What am I talking about?

Faving art is REALLY important for artists. To get their Art view and get more expozure!
deviantART is just the most wonderful Art Community in the cyber world. Most of us have strong ties with this site and their Admins. This Community knew through the years how to built a vivid, creative and wide site!

Faving art as well as devwatching a deviant allow the artist to continue his work, improving etc. That's our way to show an artist we love him, we love his creations and that we SUPPORT him!









Into deviantART there are clubs that have developed a lot and keep this Community more alive and creative, spreading the love and the support, via thematic clubs.

When you submit your own creation to dA, you have several options that can be found in your submission page, see at the bottom.
You have a scroll box that allows you to choose if you want to "Allow Comments", "Discouraged Comments", "disable Comments", and "advanced Critics".

I'm asking for the same option for the FAVES.

Why?

First View these useful F.A.Q.'s :
- FAQ #216: Are there any rules for accounts being used as clubs or 'group' accounts?
- :faq764:

As I previously said Faving Art is really important for the artists. But how can it be useful if the piece is faved in a club's gallery?
All Clubs put the link to the Original Creation in the description and make a reminder of this Policy : NO FAVE INTO THE CLUB.
All support should be directed to the artist.
A Club's Gallery is here to expoze the work, not to be popular!

I'm an admin for several clubs, in charge of submissions and Fave/Unfave notes.
You can't imagine how many faves we have. Clubs' Admins pass their days to send notes to the deviants who faved the artwork in the wrong place according to each club policies but also to fair use of art.
Sometimes we get angry answers and even insults in return.
We gently try to explain the people that there is no "Disable Fave" Options... Many deviants ask the Club's Admins to put such Options, but we are just clubs admins and NOT dA admins.

And BTW if a single artist wants to disable to Fave Option (for scraps for example or anything else!) like the Comments, it's our free will!
There is also the fact that most deviants don't appreciate to get their art faved into clubs and not on their account (mostly because of lack of knowledge and non reading of the rules reminded in the club's deviation itself). We the single deviants usually send notes to these persons.

That's the reasons why i've created a Poll.


Before the poll i thought that for single accounts, this feature will not be used so much, and that's why i wanted to get your comments! I could not exepect that this option would be so useful. As some suggested : for scraps, ID's or stamps made by others, for creation submitted for contests for example, or WIPs, Details, Before & Afters etc. I've seen many other reasons for using this tool (if one day it exists i hope), so i really wish dA will create it!
I still gathering your opinions, suggestions, votes & comments. I'll then send a summary of this.
Definitely it seems that this options would be far more useful than we could think!!!







I've set up a Poll. Express Yourself in the poll, give your opinion!
Pro or Cons. With or Without suggestions. Do not hesitate to write down your comments, suggestions in the poll!

What we ask is to get a scroll box near/under the "Comments" Box Options with several choices as : You have a scroll box that allows you to choose if you want to "Allow Faves" & "Disable Faves", were "Allow Faves" will be the default Option. Or a check Box "Disable Faves".


Remember this Options can be used by clubs but by Any Deviants!
We Do Not ask for a specific Option for Clubs, but for EVERY account!

And please We're not here To flame nor any deviant (we all make errors) nor dA! We are just asking for a new feature (yes yes we ask a loooooooot to dA! ).
Show your love to this marvelous Community! Suggestions help improving.






Here's a topic related to this one.
Do we need specifical clubs accounts?
It will be a really good thing if dA recognized clubs. Really.

Many clubs do important acts. There are charity clubs, diseases, artistic clubs. They help the community growing but above they are a TIE between all deviants.
We are a family, here at dA, and clubs have a big responsibility in this.

Another topic to debate. Soon...
