Deviation Actions
If you are interested in buying prints from me I now use Fine Art America for that function. I've already had my first sell there to, while my deviantART sells remain at 0. fineartamerica.com/profiles/jo… You can request I post something to FAA, if you see something you like here and want available for print.
I will soon disable all prints here on dA. From a business prospective, I am not trying to make a living off these prints, but make money on the side, but when I produce nothing on this site and something on another, that causes change. I bought a dA year subscription last fall and honestly it is kind of depressing, how it is not very different from having no subscription at all. This is probably the last time for a while that I'll bu premium membership. I've been here on dA for more than 10 year, and at this time I plan to remain on dA and use it as an archive site, where pretty much all my work is posted. DeviantART made me what I am. I hope it does not get to where maintaining my presence on dA is not becoming a waste of my time.
My portfolio site will be my Flickr. www.flickr.com/photos/12711195… Only my best work will be posted here.
Overall I am most focused on getting my photography business off the ground.

Possible Limited DeviantART return may happen
Original plan was to purge and deactivate this account, but I am currently researching it's effectiveness a a piggy back to promote my FineArtAmerica prints account. In my nearly 2 decades of this account existing on deviantART I have never sold a single print, even more I've heard from many who have that any profit is very mini-cue. That being said to promote sales I focus on my FineArtAmerica, however I am researching to see if this lf deviantART can be used as a promotional tool. It all depends on average number of views. If the views are too low and I find it a waste of time I'll just deactivate and move on, if I find it useful I'll return but not as active in the community as I use to be. I have found other mediums to be much more vibrant and reliable than deviantART. https://fineartamerica.com/profiles/joseph-johns

Still miss me here? I see 500 watchers are still even in tact more than 5 years after I left deviantART! I still stop by out of curiosity, but it appears that to me deviantART has only become even less useful. Meanwhile if you want to see what I've been doing here's the place! https://fineartamerica.com/profiles/joseph-johns
Where am I today!
It's been nearly 3 years since any of you have heard from me, and I want to inform you of a spot I moved onto. Fine Art America https://fineartamerica.com/profiles/joseph-johns I am wanting to boost my views and sales and I have sold more prints than the 0 I sold in nearly a decade of being active here on dA. You can find me on Facebook as well. https://www.facebook.com/GeoLinaphotographyandproductions This is my Instagram handle which is new but rising pretty quickly. https://www.instagram.com/geolinaphotography/ For those of you who miss me here since I decided to ditch this platform in 2016 feel free to follow those pages! The odds of me returning to dA are sadly almost 0, but I am hoping to use the rest of this pages existence to forward to progress to my new pages. Eventhough I left dA I did get my start here as a 15 year old. But the future is now and sadly many much better platforms have surpassed dA. As for this account it will remain abandoned probably until I et
Last days of this account are coming.
I have been on hiatus from DeviantART for 2 years hoping for some notable improvements I login maybe twice a year just to lurk. I am not arriving at a decision that a few years back would have made me very sad, but now not so much. My works will continue. I had this account since I was 15, imagine that as time goes by my needs for an art sharing site exceeded this platform. Lack of audience did play a role too, as it seemed in recent years more of the My Little Pony fanbase seems to be taking over and there are not very many serious photographers, much-less sports action like myself.
It's not happening immediately, there's still images I wan

I have been here coming up on 8 years and have been very disappointed with the direction dA is going. It's becoming just another social media website and has little to do with the arts. dA staff is arrogant and uncommunicative towards premium members who have been here for years, so I now post very few new photographs. Unless there is evidence that dA staff will actually listen and respond to their own beta testers and premium members, it is unlikely that I will renew.
