Artist's Comments

I dare you all...to take a step back, and stop being all political about everything. People are getting so worked up. It's goofy.
I feel bad for Jark, but I don't think he wants people to quit deviantart because of what's happened.
So yeah. That's what my previous "He wants you" picture was about, but it seemed few people got it. x--x
A quick sketchi thing. 2 hours.

***More clarification.

I've read all of it, and both sides are full of propaganda. I don't know what to think, so I'm not making any big judgments about either side.
This 'make popular artists more popular' bit is a misinterpretation that people seized and spread around. When I read those 'scaling the deviants' journals, it seemed to me that he was talking about how popular people had become popular so far. He was pointing out what all the popular people had in common, and what they had done to become popular. Basically..."Hey. If you want to be popular, try doing what these popular artists did. Be active, submit polished work frequently, and have a lot of the work be unique." He was giving tips to anybody that was struggling to get noticed.
If I'm thinking of the wrong journal, then please show me where he talked about a plan to make popular people more popular.
Making popular people more popular is not part of "The Company's " evil scheme.
What they HAVE done wrong is discharging Jark+founders so suddenly and without explanation.

Neither side will give answers. They just give noble sob stories...beating around the bush with propaganda.
I must admit, I lean more towards Jark’s side of the story…and I appreciate all that he has done for deviantart.

With so much propaganda floating around, I don't think it is wise for people to let themselves get so worked up about all this. Nobody really KNOWS the truth. Until I know the truth, I'm not going to get my panties all tied up in a knot. I'm not going to promote the destruction of the deviantart community by joining one side or another. Yes....deviantart is splitting, tearing apart into two feuding factions. Instead, I'll continue doing my best to support the WHOLE community…the community I found when I first got here. I'll do my best to keep posting things people smile at, and to keep commenting on others' work.

kool drawing. I agree with your views :D
Cute and good point. I did the community bit not really to get him reinstated but just to you know, try to see if we could pull everyone together over something. I think that it's time to move off the Jark thing and look towards pulling everyone back together and moving on.

Don't expect to win, expect to grow. Improvement is greater than accolades.
I'm in total agreement with you. Great art btw too.

Show me the meaning of being loved. Not some fake love from an illusion in the mind.
I just came on to DA a few days ago, so I don't really know that much about the whole issue but... I will say, this is a great place, and people should love not hate :giggle:

I say, if there was internal struggle, love both and let it go.... but I dun really know so I could be wrong!

:boogie:

Anyway, nice work, very community spirit of you!

Smoochi!

The digital world has chewed me up, and spit me out.
What remains will stay, but I will go.
I was never planning on leaving over jark. I believ this is a great place for me as an artist to get my work known and to see other artists whose works may inpsire me into different mediums.besides jarks a big boy he'll be fine I do like your piece, very nice and the colors are great. the face comes off a bit innocent for the body but other than that-it's a damn good piece but there's no way Id wanna be a moderator. lol Been there-done that.
i agreee with ya!! nice pic!! XD

Yeah.. I'm over the Jark thing. Sure, it was a big loose(sp? I'm brain-dead...), but people shouldn't be like: BRING JARK BACK, when I bet not even half of them new he was a deviant. I agree with ye, nillia!

Great job! I agree. Even if he got fired, jark still helped create the community. I don't think having it fall apart by people quiting the site was what he had in mind! :giggle: :+fav:

^^;; I agree totally. But then, I haven't been on DevART long enough to get involved in the politics...
