so it seems deviantart is a super scam. they own everything that you post which means if you look around your art is no longer yours but part of the deviantart conglomerate of stolen from the artist works. i am removing all of my deviations that are valuable to me from deviantart. you people wanna see my work? email me. revy.ace@gmail.com

i would like to hear from you all. your friendships and art is valuable to me as a believe in building up artists. but this is NOT the place. and this is NOT the setting. in all honesty its a scam unless you sell off of DA. they get part of your profit. they get titleship over your pictures. they get copyright on your art. i want my FULL profits if i sell my work. edit out the middleman. its a sham. its a scam. its fulla crap. look around people. the only thing here is a gathering of people who like to draw pretty pictures.

another point i noticed is that DA is bloody expensive. i went to sell at a convention and my best works were worth five dollars. the best artists there sold for no more than twenty dollars for large prints. now that says something as DA often charges twice to three times that. and then part of the money goes to DA and you only see that five to ten dollars left when they done with you.

then comes the other part. they scam you. make you PAY to tell artists what you think of their work in critique. make you pay for a membership so they can STEAL YOUR ART. and thats what they are doing boys and girls plain outright theft. and im suprised we signed up for this site. i beat myself with a hammer of shame. my leros and zaha are my darling creations and i will not have them stolen. neither will i have MY artwork owned by a group of halfwits.

and on the topic of deviants i noticed a huge art theft bash and flame going on recently. its sad. it falls under the category of guilty until proven innocent. and its pathetically cruel. this was a place to RAISE UP AND SUPPORT upstanding artists. and it sux when you see dozens of people gang up on one person over the slightest pretense of art theft. which if i state so boldly... reminds me of the salem witch trials. where dozens of innocents were burned and slaughtered over a mass hysteria. i have seen it happen to dozens of people here and its pathetically cold and cruel. yes i will judge and say pathetic because it shows as much immorality on the part of the flamers as well as the theif. and then the flamers dont realize this very website steals your art from under you. hypocrisy my fellows. hypocrisy.

i have also seen hundreds of dramatists on DA and it pains me. the ignorance abounds. and only you my close friends and watchers.... do i care about. you have been kind to me. your friendship and continued communication is vital to me as i dearly love and esteem and respect you all. but there are many out there who will bash eachother and flame each other. is wrong. its cold. its cruel. its vile. look around people. we were all drawn to this scam. but we were arists or under the pretense of. and to that purpose we are all alike. and yet we combat over anything and everything down to the pretense of what 'art' truly is. art is beauty. art is love. art is creativity in the mind of the creator. in the eye of the photographer. in the brush of the painter. the ink of the drawer.

and sadly we are hoodwinked by these charlatans. so my dear friends i beg you email me. as i see nothing but wrong in this dreadful scam and will not be a part of it. i hope to share art and do business with you over email and to even create my own site perhaps. i will tell you soon.
