I’m proud to present to you, dDeviantArt.

dDeviantArt is a WordPress plugin designed to integrate your Deviations from DeviantArt.com into your WordPress blog.

The main features are:

  • The ability to have Mutliple Widgets predefined, This allows you to quickly switch between the Deviation set your displaying (Or to display multiple Widgets at once)
  • Inline Deviations, You can post deviations inside your Blog post by simply including the :thumb: string which is located on all Deviation pages
  • Portfolio Pages, You can define an unlimited number of “Portfolio Pages”, These pages allow you to show off upto 24 of your Deviations on a single page.

The plugin allows you to either set a RSS feed of the Deviations you want to display, Or allows you to set the Search Criteria when defining a page/widget, This allows anyone to quickly set up the item to display as they please.

The Options for Widgets:
dDeviantArt Widget Options
As you can see from the above image, You can add as many Widgets as you want, You can input a RSS feed from DeviantArt, or simply set the Search parameters.

Limmitiations of this initial release is that you can only show image resolutions of 150px and 300px, only Deviations and no Prints yet.

Give it a try and see what its like, Then fill out the built-in survey and mention any changes you’d like to see for the next Release.

Requirements:

WordPress 2.2 , 2.3 is HIGHLY recomended.
