DeviantART is proud to announce More Like This - a new way to explore deviantART. When you find a piece of artwork that you love, More Like This surfaces related artwork, artists, and Collections. With More Like This and our other new browse upgrades, deep-diving through the deviantART community's diverse collection of over 200 million deviations just got better.
We developed More Like This to make it easier to find the content you love. With over 100,000 new deviations being submitted daily, it's easy to get overwhelmed by the sheer amount of browsable artwork. More Like This allows you to discover corners of deviantART catered just to you, based on deviations you already love.
The viewing experience no longer stops after one image. With More Like This, you can choose to browse endlessly through a stream of artwork, changing your path each time you click "More Like This" on a deviation. If you love exploring artwork, you'll love More Like This.
More Like This is not image-recognition software. Instead, it looks at where an image exists on the deviantART social graph and finds deviations that are nearby. This means that members of the deviantART community help define the More Like This results. Explore the connections and insights of the deviantART community with every click.
When you organize results by artist, More Like This surfaces people that create artwork similar to what you’ve selected, allowing you to find and explore new talent!
With millions of Collections of artwork curated by the deviantART community, More Like This lets you organize results by Collections of Favourites from the community that are relevant to the artwork you select.
When using Browse or Search, hover over a deviation and select "More Like This" to see more content like that deviation. This means that you can select "More Like This" from More Like This results, allowing you to browse endlessly through a stream of related artwork!
More Like This buttons can also be found on deviation pages.
We've improved the left-hand navigation bar to include Popular and Newest options. For deviants who like their art to be larger than life, the new Full View mode allows deviations to be browsed through at a larger scale. Full View mode also provides the ability to favourite, collect, view comments, and participate in the discussion right from the browse page.
Our new Show More button allows you to scroll endlessly while browsing More Like This results. For those that prefer the original pagination interface, we've added an option to toggle between both modes. Your setting will be preserved as you browse.

So. Huge feature and has been promoted heavily, thus I know this will not be taken well as a comment. I fear I must make it, however: I don't like this feature. I came to DA to have an art gallery of my work and advertise my work. By slapping up 'hey, look at all this other work' on all my deviations, you are advertising others on my page and taking potential customers away.

To those that feel they must comment on how negative/inferior I feel my work is, the rule is "there is always someone better than you". I know what my work is, and am comfortable with it. It's simply bad marketing to shove competitors at your customers.

I believe that Premium members should have the option (if they do not already & I somehow missed this) to take this feature OFF their pages. It's not only taking people away by distracting them, it's just... well, distracting. I have some Flash Games up, and my previews are static. Others do not have static previews for their work, making the 'browse more like this' area a flashing, epileptic nightmare while people are trying to play my games!

Der Text, nicht nur dieser hier, ist sehr schlecht übersetzt! Meine Zeit ist zu kostbar um mich mit diesem Kauderwelsch zu befassen. Insgesamt ist devianART zu unübersichtlich. Das alles ginge schon besser aber Euch geht es ausschließlich um große Beteiligung, wie sich die Leute hier zurecht finden interessiert Euch,leider, nicht! Mit freundlichen Grüßen Günter

This is an interesting new feature, but It need some fixing and a disable function. I'm tired of looking at average non-offensive art and seeing politically extreme deviations in the more like this section.

Is there any way of disabling the More Like This feature for your own submitted work or any way of blocking certain deviations or categories?

I upload cartoons that aren't at all sexual yet these sexual pin-ups are showing up on the more like this feature on my deviations. They are distracting, they take away focus from my own art and are completely unrelated.

If you must have fanfiction not in my fandom displayed next to my work... for the love of GOD use some quality fanfiction instead of those abysmal "Anime Character X Reader" things, which are popular for reasons I can't fathom. Yes, I've read some, and yes, they suck. I think I liked it better when "More Like This" showed unrelated things that were at least from my gallery, because then people could at least see different types of my work.

Personally, I wish you'd never developed this feature.

I pay for a premuim account to have others work show up on my page and take people from my works on to others works instead on browsing through my Gallery????

I'm sure "More Like This" works for popular pieces, but my work is not popular and I get totally unrelated stuff showing up. Why couldn't you have used keywords or something? Then at least we'd be getting something in the same fandom, for example, instead of terrible "Hetalia Character X Reader" fanfiction and inflation art next to writing and art that has nothing to do with those. Personally, I hated this feature from Day One because it's so irrelevant and distracting.
