April 10th: The bill has been vetoed!
April 2nd: The politicians in Arizona are about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users or be at a risk of lawsuits. Such system would be required to go through third party vendors, who in turn must go through a government database to verify every user's age. This is not only a major violation of privacy, but it also opens up a very real danger of identity theft through phishing schemes and other methods, not to mention that we would not be able to control any of that information to make sure it is permanently deleted after age verification is complete.
Unfortunately, Arizona is the state out of which e621 operates, which means that this law will almost certainly affect us if it is to pass. If want to help us ensure that this site can continue to serve you without being required to know who you are, please ask the Arizona governor to veto this bill.
Please, help us get the word out by letting others know about this issue.
For some further information on what the bill does have a look at https://action.freespeechcoalition.com/bill/arizona-hb-2586/
We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

MemberWhy does this guy always make pictures that are meant to be seen on 50 inch tvs instead of a regular sized computer monitor?

MemberWell, you mean 8k resolution displays. And resizing isn't too hard to do, I for one love that he posts the full-size image.

MemberIt would make sense, if actual information would be added to the picture. The artist should probably try to add anti-alias instead of using a unnecessary high resolution.
Don't get me wrong; I like pictures with high resolutions. But the additional pixels should also add value to the picture and not just be there to blow up the file-size.

MemberWell, the feet and head are done well, and the drawing technique is good, but the torso is wrong and something seems off about the legs, as if they're too human. Overall very nice, in my opinion.

BlockedYou wanna know something? He doesn't~! I've gone to his deviantart page and only some of his images are huge. The rest, some freaky person here on e621 keeps blowing them up to ridiculous sizes, then saying, "Well, you can always resize them." What they forget is that frequently resizing an image slowly degrades the resolution, leaving you with a blurry mess.
