Join the beta testing program to help test and improve future DeviantArt features!

Beta testing is a cornerstone of DeviantArt’s history, and beta testers benefit the community by providing feedback and usage data. Through bug reports and insight shared during the testing stages, beta testers can help shape and improve site features.

Any deviant can become a beta tester by adding this journal to their favourites. If you decide later that you want to opt-out, you can do so by removing this journal from your favorites.

How It Works

Beta testers are among the first to see new features introduced to DeviantArt. This early access is provided so deviants can test new features and provide feedback for the DeviantArt team through comments, bug reports, and user engagement metrics before it's released sitewide.

When there’s an open beta test, testers will receive a notification providing details about the feature being tested, the specific things they are being asked to test, and how to provide feedback.

Keep an eye out for these notifications, since there won’t always be an open test to take part in and each test will be for a limited time.

Get Started

Are you interested in being a beta tester? Add this journal to your favourites to opt-in to the beta testing program!

Please note: opting in or out is not an instant change — it may take up to 24 hours after the journal is added to (or removed from) your favourites for the beta tester status to change.

Feature: Shading, Color Theory, and More

Sep 13, 2023

This curated feature is brought to you by @BeckyKidus, who posts monthly features like this one to their Profile. It’s September, and people who watch me know I’m in the middle of a series showcasing tutorials and undiscovered artwork. The first part of this feature includes tutorials related to shading and color theory, and the second part is a selection of artwork I’ve discovered recently with fewer than 50 favourites. If you’d like to see more features like this, previous features I’ve put together are linked at the bottom of this journal. I hope you're able to make use of these great tutorials and enjoy beautiful art you may not have seen! Tutorials: Shading and Color Theory Shading and color theory are important in all kinds of artwork and are considered fundamentals for a reason—and, like most fundamentals, they can be quite tricky.

Gallery Sections are a Core feature. All deviants can preview how it will look, but the preview will only be visible to you.
