I would like the whole journals as deviations scrapped, having some other place to show the faves and not in the actual faves place, remove it from the deviations category and move it someplace else, etc etc.

Yes, that might help things. I LIKE being able to :+fav: them, and actually wished for that for a while. Some of my friends write some amazing journals that are worth sharing. But yes, maybe another place for them would be good :) Have you suggested this?

There were suggested several times before as well as after the features were implemented by a lot of users. :)

I think it's common descensy to say thank you, when someone has given you a compliment - wich I think a :+fav: is.
I allso try to give comments back to those who comments my work - unless it's "sooo cuteee" or something like that :) Then I just say thanks :)

Yes, some comments only get a 'thanks' from me, too, but when someone takes time to make an in-depth comment and say something constructive or meaningful, I do my best to give the same back :) I think for journals, though, most of mine aren't personal journals, they're art related or just informational...so I think of a fave on a journal as a 'bookmark' for something people might want to refer back to or share with someone else. I don't really look at them as 'my work', so I guess that's why I haven't been thanking for journal faves.
Thanks for your comment! :hug:

I see your point :)
- and I can imagine, that you get a lot of favorites and comments, so you could proberbly easy be overwhealmed with "thank you" notes :)

I don't get a LOT of faves, but I do get a fair share of comments. I never mind thanking anyone, and I always try to answer all comments :)

I fave journals if they're epically awesome, and I thank for faving if mine is awesome XD. The only thing I really don't thank for is llamas because I don't care about them.
