Let's all go to Guatamala and have a sexy threesome, m'kay? <3
Just a little pic in honor of "Guatamala Day" here on DA! Luckily I didn't get the journal but I had plenty of them in my message center last night!

What is the criteria for a Daily Deviation? Mass appeal to a wide audience? Quality of craftsmanship? A strong visual idea? Something really neat/ cool/ eye-catching?
Excuse my honesty, but this seems like an inside joke. I'm having a difficult time figuring it out.
I don't believe this qualifies as a DA. I'm not knocking the art at all. I just question featuring this over a piece of art that would have mass appeal and a catch many viewers eyes.
This particular piece has adult language/ theme to it. I don't think that's exactly a good impression of 'community'.
It is my impression that the DDs are about exceptional artwork produced by the community.
Maybe I'm wrong.

Well this was choosen because apparently it's one of the better "Guatamala Day" pieces on DA. It was a huge glitch that happened over a year ago and I guess Lolly decided it was a nice "community" piece since Guatamala Day has become a DA holiday. I admit, it's not nearly one of my best pieces (if you bothered to look through my gallery I hope you would see that).
I kinda feel bad that your not impressed with this but loads of people seem to like it so I'm still pleased. If you have a problen with DD's please ask the person that selected this since I had nothing to do with it rather than leaving this kind of comment. Thank you.

I asked Lolly about this issue and the answer I received was pretty much the same as what you gave me. None of my points concerning the appeal of the piece were addressed, or even refuted. All I received was an explanation that this was a 'community bug' that caused a 'hilarious' event.
Loads of people tend to go with the flow and jump on the bandwagon, saying 'cool' and 'great', but not really explaining why a piece is cool or great. Many people seem to be afraid to critique or question work posted here, especially daily deviations. That's probably why you're getting the impression that loads of people like it.
However, I'm an independent minded guy who looks at artwork with a sharp eye for quality, and I'm not afraid to write what's on my mind, even if that means ruffling a few feathers.

All I ask is that you refrain leaving these comments on other DD's. Remember that the artist has no idea when (or what) piece gets chosen for DD so it's just kind of rude. I had no idea this would get chosen but I'm still honored by it. It's like arguing with an artist (rather than the judges) when a certain art piece wins a prize just because you PERSONALLY don't agree with it.
As for critique, I don't care what people say as long as they're open minded and NOT rude. Helpful advise is fine but "I DON'T LIKE IT" doesn't help at all. It's just an opinion.
"Many people seem to be afraid to critique or question work posted here, especially daily deviations. That's probably why you're getting the impression that loads of people like it." Well even if that is the case, your comment came off as very rude.
That's all I have to say so have a lovely night/weekend/so on.
