So bummed out. Found out tonight that one of my favorite Merlin artists, Lenxen1984, got banned from DA. My guess is she was reported for mature drawings and DA deemed it crude. Anyway, I have a little more information about it on my recent roundup-recs post.
Then again, this is also in line with the crap fanfiction.net just pulled this week.
However, while writers have the choice to find another host site, social sites for artists to interact and share work is limited. Sure you can use a photo bucket or scrapbook on LJ to host the art, but why isn't there an AO3 for us to host, share, find, and interact with new work? I'm not the biggest porn girl, but I have a few that can be seen as m/m or bestiality. If I woke up one day and found those pieces removed or my entire gallery restricted, I'd be very upset.
