Oh, it's worse than that OP.

Deviantart censors the shit out of everything.

Pixiv doesn't.

Until now, people didn't use pixiv because it was in Japanese.

Now they'll flock over.

Just stick to searching tags in Japanese and you'll avoid most western artists though

I didn't know pixiv had translation

This is horrible. Westerners just can't do art for shit.

You don't really know how Pixiv rolls, OP.

It's like a pyramid system. Famous guys always get all the views and goodies. Scrubs? Not a single fuck given for entire life.

>> No.7053433

Devientart users were already on pixiv, working pixiv was retard level easy even when it was in jap mode.

It just happened a few days ago. I was going there like usual and noticed, "Whoa, an English UI?" Lots of stuff is still in Japanese, but it'll make it a heck of a lot easier for anyone to sign up now, that's for sure.

>> No.7053454

Pixiv was already shit, english won't change much.
The Nico and Pixiv userbases are the gaia level of Japan.

And you know what? I don't give a flying fuck. Most of my favourite Touhou artists upload things there and I enjoy them.

Besides, /jp/ calling anything shitty is truly pot-kettle-black.

I wouldn't mind if at least foreigners helped defuck that awful and inefficient tagging system.

The worst is that because of different characters, there are like 10 tags with the same meaning.

>> No.7053520

you know i really just get stuff from the boorus as they do a good job of filtering stuff.

>> No.7053729

>>7053431
totally untrue. it has nothing to do with nationality.
though i somehow understand how one can be under such impression, since not that many western artist draw manga style those who do often shouldn't draw at all.
Besides deviantArt has a huge community so there is a bigger chance of having shitty art obviously.
But instead of just viewing daily rankings or things that got posted on danbooru, you should just pick whatever tag, search it on pixiv and see just how many scraps is there.

and btw, only the most basic things got translated, majority is in Japanese anyway, i don't understand the fuss

>> No.7053780 [DELETED] 

I feel safer and protected keeping to the Japanese language setting. Much more glorious, and I feel like a minority. So much fun.

The art for pixiv is exclusively defined. Buttfrustrated English lovers.
deviantart = international art in any form
pixiv = drawings and illustrations of local culture

This. Fucking this. When I bought Pixiv Annual 2010 and saw how many artists were Western, I was amazed. Nobody would be able to tell unless they were told. When it comes down to it, if you're good, you're good.

>> No.7054124

I've seen quite a few good chinks (you faggots probably would think they are japanese since you can't read shit either way) Westerners, not so much.
