[Tutorial] How to Find Group Notifications|ECLIPSE

May 14, 2020

Hello and welcome to my low-budget tutorial on how to find GROUP notifications in DeviantArt Eclipse! STEP 1 - Click on your bell icon. This takes you to your notification dash board! STEP 2 - Click on the down facing arrow next to your username. Clicking this arrow shows you all groups you are admin of. STEP 4 - Click on a group to check for any notifications. !!IMPORTANT!! Eclipse DOES NOT notify you of ANY group notifications! You MUST CHECK IT MANUALLY TO KNOW!!! If you have a notification, click on it to accept/decline/comment on it. You CANNOT accept/decline/comment for THIS dashboard. (Annoying, I know.) ((Shout-out to PerfectL (https://www.deviantart.com/perfectl)

How to DeviantArt: Status Updates

Feb 9, 2019

Three years ago I created a tutorial when DA came out with what was arguably my favorite new feature of all time: Status Updates. GONE were the days where I needed to use a poll or journal to get a simple thought or declaration of hilarity across to my watchers. GLORY BE! The original tutorial was created to help others find this wonderful piece of the delicious DA pie and it's still relevant... But now there is this MASSIVE change coming in the form of DeviantArt Eclipse... So here is an entirely new one! Eclipse is really enhancing the usability of status updates. I hope this tutorial will help you embrace the new ways to use Status Updat

How to DeviantArt: Cover Images!

May 24, 2019

Hold on to your hats, cowboys. We're back with another one... and a--and a--and another one. One of the new-for-Eclipse features you may see people talking about is Cover Images. The Cover Image is really the first stand-out piece that someone will see when they visit your profile in Eclipse. Arguably, your cover image could keep someone on your profile or send them elsewhere! Since it is such an important element to engage people who visit you, it's important to make the most of this feature. Staff also put out a great journal with a video to introduce you to the new profile as a whole! For this tutorial on Cover Images, we'll cover (see w

How to DeviantArt: Watch

May 26, 2020

The state of Massachusetts is starting to re-open (relevant because it's where I live) and so is the world... And so is our community on the new DeviantArt! My goal was to get this tutorial written before it went live but alas, life gets in the way. But let's waste no time and get right into a tutorial to cover the new Watch area of DeviantArt! We'll cover the following areas: What is "Watch"? Where Is It? Parts of the Watch Page Managing Your Watch Feed (this section is a biggie!) Manage Who You Watch Recommended For You Shall we begin? What is Watch... Where Is It?! Watch is the page you'll visit when you want to view deviations (individual and group), posts, and more from the community members that you've added to your Watch list. On DeviantArt, to "Watch" someone is to follow their work. Simple as that! Watch is the place to find anything those you watch upload to DA. It's also where you can find new people to follow and manage your watch list. But we'll get to all of that

I Created Art! Now What? #9: Eclipse

May 10, 2020

Once upon a time, your love and joy for (creating) art, prompted you to join an online art community. DeviantArt will look and feel new starting May 2020, but it is still a good place to start, improve and excel in your art. Soon Eclipse will not be Eclipse, it will simply be DeviantArt. But you'll have to learn to do things online slightly different. We've previously created a series of journals on learning to use DeviantArt - now is an appropriate time to evaluate how some things have changed. and how many things are still the same. Let's take a look at I Created Art! Now What? #1: Understanding DA Your personal menu at the top of your desktop profile looks different, as things have been shuffled around and hidden beneath drop-down menus. First, there's your notes/chat notifications in the envelopes (notes) or text balloon (chat) icon. When you hover over it, it will load your chats and/or notes. Next, your actual notifications is shaped like a little bell, you know the one:
