Description THANKS FOR THE DD!! YOU GUYS ARE ALL AWESOME!




Literature Gallery: Chapters and Annotation Assignment

A brief sketch for an idea I had not long ago for the lit community.

I didn't go into anything on the submission side. More or less this is the presentation side one would see as they click on a Lit deviation.

I'm sure most of you don't know that I actually came to deviantART as a writer. It took a few years before I fell into what I'm doing here, now.

I've been meaning to re-upload some of my older work, and it occurred to me as I thought about doing so how entirely in need of help that whole process really is.

I hope this one is actually considered seriously. It could really improve our Lit system by leaps and bounds... and make it FUN to read again!!!

As always, I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Ah-hah! Perhaps not as flawless as rolling around nude on a blue ball with a rose and a... spoon? Is that what that is?

*Leans in and looks more closely at your avatar*

Yes, I do believe that to be a spoon. lmfao. I love it!

starjinin In reply to ??? [2008-11-02 18:18:07 +0000 UTC]

dA seriously needs to take this into consideration. The current system is difficult to use, and it can get cluttered while browsing a deviant's gallery for chapters.

Congrats for the DD!

This is an absolutely fabulous and awesome idea. I'd actually feel better uploading my stories like that instead of the current set-up... great idea!

Plus, I have something funny to say... hang on.

Oh! And thank you for the praise!

PaulineFrench In reply to ??? [2008-11-02 18:02:03 +0000 UTC]

I've always found this a problem, and avoided uploading work from school and such. I don't write much on my own, but there are some things I'd upload if this was going to keep my gallery from exploding into a massive mess of mixed media ()

I'm glad this got DD'd. I suggested it last week but I sent my suggestion to Moonbeam13 because it was a staff suggestion oh well, its the acknowledgement that counts! Hopefully the techies can make it happen.

JesseLax In reply to PoetryOD [2008-11-03 06:42:51 +0000 UTC]

And yes, it would be of rockstar goodness if something along these lines came out. Without a doubt!
Thanks so much for your support.

JesseLax In reply to lyra-puu [2008-11-03 06:44:00 +0000 UTC]

Yes. This is a very challenging issue I've found even in descriptions!! It seems these days people are intimidated by anything longer than six lines of text.

Great idea, i'm friends with several lit writers on dA, and while I'm not one, I still think this would be a great idea for writers and readers alike.

Very good of you to say so! I agree.

IceIsNice286 In reply to ??? [2008-11-02 14:53:10 +0000 UTC]

Now this is absolutely brilliant!

I could definitely see the Literature Sections of dA really benefiting from this. It's simple, organized, and easier on the eyes instead of reading a GIGANTOID text wall of stuff.

You have a firm grasp of convenience on your hands, and I commend you for this.

+FAV!

Wow, that was a huge amount of praise in such a condensed amount of line-space. I'm honored!
Thank you so much.
