We won!
UPDATE: Thanks to the efforts of our amazing community, deviantART won the People's Choice category at the 2014 SXSW Interactive Awards! We'd like to sincerely thank everyone for participating. The creative energy and inspiration that run through the deviantART community is absolutely awe-inspiring for those of us fortunate enough to be helping out behind the scenes. We truly believe that we are the greatest community in the world, and we work towards sharing that feeling with our deviants each and every day. Thank you for sharing this win with us!
Thanks to the generous efforts of deviants like you, deviantART has been honored as one of the top-five finalists in the People’s Choice category of the 2014 SXSW Interactive Awards!
We couldn't be more humbled to be amongst the other highly acclaimed finalists, but we still need your help! This year, voting for the People’s Choice category is open to everyone, all over the world. However, the process is a bit tricky, as it requires voters to cast their final votes live, using a smartphone or tablet app.
(Voting has closed!)
Thank you for your support!
We wouldn't have been considered for this honor if it weren't for the support and passion of deviants like you. By getting the word out, deviantART hopes for the chance to bring you even more cutting-edge technology in the creative realm, reaching more artists than ever before. So, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you for all the support you've given us over the years, and stay devious!
Spread the word!
Because the voting window is so tight, we're relying on word-of-mouth to help spread the message. If you're so inclined, please share your deviantART support across your favorite social media platforms, tell your friends, download the app onto your dog's smartphone and vote on his behalf, and help us rock the vote!

dA didn't create the standards for voting. The poll organizers did... It does seem kind of weird though that we all have to jump through a hundred hoops just to cast a simple vote.

I couldnt agree more. Why make such a fuss and cause people to download something we clearly dont want or in most cases cant download for 1 little vote.
I think this time they have lost a lot more votes than they are going to gain.

i would vote, except you keep implementing features and changes that the community has expressed a lot of conflict with and you don't consider the feedback for said features (like the "more like this" panel and no option to collapse or remove) , and you don't do jack about blatant art theft like you used to in the past, not to mention theres no longer answers to the reports. now children have spammed DA with constant video game and anime screen shots, official big company artworks, and then all of these but thrown into shitty demotivational posters. you also let these thieves as well as trolls to run rampant across the site. my experience has been worsening over time. i still like to connect with the actual artists on this site. but every other deviation i see lately is nothing but stolen work, myspace quality porn, and crappy traces of anime girls.

im not angry with the place, just sad at the decline in quality compared to when I first joined. and like I said, I still am here to keep up with the actual artists I follow and to post my work. there are not many alternatives, and while I am interested in ConceptArt.Org, their site is a tad confusing and they don't have such a streamlined way to submit work as DA does. other sites either are for purely furry type art or for fanart and I do a wide mix of stuff and don't feel too comfortable being on either. i do do some blog websites though.

I do see a lot of my little pony etc I tend to ignore it.. they don't stick around for long, what you could do is go to devbiant search and click on a category you like and press 'popular 24 hours' every time you go back to the search area you won't see those pics

i already have it set to popular but i still see these stolen works quite frequently, whether through front page, groups, more like this, or when i am browsing and looking at users who watch or fave something i post. there's just so many ways to browse that its difficult to avoid it.

no I know, my original comment was regarding the reporting system, and the revised policies that basically are an excuse so admins can ignore the theft.

Rhyn-Art In reply to LaraMuk [2014-03-12 01:16:21 +0000 UTC]
you can report an image, but you must have a werbsite link where the image is from in order to delete it... sometimes this does not happen unless it's obvious it's from someone like disney.. if the stolen work is by someone who is also on deviant art it's better to message that person to notify someone has taken them, that original artist can then successfully remove the image

LaraMuk In reply to Rhyn-Art [2014-03-12 01:22:24 +0000 UTC]
… you are completely missing my point a bit ^^' i know how to report images and provide proof. what im saying is admins ignore it quite often. i do alert original owners, but for such images that are stolen from disney/ nintendo etc, i do report, i do have proof, but they are ignored. i don't get emails from the devbot anymore of confirmed reports, i have not so much as seen a report looked at or a deviation removed for over 2 years now. the last time i did, they wouldn't take down an obviously stolen work of spyro the dragon because i wasn't the original owner, despite that it was an image from the game case and website in fact, ive given up reporting because the admins do absolutely nothing. this isn't about me not knowing how to report, its about the admins not doing their jobs.
