You know what's annoying? When you post fanart to tumblr where it goes mostly or entirely ignored, only to see the same fanart posted by other people getting plenty of attention.

I don't know how to counter this development but let me state for the record that as an artist I find it frustrating and it pisses me off. It's getting to the point where to find the feedback for my fanart I would have to self-google my name on tumblr. I thought getting my own tumblr account would help in that at least some of the feedback would find its way to my inbox, but it makes actually no difference. I'm not gonna bother with crossposting any more, waste of time.

Yeah, I've had that happen. Though sometimes if they credit dA as source on their Tumblr at least the number of dA favs also rises noticeably. It's still not very efficient to get feedback.

Haha, really not efficient. I just now saw that one piece rose from about 50 hits when I last looked to over 2000, gotta be due to the tumblr links. But I only look at the hit count for the first day or two after posting, any hits after that will go unnoticed unless people fave or comment.
