NSFW art on main or not? (personal journal entry)
3 years ago
General
Yeah, hi again! I'm just babbling my own personal thoughts here because I've been thinking about posting all of my new art on this account only since I've found my second account to be a bit useless (has less followers, faves, watches, comments) and it feels like extra work to keep up. Not to mention do people even find it properly? Is it hard to associate the art on another account belonging to a certain artist?
A little history behind my 2nd account for adult art: Before FA had an option to make folders for your art, it was difficult to separate SFW and NSFW content (unless you use the tool in the upper right corner to hide all NSFW content which I personally never remember to use). This was a nuisance for me personally because I wanted to keep my gallery somewhat clean and organized so I decided to move all my NSFW art to their own secondary account and remove it from my main gallery which I wanted to keep as SFW back then. Of course it also caused a loss of many MANY comments & favorites which wasn't a nice thing but what could you do. 🤷♂️
Things have obviously changed since then and I've changed - I don't find NSFW art to be a problem anymore and I honestly don't give a fuck if someone doesn't like it if they see it on my account - you can always either turn around or use the option to hide it. My art is for those who share the same interests, whether it's SFW or NSFW. There's everything for everyone and you don't have to like everything - just don't be a dick about it.
I had "a phase", if you will, when I didn't want to draw or even SEE any porn. I was disturbed, I was not well. It's all different nowadays.
I actually have a question for my followers too if you want to partake into my ramblings: What do you think of second accounts for porn/fetish art? Is it a good thing or do you find it a little confusing/impractical? Would it be better to just post whatever you make on one account so it'd be easier to find and link to the artist?
And no, there's no "right" or "wrong" answer to this. I'm just curious what people think and prefer. :)

All, who cares; they'll know already. There is no point, anymore. That's a good move.
