Description
This is a special version of my older work 'Your Choice'. Its about.. well you know.One thing i'd like to point out: You may call this a 'propaganda'-piece, so its not meant to be 'fair', its there
to make a point.If someone likes to comment, by all means do so, but please think a little bit about
it before. Thanks.
Update: made a few corrections on the boxes.
Thank you all for your comments and favs.

I like this, but I'd be quick to point out that companies (the fundamental unit of a consumer/enterprise economy) do not usually start out as corrupt and power-mad; most start out with a goal of producing a product that helps people whilst bringing in a livable income (the ideal mom&

This one aint bad but I personally preferred the old one.

My, what a clever piece. Yep, I recall the propaganda issue. A neat statement of support there.

Yellow = Jark. Clever.
This is a briliant way of putting across an important message. The detail and thought you put into the boxes astounds me. Even the smallest touches, such as the Community capsules being twice as large as the Company ones, count in a big way. You are officially damned awesome. Go Community!
The matrix bit was pretty cool, too.

I painted my personal response to something.
This aided me when comming up with ideas.
Thank you!

very good piece. i like the joke on matrix and the box art. what is the collective rectum anyway?
π: 0 β©: 1
The term "collective rectum" goes back to a joke in the early days of deviantart. (Take a look of the very last line on every dA-page). During the years, this term was often used to descibe the whole "dA-continuum.

You have a future in art communications, this is excellenly done. A picture paints a thousand words, and with a little help from your thought provoking words, you have said volumes.
Now, where do I go from here...?

This gets me thinking about a Flash movie heavily based on The Matrix about human Community-ites versus Corporate machines...with Jark as Neo and Spyed(i think that's his screenname) as Agent Smith...And maybe I could put in the Clock Crew too...for some reason...

funny how we sometimes completely miss the obvious very well put

Excuse me? What is going on? I'm lost and concerned---is there something aweful about deviant I should know about? Sorry I've been away for a week and I'm fairly new here---so what on earth is happening so I can make some snappy choices. Thank you. *bows*

If you have no clue whats going on,just go to my Userpage, and check the links in my journal underneath the "Recommend reading"-line.
It'll take you some time, but its interesting stuff.

truly a thoughtful even provoking placard...
i think a good mix to choose inbetween would be right, but that goes against the ultimate "either all or nothing" law which is like murphyΒ΄s law a thing without reason, its merely a curse, a curse of mankind...
greets,

choosing community would surely be a mix, because a community this size, cant survive without a company in the background. But it would be the company serving the community and not the other way around.
π: 0 β©: 1
I hesitate to favourite this, because I argue that it is not simply a battle between company and community here. It is the Company and the Artists that make the community something worth fighting for. Still, thought provoking, I have to say I like it, but to spread something I might disagree with....

It's not often that I +fav something that already has so many fav's but I completely agree with what you're saying here and the presentation is stunning.
well done

I was supporting jark when this came out and I'm still supporting him now.
I choose the yellow, but I have to keep friends in mind which keeps me active on dA.

Great work, kinda reminds you of the voting system.

definitely the yellow pill. but i think its too bad spyed sees this as a corporation thing.

great job done on the boxes

Not only is this brilliantly executed, but the message goes across very strongly.
π: 0 β©: 0
I especially like the words down the left edge of the box as well as the ingredients in each box, very clever, but I like DA the way it seems to be to me, still freely available for the community as well as allowing the comminity a place to buy or sell things, in a sense the best of both, I see no reason why the community can't co-exist with the company, but if I had to choose one or the other, I'd choose the community.

Ya know, I don't mean to sound like an ass, but I don't feel the need to take black and white viewpoints on something as trivial as dA's fate in a grand universe where by human standards you are lucky to even have internet compared to starving children in Africa who are lucky to even be alive.
Just felt like saying that, really.

Caring for (globally) less important things, doesnt mean to forget the big issues. People are perfectly capable to do both.
Apart from that, dA is a just a microcosm for what is happening on the world. A quite huge microcosm actually.
π: 0 β©: 1
Point, I suppose.
Don't mind me. I'm just irritated at the whole dA/Jark/Spyed issue because I suspect there is more to this than just "Spyed screwed over Jark wrongfully". Ergo, I have declined to stay out of it. And STILL hearing this sorta thing going on just makes me vaguely peeved, especially when people could just learn HTML, start their own site, and host their work there, like I'm planning to do, upon which I plan on removing my stuff from dA and linking in my journal to my site, as the paranoia/chaos/drama here is finally starting to grate my nerves.

that was strongly stated *claps*
"Contains: Greed 36mg,.." <--love this part.
I like it's details.

Reminds me of that pathetic 'look at me' attempt by spyed, in having his little spam message sent to everyones deviant comments area.
How lame was that - well, it was about that time that I notice that girl scout was about eight stories tall and was a crustacean from the protozoic era. I mean, I realised that spyed was a angsty petty teenager caring out his own status and popularity after all his failed works thus far.
Anyway, all history now, but nice work playing on that,

If you join for the community it doesn't necessary mean you support Jark, before Jark was fired he never made any kind of effect on my community life, but the reason why I choose this community is probably because of the company that came with it, if I just wanted to chat with friends then I would never have joined and would be happy with the forums that I visit.
Great piece though, I really liked it, but I got the feeling the like the community better.
π: 0 β©: 1
I'm not sure i got your point.
π: 0 β©: 1
Jark is indeed a part of the DA community, but he was never a part of the community I reside in on DA, e.g. He's never affected me or anyone I know on DA, therefore he has never been part of my life.
