Description
Have you spread some Random Love today?TMNOTE!
This Greasemonkey Script is Obsolete as of deviantART v6's Release
You can now use deviantART's native Random Love-ish buttons using the following steps:
DescriptionThis script adds two buttons to the Main Toolbar. One which directs you to a Random Deviant and the other to a Random Deviation (using the inbuilt dA Random Link as shown at FAQ #535: Can I search for a random Deviant/Deviation? ).
TRY AND MAKE deviantART A BETTER PLACE
I have added a thread in the Suggestion Forum here to try and appeal to the powers-that-be to consider incorporating user creations, like this script, into the deviantART website itself, rather than relying on userscripts. Please visit the thread and lend your voice to this appeal.
Share The Love! - Get outside your comfort zone, find new friends, discover new art, explore the dA Community.
Want to Discover Unknown & Unrecognised Artists? - Check out DeviouslyArtistic.com a dA-related project by °jark and a number of other dedicated deviants.
Version History0.2 - Now dAv5-friendly!
0.1 - Initial Release
InstructionsIf you are experienced at all this, then just access the version you want from the links above in the "Version History" Section.
- Get Firefox (If you haven't got it already)
- Install it, of course.
- Get the GreaseMonkey Extension
- Restart Firefox (to Initialise the Extension)
- Click HERE and select "Install"
- Enjoy!

Don't give up home!
Just checking:
- Are you using Firefox? (simple question, but simple mistakes are the easiest to fix)
- Have you installed GreaseMonkey?
- Have you Restarted Firefox after installing GreaseMonkey? (it needs that to initialise)
- When you right-click on the "HERE" part does anything show up on the context menu?
Try just clicking on it (left-click) - if GreaseMonkey is correctly set up it should show you a plain text kind of page in the browser window and then one of those little messagebars (like the pop-up block notifications) should appear saying "This looks like a GreaseMonkey script - Want to install it?"
Still having dramas, let me know.

Now mozilla wont let me install the monkey thing, because "it is protecting my PC"

Oh that - I think that's normal.
You need to tell Firefox to trust anything coming from "mozdev.org" or something like that.

Zap me an email if you are still having dramas.

I'm interested to know why it's not playing nice for you.
Feel free to shoot me an email (it's on my Userpage) and tell me the version of Firefox and GreaseMonkey you are using.

It would be nice if deviantart.com try to add this buttons directly in the website.

All we can do is hope that someone somewhere sees the difference this makes for some of the more community minded members here.
And until then, I'll keep on keeping on, making sure that it stays alive as an effective workaround.

Why I love spreading random love!!!
Although i have safari... but DA surfing and random deviant still does the same thing anyway... right?

So long as you feel it in your heart, and practice it in your actions, Random Love can happen anywhere and at anytime.

May I ask how you found my deviation?
I just saw that there was quite an influx of Favourites on it today...

I hope you enjoy it.
If you have any problems, please, by all means, let me know.

Wow, this is awsome. As was previously mentioned, it's a PITA to have to go thru your messages to get to Random's. And I was just doing this tonight.

You're welcome.
Hope you enjoy it!

Nice idea, 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, figured as much.
You never know - they may consider doing this themselves in the next build for dA. One can only hope.
Enjoy.

You're very welcome.
Enjoy sharing the love.

Many thanks - that will hopefully remind me to check random pages from time to time.

I either use this, or a trawl the latest submissions into categories I have an interest in.
For instance https://browse.deviantart.com/photography/?view=2&order=5&limit=120 shows me all the latest photography submissions. And then I will transverse into interesting galleries from there.
Anyway, enjoy sharing the love.

I'm sorry, theres just to damn many people with Che avatars that i can't say what a stupid craze it is.

Umm... OK....
Thanks for your comment... But, not really.

Sorry, i'm just being an asshole. I don't see why people idolize him.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I respect your right to be, in your own words "an asshole", however in return would you please respect my wishes and, if you choose to exercise that right, don't do so in the comments section of my gallery, my deviations, scraps or homepage?
If you're interested in why there is such a public interest in Che Guevara, there are far more effective ways to find out as opposed to just insulting people.
If you are wanting to discuss this further, I am happy to do so, but I would prefer you contact me through either notes or emails, as this is not the purpose these comment sections were designed for.
Thank you.
