agree... I do go to deviantart to look for inspirations for some designs though, but I don't take their pictures directly and use it as my own. At most I'll take their ideas, use them as reference and draw my own. Plagarism is BAD.... real pathetic way to mask one's own incompetence.

Meanwhile... here's mine: http://starghazzer.deviantart.com
Feel free to add comments, in fact the more the merrier so that I can improve.

that's why you need to be more objective when receiving comments. No matter what comments or raves you get, if you think your work is not good, it'll never be good enough.

I still think DA is a good place to improve yourself. Not by embracing in all those "sweet" comments, but to learn from other people's style of art. DA has numerous members (which some are crap, but some are really superb), and there's definitely members out there which we could all learn from.

If everyone thinks like you, then how are we going to improve?

So yes, I believe we can improve via deviantart. It all depends on your attitude and desire to learn.
