We recently launched Messages, and now it's your turn to join in on the fun. The absolute best part of an online community is gabbing with friends old and new across the world.  In the middle of the night, those geographically close can't always crash out with you about the finale of a show that just dropped. Or maybe you're bored during the day and need a pick-me-up from that one group chat that's guaranteed to bring a smile to your face with a thoughtful conversation or well-timed joke.  Don't wait for the party. Start it! Create a new chat or channel with a handful of deviants and start yapping. Looking for ideas on who to invite?  Deviants who submit to your favorite Group Your ride-or-die squad Your favorite creators Your biggest fans A group of people you'd like to mentor Enjoyers of a common fandom Remember: Messages has a Requests tab, so you won't be inserted into a Group Chat or channel without your acceptance.

DD Suggestion Drive 2025 After years, we’ve finally brought back the Daily Deviation Suggestion Drive!  What is the Daily Deviation Suggestion Drive you might ask? In past events, many members of our art community came together and suggested an amalgamation of art from many different artists in hopes they would receive a Daily Deviation, but with the twist to see who can also suggest the most work in general to us CVs or Staff Members. The goal was to get as many artists out there for recognition while also showing some fun competitive spirit at the same time. Hence why we’re bringing it back. We hope to bring many talented artists to the Daily Deviation page again.  Daily Deviation FaQ What is Daily Deviation?  A 24-Hour Feature that the staff or Community Volunteers feature for art to be recognized by the community. Where are the Daily Deviations? Next to the DeviantArt logo, press/click the menu and look for the sign. Press/Click it and you’ll be able to find the DDs. Or

DeviantArt is proud to announce a new opportunity for deviants to contribute to the community at a deeper level! The Ambassador program is designed to give deviants a chance to bring artists together, offer ways for artists to hone their skills or try new things, and help shape the future of the community.  Deviants eligible to participate in the Ambassador program are those who are co-founders or top contributors of official DeviantArt groups or affiliated groups. There are many factors that determine whether or not deviants might be a good fit for the Ambassador program, but all potential ambassadors should: Frequently run or organize community events Routinely be active participants in their community Consistently encourage and cheer on other artists Ambassadors will have direct contact with and support from DeviantArt team members when hosting events and challenges, to help their projects thrive.   Are you ready to be a community ambassador?

There is a legend in Nuremberg that says that Elisenlebkuchen was invented by a gingerbread baker around 1720. For a long time, Elisenlebkuchen was said to have healing properties. The legend of the gingerbread baker's daughter The legend has its origins in the illness of a gingerbread baker's daughter. He had lost his wife to a serious illness some time before. Now, as you can imagine, he was very worried about losing his daughter too. No doctor could help. In his great despair, he remembered that oriental spices were said to have healing properties. Since he had always used many of these oriental spices in his gingerbread bakery, he took courage again and came up with a new recipe for his gingerbread. This was made without flour and only with the highest quality
