How to get a Daily Deviation on deviantART
How I did it: This is my accidental success: http://ehmaysink.deviantart.com/art/words-61017225
I made it in Paint Shop Pro one Saturday afternoon when I was very bored. I didn't expect much reaction to it at all, and suddenly, I was getting comments like crazy from people telling me how much they loved it. It was insane! One day, I logged in and saw over 700 messages on my account: I thought it was a glitch in the system. But the number kept growing. "Holy Ticonderoga, I got a DD!"
It was pretty epic.
Lessons & tips: Don't try for a DD. If I can stumble upon one with an amateur typography, you may be surprised by the attention your work receives. Make art as an expression of who you are. Whatever accolades you receive are second to the joy of creating.
