Haha, maybe others have noticed this but... are we sure the number of views on DeviantArt are accurate??


Like it used to be months ago that I'd rarely post on Deviantart because I could get like 20 views on a thing. Over time, like months, it could get into the hundreds after enough people searching and viewing...


But now, myself and others are often getting 400+, 1K, or 2K in a single day or two??


It's maybe a big of a problem that they round page views to the nearest K up or down... I think most of us wanna know the exact number so we can keep track.


But yeah, that sure doesn't sound right. Especially if we still only get a few views, favorites, and comments after hundreds or thousands of views? Like... is it bots or a glitch? Definitely one or the other. owo Anyone else noticing this kinda thing?

Hello, small journal - hope you're all doing well and staying safe! I've been working from home the last few months, likely going back soon, still working on Boxer Beats and another RPG story I'll be sharing eventually! Also been Animal Crossing obsessed with almost 420 hours, so feel free to add me on the Switch! (7486-4715-6690)


Maybe I should make an art comic about this, but for now, text:


I hope people can imagine the things that I would draw, and know that maybe eventually I will! If there's something cool you'd like seen in my style, or something you kinda wanna see me draw but are polite enough not to ask (thank you!), whether it's something I like and you know I'm into, or something I've never heard of or might not even enjoy personally - I hope people at least sense the potential not just for myself, but every other artist and writer out there!


There are so many ideas I have, and so many ideas other people would like to see - and then there's the reality of how much stuff gets made. I mostly focus on Boxer Beats since it's a huge project I've spent years on, but I still try to doodle daily. I've got stuff I've wanted to draw for years and haven't, ideas from months, weeks, days, and hours ago! I just get so many ideas myself, I can't draw them all. Pile on whatever porn and things you'd like to see from me - and there's just more art than one hamster can produce. I wish I could do it all! And this is why I sketch and doodle so many little things, things not in color, or not shaded, quick fun ideas (on top of all the quick discord doodle I do with my friends.)


I'm glad I get as much out as I do, I wish I could do more - but I can't draw all day. I do my best to be productive, but with work all the time, video games, being there for friends, a bit of time to relax... we only have so many hours in a day. Before the quarantine, it'd be like... the last 6 hours of my day was all the free time I had, and it couldn't all go to art. So, I got limits like everyone else, and try to get as much out as I can - but I always think about all the unexplored ideas, comics, and porn I could be making. I'm sure you guys followed me for something (I appreciate em all!) and if you're waiting for certain types of art from me, I hope I get to it eventually! Just please understand, I only have so much time to do so many things. Even if I don't make the art you'd like, ideally, I'd love to! I just want to make things that make people happy. (: I also wanna make fun, positive porn and naughty cute scenarios, since the world already has enough negativity and stress. I wanna do my best to be nonjudgmental and learn all about the world around me, and continue to! Since, I never wanna become old and crusty and critical of everything.


Anyway, a few tangents there - I sure feel like at some point, I could set up like, a drop box of ideas, something like tumblr where people, and myself, could just put in a ton of fun little art ideas they'd love to see, and I'd have way too many, and couldn't do them all anyway... X3 But it'd be fun to hear about! But for now, I just wanted to say thanks, and keep in mind, we all would do so much more if we could! If we had the time, the energy, the ability, the motivation - whatever we're missing. (: It's not something I ever see people talk about, but something cool to be aware of! Haha, if you read all that - you're amazing! For everyone else who skips these walls, watch em answer this random short question at the bottom (which you can still answer if you'd like!)


So!

If you could make/draw/write anything right now, what sorta things would you do? (:

What aren't you able to do, but wish you could?

Yo! For my birthday, I'm opening up a site for Boxer Beats!

boxer-beats.com 

I'll be posting art and stories for my characters both here, and on my own website, just as an easy way to keep it organized. :3
I added some extra stuff there too like character bios, a cool VN my friend Reiku made where you can date the characters, and an oekaki!

hammyverse.boxer-beats.com/

Inspired by Miiverse, I wanted folks to be able to respond to posts with drawn comments. But that was complicated, so Bosky helped me set up an oekaki (thanks to Waccoon!) - so folks can draw stuff and post there! He helped set up cool pixel pallets and stuff - it's old-fashioned, but that's what I like about it. :3 If you don't have a drawing program, that's a free one you can use.

I'm not very technical, a lot of this was made by templates and helpful folks around me! I'll try and stay aware of any issues it has, but good luck managing 'em. >w> I also kinda hope these don't get too big because I dunno how to handle big websites sorry. Anyway, hope you're all well~!

Who only follows me on DeviantArt?

I figure by now most people probably follow me on some other website. Hopefully it's only a few people who are DeviantArt purists!

I use tumblr the most, but it's 18+ only: oxnards.tumblr.com
I post on FurAffinity frequently: www.furaffinity.net/user/nishi
Not a fan of Twitter but it's easy to post to so: twitter.com/NishiOxnard
And I post mostly just adult stuff on InkBunny: inkbunny.net/Nishi

DeviantArt takes the longest, and has stricter limits about posting clean art, so I only post it in this slower 5th place if it seems extra good. Just curious if a lot of foks are missing out or if you're already seeing me in other places. :3
Hope you guys're doin' good!

Me: *Posts art forever ago under mature tags*
Commenter: *Digs up old art with mature filter off* I'M TOO YOUNG TO BE SEEING THIS!
Me: *Visits their page to check for trolling*
Commenter: *Requesting Inflation and foot paw art from everyone on their page*

That's DeviantArt for you.
(But really please anyone under 18 use a mature filter that's what it's there for.)

For everyone else, just a reminder I post mostly on tumblr (it's adult so 18+ folks only):
oxnards.tumblr.com
