FLICKR!

Fri Mar 13, 2009, 10:43 PM
After four years and three different accounts, I have finally realised that I actually hate deviantART. Godforsaken website! So I've moved to Flickr because it is to devART as Facebook is to MySpace: twice the user-friendliness and half the teenage pretension. This account shall be pretty much abandoned henceforth, so please look at my Flickr gallery and ignore everything on this site. Sporadic uploadings of my photography can be perused in a ridiculously unchronological order HERE.

So long and thanks for all the fish!

Hi! Sorry if I sound kind of hostile in my rejection of dA, I just don't like it because

1. The interface seems messy to me- not very aesthetically pleasing or easy to navigate.
2. It's a closed community, so it's you can't use it to create an online portfolio that's easily available to the wider world, and also the general vibe of this website is... how to say... heirachical? I find it kind of... pretentious, personality-based stuff, rather than than just about appreciating and critiquing art and photography.
3. I also prefer that Flickr content is more exclusively photographic- while I like tradtional art and drawing on dA there's always a huge amount of tacky anime drawings and crappy sketches taking up my screen when I log on. Good for some, but not my style.
4. Flickr has a quicker load time on my computer.

That said, there are some lovely people on deviantART and I've had some good times. It's just time to move on :).

Hey!
There are a lot of things that I don't like in DA too eg.[link]

I don't like this sweet oh and ah.
And thanks, thanks, thanks etc.

the most popular coment is this is awsome or grate or cool.

But sometimes I met here someone who've got very good works. And I can talk with this person, and I like it.

Good luck beautiful girl at the back of beyond.
I don't know it is correctly.
