So DeviantArt has a new really shitty layout. This is all fine and dandy, except that the "popular" images on the front page are now being displayed by number of hits instead of number of favorites, and thus this image by SyberStyk. (And for the record, when she says "muscle chick," hoo boy, is she not kidding.)

The replies are pretty tame to start -- a lot of people confused on how to view the full image, and a couple others just commenting in general, until someone finds it hilarious, which SyberStyk disapproves of. From there they get going with things like "dont be all whiney on dA" and "the 'muscles' just seem to be random lines that were slapped on in a lame attempt. Not trying to sound rude or anything."

AngrySpitefulBitches shows up quite a few times, including in reply to some yahoo commenting in fan-japanese and wondering if all anime fans were "born with giant, hiddeous frog heads..." He/she also agrees with the sentiment that everyone saying "ew!" needs to grow up.

It continues with how people at DA need to start looking at "real art," and how fetish art showing up on the front page is a conspiracy of some sort.

But that's not all, folks! There's WTF and liberal use of the puking emoticon, which really seems to frustrate the artist. She's also told the picture was not necessary, and is given probably unwanted advice from a person in art school.

It finally seems to pan out with such descriptions as a pathetic joke, sick, wrong and sad.
