#StopSOPA - Jan 18 - Web Blackout + Response to dAPlease See Edit 10 at the bottom for Response to dA update
Hello Everyone!
Please Comment and Fave to show your support. Please feel free to ask questions as well.
Consider sharing with your watchers as well!
For those of you wondering what SOPA/PIPA are, take a look at this video http://fightforthefuture.org/pipa/
As a protest of #SOPA and #PIPA (The Stop Online Piracy Act and Protect IP Act) two pieces of legislation that are up for debate once again on January 18, 2012, I will be blacked out from all my websites, deviantART included. What does this mean?
"On January 18, between 8am and 8pm EST (or 13:00 and 01:00 UTC), Reddit will be blacking out their website in protest of SOPA and PROTECT IP. We request all website administrators worldwide - and especially those running large user-content websites - to black out their website at the same time, to voice their opposition of SOPA and PROTECT IP.

Watcher Contest - Win Points + Features + ThanksHey Everyone!
So, I have been absolutely amazed by all of my amazing watchers

So for the next few days, I want to send a thank you back to you all... I originally planned to do this during Valentines Day, but other stuff got planned then... So let's do it now

I want to thank a ton of you guys! So here is how I am going to thank 33 of you!

(Yes there's a lot more then 33, but that's all I can do for now...)
- Give 25 of my watchers a 5 piece journal feature
- Give 5 of my watchers a 5 piece front page feature (my front page, for a month)
- Give 3 of my watchers 100

So what do you have to do to get one of these prizes? Just three simple things:
1. As this is a thank you to my watchers, you must be watching me (If you aren't right now, you can still watch me

)
2. Then simply comment on this journal. Say anything you'd like!
3. Lastly, Fave this journal!
This will end February 26, 2012 at 11:59:59 P

You Watchin'? Check in - Watcher Thank Yous+PointsHello Deviants!

I would like to thank a few of my watchers for watching me and making 2013 a year to remember. So I will randomly be giving out:

100

25 Features

5 Selection features (I will choose a selection from your gallery to feature)
All you have to do:

This also doubles as my watcher-check in. I feel like this is more fun than just a boring poll :shrug:

25+ Ways To Improve dA - Discuss! Read!Hello Everyone
This collection of 25+ ideas I have come up with (or am reiterating) is made for all of you. Please comment, share, fave, and suggest changes. All of these are BASE IDEAS. I hope that they will be moved forward by deviants… Writing this took nearly 3 hours. So, please respect any typos or mistakes I may have made. I also wrote some of this at 2 AM last night so I might be a little

Thanks for understanding

To the Staff who may read this... Thank you for taking a look. I know it's long and some may be "ridiculous", but I hope it helps.
I have a number of clear messages here that I really think are important.
Optional
Community involvement
Professional level
These three simple ideas are what I believe will really bring this all together. Each of these ideas will likely embody one of those.
The last thing looking forward is K.I.S.S. an idea presented to me as a freshman in high school. Keep It Simple Stupid. I especially am looking at sta.sh for this. Let'

The Neglected Importance of the Online CommunityWhat is the Worldwide Online Community?
The Worldwide Online Community is simply a group of people from a wide variety of countries and continents who come together to share their skills, experience, and/or love for a subject. Online communities are a fairly new faction and are not fully understood, their importance is neglected and may not reach their full potential until the next generation incorporates them more and more. It wasn't until the '90s that the Internet or World Wide Web really became a part of the culture, but in less then 20 years its impact has changed society from top to bottom.
In order to really delve into the importance of the worldwide online community, one must first define what it is. There are hundreds of different definitions of what an online community is, but this statement is generally accepted throughout these definitions.
Worldwide online communities are groups of people who join together on the Internet with a common int

Winners of One Word StoryHey Guys,
I always enjoy a good story, and in the mood to start one up!
So, using just 1 word in your comment, with no consecutive comments... Make a story.
I will give a few points away to participants between now and Sunday at 8 AM EST, nothing major but something to add to the fun.
Rules: Be nice.
You may comment more then once, but not in a row.
Words that you want to reply to someone else may be in brackets or parentheses [comment] or (comment)
Words like and, is, the, etc. all count as a word.
TO BEGIN:
