Become a Beta Tester on DeviantArt!
Join the beta testing program to help test and improve future DeviantArt features! Beta testing is a cornerstone of DeviantArt’s history, and beta testers benefit the community by providing feedback and usage data. Through bug reports and insight shared during the testing stages, beta testers can help shape and improve site features. Any deviant can become a beta tester by adding this journal to their favourites. :+fav: If you decide later that you want to opt-out, you can do so by removing this journal from your favorites. :sherlock: How It Works Beta testers are among the first to see new features introduced to DeviantArt.

When there’s an open beta test, testers will receive a notification providing details about the feature being tested, the specific things they are being asked to

Chapter 1: An Introduction of Sorts
Lying there in the dirt, he wasn't sure what he hated more; the pain coursing through his limbs from falling, or the barely contained amusement the guy leaning over him was wearing on his face. Taking an inventory, he realized that aside from his clothing, he had nothing of value on him.
"You look lost," the smug and otherwise unremarkable guy standing over him eventually said in a cold and oddly distant voice.
"No, I just like lying out in the dirt in the middle of…" trailing off, he realized he didn't have anything to finish that with. Deciding that he was at the least, done lying in the dirt, he took the strangers proffered hand a

[FFBE] Entering the Arena - Part II
“What do we-” Lasswell began to ask before the air above them exploded once more into an avalanche of lightning that danced around the party. Nobody was hit, but it was severe enough to throw them off, giving the other team a chance to strike first, all of them firing their cannons into the air before dropping their barrels to face the team.
The air cleared as quickly as it filled and even the afterimage of lightning was immediately washed from their eyes as the booming blasts from their opponents' now forward-facing cannons cut through them. Rydia and the Magitech armored mage Terra took the brunt of their opponents' assault a

You're Invited To Try The New Sidebar
UPDATE: The opt-in period for the new sidebar has closed as of October 7th. Thank you to everyone who participated in this early opt-in period. The feedback we’ve received so far has been invaluable in helping us improve and optimize the sidebar. Please continue sharing your feedback! Moving forward, we’ll now be rolling out the new sidebar to a wider pool of deviants, so no more need to opt-in. Again, thanks so much to those who participated for helping us create a better DeviantArt experience! You’re invited to try a brand new sidebar that gives you quick access to some of your favorite features and groups! The Goal of The New Sidebar There are several ways to browse and consume content on DeviantArt, and with this update, our goal was to create a consistent experience across Browse (New and Popular), Search, Daily Deviations, Topics, Groups, and most importantly, deviants you watch. Bringing more attention to Groups was a big part of this update, and we have plenty more planned
The snowstorm was worse here. Worse than it had been only moments before, and there was not a single cloud in the sky. Holding tight to his cloak, Shiki yelled though the biting winds, back to the men huddled in the crevasse behind him.
"It is likely we approach the lair of a Frost Dragon!"
They had taken pains to avoid them, and it seemed they were not enough. He could not see their faces, but then, he did not have to. There were few enough tales surrounding the frost dragons of the Wolfsfang Mountains, creatures that commanded the ice and winds themselves. Few, because once encountered, not many lived to tell stories. Their objective
As she left the rear of the castle behind her in the morning dew, Anna unconsciously tightened the strap of the rucksack carrying the relic and the five grey orbs said to have some connection to it. What am I doing? she thought to herself, as she headed off towards the summoning stone. Calling for the Great Hero had been tried... many times by the Askran Kingdom... and not once had they responded. She wasn't sure why she felt the need to try it for herself, but here she was.
Drawing near to the Great Arch, she began to see the pillars that surrounded the stone come in to view. It had been quite some time since last she'd been here, but everyo
Hush-a-by baby…
Running through the woods he could still hear its voice… or whatever it was… whispering through the trees. Daylight had left long ago and this thing… it seemed content to stay just out of sight, whispering at him all the while.
And worse, the things it whispered, while sounding innocent enough, had some kind of… power… to them. With these newest words, the screaming he’d been doing, in the desperate hope that someone… anyone… would hear him, had stopped in his throat, and he could no more scream than he could fly. Even trying made it harder to breathe, which r

You and I can see a lot of journal skins present in our DA's Journal & Gallery Skins category till date but we see only a few of them are modern style designs. As, many of you probably know that I mostly like modern design for my journal skins. So, I want you to go crazy with your own creativity and do the same for this contest.
Many of you might wonder, what is modern style web designs anyway? :confused: Please mind that I'm using the word "web design" here because journal skins in DA are n
