DeviantArt <> NG?

Posted by dodo-man-1 - December 16th, 2007


I've posted my art on DeviantArt more than Newgrounds lately, because everyone here seems to think I suck. So I've been wondering - which site is better, DA or NG? This unbiased thingamajigger will tell you.

Criticism
DA:
Users will only comment if they think it's good, and even then they just tell you that.
NG: Users will comment whether it's good or bad, and give you hints if it doesn't totally suck.
Advantage: NG

User Intelligence
DA:
People seem smarter, for some reason. Good grammar and spelling all around.
NG: Even division between college-degree smart and pants-on-head retarded, with few in-betweens, which can get annoying.
Advantage: DA

Content
DA:
Art, obviously, but a broader definition than the NG Art Forum; photography, flash animations, poetry.
NG: Visual arts and flash animations, but a lot more than on DA.
Advantage: Tie

Setup
DA:
Really ugly for an art site, set up in light gray and grimy shades of green. A bit confusing to navigate; really not self-explanatory.
NG: Bright orange-and-black paint job that changes with the holidays. The layout is easy to figure out.
Advantage: NG

Forums
DA:
Literally almost 3 dozen different forums, about 4 of which a user will frequent at any given time.
NG: 11 forums, of which you will probably use the same number.
Adantage: NG

And with a score of 3-1-1, NG wins! But what the hell, right, this doesn't mean anything.


Comments

Here in NG, they critized me, nut in dA, when I posted my Art pieces, praises and respects come into me.

But this was scored as the sites as a whole, not just the Art aspect. If that was the case DA would win.

And I'm glad you're back after so long. I missed your awesome pencilwork and Pokemon fusions.

Haha, DA is full of asskissers, The first drawing I entered into DA got a favourite on the first day.

SHEEZYART IS THE BEST.

I have never been to SheezyArt.

I have a deviant art too, and I just joined newgrounds, so far I like it better but people seem to be much smarter on DA than here.

Thanks a lot, buddy.

What?

That's why I thank you. I hope you get it this time.

Yes what now?
