Description I have always wanted this as a feature so I though I might as well put it out there. ♥

How often have your deviations perhaps received thousands of views/favs but barley gained any watchers from it?
Why? People are lazy to a T. It´s nothing to hide. As much as they love your stuff they have other stuff to attend to and going to your page to watch you might slip their mind.

I just feel with this people can watch right away if they like what they are seeing without having to go to your page. 

Do you think this is a good idéa? Please share your thoughts!



I thought of having it above the name first but it looked cluttery so I think to the side of the deviation would be an easy spot to see and reach.

Because they deserve more spotlight! /////v\\\\

Yeah i use it as indicator if i already watch the deviant or not. But i always +watch in the gallery after viewing the whole gallery.

W... What!!

There is this cool feature now on DA!!

Whatttttt!!

And I only notice it after I see this post of yours!!

Look like I am on hiatus for too long and miss many things on DA.

Actually I just wondering for a while now. Even though I did not upload anything for half a years, whyyyy the number of watch still going up.

Now you solve the paradox for me!!

And yes, why I am reading this post only now. It because here I am just currently going through all the remain watch items of mine. XD

Slimymush [2014-12-23 20:07:35 +0000 UTC]

Indeed,this would probably prompt more people to watch than the average amount. One can place it just above the "more from deviant" box, which would direct people's eyes to the rest of the deviations. With just a quick glance, the user can get an idea of whether the artist is someone he or she wants to watch or not.

An excellent idea.

KuroAdoptionsCenter [2014-12-15 20:55:07 +0000 UTC]

They should also have so that you can unwatch a lot of people at the same time , because it gets annoying going through 100330 things to unwatch aftera  while.

And it would be nice with an 'erase entire gallery' option.

Oh... i wanted something ... like they follow the deviation, and they get updated of every comment, update, edit, reply that appears in the deviation. Like following the deviation.

RhiannonOeuvre [2014-12-06 11:14:10 +0000 UTC]

Yes, it's a great idea! At the same time, would it stop people from clicking on the artist's homepage to see their deviations on display?

That's a fantastic idea ; o ;
Not only is it convenient to somewhat lazy people ( I'm one of 'em ; w ; ),
but it also kills two birds with one stone! :3
Aaaah, this needs to be implemented.
