dA News System

reports, August 10, 2006What happened?
The deviantART News system in version 5 has been revised from the bottom-up. The old code has been removed and rewritten from scratch to include all the new features we were planning for. As most of you, v4 users, can see, it is in many ways different from the old system. We hope that you enjoy using the news system to find "what's up on art" as well as to submit your own news articles as much as we did developing it.
Decentralized
In v5 News, there's no news administration. Well, not in the same sense as v4, anyway. Any logged-in deviant can post news articles, which do no longer need to be reviewed by administrators before being posted. Just click on "Submit News", paste your article in, write a summary, fill-in the title and that's it. You can preview your news submission before publishing it, to make sure there are no mistakes (you won't be able to edit your article later). When you're ready, submit your article, and see it on "Newest" ( [link] ). It's there, read it, link your friends to it, write comments, and +love it.
Popular News
The part a lot of users find confusing is the "Popular News" tab. Well, this is where good news articles go, and this is what's displayed to deviants that click on the "News" tab (Popular is being defaulted). It's "frontpage news". Popular news are updated every now and then to reflect the popularity of our existing news articles. They aren't picked by administrators, but rather by a computer algorithm. Any article can become popular; not only admin articles -- even your own news article could go up there. Just make sure your article is well-written, clear, and informational, and it surely will.
+heart
Ratings is another cool thing with this new system. If you find a well-written article that you think is worth reading, click on the little +heart to love it. Loved articles have many more chances of becoming popular. You can love your own articles, your friends' articles, anyone's articles! One thing to remember, though -- you can love each article only once.
Submit!
So, go ahead and submit your own news article right now, see it take its position within the "Newest" articles, love it, have your friends read it and love it in their turn if they want, and, why not, watch it get into "Popular"!
Any suggestions on the new News system? Complaints? News ideas? Just leave a comment here! We'll make sure we read every single comment and consider it.
Happy news hunting!

 reports, 1d 17h agoUnrestricted stock can be used for both personal and commercial projects, but it cannot be redistributed as stock. You are not required to obtain permission prior to using the stock off site and the only requirements are that the stock provider be notified and credited. 89 Dive into the 3D stocks World!=Princess-of-Shadows
 reports, 23h 31m agoI can't believe so many artists dedicate their efforts and time to create authentic works of art for us to USE freely! In the world of 3D stocks [ most of it unknown to the photomanipulators ] you can find truly inspiring fantasy and surreal elements that could never be captured by a regular camera. And the best part is that most of them come in a transparent background, so we can simply click and drag onto our work. How fun, fast and easy is that? |

..the sky has the form of our emotions
The seriousness of deviantART attempting to cover the arts as a whole just went to hell.
I just tagged 5 articles that were spam, 3 that weren't news, and 2 that were totally irrelevant. What's that say? Will DeviantART ever see listings as they had in the first 5 years?
DAv5 is without real arts news, how sad.

Disce quasi semper victurus, vive quasi cras moriturus
I know the new news system is just in it's beginning phases and so these kinks with all the spam news may be worked out but for now it is very frustrating to sift through the multiple messages that are much more suited to the forums to find the ones that hold proper news information.
Thank you!

Critiquing someone's prose or poetry is an awesome thing to do.
I'm the literature GD and we've been using the literature gallery news really effectively for months. We have a team of news writers who share articles they've found while browsing that are lit related and decide whether or not to write their own articles, quoting and citing sources, to post to the lit gallery news. It's worked really well.
I envisaged the new system working slightly differently to how it is now.
Anyone would be able to post news, but to specific categories. The article would display in that category and in "just in" or "newest", until it wasn't new and/or it recieved enough love to be in popular, then it would appear on the main page. People would also be able to browse by category.
The "annoucements" category would be reserved for staff who needed to communicate with the community.
Gallery Directors would be able to manage the news posted in their galleries: if something was in there that wasn't related to their gallery they could just move it from appearing there. If there were duplications we could hide them.
Did you know there was a greasemonkey script that someone made for the lit community that allowed them to "watch" a specific gallery for news, and when a news item was posted they got a message in thier inbox? I think that rocks.
Perhaps this is how it'll work once the bugs are ironed out, it'd be nice to know your thoughts, though
