Hello friends!

A quick post today to announce some great news!!!

WE'RE GETTING RID OF DROPBOX!

Yep, you read that right!

From now on, the files will be placed DIRECTLY IN THE POST, in zip format!

This is something that is possible with the pro account for creators on Patreon, which i have, and I will obviously use it!!!

I've divided this post into two sections, free members and paid members, but I ask that you read both please.

WHAT'S NEW FOR PAID MEMBERS :

You'll be able to download directly here, on Patreon, without having to worry about Dropbox links, passwords, or the unfriendly listings of Dropbox.

So each post in the feed will have the files directly attached to it. You will find the zip file at the bottom of the post, simply click on it to download the files.

To find a very specific post, you will have the options to use the search bar or to look in the "Collections" which will contain all the available models. (It's the second tab at the very top of the page.)

Of course, posts containing project zip files will be open to paid members only, just like Dropbox was, but there's a small twist. (Read more below!

WHAT'S NEW FOR FREE MEMBERS:

I will also continue to create content posts accessible to free members, which will allow you to see what's happening on the paid Patreon. And what follows will explain why.

With a new feature from Patreon, Free members will now be able to purchase individual posts (therefore the models too) without joining as paid members.

So, without being a paid member, you'll be able to choose a post and unlock it for a certain amount of money, giving you access to this post model only. Much like you would do on Cults or MyMiniFactory. Since the zip file is included in the post, when you pay to unlock a single post, you'll have access to the zip file for downloading.

You will also find all the posts available to purchase under the "Shop" tab of my Patreon. For the moment the shop is almost empty but as I update the posts as mentioned above, the links will be added to the shop automatically.

Be careful, though: ONLY members with a monthly paid subscription have the commercial license. If you purchase a single post, it's for personal use only, just as it would be on Cults.

ANOTHER IMPORTANT POINT: Not all posts will be available to free members for purchase. In fact, Several posts will be exclusive to members with a monthly subscription only, especially the projects that required a lot of work, for obvious reasons. Having a monthly membership will always be the best option.

So this is it! I'll be updating each single post on my Patreon in the coming days. It'll require some work, but it should still go smoothly. The collections will also be updated.

But ultimately, this is to make things easier for you and make finding your models easier.

So don't be surprised if in the coming days you see some posts with the zip file directly in the post and others taking you to Dropbox instead. There will be a few days where the two will overlap, but soon everything will be directly inside the posts.

That being said, I'll let you get back to your printers! I'll be back very soon with a new Halloween model!

Take care friends!

ADHD Laser Focused LLC

Amazing! I know that'll be a big project to get all the links directly attached but definitely will make it easier to find things on our end. Appreciate all the hard work!

Chris Ward

Hooray no more impossible searchs of dropbox

Matt Marmet

Thank you for your constant attentiveness to your Patreons. We appreciate all that you do to make our lives easier and better. You are absolutely amazing.

Great option! Is there a way to do a preview post? I know that would be a duplicate post, but the issue with patreon (not you) is that you cannot see items clearly to know if you want to purchase or in some case join one.

cindy robutka

All wonderful news! I am really looking forward to this new way to get the files. I was always searching and finding it hard. Thanks so much for all your hard work!!!

Chris West

Great news! This will make it so much easier for the community to find and print these files.

Chris West

That’s what the “free” post will be.

Flyin Hellfish

ok, sounds good. I wasn't sure, since I could see the new buy post option on the latest articulated dragon, but since it was also the paid one I could not see the pics. Thanks!

One question, if you're doing away with dropbox and the monthly password, what happens to the mega.nz altered files that your members create? Will there be a special folder on Patreon for those? I know that uses the same monthly password to access.

LEILA DAIRA

Super!!! Ce sera tellement plus pratique !!! Merci beaucoup ❤️

Adam Jones

Great change and I hope this makes it easier for you to manage as well Pascal!!! Thanks for always trying to take care of us!!

Jackie stokes

glad to hear it, hard to find anything.

will the images be visible or blurred? I feel the blurred images of a project lowers interest. If I cant see something, how will i know i want it. That has been my problem with patreon since it was born. I might have a bunch of them, but i decided to narrow the field and just watch incase someone does somthing im interested in. they i go back and change to subscription. but if i cant see it, i cant decide. its poor marketing on patreons part, i get it for different arts it is useful. but for buying stl files its a hinder. I know this is not something you can control entirely. but keep that in mind when blurring out a post.

Ivan Teixeira

Hello, can you create a post per month with all the files of the month? So I don't need to go on each post and download the files? 😉 Thanks

Donna Donahue

I can't love this enough. Thank you!

Buck Lyons
