This is the place where you can personalize your profile!
But, how?
By moving, adding and personalizing widgets.
You can drag and drop to rearrange.
You can edit widgets to customize them.
The bottom has widgets you can add!
Some widgets you can only access when you get a premium membership.
Some widgets have options that are only available when you get a premium membership.
We've split the page into zones!
Certain widgets can only be added to certain zones.
"Why," you ask? Because we want profile pages to have freedom of customization, but also to have some consistency. This way, when anyone visits a deviant, they know they can always find the art in the top left, and personal info in the top right.
Don't forget, restraints can bring out the creativity in you!
Now go forth and astound us all with your devious profiles!
First off, if you're here because you just got a tonne of s from me, have no fear. I'm not stalking you.
Chances are that I was linked to your profile from the journal of someone I watch, or I saw something of yours in the Daily Deviations, or your art was added to a group I watch.
I have a policy. Whenever I add someone to my Watch List, I take a quick tour of their Gallery, to familiarize myself with their work, and to get a bit of background art. I refer to these fav-alanches as 'raids.'
If I've 'd your art, but haven't commented, it's probably because I've got a lot of messages to get through, and only twenty minutes before I have to be out the door, or in the shower or something.
There's no need to thank me for the fav, I fav'd your art to thank you for uploading it in the first place.
Now that you know what's going on, if you live in America, follow [THIS LINK] and sign the petition. Then, follow [THIS LINK] and find your local representative. E-mail them, write them, phone them, let them know what you think.
Finally, and this is for those who don't live in the U.S. too, go [HERE] and download the associated .txt file which contains all of the coding and links used in this Journal. Repost. Get everybody watching this video. Share any way you can. This is a very big deal.
(Yes, I'm a little late to the party, I know. Blame the Hunger Games novels. >.>)
No offence, but don't spam faves. It's obnoxious and shows you really don't care about the work you're faving. Also, it's annoying to the artist to go into their inbox to the anticipation of numerous comments or faves from various people only to find that it was just one trigger happy person. who probably doesnt even care enough to choose a select few that he/she likes the most.

"is all that we see or seem, but a dream within a dream?" ☺
I approach my favourites collection less as "best artworks ever of all time," and more as "works I would like to view again." That's what I use my favourites for, so I can easily view things I enjoy looking at when I feel like it, without having to dig through a shedload of Sonic "fanart" and Pokemon recolours on the front page.
Your gallery is largely comprised of such pieces. I'm terribly sorry if your talent is an inconvenience to you.

I'm not an arsehole! If you are offended by something I type, bearing in mind that typing carries no inflections of its own, have the little voice that reads everything to you in your head say it in a lighter tone. See, isn't that better?
