I always see pretty Anime fan art pictures in users profile and i wonder where do you get them?
I only know about deviantart.

Is there any other places you get your images? care to share?

Thanks

Danbooru/Konachan/oreno imouto
are the most commonly used ones, as far as I know.

Do note that they may be NSFW, especially danbooru.

You can use Safebooru if you don't like NSFW. http://safebooru.org/

Yeah, Pixiv is awesome, but it's in Japanese and doesn't work on Firefox.

Pixiv should work in Firefox, as I'm using it right now. :P

Also, if you have greasemonkey, there's a translation script for the site. It's pretty easy to navigate even if you don't understand it though.

In addition to those already mentioned, Sankaku Complex's image database is pretty good too. NSFW though.

That's almost the same thing as danbooru or gelbooru or whatever, plus shitkaku sucks.
I hate you all.

Well I did say "in addition" since I actually read what others posted and didn't want to repeat answers....

Speak for yourself, Sankaku is my number 1 place to go for sex-crime related news in Japan :D

Or just ecchi articles :3

Sankaku>> News

But.. that just wrong dude, no matter what kind of news, Shitkaku sux mayor time, well if you like to read inaccurate, overreacted writed by faggots news... i guess its ok (or to read at the "i'mthebetterotaku" comments they make here)

Well like everybody in this thread said, Danbo, Gelbo, kona, oreno are great, i used them all, though my fav are

Danbooru: Nice variety, good image organization
Gelbooru: sometimes i find it to have a larger image base than danbo in some areas, but less organization
Safebooru: The same as the others... without Hentai.

Shitkaku does suck, I have no idea why I still check that site. I'm sick of seeing posts like "NICHIJOU LOLI MOE ECCHI HENTAI TENTACLE ANIME" just because they have a few seconds of a fanservice scene or something. It's stupid.

Anyways, I think pixiv is one of the best to find fanart, I think most of the stuff on the booru sites are taken from there, I think? It's in japanese, but pretty easy to navigate, just follow a guide on how to sign up. If you want to search characters, you'll need their Japanese name, so use MAL's character database, since it usually has their name in Japanese. Pixiv is basically Japanese deviantart, but you can find pages and pages of fanart for a character on it, but a lot of stuff is NSFW. When you use a guide, they will usually go through with explaining how to turn the adult content on/off, so pick whichever option you're comfortable with.

So much Sankaku hate D:

I usually take most anime-related news with a grain of salt unless its completely factual. Sankaku is always good for a few shits and giggles, and the comments there, while being infested with trolls, are sometimes quite funny.

now they actually have some of pixiv in english if you go to your options and change it, but its pretty crappy. obviously the tags are still in japanese though. If you know just hirigana and katakana you will be able to read alot of the tags alot of them are written like that or part of the tag is and you can figure it out.

I mainly just look at the daily/weekly/monty rankings thats how you find the really good ones, you can look back at the history of the rankings too. I also use the list it gives you when you click on the # users in blue text, (I guess its like related pictures or something.
