you have to build up a fan base.
I've had about 3-4 of my poems make it to front page and this is how I did it.
1. Thanked every person that faved my poem individually on their page and then suggested that they stick around to watch for more and take a look at my gallery. (This will build your "watcher" base.
2. I posted consistently, at least 3 - 4 times a week (Artists may post less frequently)
3. I kept my page active with new journal entries every day and new polls everyday.
4. And of course, I had poems that people liked.
Its all about the fanbase. Follow those instructions and you won't lose.

hun, if you're here for popularity, you came to the wrong place.
this is a site to appreciate art, not whine about how others get more attention than you... grow up.

i think you have a very close mind if you can't appreciate different styles of art. this is art, and if you're not happy with it, then you can see a column at the left side of the front page, select a category where you don't feel like whining about how this person gets attention and you don't get as much attention as you wish you did.
if this weren't art, it wouldn't be on the front page. (:

that's not what i'm saying. i'm saying that it's disappointing how only certain people can get their art on the front page when my page is basically just like having another photobucket account, whereas i'm not getting any kind of critiques or comments on my art. if my art's not good enough for anyone then i might as well get a noose ready to hang myself

well, my intention was never to be rude.
but really, it takes a lot of dedication to get to the frontpage.
if you want feedback on your work the best way is to join groups that are related to your art. in your case you could join sonic groups, cartoon groups, videogame groups, fan art groups and you'll start to get more feedback.
NaBHaN has been on the site for quite a while now and worked really hard to get to where he is now. keep working on your art, my advice (after checking out your gallery) is to try other programs and colour them, if you can't colour practice or look for someone who can colour it for you. there are a lot of deviants who just colour lineart and you could make a new friend that way.
you'll get there, believe me (;

people still use that term? what does it even mean? butt-hurt? i certainly didn't land on something to actually hurt myself, but whatever.
and maybe i did. it looks too simple. if i still had my tablet i could've drawn the same picture (yet of course my account isn't accessible for critique for some stupid reason) so yeah

uh-uh your doing it wrong. See, when I said the thing about making "a mockery of..." I really think you used that term wrong. But I used the term, butt-hurt (made up though it is) correctly...so there. and yes, it is still used pretty frequently. DON'T TRY TO BEAT AT MY OWN GAME I SPENT YEARS PERFECTING BEING A SMART ASS.
Yea..I tend to think that a lot too but it's actually pretty difficult getting down soft shading and paint like strokes. Does that stupid reason happen to be because you don't have a premium account?

my point is that that everyone should have a chance to shine here. not just people who can just make a stroke on a digital canvas while it brings in like 300+ comments. i'm not getting upset over it, i'm saying it's unfair to others

Your art is photos of some area, character sketches, and comments that are a 'random' kind of funny. Nothing outstanding, deeply touching, or have a deep message like this one. Plus, this deviant has been here for YEARS.

"photos of some area"? nice try. and i don't know how my artwork isn't outstanding. artists all have different styles, and that's expected to BE appreciated by everyone. if i can't draw then i have no visible talent. thus i have no will to live

Argentcoeur In reply to Benjamillion [2012-04-18 18:31:28 +0000 UTC]
Okay, photos of a store and what appears to be video game discs. That's not really art unless you can find someone that admires how the light is and the direction of where the camera is pointed.
Your artwork is just some cleaned-up sketches of some creatures with ginormous eyes. It's a start, but there's nothing there that would appeal to the majority of deviants who mostly look for the 'best of the best' to them. There's no shading, no background, no little quirks in the characters that pique the interest, no intriguing position you've put them in. You need to keep working on that if you want to be popular here.
I can't draw well, so according to you I have no visual talent. Well, I make jewelry and write. My jewelry isn't the best; that means I need to learn how to make better jewelry or in some cases, learn how to take better pictures.
IMPROVE AND THOU SHALT REAP THE REWARDS.

photos of a store? do you not like to read titles? because there's at least 70 pictures of them with the same title.
and if you're complaining about no backgrounds then i guess you haven't looked at the other pictures in my gallery. the same thing goes for the positions you were talking about

Argentcoeur In reply to Benjamillion [2012-04-18 22:22:17 +0000 UTC]
So I took a glance at the first page of your gallery. That's the most recent stuff you've put up. Generally I find that the most recent page in one's gallery is a page of their best art. But still, your drawings are of a very similar style as most webcomics I've seen. It's not that impressive and unique when you compare it to other stuff on the internet.
I say you're a troll because you seem to think your art is near on par with something like the Mona Lisa, when it's not.

You focused on the troll part and didn't mention any of the rest of my reply. I suppose that means I win, since you have no argument to that.
Paying for a premium does not mean your art will magically become better.

Benjamillion In reply to Argentcoeur [2012-04-19 21:05:51 +0000 UTC]
i don't care if it means that i'll get better. at least i'll be getting reviewed for my art, which lacks strongly in having a normal account. this guy's got 400+ comments now, each one a critique. and yet all of my deviations range from one or two comments to just being barren. like i said, it's like having a second photobucket account since all i'm doing is storing my art and not getting any feedback from it

Argentcoeur In reply to Benjamillion [2012-04-19 23:22:13 +0000 UTC]
You've got more watchers than me, more than a lot of deviants. I've got an idea! You could try to find ways to get your art noticed! >_< Post on a forum that talks about the kind of art you do. Share your pictures with people who do similar art to yours. I'm posting some of my photos on my Facebook and sharing it on a jewelry forum, and I'm thinking of starting Twitter and Facebook pages for my art. In the next month or two, I'm going to open an online shop to see if I can make some sort of living off my art, even though my photos have barely any comments. Get yourself noticed. Take commissions, cater to specific interests like drawing a parody of an episode of My Little Pony, draw a pairing doing something cute. Don't wait for a deviant to come across your pictures and whine about it. Do something about it.

Tissues are used for things that could be considered nearly as gross as Mr. Toilet Paper's job.
Namely mucus and (by most teenage boys) semen.
