How to Remove 'More Like This'So last week I wrote a journal on the intrusive eyesore that is the "More Like This" feature. Tons of people complained to HQ that we preferred it as a button, and why.
Our Suggestions:
- Revert it back to a button. It's still button for a few Deviants, how hard is it to take it back to that?
- Make it collapsible or Drop Down menu.
- Move it further down the page, past the artists information and "More from this artist".
- Make it smaller than the the thumbnails of the artists own work.
- Make it customizable so we can choose what we feature beside our own artwork. As of now, it's advertising our old crap AND Scraps. (as well as other people's art we don't want there) I had to store my Scraps so they wouldn't show up in it

- show LESS thumbnails.
- The distribution of exposure is terribly unfair. many people are forced to advertise others, while some deviants only advertise their own work.
It's a good feature, and good idea, no

9 reasons to appreciate ACRYLICS1. UNIVERSALITY - Acrylic are probably the most versatile of paints. You can thin them with water and use as watercolor (they will remain permanent upon drying, unlike watercolor), apply them in full strength, create textures.

2. COMBINABLE - This medium is very suitable to be combined with anything you wish - watercolor, ink, pencils, oils... Free your imagination and experiment!
3. NUMEROUS SUITABLE SURFACES - Acrylics can be used on paper, canvas, wood, metal and many more surfaces (this is true, even though they don't adhere towards some surfaces as promptly as oils). This is a great advantage, when you get used to this medium, you can paint at whatever material you've got available.
4. DON'T STINK - That's right, all of you that have experienced headaches caused by oil paint might just appreciate an acrylic vacation!
5. FAST DRYING TIME - Composition doesn't seem right after you put down your first layer? This is not a problem, wait half an hour

How to make a great Journal featureJournal Feature Tutorial
How to make a great Journal feature!
This article has been written for #projecteducate by `miontre.
Featuring other artists in your Journal is a great thing to do, because everyone wins! Not only are you supporting other artists by giving them some extra exposure, but you can also earn some exposure for yourself and make new friends too. Additionally, those who view your feature have the opportunity to find some new art and artists.

Therefore, it pays to make your Journal features the best they can be. Making a really good Journal feature can involve a lot of time and work - planning, collecting artwork, arranging the artwork in a Journal, publication, and promotion. Taking these steps instead of merely dragging in thumbs from your Favourites will result in an appealing and rewarding Journal feature. In this tutorial, we're going to produce a feature with images arranged like this:

How to Remove More Like Thisby `parallellogic

Resources & Stock Images / Tutorials / deviantART Tutorials / Journal and Gallery Tutorials

This is a procedure to remove the "More Like This" section next to each deviation and the "More Like This" overlay that appears at the bottom of thumbnails. I don't want to be scrolling to click the 'download' button, so this is my solution

Oh my Goodness Thank you So Much for this!
Some of us just would rather appreciate the artwork
right in front of us, but I understand how some would
find it as a useful feature, for me it's distracting!

~Ixi-Nox Jun 1, 2013 Student Digital Artist

This worked like a charm! Thank you so much, I never hated the More Like This feature, but I want to see more from the artist, not similar pieces from other people. If I was looking for art of one theme I'd watch a group!
Thank you again! (:

I love it I love it I love it.

(And I duly contributed my $5.00 for Stylish.)

Oh wow! I'd almost forgotten what it was like to have a good clean DA page. Thanks so much for figuring this out and for sharing it!

Thank you very much for your support

May I ask when you submitted the Help Desk request and/or if you have received a reply?

=pearwood May 27, 2013 Hobbyist Photographer

Submitted yesterday, so I don't expect to hear anything for a day or two.

=pearwood May 27, 2013 Hobbyist Photographer

Bingo! Thank you very much.

Thank you very much for this and your time, I really needed it! ^^

Honestly... I wish this "More like this" section was OPTIONAL for EVERYBODY at least, not obligatory... mostly if you blocked some person you don't feel like promoting from your account and said person appears everwhere in your deviations because of the similar tags we both use (my particular case)... the idea is really unpleasant to me... I wish this "More like this" section considered blocked people...

I know the rest of users around dA have no fault if I block someone, but I think I also have the right to not promote some person I don't want to... at least in my own account.

Well, it's just my personal opinion of course.
