I'd really like to get a DD, i'm not entirely sure why tho, but i wouldn't want it for one of my poems, as i like them but i don't think they're good enough, a photo that i got lucky with or one at a devmeet i would love to be DD'd though...
"I like my work and thats all that counts." Still, a lot of the DDs don't deserve it at all. A lot of them are just black-and-white boob shots with nothing special to them. Most of the time, emotes really don't deserve DDs, either (today's was an exception), and that black and white photograph today was extremely meh. Does my art match up? It doesn't, and I'll admit that. But even so, I feel like I put a lot more effort into my art than the artists of many DDs did.
I might be ignorant, but I've never noticed how special photography is. With some cameras, you can get the same effect with point-and-shoot rather than spending laborious hours over effects.
Seems to me like DD's are a function of how many watchers you have. Which is why I don't even pay attention to DDs, since I don't have many watchers. And those who do watch me are terribly quiet when I upload something - and that makes me sad. Kinda takes away the point of uploading your stuff since no one pays attention.
I should get myself a corner to cry at, shouldn't I?
Indeed. I'm not sure I'd like that. I mean, if something I made was chosen to be a DD just because I had 1 million watchers and half of them faved it - that wouldn't feel so right. It's like it's a popularity contest, you know?
