It might seem odd but my favourite site for art is still Fur Affinity. I much prefer SoFurry's site but FA is a lot faster, and still has more artists. SF didn't give watchlist notifications either until just recently, which is why I've been on probably five years but only watched about 10 people. Inkbunny has the speed but is even smaller than SF. When it comes to stories though then SF is by far my favourite and has been for years. If they just got the speed of their site up it'd score much higher.

In light of recent events I'm changing my vote to SoFurry.

Early last year I would have said deviantART, but I've since become disillusioned with the community, and since my favorite group on the site (Unique Equines) has recently become absolutely flooded with MLP:FIM fanart I tend to stay away from it.
I chose FurAffinity because the upload process is simple, it has more users (and thus more uploads per minute) and I enjoy the community. Even the morons on that site are interesting.
Can't say anything for InkBunny, although I haven't heard the nicest things about its content.
I do not have accounts on Nabyn or Pixiv (although I'll doubtless register one on both sites at some point simply to reserve my username).
I use SoFurry mostly for roleplaying, but with the new layout I might use it more for art. I did dink around on it for a little bit and it seemed cool, but I didn't do much because I was busy uploading more Scrubs avatars--why can I only upload one avatar at a time? I'm on the internet--I demand my impatience to be appeased!
