Description
I founded a group on dA (AnimeArtAppreciation ) over two years ago, and I have always been its sole administrator. I've discovered a lot of tricks and methods that I find very useful in running my group. I wanted to share that advice with anyone who is managing a group or wants to create one.This is just my personal opinion. I do not claim that my way is the only way. But this is what I've found that works.
If you have any questions, please ask!

OMFGGGGG!!!!!! I was wondering how the heck I suddenly had so many favorites for this, and then I saw the comments! I literally burst into tears. Seriously. Thank you so much for the DD!
And thanks especially to ginkgografix for suggesting it and to CelticStrm-Stock for featuring it!!

how do you move deviations to a different folder in the group?

There should be something that pops up if you hover your mouse over the deviation

It's odd because it doesn't do that for me :/ even right clicking too. Guess it is a personal problem. Sorry for inconvenienceΒ

Oops, I think they changed it recently. If you go to Β "edit page" or something similar (in the upper right corner I think) then the page will change to allow you to move things around. Hopefully that helps!

Next to the search-bar at the top of the page is the option "more." Hover the mouse over that, and select "groups." Then you should see an option on the new page (upper right) that says "Make a Group."
Hope that helps!

I believe to upload it, it should be 50x100 pixels.

Okay but do you need to be a member to make one?

I think if you don't have the premium membership, there's a limit to the number of groups you can make. But you should still be able to make a group without a paid membership

Next to the search-bar at the top of the page is the option "more." Hover the mouse over that, and select "groups." Then on the upper right-hand part of the screen you will see "Make a Group."
Hope that helps! Good luck with your group!

wait... but how do you actually create it on deviantart?
π: 0 β©: 2
1. Look at upper left corner of the page, where you see the dA logo and "deviantART."
2. Hover mouse over drop arrow next to that.
3. Select "Groups"
4. On the group page, on the upper right, it will say "make a group" or something like that.
Hope that helps!

Where do I actually make a group though...
π: 0 β©: 1
Go to the upper-left corner of the page, where the dA logo and name are. Click the drop arrow. Select "groups". On the page of groups, there is an icon in the upper-right corner that says "make a group"
