Your Feedback


Thank you for the feedback on last week's Site Update! Here's some of the feedback you left for us.
  • In response to the Discuss topic, some deviants said that their relationships with other deviants were generally friendships, although some other deviants mentioned it being business relationships, and a few deviants mentioned romantic relationships as well!
  • In most cases, deviants met one another through shared interests or because they create using the same medium as one another. Some deviants mentioned meeting one another through a Group, and Lyricanna mentioned FelesTacita meeting them through the Random Deviant button.
  • Silverti and Nortya suggested a feature that you could use to find other deviants based on shared interests, creation methods, and other things.

Discuss!

I see people featuring their own comments on other users pages but it doesn't work for me. I can only feature comments I make on my own page :(
