This is the place where you can personalize your profile!
But, how?
By moving, adding and personalizing widgets.
You can drag and drop to rearrange.
You can edit widgets to customize them.
The bottom has widgets you can add!
Some widgets you can only access when you get a premium membership.
Some widgets have options that are only available when you get a premium membership.
We've split the page into zones!
Certain widgets can only be added to certain zones.
"Why," you ask? Because we want profile pages to have freedom of customization, but also to have some consistency. This way, when anyone visits a deviant, they know they can always find the art in the top left, and personal info in the top right.
Don't forget, restraints can bring out the creativity in you!
Now go forth and astound us all with your devious profiles!
I live in South-Eastern Michigan. I like to draw. I am not a professional. I take on commission work from time to time. I do not participate in trades or requests.
Words of wisdom: Learn anatomy. I know it's boring but emulating/copying others styles first will stagnate your abilities in the long run. Trust me on this. You will not like yourself later if you dont work on your anatomy in the beginning. Even your favorite cartoonists know their anatomy, that's how they know they can make their styles work.
You can self teach yourself by getting books and spending time in the better part of the nudes gallery here on DA. You just have to force yourself to study and practice a lot and not cop out like many do whining about "but I suck" or "It takes too long!" or "I dont have time". Most of all you have to avoid using your "style" when doing it. Styles are inherently flawed so leave them out completely when you do your studying.
i'm not very good at teaching myself things. i know taking too long and me "sucking" are part of learning something new. for some reason i have trouble sticking to things without external prodding. =/ i've gotten books and the ones at the library aren't very helpful for novices.
