"Also, it seams that whenever I refresh my homepage, the number of visitors go up by 1."

That's not a bug. That's the way it works. The page sees a computer opening your page, so adds a visitor onto the counter. If you keep refreshing, you're opening the page over and over... hence the visitor count going up.

"in my gallery, when I go to specific deviant and look at the number of visitors - it stay the same info for days."
Maybe they're not getting any new visitors? Besides, this is an unrelated bug (if it even is a bug) so it shouldn't be left on this news item, I'd suggest the help desk or somewhere else.

It was not like that before, because it happens when i'm logged on and looking at my gallery. It should happen only when I am not logged on.

ok, I'll give it by example:
I am looking at the same piece in the gallery, and for example -
One day - I come and see total of 50 visitors, and 39 visitors for 'today'.
Next day, I come and see total of 50 visitors, and 39 visitors for 'today'.
Another day I come and see total of 50 visitors, and 39 visitors for 'today'.
It looks like a bug. And I noticed the same thing happening to other people.

I don't think so. I'm not 100% positive, but I'm pretty sure it happens to me and others when logged on... and it happened before v5 too.

Yeah as for the deviation stats, I see what you mean now. Yeah it's prob a bug, but it's different to what $lolly was talking about so I think it was supposed to be reported elsewhere.
