This is the place where you can personalize your profile!
But, how?
By moving, adding and personalizing widgets.
You can drag and drop to rearrange.
You can edit widgets to customize them.
The left side has widgets you can add!
Some widgets you can only access when you get a premium membership.
Some widgets have options that are only available when you get a premium membership.
We've split the page into zones!
Certain widgets can only be added to certain zones.
"Why," you ask? Because we want profile pages to have freedom of customization, but also to have some consistency. This way, when anyone visits a deviant, they know they can always find the art in the top left, and personal info in the top right.
Don't forget, restraints can bring out the creativity in you!
Now go forth and astound us all with your devious profiles!
__--The Stoic-Zombie Critique of Dylandorf's pictures--__
: dramatic music here :
Your cat and scenery pictures are fine, looking through your gallery the problems that stand out are when you have human subjects.
1. Some of your shots could be more dynamic if you lined up your ' thirds ' 2. Often you're outside and the backgrounds are too busy and it distracts from your subject.
These only apply to when your subject is human, I don't see these problems with the cat. If your taking pictures 'on the fly' then lining up your thirds and your surroundings are not things you really have control over, but if you're building a photography portfolio, others will not take that into consideration. A big part of photography is setup, that's why professional photographers work in studios; they can prep backdrops, lights, and the model/subject have an idea of whats going on along with the photographer before the shoot even starts.
I'm not saying you can only be a photographer with a studio, the point I'm trying to make is prep for a shot. One of the things you could do to help with the busy backgrounds is reduce your depth of field, or if you can change what's behind the person or simply change locations. __--end critique--__
No, thanks I really do appreciate it, any critique that can help me become better is welcomed. I think a few of the "people" pictures, i just had my aperature really low for some reason. Which would account for the busy backgrounds, but i know what you mean. Thanks!
