2021 - Commissions Open! [Updated Pricelist]

1 min read

Hello to whoever is still active here! I just wanted to make an official announcement; my commission prices have been updated (as has my TOS) and they are open!

This is the highest I've ever raised them though, so I do hope they are reasonable, fair, and proportionate! (mutuals... if you have advice/feedback it is very welcome aaa)

The layout has also been updated so hopefully it's a bit easier to read... I always worry about being too wordy/having too much info ;;

anyways! Your support is always very much appreciated <3

SoundofSilence Movement - Gone for a Few Days

4 min read

Hi guys!

I just wanted to let you know I won't be logging on from May 1st until May 4th, as I'm participating in #thesoundofsilencemovement
You are still free to reach me on Discord: Cloudsteps and Twitter: SnuggleSnakey anytime!

---

I try not to complain too much about eclipse or to pick sides/become extremely on one side or the other--I've noticed stuff being passed around that's been exaggerated or isn't entirely true, etc, which happens when emotions run high. DeviantART has been a life-changing place for many of us and so we care about these big changes that are happening! Or at least I do, haha. I've seen a decent amount of updates come from dA, and each one came with a fair share of protesting and complaining--there will never be a time when no one is upset. And each of those updates has come and passed, I've been okay with all of them! I kind of expected Eclipse to be another one of those "not as big a deal as people make it" kind of thing, and I was willing to give it a shot, especially when I knew it was still in beta mode, still being fixed and tested.

And there are some good and cool things coming from this update! I remember seeing the first announcement about it and being very excited--it looked pretty cool.

However, there still are things I'm concerned about.

-Whether all the bugs we've seen in Eclipse will be fixed once they're not trying to handle two versions of dA at once, or whether those bugs are in Eclipse itself and they're simply pushing us into an unfinished site.

-How groups I'm a part of are going to hold up in these changes

-How deviantart plans to make money with no good reasons to buy a premium membership? I'm glad I stopped buying mine a long time ago so I could get used to not having it.

-Sta.sh Writer going away.

-The visual/mechanical aspects of eclipse are also kind of stressful to me, just because of such the drastic changes.

-Deviantart has always been filled with inactive accounts, people leaving/etc, but sooo many people are leaving now and i worry how that will affect everything here. I'm glad I made a Twitter account recently, haha.

But most importantly, it's the effect this has had on the community. The fact that nobody feels listened to--we all feel ignored, and it's made worse by the fact that those hurt feelings become more negativity that lead to yelling at/complaining about/hatred towards general things instead of just the problems. And I'm sure the staff feels overwhelmed, unappreciated, and yelled at for things they didn't do... that's at least how I would feel. The amount of people leaving or fully against this update has caused just a dark mood to come over this whole site (and it's not just because of Eclipse's Dark Mode... haha.)

---

But anyway! I'm standing with the SoundofSilence because of the fact that I think it has brought some hope to people. It's seemed to help them feel like they can still be listened to, they can maybe even make a difference. They can at least stand up one more time for a website that is full of so much memories and growth. My SoundofSilence is a moment of silence in honor of the old deviantart, which I love, which helped me to grow in ways I could never imagine, which filled a hole in me I didn't realize could be filled, especially not with my own creations. My SoundofSilence is to put a stop to the shouting, complaining, arguing, and anxiety I've seen by this... if only for a moment. It's to emphasize that we are artists, and if there's one thing we'll do, it's have our voice heard!

I do not plan on leaving deviantART. I will see you all soon,

~City ♥
