Seniority has been a cornerstone of DeviantArt since its early years, and is an award given to those who have made their mark on the community. These outstanding deviants have been recognized for their level of interaction, helpfulness with others, kindness, sincerity, and many other notable traits. These deviants can be recognized by the medal icon that appears next to their username, and in 23 years, fewer than 2,000 deviants have received Seniority. The following deviants, having shown a kindred spirit that has led to continued positive community interaction and involvement, are the most recent recipients of Seniority. Please join us in congratulating them! @Grim-Castlaire Though @Grim-Castlaire joined DeviantArt just three years ago, their impact is hard to overstate. An active member of the adoptables community, they’re always supportive of other artists and frequently suggest works to be featured as Daily Deviations. @Foolish-Hearts A prolific fan artist

Daily Challenges launched in September, giving artists an art prompt each day to fuel artistic ideas and build good creative habits. Over 200 challenges and hundreds of thousands of creations later, now’s your chance to suggest ideas for future challenges! How to Suggest a Daily Challenge Share a tag in the comments that you think should be a daily challenge! If your suggestion gets added to the calendar, a DeviantArt team member will let you know!
