DeviantArt is a site which gives artists, photographers, and writers the opportunity to share their work with thousands of people. I have been using this site for a few years now and have posted some photographs that I have taken. What originally caught my attention was the wide array of categories available. There are categories for any conceivable type of art media. People have posted photos, free-hand artwork, even icon sets and backgrounds for your computer. This site allows people all over the world to see your work and connects people who have similar interests. I consider this site to be popular culture because it provides a forum for artists of all kinds to showcase their work and allow others to comment and even purchase their work. DeviantArt has opened my eyes to different forms of photography and even given me new ideas for photos.

I agree. I lost count of the number of desktop pictures I have found on Deviantart. My favorite thing to do is to look at the Cityscapes section of the site. It has a bunch of pictures people have taken of city skylines and things like that.
