Seniority Announcements - January 2013

This article marks the latest additions to the dizzy height of Senior members in our community. With just over 1000 deviants holding the highly saught after ` -- it's clearly a moment that deserves recognition.
:faq29:
So what does it take to become a Senior? That's a question many have asked and have never really been able to get a straight answer on. Some have gained Seniority as a thank you for their time spent as a Volunteer, or to recognise their contribution to a particular project or collaborative action. Some have gained Seniority because of their community spirit, providing help and assistance to many other deviants and taking time out to promote the work of others in the community. 
Some people have received Seniority because of their artistic endevours, having a positive influence on their peers by sharing resources, providing constructive criticism and by being a voice that stands out above the many other

As the old year begins to fade into the sunset, it is customary to reflect on the passing year and make plans for the upcoming one. Some do this in the form of resolutions, some people make action plans, some people just swing into the new year the same way they swung out of the old one

Whatever way you intend to welcome in 2013, I hope you're surrounded by love and that you do it safely!
I've been reflecting on the year and like many, with some focus on the unimaginable events of the last few weeks. Specifically, the shooting in Newtown. I know that it's "human nature" to want to find

Love the Stache!Hi everyone

Movember is quickly coming to a close and the shave-off events are eagerly awaited by our Mo'Bros who have suffered through all sorts of mo-mishaps over the last 28 days. For those of you that have participated, I thank you and ask you to make the last two days really count and reach out to your friends and families for those last minute donations.
For the rest of you, I am making this final push on behalf of all of the deviantART Sta.sh teams to request that you reach into your pockets and make a donation, regardless of how big or small, to the Movember effort. I realize how hard this may be considering you're likely broke after Black Friday and Cyber Monday, but should you find a dollar or two - we would greatly appreciate your donation

The amount isn’t important, every little bit helps Movember continue its funding of world-class programs. If you want to know more about what you’ll be helping to fund, you can visit

Deviousness Award Interview with JoseFelipeMWhat is this Awesome Achievement?
The Deviousness Award is an accolade which is traditionally handed out
on the 1st of every month to one truly outstanding deviant.
The Deviousness Award for January 2013 goes to `JoseFelipeM.

Hello JoseFelipe! Please give us a quick introduction of who you are, in and outside DA.
Hey Thiefo!

On deviantART, I am `JoseFelipeM, a senior member for a bit more than six months. I recently received the Deviousness Award (obviously

that's what this interview is for) and `TimberClipse pointed out that not only am I the youngest senior, but I took his spot as youngest Deviousness Award Recipient! I am more of an art appreciator than an

Improved DMCA Reporting System

Hello, deviants! In an effort to keep the community informed and to provide the best possible experience for our members, we wanted to inform you of changes to our reporting system.
DeviantART is dedicated to protecting our artists, and in an effort to be able to more quickly handle complaints by deviants who have had their rights infringed on, we have changed the way we receive complaints from the artist or the copyright holder.
In the past, we took reports by the copyright holder in two different ways: An informal report via the Report Violation tool and a formal complaint via contacting the Help Desk. While both of these methods were effective, they presented many setbacks.

The informal report did not gather all the necessary information for a formal copyright complaint and was prone to misuse by well-meaning deviants who would attempt to report images they did not own the copyright to

The frightening winners of the MAMA Scared Stiff contest have been chosen! From the 25 Semi-Finalists, judges and MAMA filmmakers Andy & Barbara Muschietti and Guillermo del Toro selected these three spine-tingling winners. See which entries scared them the most!

Such awesome winners! Congrats to them.

~Wolf-In-Human-Flesh Feb 4, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

this was an awesome contest and the entries are fantastic!

~JaredDennis Feb 4, 2013

The winners were good picks.

~Chungphantomhive Feb 4, 2013

CONGRATS TO EVERYONE

now I must say 2nd and third place deserve above the winner. My opinion nothing more, it was still good

~Rivaleka Mar 26, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

I actually agree with your statement here. As an artist myself, the first was incredibly simple, and is only a double duplication from top to bottom, that had been painted mildly different.
If Anything, the placement of winners should of been reversed in my opinion.

~timtoe Feb 4, 2013 Digital Artist

Wow. The detail and execution in that 3rd place piece deserves a lot more than a $1,500 prize.

*TheMouseQueen Feb 3, 2013

I also wanted to say that #1 was picked because it picked up the theme and feel of the movie, and the girls having a good and bad side. They seem to go with the good/bad children theme. The person who won said this was her good self and her bad self under the bed. It matches the theme of the movie. So congrats to the winner.

*TheMouseQueen Feb 3, 2013

I love #2 a lot! The 3D sculpt, "Grandmama" by Forest Rogers was awesome too.

~flametail990 Feb 3, 2013 Student General Artist

AWESOME!!! I wish I could've participated in this! this is soo epic! I NEED to see the movie!!!! (I luv horror movies, but im technically not ALLOWED to watch them....)
