This is the place where you can personalize your profile!
But, how?
By moving, adding and personalizing widgets.
You can drag and drop to rearrange.
You can edit widgets to customize them.
The bottom has widgets you can add!
Some widgets you can only access when you get a premium membership.
Some widgets have options that are only available when you get a premium membership.
We've split the page into zones!
Certain widgets can only be added to certain zones.
"Why," you ask? Because we want profile pages to have freedom of customization, but also to have some consistency. This way, when anyone visits a deviant, they know they can always find the art in the top left, and personal info in the top right.
Don't forget, restraints can bring out the creativity in you!
Now go forth and astound us all with your devious profiles!

Popularity, payment... To me it's always the same, the lowest common denominator. Sure it's nice to be paid for your art, but that should be all? When art becomes a "chart thing" and every good seller's called a genius, the whole community named deviantART becomes hilarious.

Achso, verstehe. Sorry, das hab ich nicht gesehen, ich kenn mich wohl auch doch zu wenig mit den DeviantArt-Funktionen aus. Ich nutz sie zu selten... Ich dachte, das wäre immer noch dein Journal-Eintrag. Deswegen war ich verwirrt.
Doch, ich finde deine Antwort sehr spannend und interessant. Allerdings hatte ich bisher keinerlei Gelegenheit, darauf zu reagieren - weder bei dir noch bei allen anderen, die sich die Mühe gemacht haben, mir zu schreiben (darum auch meine Zwischennachricht bei Twitter, die auf der Startpage meines deviantART rechts oben zu sehen ist).
I wish, people would take a closer look at most of the art pieces on here. There are so many pictures on the front page that look pretty, but seem to have no depth at all, while a lot of great artists never get feedback because their works look average or even strange at first sight, but would unfold their whole potential if you'd take the time to really deal with them as a piece of art. And this is another point: favourites are nice, but comments offer the opportunity to really give the artist something he can benefit from. To my mind, there are there are far too few people making use of commenting. I guess you notice the main point of my criticism - the speed of the internet is a nice thing on the one hand, but it enforces some claims upon art, that can and should never be met. Art should be free, and independent from external conditions. But unfortunately these things cannot be changed, it's more than utopic. And there still are a lot of things I love about deviantART. For example I have never seen anyone claim that a deviation was "no art", which is something I often hear in "real life".
And then sorry for my English which is not even as close to perfect as deviantART. ;D
