Mobile web is going green
For a while now, DeviantArt on the mobile web has been green with envy that only the light and dark themes were available.
By popular demand, now you can carry the classic DeviantArt green theme on devices in your pocket, emitting the same nostalgic green glow that adorns your desktop experience.
[DEVIATION]

Your themes don't have to be "set it and forget it." Change them like you change your style. Some deviants prefer green or light themes during the day, and then switch to the dark theme at night, for less strain on the eyes. Others settle into their favorite comfy green theme and wear it everywhere.
To enable it, click your avatar to open your profile dropdown, then tap your theme of choice.
Prefer the web app? It also supports all themes, and gives you immediate push notifications for new messages and activity.
It IS easy being green! 💚

New Filter Options on Tag Pages by Team, journal
New Filter Options on Tag Pages
You can now customize the way you browse tags, including Daily Challenges.
Some tag pages can get crowded when one artist posts many deviations at once, making it harder to discover other creators. We tested different approaches to find the right balance and decided the best solution was to let you choose how you want to browse.
[DEVIATION]
Whenever you’re on a tag page, just open the sort dropdown and choose:
One image per artist if you want to see a larger selection of different artists, each with a single deviation under the chosen tag. This way, creators get a chance at more visibility, too.
All images if you don’t mind seeing several deviations by the same artist.
These new filters live right alongside the existing Relevance and Most Recent sort options.

Longer Titles, More Characters, and Emojis 🥰 by Team, journal
Longer Titles, More Characters, and Emojis 🥰
You can now use special characters (like & @ " ; `), emojis (like 🎉 ✨ 🖌️ 🫠 🔥), and non-Latin characters (like 日本語, 한국어, Русский, العربية) in more areas across DeviantArt.
Also, some character limits are doubling! Titles that were capped at 50 characters can now go up to 100, so you have more space to get creative and descriptive.
This update applies to:
Deviation titles (including journals)
Galleries
Collections (both public and private)
Folders
Tags also support non-Latin scripts, but their character limits stay the same.
DeviantArt is home to artists and communities from all over the world, and now you can express yourself in whatever way feels natural.
There’s also a separate effort to translate DeviantArt into more languages as part of our push to make the platform more inclusive.

ARTS & CRAFTS: turn existing deviations into listings
Do you have past deviations you’d like to sell as Arts & Crafts, but you don't want to lose the comments and faves they already have? Now, you only need to click "Sell Deviation" on any deviation page or in Studio, and follow the flow to convert it into an Arts & Crafts product.

SUBMIT WITH ATTACHMENTS: upload smarter, not harder
Deviants can now upload multiple files at once, and the upload order will be preserved automatically. We’ve even added drag-and-drop reorder if you make a mistake. A small change with a big quality-of-life payoff, especially if you're managing multi-file listings.

Going global: Say hallo to DeviantArt in German! by Team, journal
Going global: Say hallo to DeviantArt in German!
DeviantArt has always been home to artists from around the world. In April, we announced Spanish as our first supported language, and we decided not to stop there.
Today, we’re introducing the second supported language: Deutsch, so that German-speaking creators can explore and participate in the community more easily. Willkommen!
How to switch your language
Navigate to your Profile dropdown in the top-right navigation bar.
Click Language.
Select your preferred language and click Confirm.
[DEVIATION]
While not everything may be translated into German just yet, more will be added over time.
Deviants' deviations or comments will not be localized into other languages. They remain in the language they are originally created in.
Now that we’ve done Spanish and German, it’s kind of hard to stop, so we’ll keep adding more languages in the future.

Seller Tips with OHH: Be consistent! by openhighhat, journal
Seller Tips with OHH: Be consistent!
Hi! I’m @openhighhat , but you can call me OHH.
I joined DeviantArt over 20 years ago and I’ve been sharing my original art and stories for over a decade. Since I began selling my Mature and NSFW collections in 2024, I’ve built a supportive fan community and learned what works and what doesn’t. Now I’m sharing my experience and seller tips to help other creators just like you grow their business on DA.

Tip 3: Be Consistent!
This tip links into my last tip about posting frequently.
One of the best ways to grow an audience is to be consistently active. People are more willing to invest in an artist who is consistently active. If they know you post on Wednesday and Friday, they will come to your page on Wednesday and Friday.
If you just post at random, then they will not actively seek you out, but just wait for your work to appear on a feed mixed in with other artist’s work. Consistency and frequency are the keys to growth!
