How to

Navigation
So the first thing you'll notice about Eclipse is that the navigation is different. This can be very frustrating for people when they can't find the features and pages they're used to.
The top navigation consists of:
Home | Watch | Shop | Groups | Forum
The latter 3 are nested under "more" but there's plenty of room for them. Maybe DA knows you're probably never gonna use those buttons anyway.
Home
Now with
No porn!
The Home page gives you options to see deviations by popularity, topic, Daily Deviations and deviations from people you watch!
(I don't watch many people so that's why you see 5 things from the same person here.)
Watch
The "Watch" tab is where all the stuff moved that used to go to your notifications, but isn't directly interacting with you.
When you click on it the default view is "Deviations" which can cause some confusion over seemingly "missing" notifications where you can see something in Classic but not Eclipse.
Click "All" to find those "missing" notifications!
Shop
This page was formerly called "Prints" and it
has not been optimized for Eclipse yet.
So it's exactly the same as before.
Groups
Another page that's just the same as before, and still just as useless as its always been.
Forum
The Forum is also just the same as its always been.
Do people even use the forum? Let me know!
