The site flourished largely because of its unique offering and the contributions of its core fellow member base and a squad of volunteers afterward its launch,[ten] only was officially incorporated in 2001 about 8 months after launch.[11]

DeviantArt was loosely inspired by projects similar Winamp facelift, customize.org, deskmod.com, screenphuck.com, and skinz.org, all application skin-based websites. Sotira entrusted all public aspects of the project to Scott Jarkoff as an engineer and visionary to launch the early program. All three co-founders shared backgrounds in the application skinning customs, but information technology was Matt Stephens whose major contribution to DeviantArt was the suggestion to take the concept farther than skinning and more toward an art community. Many of the individuals involved with the initial evolution and promotion of DeviantArt nevertheless hold positions with the project. Angelo Sotira currently serves as the primary executive officeholder of DeviantArt, Inc.[11] [12] [13]
