SHOULD dA MAKE HAVING A CLUB SYSTEM A PRIORITY?


A visual suggestion of dA Club System: [link]

Club Owners and Members have many reasons to ask a dA Club System in dA:

1. It's really absurd and shameful to see sometimes in certain clubs reported pics as "Art theft/Non permission" if Members send to club a Note giving their permission saying: "Please, I would like to submit this pic in club [link]. Thank you!" This situation is really inadmissible!!! Read what happened in this Slayers Club [link] That really means that a club could be banned for multiple "violations"??? Because you know, all pics in a Club are property of their respective artists ¬¬' Some clubs are asking a permission in original pic, in this other club for example [link] you can read in "How to submit" section this sentece: "Under your pictures in artist comment(if you can do it) write that you give permission to the Club!"

2. [link] It could be nice for a Club system this option, on top of page: "Membership" of "Join Club". That way we all don't need to waste time with notes, and if a member wants to submit stuff could do it thanks to a "submit deviation" option. Club owners don't need to spend a lot of time uploading art submissions, and, if the owner doesn't considere suitable the pic for some reason (for example, if pic brakes club rules or dA policies), he/she could reject said submission [link]

3. [link] As well, people who select "Membership" or "Join Club" option figure automatically in a club Members List. That way, things are clearer, we don't need to send "Join" notes, club owners don't need to waste their time pasting all members icons in journal and checking if member wants to be or not to be a membrer and if member has or hasn't added the Club-Icon in his/her journal too [link] It would be nice too if Member-Icons are automatically added to Club "Member list" and Club-Icon in member's "Club Section" (supposedly available in her/his own account)

4. Club gallery pieces should have too an appropiate system of Favourites, you all know some users add to their favourites club submissions instead of following the link to the original piece. Faving art as well as devwatching a deviant allow the artist to continue his work, improving, etc... All support should be directed to the artist. With an appropriate club system, members could be directly sent to original pieces. Club owners spend their time having troubles with people who add club submissions to their favs and/or with original artists. Sometimes we get angry answers and even insults in return ¬¬' With a dA Club System, if you wish to comment or fav, you only could do it in original piece. Clubs only shows members' art and people is linked to original pic if they're interesed in. A Club's Gallery is here to show the work, not to be popular!

Although at the moment we only can read this in Help Desk about clubs [link] , months ago, the dA administrators $Moonbeam13 and $spyed mentioned they had started developing the groups system in these journals (check her polls in journals: [link] and [link] for example)... but nothing for quite a while.

Click here: >>>In dA news...<<< Please, if you're a dA usser, a member and/or club owner who supports this proposal, if you wish you can Answer this poll [link] and/or Sign here [link] It's too easy and quick.

Clubs deserve a dA Club System. Club are one of the the best way to sort and enjoy specific art and the most important, a way to show art for artists who want to submit their artworks.

Thanks everybody for your collaboration!
