Posting Images

...Maybe *here* is actually not where most ArtRage users post, share, and discuss artwork.

I suspect you are right in that
ArtRage dose have Facebook and Instagram accounts where a lot of users are posting their finished works to.
Not to mention users posting to their own social media accounts, as I occasionally do to mine.
The world changes…
But what I do feel forums like these are much better at, is problem solving, advice giving, general tips and tricks and asset sharing.
My experience of dealing with those aspects on social media sites is that such things are soon lost and buried and difficult later to find specific questions again and their solutions.

@markw

thank you for sharing this update! I'm glad this will clear up any anxieties about discontinued development. I hope the team enjoys the holiday season and has good progress going on.

for image upload, I personally prefer imgur.com - it's been around for too long and it's reliable - but there're other options also available.

#artrage twitter hashtag used to be on the active side - no instagram levels of engagement, but ig has been notoriously deaf and unfriendly for artists for a good while now.
pinterest has turned into an ai-bloated cloaca in less than a year, and my own experience with that one has been disappointing overall - I obviously joined it way too late, but still.
artstation has gone downhill ever since they did nothing with the AI art artist strike about a year, or so, ago;
it also requires paying a subscription fee to get better circulation for the projects shared, otherwise there's just too much stuff going down at once; most people liking your content will be bots from someone in Vietnam looking to boost their clout.

there're several art hubs that prohibit posting ai art - most of larger art subreddits would fall into this category;

cara.app is a website that looks like a combined artstation and twitter experience, it also promotes use of a built-in glaze tool to protect your art from being scrapped by ai-miners for those who care about this specific kind of thing;

nothing specific to artrage, though - and the /r/artrage is a pretty empty space at the moment.
I'd imagine a new version will liven up the engagement.

artrage also maintains their community page over on facebook, you're welcome to share art over there if you have an account.

there were other attempts to launch an art platform with artist's experience first and foremost in mind - but I tend to give up and avoid when I see they/them/xir people running the space.
