My dA Transit Map by `pica-ae

CATEGORY: deviantART-Related/DeviousFUN:

The suggester states, "This is cool! Really well done & a fair bit of time went into it I'd say." Each "road" on the map leads to deviantART Categories. Take some time to look at the entire map. Interesting, detailed and fun to see how an enterprising deviant can create an imaginary deviantART city!

My dA Transit Map

Description

[edit] as some deviants suggested I added some more place names :XD: … and corrected some mistakes ^^

Well, well, well, what should I say? This is my deviantART gallery set up as a transit map. As the title suggests :XD:

I had wanted to do, and started but wipped, something similar before, using my dA stats for an infographic. 'Cos I like infographics. Some days ago I had the idea to turn it into a transit map. Yesterday I sat down and started.
I started using Vector and Typography and instead of my gallery used the overall galleries… Only soon to notice that I was insane to try and put the whole of dA into a transit map :omg: Let's face it: dA has at about 2000+ galleries and I wanted to stay sane. Or as sane as possible :giggle:
Anyway I soon decided to reduce it to the galleries I have submitted deviations to :) Much more sanity to keep that way :slow:

The lines and connections don't necessarily make sense and there are several "Miscellaneous" stops :la:

One question is left:

Do you like this enough to have your own?


If your answer is "Yes!" here is your chance! You can comission me, to have your own!
I don't mind if you are inspired by this and make your own, but you can save the work for a little money ;)
Even if this is some effort (going thru your gallery and laying out the map; 2 - 3 hours of work alltogether) I will offer this for a very fair price:
15€ or 20$ via paypal. [Sorry, I do not take points.]
If you are interested, send me a note :) I will probably write a journal entry with the same information later today :B
Also there will be a limited amount of comissions I will take, I guess 10 for now, so I can hold the "deadlines". I will have 1,5 weeks of free time from thursday on, so I will probably be quick :P

--

I enabled critiques cos it's the first time I ever did something like this and I would like to improve flaws or techniques, especially if I will do comissions I want them to be good :)
You can even do a critique where you draw into my image, upload to a image host and link me to them. This will make knowng what you talk about easier :la:

Anyway, hope you like this :peace: :heart:

Wow just wow. I love this concept <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/l/l…" width="15" height="15" alt=":lol:" title="LOL"/> It's rare I'm tempted to Critique much less twice in one week <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/let…" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)"/> But you have caught my attention so here goes:

First off as a Transit Fan I love the concept of deviantART Transit. It would truly be my favorite Transit Agency <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)"/> I also love the concept of this map. It was most clever of you and perhaps one of the best laid out and most well designed Transit Maps I have ever read.

Not only does this show your grasp on things dA but your aptitude for planning things out ^^ You are Truly deserving of your DD and I congratulate you on a ob very well done <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":-)" title=":-) (Smile)"/>
