Site Update: Sending Valentines

In our continuous effort to improve the DeviantArt experience, we're publishing weekly Site Updates to keep members informed and to gather feedback. Below is a list of recent changes to the site, bug fixes, and feedback that was brought up by members in the last Site Update.

What's New

Valentine's Day Art Exchange 2015

Now's the time to share the love, because the Valentine's Day Art Exchange is in full swing! The "Send a Valentine" button is live, so you can send the digital valentines that deviants have created to your friends and loved ones. The World Map has also been updated to show Valentines being sent in live time!

Check out the Valentine Exchange category and start sending the love, or submit your own for others to share!

Your Feedback

Thank you for the feedback on last week's Site Update! 

• The top 3 mentioned uses for Notes in response to the Discuss topic were roleplaying, exchanging information for commissions/art trades/art requests, and having private casual conversation with friends.
• Deviants also said that they use Notes when planning contests or collaborative events, when contacting individuals on behalf of a Group, and sending Daily Deviation suggestions.

Discuss!

Your Creative Output

How often do you create art? Do you make sketches or rough draft work regularly, or do you restrict yourself to creating what you consider to be completed works?
