End of Year Stuff & Auction Poll (Patreon)

TLDR: 2024's nearly over, and oof it was full of disasters IRL. There's a bit of housekeeping I need to post before November. Afterwards, there's a poll regarding what to auction when they next roll out.

A reminder—Patreon's changing their billing. They asked me when to activate it and I chose the default time of November. To my understanding it means after this takes effect, patrons will be billed monthly based on which day of the month they joined as opposed to everyone being billed on the first of each month. Their resources said that anyone who's already a patron won't see any difference, but anybody who joins/rejoins afterwards will be affected, so please read up on whatever literature they went out for more direct information. The only other takeaway from that is to not use apple pay if it can be avoided, because apple want 30% of every transaction, atop whatever fees patreon imposes O~o; My spreadsheet for calculating points won't anticipate people who use apple pay.

After Halloween & the last couple of pinups I'm making the next (and severely overdue) page of Flags Activated, then spending the rest of the year clearing off my to-do list as best I can. This means finishing Idea Pile stuff. Arts will range from crayon draws to short animations depending on how fun they are. Having a daunting to-do list is more of a demotivator for making personal work than anything else. A short list of auctioned pieces that can be done in a few days (or 1 single somewhat larger project amidst personal stuff) is easier to handle.

On the subject of auctions, I'd like to gauge what people would like to see more of for the next year, so I've attached a poll to get a sense of what people are most interested in. 3D work excluded (really want to improve on that), each are projects/pieces that can be cleared within the month.

That's all I've got for now, as always thanks to everyone and thanks for reading o^o7
