fan of Russian covers, this K/DA - POP/STARS cover by Sati Akura nail it perfectly:
Sugaan Essena - The Hu Music Video
Well, can you imagine hearing this in Star Wars universe? Awesome mix of throat singing and rock music performed by Mongolian band The Hu.

As far as I can tell, dA is still one of the best sites to post portfolios and archive your work. The tenor of modern culture, however, demands something more immediate than the essentially passive collection of posted art. Most of the dialogue is probably going on at sites like tumblr and twitter. I'd be interested to see how the 'feed' feature has changed this, if at all.
Many people above complain of decreasing quality, but my guess is that this is hardly a new problem. This is a community without any entry barrier, and as such there will always be deviations of the most abominable quality, more as the community grows larger.
