Ok I figured it out.They do allow you to activate or deactivate your entire gallery so people can or can't share all or none of your images.You can even choose what images to share if you want but there is a huge problem here nonetheless as I have already spoken with twelve members there who did not know this change had gone into affect and were quite pissed to find out that their images might be all over the net with Deviant Arts permission to use as you want.The image has the Deviant Arts trademark slapped on it so that every time the image is used you're promoting their site whether you gave permission or not. Now for anyone who says this is ok,the simple truth is that they could have set this program to have all images set to inactive and let the members choose...instead they set all images by default to active so that members who don't know have their images plastered all over the internet promoting DA and artists who are not even online anymore who left their images posted on these sites to share with the members there are not even aware that DA has done this.By law Deviant Arts has to inform you if they are using your images for promotional purposes and you have to agree.If you joined when they had TOS saying they can use your images as they please then maybe they have a bit of a leg to stand on,but just because they credit the artists doesn't mean the artists granted permission to have their works on sites and phones all around the world.Tis a good way to promote your work maybe...but legally you have to give permission and they cannot just take your work to use as they please. I am concerned about this because this is a first step that could see other big sites like Renderosity do this as well.I was not informed Deviant Arts was doing this,when I joined Deviant Arts none of this had even been conceived and I am very angry that any site would officially sanction or conduct themselves in such a manner when art theft is such a huge issue today.True,anyone can steal your art by right clicking...but when the site does this and grants permission to everyone to use your images without gaining your permission first~somethings wrong with that.

If the end goal of learning is genius...why are most geniuses failures at learning?
