Has everyone else noticed the changes around DA? If you want more than my personal opinion, go here: [link] or [link] and [link] And stick around for my opinion! It's great.

When my sister asked me if I'd seen the changes around DA, I just shrugged, thinking, "Great, they've changed our profiles again. Nothing serious, just moving things around again." Was I in for a surprise or what?
Apparently, it's essential for everyone to be a subsciber- I mean, Premium Member! Look DA, I don't want a subscription. I'm happy the way I am, as a deviant. But what is that thing on my page? It says "Needs premium membership." Um, shouldn't that be optional?? Like I said, I'm happy the way I am.
As the link above says, it makes the "premium members" seem like Gods. Really, read it. I'm not even kidding.
I'm upset about this. I don't like it. I really don't. And, to make it even clearer, I don't like this change, DeviantART. I don't like it. And I'm not the only one.
Now some of you might say that it's no big deal! Well, you're wrong. It is a big deal.

Oh, then I scroll down to submit this journal. What does it say, everyone? :no:
That's right, (quote unquote) *Get Premium Membership to enable Journal Skins!
Yeah, I know, it's been there for a while. I just never payed any attention to it. I'm not against special priveleges for those who pay for them. Just that I don't want all these little things hanging around and distracting me from what I'm trying to do. Let me repeat: I don't want a ';Premium Membership.' I'm fine as a Deviant. I am not, however, fine with being labeled as "Needing Premium Membership."

I like the community feeling on DA. Let's keep that as best we can and try not to make one person better than the other, shall we?


Want more info? Click on the links listed above. They're really informative and contain WAY more information that I have here. I really mean it- go look at them.

Journal History

deviantID

Hi! I'm Julitz. It's not my real name, but that's what you can call me. At my high school, I take Advanced art, and I've been christened "Master of All things Colored Pencil" and the "Queen of Colored Pencils." They call me that because I mostly work with my prismacolors, and over the years I've gotten pretty good at it. I live in a small town, and I enjoy doing 'small town' things, like taking walks and listening to music or just hanging out by the river. I draw a lot. No kidding.
I make comics. I love making my comics. I swear, they're the only reason I'm still sane. Many of them are based off of real-life experiences, or what I was thinking during these experiences. I have a good sense of humor, which is why most of my comics are funny. I try to convey my emotion through to paper, and sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt, but I hope you see what I'm trying to show you through my work. :3
