Thank you so much, and some news~ (Patreon)

I wanted to let everyone know too, starting this month I'm working on doing a batch .zip of all the work I've done in a particular month that will get sent out to every Patron who successfully pledges for that month. The first batch will be for August, so it'll get sent out after pledges are processed in early September. I'll probably use Dropbox or a similar service (haven't quite decided yet), but I've got a dedicated "August" folder on my desktop now where I'll copy everything I finish.
I'm hoping doing things this way (sending a Dropbox link to Patrons who paid, rather than posting the content on here) will keep me from getting so many Patrons who pledge, download the high-res versions of everything, then unpledge and run. There are also a couple of Patrons who have had their pledges declined every month for several months now -- if it happens again this month, you're getting deleted....sorry...
Again, thank you, thank you, thank you. I'm getting closer every day to making this my main profession (sometimes, closer than you might guess). My final milestone of $3000 a month might sound like overkill, but I'm trying to account for a lot of things -- people whose pledges don't come through, the cut that Patreon takes out, having to pay self-employment taxes, having enough to not just pay the bills but also save for the future/retirement. This is something I want to do for the rest of my life, not just for a couple of years. I hope someday we can see that future together -- love ya, everybody.
