I think I should do the same. Post anything and everything in the fanart section! Even if it doesn't feel like a finished piece, sketches are nice as well. I must remember what I posted when I was young so that I post more fanart. Fancomics as well...hrmm
Idk where everyone is. Like TheLostSindar said, most people are moving on to other websites, including big artists. It would be good if they stayed here, and brought some of their fanbase from other websites over here.... ;3;
I feel like I draw a lot of comics and stuff, but I usually only post them to my world. orz MAYBE I'LL START POSTING MORE COMICS TO THE FAN COMICS SECTION, IDK...
I feel like a lot of people went off to college this year, though. All the middle schoolers who joined theO around 2007/2008 are suddenly college aged. :V;;;
GAH, I wish more people would join theO... ""orz I feel like theO's a much better place for wallpapers and e-card graphics and things like that than dA, but no one's really posting them and stuff. .m.

Bro, you are GREAT. The majority of the fan comics section is you. If only there were more people like you then the fan comic section wouldn't be so bare...
I don't think it is the summer. I thought that for a moment and then I remembered all the past summers were the times with the most activity because people had so much freetime during their vacations. School time was the least active.
I don't want to see it die either! ;m; I feel like tumblr is the most to blame because I haven't heard until recently a ton of artists moving to tumblr, even a lot of artists on deviantart.
My best guess is that because it's summer, school is out and maybe a lot of people are on vacation, or doing something else.
Asfsafh, I know there isn't a lot of new fancomics! I really need to make some new comics, but real life has been preventing me from working, and well, I might as a bit of an artist block as well. :/

It’s awful, isn’t it? I actually got on here one day and saw that there weren’t even 8 fanart pieces to fill the Top 8 section. It made me so sad! Fanart isn’t usually that scarce, but I know the other sections of the site are even quieter these days. I don’t know if everyone’s just losing interest and favoring other art sites (like deviantart or Tumblr) or what, but I wish things would liven up around here too. I don’t want to see this place die!
