Some Good and Bad News (Patreon)

Hello!

So I recently discovered that my exclusive posts has been leaked on other sites. It sucks because it probably takes away some of my income from Patreon. That is the bad news.

I am planning to counter this a little bit by uploading to either Mega or Google Drive and change the link once a month or more. I want to make it as secure and as hassle free as possible. I will send the link via DM to everyone who is subscribing, and every time the link is updated. I will try this approach and see how it goes. I will make a post on Patreon when I upload videos/images on the cloud of course!

If I need to make the link more secure I'll have to add the e-mails to people who can have access, if I do this people need to be logged onto Google with their same e-mails as on Patreon. I will not be doing this in the beginning btw as it's more of a hassle to everyone, I would also prefer not to do this at all.

Now for the good news. The positive thing about doing it this way is that I don't really need to worry about file size anymore. As Patreon only allows me to upload 208 mb per file, I can upload the videos without having to lower the quality if it's original file size is over that limit.

I'm sorry for if this makes it more inconvenient for people! This is not necessarily a final decision, but we'll see how it goes!

Let me know if this approach would be a problem to anyone.

Hello,no offense but everything will always be leaked and it can be a good thing. I saw your art on rule 34 before and that's why i came here, you have no idea how hard to was to find you. You patreon is almost impossible to find . So yeah, you may loose some but it'll bring people to your patreon as well . And making thing harder for subscribers is never a good idea . Worse anyone can just sub for a month copy everythings you posted and do that like every 6 month. So the question is are you loosing more then you gain ? Too it'll take about 10 sec to change a bot so it checkes google drive. Unless patreon does massive changes, nothing will work it's a bit the price to pay if you do good art and are sucsesfull.

Yeah that is true, I just gotta hope people won't care enough to actually pay and manually leak stuff. The posts on rule34 is from me btw :) I made a post earlier about having public posts on sites like rule34. The difference is that the public posts is lower resolution, lower frames and watermarked.

Make sense ,maybe something that woud help you get more people on patreon. You'r curent watermark is hard to understand ,it looks like you signed it and for anyone it's hard to read (for foreigner ever harder) But even if someone manage to read it you tag on r34 is danny_rule34 If you search that on patreon you are nowhere to be found ,i tryed. So anyone wanting to support you need to be able to read your name , search patreon with your r34 artist name = faill Then figure out you may have changed something try random things and hope they find you. Now i'm in France and it coud have been an issue unique to me .(region censoring,unique algorithm for europe,or patreon promoting other artists...) Maybe a simpler watermark or sign in "time newroman" ? And add a direct link to your patreon at the bottom of each image.

Thanks for the feedback! Changing the font for sure. I tried to search for my name while in incognito mode on Patreon and I couldn't find myself either, which is weird. I could easily find myself via Google by searching "danny_r34 Patreon" though. Gonna try to add a direct link too in my images!
