DeviantART V6 is here.
With a new deviated look.
Saturday, July 12, 2008 by Snowman | Discussion: WinCustomize News
Our friends over at dA have busted their behinds to make yet another version of their great site.
Countless hours/days/weeks/months have gone into makeing the site even more convenient to use, and I know alot of us do check the site more or less every day.
I know, I do. 
Listing all the changes would be pure madness and probably fill most of the frontpage, so you'll just have to go see for yourselves

You need to actually browse the wallpaper gallery for that.

When will they learn that simplicity is everything!

if you wanted me to experience the site the way it was "intended~", well... you sort of missed the perfect opportunity to do so when making this new version, otherwise what's the point?
anyone else find themselves missing jark?
i suppose though, i do love the footer, my problem with it is i think it should either be the header or be the home page itself, it's the only thing i want to see on the current layout and i don't like scrolling down to the bottom every time. it would also be cool to customize the footer to add more channels to it as we were able to before.
oh well. =/

DeviantArt is good for some unique wallpapers (e.g. photography, Vista/OS X wall mods, ect.) and some simple, minimalistic skins. I find stuff there that I would never see on Wincustomize (or anywhere else for that matter).
It just shows you how HUGE the skinning/graphics community is!
WinCustomize is still the best, though...

First off.. I shouldn't have to block something.. I should have to log into it to see it.. and secondly.. What about all the lil kids, older folks, not so PC savvy that don't even know there are ways to block this stuff from their account, or for those that dont even HAVE an account.. I think It's an awful thing that DA continues to put nudity on their Main pages... Male or female.
I shudder to think how many underage children have opened DA to see some guys chopper as a Daily Dev.
I think it's ridiculous.

Well, it's not really mine... it's some other guy's, but it's pretty cool.

Had to copy the link, open a new tab, and manually insert it....clicking on the link = fail.

Anyways, I like the new Message Centre on DA. Found it much easier to work with.

Yep....
Devart is an art site....and depicting the human form, clad or not is an artform.
The only valid 'screening' should be a header page warning prospective browsers/visitors that 'this site contains nudity'.
Other than that censorship/restriction of content should only be about inherent legal boundaries [eg. unlawful depiction of child nudity, etc].
Anyone with a history of Fine Art education, etc. should not have a problem with nudity.....
First nude I ever drew [life drawing] was 36 years ago. [yes, we had them then, too]...

I have no problem with tasteful artistic nudes (=Pelicanh has a nice gallery of these)...but the myspace-style "hey look at my hoo-ha" is just wrong and tacky on so many levels.

You've never seen any questionable deviations on DA, Jafo?
I've come across *many* since I first joined in 2001 and I'm all for nudity in art (I've done life drawing myself) but (here's the age-old question) where's the line between art and porn?

Oh yes....I made a particular point with one's removal too....crossed the 'iffy' lines of 'child-exploitation'.....the same issue currently a hot topic in Oz, lately....
