United in #PeaceForIsrael
In recent days, the world has been shaken by an act of sheer evil against the people of Israel. Israel was attacked by the terrorist organization Hamas, whose stated purpose for being is to kill the Jewish people.

You will run into a few bugs, but it was too exciting to keep it unlaunched any longer. Your patience is much appreciated, as is your feedback! Starting today, when you create a new group, it will have a layout that matches DeviantArtβs current design for Profiles and the rest of the site! Groups are a place for deviants to connect over shared interests, hobbies, and creations. Try out the new Groups design and create a shared space for what youβre passionate about! Please note that existing groups wonβt be migrated to the new design until early next year, and more details about that will be shared closer to when the change will take place. An Overview of Whatβs New The new design for Groups is adaptableβyou can view your group in dark, light, or green theme, and the groupβs appearance will change to match your theme of choice.

Art Feature: Tattoos -- Identity in Indelible Ink
This curated feature is brought to you by @AlexanderPaupoff. The word tattoo has its origins in the Polynesian tatau (or tatu), which means βto puncture or mark the skin.β Tattooing involves inscribing the skin by inserting dyes or pigments under the dermis to form patterns or designs. This ancient practice of body decoration has evolved into a significant form of self-expression. Tattoos are more than just ink on skinβthey reflect a personβs identity, beliefs, and experiences. They visually chronicle a journey, represent values and aspirations, and capture victories and tributes, allowing us to use our skin to construct our identities in deeply personal and profound ways. Typically, thereβs an idea of permanence attached to tattoos. However, much like people, theyβre quite changeable. Throughout our lives, tattoos transform in appearance and intensity, the same way we do as we age. They might be voluntarily changed, extended, covered up, or removed, and when we die, they
