It's time to celebrate another year around the sun, and this time we're trying something new — a party at Fella's Pizza Palace! Sure, the lights keep flickering and the door slammed shut suspiciously fast, but that's probably fine. The important thing is that it's DeviantArt's 22nd birthday, not that the mechanical band of mascots onstage seem to be alive... and also angry?
Never mind that.
Join us for fun-filled activities and an awesome, not-at-all-terrifying Birthday Badge!
Four Evenings at Fella's
Great party, right? Delicious pizza, soda, and cake is all you need to have a good time drawing with your fellow deviants.
Wait, what was that?
Oh! There's a band, that's fun. The music is kind of strange though... and that llama has a weird vibe.
Let's get out of here.
Uh, why is the door locked?
Join the Fun!
After opening a new pizza place, Fella started a band with his friends! They play fun music while you eat, and our lawyers say they've technically never hurt

DeviantArt Protect: Helping Safeguard Your Art
DeviantArt is proud to introduce innovative new technology in our continued effort to help protect our registered artists. DeviantArt Protect, our new state-of-the-art image recognition software, was developed to help safeguard your art in ways that were not possible without recent advances in machine learning. As many artists are aware, copyright infringement is a serious problem. This technology is trained to identify new images that appear nearly visually identical to other images on DeviantArt and allows us to notify you when someone uploads potentially infringing art.
The effort that goes into your piece of art is more than simply the time spent creating. The practice, gaining of knowledge, and skill are all evident in the finished product. When DeviantArt sought to utilize machine learning with added human oversight, the goal was to help protect more than just one’s finished work. It's about helping to provide protection around the totality of effort put forth.
