Hi everyone! I've been thinking about this and would really like your input. This might be the last month I give out the rewards, or in fact any updates not intended to later be posted in my open galleries in the regular fashion. I might be switching over to sending you guys download links on the 1st of each month via the message system here for double resolution files, as well as the exclusive art. The amount of people joining up, getting everything and bailing before they get charged is getting ridiculous. What do you guys think though, is it too much trouble to have to open files that way instead of coming in once in a while and getting everything? I want to be fair to myself, but also be fair to you and not inconvenience you. I could compile a zip of everything to date for new people who join up, as it's all been available so far.

I'm all for this. Honestly I also recommend contacting Patreon about this issue and suggesting that when someone joins, they're immediately charged for that month. Anything else isn't fair to the creators. There's also this little site known as inkedfur.com >.> Not that I have any relation to that site at all :p

A much easier way of doing this is to keep a dropbox folder with the content, then at the first of the month give out a link to the folder shared. That way, you can revoke the link after the month ends, and give out a new one the following month. People who pay can browse the content without having to traverse the terrible message system here, and everyone wins.

It's pretty crappy how people bail like that, I understand the situation you're in though. Do what you gotta do to protect yourself, I'll roll with whatever preventative solution you choose to implement. Don't worry about possibly inconveniencing me with download links if that's the case, I don't mind.

I would be fine receiving a zip at the beginning of every month. It would actually be more convenient on both ends I think.

I'm all for Zaush's idea too, wetblush does the same thing too for their weekly updates as well.

I pretty much agree with everyone here. I would also be totally OK with either a Zip file or a Dropbox link every month. Whatever works the best for you! I think that's a great idea.

Sorry to hear that people are bailing like that. Whatever works for you is fine by me.

I do the .zip/.rar thing myself, linking it from my dropbox. I can remove it after a time but all patrons that qualify, get the link in their inbox here and it seems to work out pretty good. I tried doing it all open on my 18+ patreon but it just didnt work. So just post samples and teasers of completed stuff. Anyone that is actually there to support the artist, understands and doesnt care how you deliver the stuff. its the people just trying to get free stuff that throw a fit normally. Do what works and feels right to you! :)
