Ep 14: Finding Your Passion (w/ RossDraws)

From playing with his dog to "Color Dodge," @rossdraws has become one of the most well-recognized faces of the online art community. In the fall, we were able to sit down with Ross, and get his tips on growing an online audience and staying true to your passion. Listen: MP3 // YouTube // Google Play // Stitcher // Spotify // Libsyn // Apple Podcasts All episodes of the DeviantArt Podcast: http://bit.ly/DeviantArtPodcast The positivity and excitement for art that @rossdraws possesses is undeniable. From speaking with him at conventions and DeviantMeets in the past, we would have never guessed how expectations from his family and himself caused him to nearly give up art forever. We were excited he opened up to us, and we were thrilled to celebrate both his recent one million follower mark on YouTube and his upcoming book based around his original character, Nima. Featuring: Ross Tran: @rossdraws Matt Buchholtz: @ggMattB Mentions: @ClementSauve @cheeks-74 @Endling

dA Guide: Text Formatting

- - - - - - - - - - UPDATE for January 2020: I created this guide in 2011, so you'll have to take it with a grain of salt since dA has updated a bazillion things since then LOL. It now looks like many codes don't work in Literature submissions anymore,  (or disable the "Eclipse" version of the site and show the old site instead), so some of the demonstrations here only look like regular text.  But they should display properly if you copy/paste them in the comments.   I'm so glad to see how many of you wonderful people still utilize this resource, so I wish you the best and encourage you to go ahead and experiment to see what works and what do
