Did you delete the photo that earned you a DD?! It's alright if you did, it's just...surprising, to say the least. I could say that maybe you're not one for publicity, but you have links asking to vote for your work on some deviations. Very unexpected, at any rate.
Anyway, not to bother you too much, but I felt I had to ask: what lead to you to that decision? It's not something I could see without some philosophy, ideal, or previous experience encouraging. I find it fascinating.

First of all, I had no idea I had Daily Deviation. I went and saw which one was selected. I had already deleted that particular photo due to a legal issue. That issue seems to have been resolved and I made a public response about it here. [link]

Watched the link, and it's really sad how it came to that. I hope I didn't seem like I was criticizing you earlier, either. I was just curious what was up, because I've never seen that happen. Your work deserves any recognition it can get, and I hope that DD or not, you keep getting noticed. Thanks for taking the time to explain yourself.

Why'd you delete your first DD? It was worthy.

Oh wow, I just realized you deleted your Daily Deviation! Damn, David! That's the ballsiest thing I've ever seen someone do!! You're my hero, bro!
I wish I had stones like yours! That was friggin' brilliant! lol If it sounds like I'm being sarcastic it's not my intention, I'm dead serious! You, sir, ROCK!
Was deleting your Daily Deviation a way of thumbing your nose at the whole DD concept or was it in protest of some kind? I hope you get back to me, I'd love to know your reasoning! What ever the reason, that's ballsy man! Really!

Although deleting the photo just to snub the whole Daily Deviation concept sounds like something I would do, there were other factors involved. Also, even though it is nice to have my work selected for it, it honestly wouldn't do much for me in the long run. That is, unless it brings more than views to my work. Having eyeballs on you is nice, but this also my business and I need customers and clients too. I've been on DA for almost 10 years and it's done nothing for me.
DeviantART is a large community and it's hard to get noticed around here. I am very annoyed about what does get noticed. My nude/erotic/fetish photography gets hundreds, maybe thousands, more views than my paintings and drawings just because they have naked women in them.

hahah Yeah, I totally understand where you're coming from. It's clear that many people here on DA are only watched and faved because they draw, photograph, paint, etc naked girls. A lot of really fantastic artist here do no get noticed and KNOW they would get noticed if they started creating naked women in their art. I commend them for not going down that route just to get DA fame. lol Personally I don't think I'd ever cross into that territory. I love creating art that is a little on the sexy side, but hope I'd never start doing nude art or crossing that line.
I'd really love if more artists here get recognized for their style, creativity, and individuality, rather than liked mainly for the subject of there work (often regardless of the quality of the work depicting that subject).
Don't get me wrong, I adore DeviantArt - this site has been amazing for my career as well as my social life (I've meet some really great artists and individuals through DA) - but there are a few things I'd definitely change about it. The Daily Deviation System is one of them. I personally hope I never get a DD. I've seen a lot of really mediocre artists gain DA fame over night with a ton of new watchers, favorites, page views, (and all that goes along with it) just because they get a Daily Devation. I'd rather people watch me because they appreciate my talent (what little there is of it lol) than because I got a DD.
Anyway, sorry for the rant. You just touched on a subject I'm very passionate about.
Thank you for explaining the reasons behind the deletion of your DD. It burst my bubble a little bit (as I was hoping it was done on purpose lol) but still, I think you're awesome! Keep up the great work!

I'm with you. I don't have nudity in my art and photography just to cater to anyone and get more attention. If I did nothing but the kind of work that gets the most views and favorites, that would be selling myself short because I know I have more than that to offer.
Of course, this is the internet and DA's user base is probably has more young males than anything else. So, pictures of real naked girls will get more attention.

It is indeed!
Btw, that photo up there... !!! And great symbolism too: the sunset, the dead butterfly... Reminds me of one of the most famous poems in my own language. Quoting it would be futile, I guess - so let's just say, it's a good thing.

Have you ever had a dream, that you were so sure was real? What if you were unable to wake from that dream? How would you know the difference between the dream world and the real world?
What you know you can't explain, but you feel it. You've felt it your entire deviant life, that there's something wrong with the story. You don't know what it is, but it's there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad.
You take the blue pill, the story ends. Your browser closes and you believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill, you stay in wonderland. And, I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.
I offer only the truth, nothing more.
Take: The Red Pill
Take: The Blue Pill
spyed, nobody has ever done this before.
I know. That's why it's going to work.
