Description
Hello, humans!This is an emergency message. I used to stay away, but as you know, the darkest day in the history of Deviantart is coming, in a month the old version of the site will be deactivated. I join the general course and ask you to sign the common petition for those who agree with me.

I do not want to pay money to lazy designers whose job is only to shuffle all the buttons in a random order, only to report to their boss about the work done.Do you think your careless work will go unnoticed by thousands of people?
You are mistaken.

Enjoy the last days of the normal old site.

Yeah, ehm, thanks for notifying me about origin of the picture and this being pretty much over.
What was wrong with dual functioning?

In this case, they have to spend money on supporting both versions of the site. They are too dumb to make Eclipse better than the previous version and too lazy to modify the functionality of the old site.

I think you are absolutely right.
I also think the old design is much more intuitive and pretty.
At first, the use of the eclipse was so strange that I felt like a fool.
But I still like deviantart.
The operators would not have made this decision for no reason.
So I will adapt to the new design.
The only thing I worry about is that a great artist like you disappears.

I will not go anywhere, but I will have to look for additional media to promote my work. In a way, they gave me a shake.
And the only donation that deviantart can get from me now is this.

That's a good idea.
How about ArtStation or Pinterest ?
ArtStation is similar to the current Deviantart. It is small but more professional.
I think the Pinterest is very different from Deviantart, but there are also many good sources.
It is interesting that it can be used with other sites.
Pixiv is also a famous illustration community site like Deviantart.
But I cannot recommend Pixiv. If you like the anime style of painting, it would be worth a challenge.

Artstation is more like a job search site, I am not interested in drawing for money and I want to promote my story.
I'm trying pixiv right now, but there are even fewer views than my drawings on DeviantArt five years ago. It feels like a dead site.
Pinterest is a porn site.
Maybe I can do something on Twitter

If your purpose is that, Twitter or Instagram will be fine.
I didn't like Twitter because there were so many aggressive people on Twitter.
If you're not afraid of malicious comments, Twitter will be a very attractive experience.
Anyway, I am happy to see your work continuously. Have a good day.

I feel what they have now is working as it is! Being able to toggle Eclipse on and off.
To me, Eclipse is made for a mobile version, the vertical scrolling folders are great for swiping on a phone, but it pisses me off to have to move my mouse to the far side of the screen, wait for the arrow to show up, then click on it so I can see what they are hiding.
And I prefer to have pages rather than endless scrolling if someone's got a ton of artworks. It can be fun to go right back and see how much improvement has occurred over the years! Eclipse doesn't have that option.

Oh man, that's my hope gone! Thanks on your input though. I'm surprised even keeping two different layouts would be so costly!

I have no doubt that these ****** will disable the old site. The worst part is that they do not care about the consequences, I am sure that they are aware of the opinions of the community.
DeviantArt no longer belongs to its creators and the team that works on the site sits on a salary and goes home in the evening. They just don't care what happens to the site it's just a job.

If you don't like Eclipse, stop giving DA money! End your Core. Ask for a Core refund. Call you bank and stop automatic withdrawals, chargeback or anything else that can be used to stop giving DA money. That is the only way to stop this!

Thanks to all who support the old site.
The golden years are over anyways, but that would be the nail in the coffin, eh?
It just doesn't feel like "home" using Eclipse.
I hope they hear us...

I will share this petition! Website upgrades usually don't bother me, but Eclipse is unnecessary. It's really harder to use DA. I want to keep the old design.

I didn't pay attention to the Eclipse until today. This time they went over the edge.

This is not my image, if you look in the "newest" now, you will see a lot of these signs. People are massively protesting against the Eclipse.

(Angry vent incoming. Just feel like this is a time and place for it. I am genuinely frustrated.)
Why do website developers keep trying to fix what isn't brokeeeeeennnnnnn........
Were people even complaining about the original DA? No. Was it crappy looking? No. Was it broken? No.
Does original DA feel like home? Yes. Does it work? Yes. Does it look unique with its distinct green theme and just-right minimalist layout which has been around for so many years? YES.
Does DA ECLIPSE on the other hand need to go back to the drawing board and be implemented in a way that just makes Old DA look darker as an extra option? Yes.
We don't need this eye rending ArtStation knockoff. Gotta twist my dang eyes just to navigate around Eclipse. I don't touch it anymore because I saw some people say they get stuck in Ecplipse or it glitches badly.
So much for promoting originality. Kinda hard when it's just Artstation eyed from a single glance.
"WeLp THIS MiGHT As WeLL HAppEN!! Eeh!!!! *Keyboard programming sounds* (My impression of whoever did this.)
How DOES THAT LOOK GOOD??????

Hm, k.... didn't think of that. Makes sense. It can't be helped anyways.

All we can do is hope Eclipse gets scrapped. I'm not the most nostalgic person but I want DeviantArt not DeviantStation. It drives me nuts looking at Eclipse and seeing the massive resemblance to ArtStation on a website that promotes originality. However I'm sure there's reasons for this mishap.
I can imagine making DA Eclipse would be pretty stressful for the person programming it indeed.

I have to go back to work, but for half a day I can’t gather my thoughts. This is very shitty news, I don’t know how I will use the eclipse.
Looking through other people's drawings there is very difficult.

As it turned out, many people do not have a link to the petition. Don't forget to share.

Civilization can go to hell, I need the old deviantart.

Я дерусь , потому что дерусь. Если все за, то я буду против. Если все хотят новый сраный эклипс, я буду за старый сраный да. Ну да, ностальгия присутствует, когда-то я начала постить ужасные картинки в анимешном стиле именно здесь. Это страшный и смешной дом детства.

Old dA is civilization
Let’s not forget that.
They’re upsetting thousands with this decision. I haven’t used Eclipse myself yet, but from what I heard, I don’t want to. This site has been like this forever, and them just changing it out of the blue without thinking people will be pissed about it is just so stupid.
