Preferred site to find artwork? (3rd-Party)
| Out of curiosity, what is your preferred website for finding artwork and why? Or, website you least prefer? Do you upload to any of these websites? Just browse? Maybe both? |

| zerochan because i can subsearch with "official art" on it |
| Usually Safebooru and Pixiv. Mostly for desktop backgrounds. |
| https://images.google.com/ works fine |
This dance is the pinnacle of human achievement. |
| Pinterest or the regular google images for me. |

| I like gelbaroo since you can allow the loli tag unlike danbooru. I also use nhentai. |
 |
| I usually use DeviantArt to search for nice fanarts. I rarely search for them, but if I do, I use DeviantArt. |
| DeviantArt, Pinterest and countless of random sites. I have only visit certain sites, like, once or twice, so it's impossible to remember them anymore. |

| I don't really seek out fanart all that often, it usually just finds me. Twitter, Pinterest and Tumblr are all sites I use on a regular basis though |
 |
| Weird no Pixiv was mentioned even though it's a big one. There are people that still use DeviantArt? Ugh. I would never use it to upload from how they literally take ownership of the art uploaded on it. |

| @traed Dang, is that in DeviantArt's terms and service? I guess another reason to celebrate its downfall. |

| Yande.re, Zerochan, and Gelbooru from the poll options listed above, but I also use Pixiv and Hitomi.la for Visual Novel CG galleries. Gelbooru imports uploads from Danbooru, on top of having its own user uploads and fewer restrictions on uploads and tag searching (which it doesn't charge you for), so I prefer it. Sankaku technically has millions of more images than both Danbooru and Gelbooru, but also basically necessitates subscribing to get access to a substantial portion of their paywalled images. On top of that, it's chock-full of ads and intrusive blog/news articles, so it's hardly an example of user-friendly web design. |

| @WaffleMaster89 Yeah I had heard of it being in their terms of service a few years back. |
| Besides Gelbooru, I also use Pixiv, Deviant Art, and 4chan. There's also some accounts I follow on ifunny and Instagram that post fanart. |
| I love Pixiv i’m surprised OP never included it. Honestly seems like a lot of content from booru sites is just taken from there or twitter anyways |

| @Dumb I didn't include pixiv or twitter because my question was mostly about boorus and similar imageboards. I agree, pixiv is a great art website. I use it all the time. On the other hand, the tagging system isn't super great if you're looking for details other than copyright + character, so I like using sites like danbooru for that. |
|
| Twitter, Pixiv, Zerochan, Gelbooru, Safebooru, search engines. |
 This ground is soiled by those before me and their lies. I dare not look up for on me I feel their eyes |

| @Dumb I was surprised as well. I thought that Pixiv was one of the most popular websites with fanarts. I'm not much into the world of fanarts, so I couldn't tell for sure, but Pixiv is among one of few websites offering fanarts that I have knowledge of. |
| Safebooru & Pixiv is the best option for me |
 |
| I use Danbooru mostly because it is the only one that I use that gives links to original posts WITHOUT demanding that I sign up |
Hello can you please watch Kitaku-bu Katsudou Kiroku |
| Gelbooru. What else? Nothing else. |
| Twitter mainly, but Danbooru if I'm looking for something specific, even some other boorus if really it's too specific. I like zero-chan too, mainly because they have a lot of huge size pics |
| https://drawfriends.booru.org/ |

| Zerochan and Danbooru. Maybe classic google images sometimes. |
| Google images the past couple/few years, or random sites. Back in the day I used photobucket and Tumblr, lol. |
 |
| I significantly use the websites that go by the name of Google and the other being Zerochan. |

| Mainly Pixiv and Zerochan. I used to use Google but not anymore since there's so much AI crap that there's no way to filter out at the moment. |
 |
| mostly twitter and instagram! occasionally pinterest and pixiv and sometimes reddit? thankfully pixiv has a no-AI option |
| Pixiv, Twitter, and some Reddit subs |
Some of you never watched Bakugan Battle Brawlers on TeleToon in 2008 and it shows. |

| @deg They did this way before AI. What they did was use peoples art to sell on products iirc. |
| pinterest at most times works for me |

| I almost only use pixiv to save art because the file names make it pretty clear which site an image is from, the file name links back directly to the original artist/post, and it's clear how to save the image for the best quality there. I sometimes share art on the sfw 4chan boards, so it just makes it easier when people ask for sauce. Well... some folks ask anyway, but that just means they're probably new. Speaking of newbies, the pixiv filenames also let you know if someone uploaded a file that wasn't saved at the best quality, which is a newbie mistake. Some other sites tend to change up how to save at the best quality more often than I'd like, so I gave up on them for image saving long ago. |
| I usually stick to pixiv since Japanese fans draw stuff I like and my likes usually don't match with the non-Japanese fandom. |
 |
| Danbooru, Pixiv and the 'comics and stills' section of F95zone. |
| Mostly Deviant Art. For SFW stuff. Gelbooru for nsfw stuff. |
