It's official! I'm a little late with this news, but DeviantART has achieved a huge milestone this week. On February 2nd, they received their 10 millionth submitted deviation! To check out who submitted it, and what they won, check out DeviantArt.com

ye, i like deviantart but they could have made it a lot more easy to navigate around and to find stuff, it isnt very user friendly

I agree. For such a huge site, it isn't that user friendly.

But it definately amounts to something when you have 10 Million submissions!

Mad respect

how would you suggest making a site as large as deviant art more user friendly? WITHOUT making you download 200kb pages

[jonno]

well whatever you want to download on there its always where you least suspect it, even if you do follow the pages to where its 'supposed' to be, things are everywhere, there isnt really and sync to it, if u get what i mean

Yea i feel that too. Every single brush i need i get at deviantart and i get much more, dey're real cool. I also however feel that they gotta make it more user-friendly, like if i want brushes its so hard to find, now I know wer everything is, but at 1st i didn't know diddlysquat.

they actually do a fantastic job organizing everything....think about it...10 MILLION!!! (its actually closer to 11 by now ) that is hardly even fathomable! they do have some issues with limited categories in the resources section, but they do an amazing job keeping that all together....

just think about that number for a minute and you'll realize the immense size....10 MILLION!!!


MILLION!

amazing. Damn. I wonder how much they pay hosting with all those hits.
$200/month maybe?

[ThaBirdman]

its prob alot, but think how much they make from ads (for non paying members), member subscriptions, and print sales! (they get 90% i think from print sales!)

they DEF have enoug to pay for expensive hosting
