Important Update: Tier Changes, New Animated Perks, and the Future of the Page! (Patreon)

TL;DR:

The Issue: The commission queue in the $15/Legacy tiers has grown too large, causing burnout and delaying our regular community polls.

The Fix: To protect my time and the quality of the sets, commission privileges are moving to new, strictly CAPPED tiers ($30+).

Current Requests: Safe! If you are already in the queue or paid for this month before this announcement, your commission will still be fulfilled.

New Perks: The $10 and $20 tiers are getting expanded archive access, stronger voting multipliers, and the return of Animated GIFs!

Effective: Immediately.

Hi, hi~

First, I want to say a massive Thank You. The growth this page has seen recently has been absolutely incredible, and your support means the world to me. I've always wanted this to be a space where we can build amazing sets together, and seeing how much you're enjoying the content is my biggest motivation.

I just did a tier rebalancing not too long ago. And while that helped me ease the technical burden of the commissions, it did nothing to ease the sheer amount of requests I receive.

As you know, my sets aren't just dumping random images into a folder. Each set is 300+ images long, requiring a lot of manual labor, so the story actually makes sense. Right now, the volume of custom commissions in the Legacy and $15 tiers has grown so massive that it has completely hijacked my workflow. I mentioned this briefly previously, but It’s been over a month since our last community poll because my entire schedule is consumed by the commission queue.

I'm starting to feel the burnout, and more importantly, it's not fair to the wider community to have the polls stalled out for this long. To protect my mental health, maintain the high quality of the sets, and actually have time to do the community-voted characters again, I need to restructure how tiers work.

What is changing?

I am separating Content Access from Commission Privileges. Custom sets take hours of intensive labor, and I can no longer sustainably offer them at the lower tiers. Moving forward, custom commissions will be moved to new, strictly CAPPED tiers so I can control my workload.

What about my current commission?

If you are in one of the Legacy or $15 tier and are currently in the queue, don't panic. I am honoring the queue. If you already submitted your request, you will get your set. Also, if you have paid for this month as of today before the announcement, you may still request your commission normally, but do keep in mind that this will be the last month with that perk.

The exciting part: NEW PERKS! (Animations!)

Since I am removing the commission perk from the lower tiers, I am replacing it with something I am incredibly excited about: Animated Scenes. I’ve been tweaking my local image to video workflows, and I will now be bringing back these perks.

Here is what the new tier structure looks like:

Access ($5): No changes.

Supporter (Previously: Legacy [Premium]) ($10): NEW! Unlock the past 6 months of the archive and get a 3x voting multiplier.

Archive (Previously: Supporter): NEW! Full access to the entire vault of past sets, a dominant 6x voting multiplier, plus exclusive posts containing Animated GIFs. Price up by $5. This change only applies to new members.

Director (Previously: Collector [Premium]) ($30) [Strictly Capped]: NEW! The new entry-level commission tier. 1 Custom public mega-set (existing models), 9x voting multiplier, plus the full archive. Price up by $5. This change only applies to new members.

Producer ($50) [Strictly Capped]: Changes to the voting power to x15.

Executive Producer ($100) [Strictly Capped]: Changes to the voting power to x30.

These changes will take effect immediately. My goal is to make sure this page remains a fun, high-quality, and sustainable project for the long haul.

Thank you all for your understanding, your patience, and your continued support.
