Thanks, i hadnβt heard of NewGrounds (assuming thatβs what you meant).
On multi-part deviations - I write stories here, and people sometimes say they didn't know Chapter Six was part of a longer work 
On collaborations - every participant in a collaboration should be able to post the final work in some way; right now it would have to be in a journal, which isn't where people would look for it, or a Collection, where you can't easily write about it. Collaborations help to build communities, though, of course.
Thanks for replying.

This made me laugh hard.

I'm glad to hear that. At this point, the apocEclipse itself is a laughable matter.

True enough)
Although Eclipse would be much funnier if it was happening somewhere else.

Even though there are some people still giving you a little bit of crap, I'm starting to think the Eclipse can work if you continue to add good updates to it. As I mentioned in my feedbacks I think all we need is now is a pagination option, a color background option other than black and white, a option to stretch out the about section just like the current deviantID and offer the option for people to change the size of thumbnails or at least make the thumbnails 10% smaller.
I personally feel as if there are more updates you need to add such as profile custom boxes. Plus more search categories are needed for the front pageΒ because some of us look for certain, specific things for references. Such as backgrounds, landscapes, and a couple more other things. I also think the galleries need to be re-worked a bit considering in my opinion the folders look neater going down the left side. As I said earlier if you keep adding good updates and listen to people's criticisms about the Eclipse it could work. I appreciate the attempt to make the Eclipse background neater.

Where is that editing tutorial? Can someone put it in a reply to my comment so I don't have to look for it?
I want to know If I am able to edit my profile in a certain way-
Edit: Nevermind, I found out how to move things around, and even remove them from view.
Maybe now I'll be able to get used to the Eclipse design.
I only really wanted the 'Dark Mode' anyway.
Edit2: Okay, I still have one complaint.
In the 'Activity' section, where you post status updates, I always post a video link.
On the 'Normal' version of the website, posting a video link would show a sort of thumbnail that allows you to play the video right then and there.
Really gives a people a sort of hint to let them know what they're in for before they click on it.
On Eclipse, however, there is no such function. In fact, it seems that the video link is completely hidden until you click on the status post.
Please rectify that, and you're golden.

Β Β Β Β There is a link to it on your Profile banner when you're using Eclipse.

Man, it feels like you're ignoring the negative reviews on it. A great majority of us don't want this update as a permanent thing, even then not even a site option.Β
π: 0 β©: 0
I bet that you're going to lose a lot of money when Eclipse actually comes through and you force your user base into something we don't, as a majority, want. Core will become useless without the customization and there's already a mass of people wanting to leave your website because you're forcing this garbage on them.

Still no correction on Thumbnail sizes.

Why should we bother sharing our feedback anymore as you continue to ignore 99% of it?
π: 0 β©: 2
I never really commented cause of this exact reason lol
π: 0 β©: 0
this update is still shit please stop
you guys dont give a single shit about what we are sayingΒ

da staff wont listen. the sites always been up its ass. they have NEVER listened to its users or even CARED about its userbase.

I'm sick of hearing about Eclipse.

I thought that slideshow was already there when I was messing with my gallery folders on home, guess I discovered a new thing earlier last night lol.Β
Journal image cover seems cool, will check out later.^^
I did discuss in the past about some things but I'll put them here again:
Preview images for stamps in either grid or masonry in custom boxes have no preview thumbnail so they show blankly (I already got an answer for this that it's gonna be fixed)Β
Β
On the mentions section in notifications there is no description until you clicked on the images.
Β
A suggestion I'd like to make is not make images HUGE when you set them as a cover on custom box, instead make them adjustable to fit just neatly so you can see the image even if it may stretch a little.
Thanks!
[One other thing that'll make me love eclipse more if it can work on my samsung tab a without crashing too :3]

Itβs getting better! Still not perfect, but Iβm really happy to be seeing these recommendations from the community being worked in! I personally still donβt like having the watch and feedback separated, hope to see that change in a future update!Β

How about they fix the old site and forgo the new site just add the parts that people want
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, I mean deviantart alway change the layout every 2 years so it nothing new.
Plus old version is very buggy, small bug fix wouldnt mean shit. It also mean more bug to fix. Might as well dump the entire thing and start something flesh (if they fix current issues)
π: 0 β©: 1
That's queer, I've been on da for over 4 years and I don't remember any sort of massive change like this. This here is just stupid. No one can find anything. Almost all my friends are leaving as soon as it comes online. And frankly I will as well. It's too much at one time
π: 0 β©: 1
that because DA have money issues back in 2016 so they didn't do anything to update at that time.
In 2017, Wix owned deviantart so the next 2 years, they decided to update the site using Wix system.

Well I'm glad they included everyone on this, cuz I never heard a word of this until about half a year ago, and I still think this is a stupid move
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, if they want to modernized DA, that their choice.
Eclipse isn't bad but do need some heavy working. Right now, I happy about the Feedback V.2 because it a least more easier then before.
π: 0 β©: 1
You say easier I say more intimidating, and harder to use. I don't care I'm going to other platforms when it launches

I show my hand for wanting eclipse lol
π: 0 β©: 1
That's all right if you like it so be it it's just everyone else but I've talked to doesn't want it and will be leaving that's why I put it down if you like it have at it
π: 0 β©: 1
I dunno mate, I've seen about a 50/50 split between people liking it and not liking it, but you're the first person I've heard who wants to straight up leave cause of the update haha
I just wanted to put in my two cents, cause Eclipse isn't entirely unwanted!
π: 0 β©: 1
Everyone's entitled to their opinion. I will not deny that and while you haven't met many people who don't want eclipse I have to admit that you're one of the first who adamantly want it
π: 0 β©: 1
it just aint quite as adamantly disliked as you think haha

Okay that slideshow thing does sound cool

Let me know when it will work with Internet Explorer thank you.
π: 0 β©: 1
To be honest, it doesn't work very well with the new Edge either, as Internet Explorer is being phased out/no longer updated or supported.Β
It does actually look a little better in Firefox,

Um, look there staff, the majority clearly doesn't want eclipse.
For me the major problem with eclipse is that it isn't pixel art friendly, because of the design.
Plus, I've been using DA as a cheap personal website alternative, since it only cost around 50$ a year, much cheaper than services like wix, or similar, and it is directly bound to an art community allowing better branding (if I'd only do it though....), but ALL THE CUSTOMIZATION IS CUT IN ECLIPSE.
But what bugs me the most is that with Eclipse, you are willing to waste YEARS of Customization Content, ranging from simple custom box scripts, to advance scripted customization for profile and gallery, while knowing that there are users out there taking commissions on this service and make money with downloadable content, stripping them from an income source, for a worse, more modern looking DA nobody asked for and no user benefits from.

Creativity is dying with the future coming in so fast. Our pages will become mediocre and unoriginal. A lot of us like to express ourselves on our pages through design. This custom box they added is not enough. I personally want to add raw code to decorate, not their boggled generated drag-and-drop wix code.
