Shouldn't be the question:
Is it worth the effort? For what does deviantart offer aPoIaF that a "Gallery" Module for its own page can not?
Don't understand me wrong - I understand that Amin wants to push the podcast and therefore uses different pages/communities to extend the visibility of and awareness for the podcast. But is this really needed? I do not mean that against the deviantart-page in particular (that was just my example here), just about the long-term strategy in general.
In terms of long-term strategy, I'm not sure - I know there's a ASOIAF art meme circulating on that site that explicitly mentions APOIAF.
I haven't seen that meme - can you link?
I think it's a good way to collate all our our artwork in a different space to Facebook where different people can see what we are up to. We have established ties with other fandom art groups (though to honest, they're a bit hardcore and I'm a scared to look through their art too much haha).
It was always an experiment though - I don't know if it's worked per say, but I know it's a sight damn easier than, say, updating the website gallery with hundreds of pictures that need bandwidth and formatting.
