Micronational Art Society
I have created the Micronational Art Society, a DeviantArt group devoted to preserving all forms of art from every sector of micronationalism.

Re: Micronational Art Society
Cool. I hope lots of people get onboard - there's been some great stuff produced, but it's much harder to preserve Art than other things, doesn't fit on wikies nicely.

Indeed. This is a great idea.

Re: Micronational Art Society
Sounds interesting Pity I can't draw
I wouldn't go mentioning it to MicroWiki yet - they're going through a puberty phase at the momentfrom every sector of micronationalism
Re: Micronational Art Society
It looks great! Deviant - for obvious reasons - can be a bit of an infuriating site to engage with, but - once I have permission from the perspective artists - I could certainly upload some stuff from Ashkenatza! It would certainly be a decent outreach programme to try to get more people in the hobby, or just raise awareness of us in general!
Re: Micronational Art Society
Just be careful, a policy change in how DeviantART handles permissions and ownership of content forced a lot of artists away from the site.

This is the first I've heard of such a change. Please elaborate.King Ailin of Uantir wrote:Just be careful, a policy change in how DeviantART handles permissions and ownership of content forced a lot of artists away from the site.

Re: Micronational Art Society
From what I heard, and I remember this from a while ago, that once you post it to DeviantART they own it. People were running into problems selling or distributing their works while it was up on DeviantART and were pissed because they could no longer use it as a portfolio to link people to. As I recall if you wanted to own your work, you didn't post it on DeviantART.

Re: Micronational Art Society
I have a pretty big stock account, and a lot of DeviantART friends, and I can recall there being a bunch of people pulling a load of content because DevintART wasn't holding its end of the bargain. I was not effected, but I know a lot of people who moved on because of it.

Re: Micronational Art Society
... regardless, I don't think any of us are planning to sell our micronational-based art for money or use this shared DeviantArt account as an online portfolio for our works.

Re: Micronational Art Society
Actually, it's a group. So you can post there from your individual account. And yeah, if you remove your artwork from dA, you can use it everywhere, if the thing I posted above doesn't apply.
