Monthly Charges, Up-Front, and Annual Memberships (Patreon)

I've switched on "pay-up-front". This will have no effect on "Legacy" Patrons who have been here all along. You will still be charged on the first of the month... I think. That's what Patreon said about existing patrons way back when this system was created. That said, there is an incentive for annual memberships, which is that there is an overall 16% discount on the regular monthly charges if you pay in advance. So if you got it up front, and you don't want to think about it for a year at a time, this is a great option that gives you a slight discount. However, to enable this feature, the "pay up front" model was required to be switched on. So, that's why the change. Thanks for being here, everyone. New comics soon, I hope. ;)
