Keeping occupied is good for wellness. At times like these where options for physical activity can be limited, having things to do for mental and emotional health matters. One way to maintain the mind and spirit is to immerse yourself in art you enjoy, and as such we’d like for you to do exactly that! We’d like to hear from you in the comments on this journal! Please answer the following questions using deviations! Copy and paste links to deviations into the comment box, or use the “Add Image” feature beneath the comment box: Share art by one of your favorite artists on DeviantArt. What’s inspired you to create recently? If you could go anywhere right now, where would it be? Share art from someone else who you’d like to answer these questions! Here are answers from @Heidi as an example! Share art by one of your favorite artists on DeviantArt. @singv0gel is new to DeviantArt, but in the short time I’ve been following her, I’ve been charmed by a number of her watercolor deviations.

Celebrate deviantART's 14th Birthday! by Heidi, journal
Celebrate deviantART's 14th Birthday!
Fourteen years of existence marks a period of growth, change, and introspection — an era of creativity and emotion that leads to long-term personal and artistic development. As we celebrate deviantART's 14th birthday, we want to thank all of you for joining in on the journey of growth and development, from the deviants who have been here from the start to the deviants who are starting out their deviantART experience today.

Now Playing - Music Player Overlay in Mishira!!
A tutorial for how to get a "now playing" text to use in your livestreams! This is faaar more easy to do in OBS, but as I love to suffer and Mishira's GUI is nicer... Let's try to do this with Mishira.
1. Download your tool that will give you a "nowplaying.txt" file. Some examples that can be used for this are SMG and Essential Now Playing. Essential is free, so let's go with that!

(Direct link to the download!)
The bad thing about Essential is that it doesn't support Korean/Japanese/Chinese/Arabic/etc characters at the moment, so songs with those will be showing up as bunc
The DeviantArt Timeline entries from the past few months have discussed how we’re focusing on user experience for DeviantArt and ways to make the site more intuitive. In this journal, we'd like to kick off a discussion on another big design-related milestone: to improve the profile experience on the site, mobile web, and mobile apps.

Some perspective on 'core membership' by DamaiMikaz, journal
Some perspective on 'core membership'
I know this is probably gonna be a long journal, but if you manage to read all the way through the end you might perhaps even get to learn a few things.
Furthermore I want to state that my opinion on the matter is pretty much neutral. I'm not with DeviantArt on the matter, nor am I against them. I just want to make people see things from the perspective of a 27 year old woman that has been in the web industry for the last decade.
The internet is not free
First of all, and most important thing to realize, is that the internet is not free. Everyone who lived through the early ages of web 1.0. (old people like me) knows that it costs money to
