I think that there should be a subscription trial! So people can see what it's like to have a subscription for a few days or so, and then they can decide if they want to buy one when it runs out. I think it would be kind of cool.

As said above... Perhaps, instead of distributing randomly, they could give an option in the profile or settings to trigger a one week sub. Say once a year. Advantage: Will happen when the deviant is sure to be in a period they will use dA (no holidays, etc.). Allows to try again to see if new features (like folder CSS) are worth the try. Disadvantage: It is harder to control the amount of subbed deviants.
