I love deviantArt. I really think that it is a great community where you can meet many talented artists and show your art.

But, there was always this one thing that bothered me the most. It is the lack of communication.

Most of us just view the deviation, give a favorite and think that by doing that we've somehow did something that deserves favorite in return.

There are so little, or none honest comments and the critique has become comments like these:

"I love this one!"
"Great job!"
"Lovely."
"OMG! So great."

I admit, I did something like that with the deviations that I really liked. And the other deviations? I would give a favorite to them, just a sign of support or to honor a hard work, because I know that the favorites mean a lot to some of the artists.

I just have too many people on my watch list, and I receive at least 100 new deviations to view every day, so it's pretty hard to comment each and every one.

...

So, I've decided to try my best and to leave a honest comment and constructive critique on every piece of art here on dA if I decide to favorite it or if I just have something to say about the deviation.

Favorites have taken away most of dA communication, no one appreciates honest critique anymore and we are all just running after as most favorites as we can get.

Let's try to change and let's try to affect each other to improve in the art.

Leave a constructive critique, I am sure that there are a lot of artists who would appreciate it.

Any suggestions? Leave a comment and let's start to change!
