This is the place where you can personalize your profile!
But, how?
By moving, adding and personalizing widgets.
You can drag and drop to rearrange.
You can edit widgets to customize them.
The bottom has widgets you can add!
Some widgets you can only access when you get a premium membership.
Some widgets have options that are only available when you get a premium membership.
We've split the page into zones!
Certain widgets can only be added to certain zones.
"Why," you ask? Because we want profile pages to have freedom of customization, but also to have some consistency. This way, when anyone visits a deviant, they know they can always find the art in the top left, and personal info in the top right.
Don't forget, restraints can bring out the creativity in you!
Now go forth and astound us all with your devious profiles!
(I also posted this comment as a critique on one of your pictures)
== Advanced technique:
- When creating any picture that will have nothing but an object(s) or figure(s) in the foreground (which you have done for all of your pictures at this point), AND if it is meant to be somewhat realistic-looking, then it's handy to consider the picture's light source(s) first.
a. Think about how many light sources will be in your picture.
b. Think about where the light is coming from: from above, below, left, or right, etc.
c. Choose what color the light will be: white, yellow, red, etc.
d. Decide how bright each light will be.
All of these will affect how you shade and color your people and objects, and they can give your pictures a really good sense of shape.
-- I consider this an advanced technique because you will need to have a good understanding on shading (and shaping) objects. (But, in my opinion, shading objects is the funnest thing to practice in drawing. If you'd like to practice shading, try simple things like fruit, blocks, or balls).
I assume you've seen these before, but here are two examples of my work to show how choosing lights affects the picture:

Notice the effect of the soft blue light on the left, and bright yellow on the right:
- I'd like to point out her horns. See how they're reflecting bright yellow on one side, and soft blue on the other? And see how the background gives you an idea of where the light is coming from?

This is a plain white light from above:
- The top parts of his armor are the brightest. I knew to draw it that way because I knew where the light was coming from.
---NOTE: I know all of this might be hard to grasp, but I hope you're able to experiment with my suggestions without feeling discouraged. One thing I'm sure you'll enjoy and learn from is practicing shading. So that's what I suggest first.
