FAQ #873: What do I do when I disapprove of a Daily Deviation feature?
STEP ONE. Don't you dare complain to the recipient. Nobody asks for a Daily Deviation. It's a showcase based on a suggestion. If you comment with, "This sucks," or "Why was this a DD?" expect to get your head flamed off.
STEP TWO. Browse galleries. Not just of your friends, not just of famous people. Try to find a piece that doesn't already have three thousand favorites and comments. When you find the piece, celebrate.
STEP THREE. THIS IS IMPORTANT. Note a suggestion to the CORRECT person. Only certain people on dA have the ability to create Daily Deviations, and they're often broken down into categories.
FAQ #18: Who selects the Daily Deviation and how is it chosen?
STEP FOUR. Wait. The staff might not get back to you immediately, or ever. Remember that they're bombarded with suggestions each day. If yours isn't chosen, move on. Don't suggest the same thing again unless you're sure they never received your note.
SEEMS LIKE COMMON SENSE, HUH? Well the majority of the confusion and aggravation BEHIND DD's is that people don't have any. So go out there and suggest some! It'll make you feel good. ;D
(Each day I'll be posting here the things I suggest, so look back from time to time!)

Then, send them a note linking to the piece you found, and write two or three sentences about why you liked it.
Hope that helps!

I'd still recommend it though! xD Though you're kind of right about the editor part. >>
