News: Feb 26, 2025 Show

Feb 26th:A new bill in Arizona is making its way through the Senate that would force sites like e621 to implement mandatory age verification for all users—or face potential lawsuits. This system would require third-party vendors to verify every user’s age through a government database. Not only is this a massive violation of privacy, but it also introduces serious risks, including identity theft through phishing schemes and other malicious methods. Worse still, we would have no control over ensuring that user data is permanently deleted after verification.

Since e621 operates out of Arizona, this law would almost certainly impact us if it passes. If you want to help ensure that we can continue serving you without being forced to collect personal information, we urge you to contact Arizona’s senators and ask them to vote NO on this bill.

Please help spread the word about this issue and encourage others to take action.

    See its stuff like this that intimidates me when it comes to learning to draw.

    This has more to do with the composition, rather than the actual skill involved. They're showing how the composition leads your gaze. You can get good at drawing without skill in composition, it just gives the flow and presentation more clarity.

  • Some artists: "I used advanced drawing, art theory, and scene building techniques to draw in the eyes of my viewers and guide them along the picture using obscure yet very prominent points of references that read like a book... all while incorporating it entirely into the idea of the pose itself!"

    Me when I make a scene: "Hehe... boobs go brbrbrbrbrbr"

    I seriously applaud artists that take time, calculate and formulate poses and drawn images that actually use art theory and such. Shits amazing... i kinda just think of a pose and go from there x.x not really thinking about art theory to compose the image itself, but I do indeed try to focus attention to certain areas, not so much guide the viewer though xD

    Yep. It's kinda what takes any art from just good to having that really standout, subconscious appeal and line of thought (much like movies, where scene composition can make moments more emotive and memorable)
