Hello everybody!

Unfortunately I have some bad news, which makes me feel awful because I know that it's probably only a very small bunch of perpetrators that are doing this but I have to address it.


It has recently come to my attention that my work, specifically my LATEST pieces are being shared on a popular /board. This is NOT ok, and I am severely disappointed in whoever has been uploading these latest images elsewhere as it is unfair to your fellow patrons and myself. To get to the point of this message, I will not be sharing anything new to Patreon until I send it out in a monthly package. At least the full uncensored/uncropped images will not be shared, I will still continue to post previews to my instagram/tumblr and such as well as here.


I am truly sorry the 99% that had nothing to do with this, but this seems like the best course of action for the time. If a better alternative arises I will look into it!


<3

That's so ridiculous, and rude of them! I'm so sorry :(

MoreGapePlease

And I've just started pledging too haha! 😂 Good luck with cracking down on the perpetrators! Bloody rascals! 😡

I'm not really sure if I will be able to! All I know is that it is a patron of the $20+ tier! But other than that there is not much else I can deduce!

I'm confused, does it change something to the amount of drawings you'll share daily?

dizdoodz

Nope! I'll still be making art just as frequent, just can't share them in full here till I find a solution.

Not to be a sourpuss but regrettably, if you post a work onto the Internet, it can and will be posted and shared elsewhere. There is no legal action you can take so long as your work is not being used for monetary profit. To be honest, I found your work through an online board posted by a third party and wanted to follow you for up to date work/best quality. Since your patreon plan changed will you be updating the plans / pricing?

The Eight Phases

Hiya! I think I can help answer this for you. Originally, the stream sketches were only published within the monthly packages. Diz started posting them on the main page, in addition to publishing them in the monthly package, just to be nice. Since they are getting shared by someone, Diz has decided to go back to publishing them in the monthly packages only. So you will still receive everything that you were before. It will just take a little long for somethings now. So, I believe things will remain the same as far as plans and pricing. I hoped this helped. :-)

The Eight Phases

Hiya Diz! ;-) &lt;3 I think we all understand, and you are trying to be fair to everyone. Not to mention that you have also been releasing your previous works on your tumblr. &lt;3 The only thing I'm unhappy about is that . . . *n* I'm in the suspect pooool! TT_TT *cry cry* I don't wanna be interrogated by scary Mariska Hargitay! (Detective Benson, Law &amp; Order, SVU) Okay, enough being silly. X3 We'll just have to learn to wait a little longer for fresh baked Dizzy goodness! XD &lt;3 In the meantime, if anyone needs their Diz fix they can go read the text version of Storms of Arum on your old blog! ;-) &lt;3

8 Cats and a Bagel

that sucks to hear, but do what you gotta do. Besides, I think it'll almost make the packs more special since I have no idea what most of the pics are. Also, not gonna lie, ive seen some of your stuff floating around in a couple of places, and everyone in those are shitty and looking for instant gratification. It's 10 bucks for quality content, give me a fuckin break. little shitsuckers.

Hours Left

That's awful that someone is leaking your pieces online. I hope you're able to find a solution. Good luck!

Omg! I was getting mad about this earlier this week when I came across a thread with people posting some of your stuff and others were still complaining that they want everything else! I don't get why people think they deserve free stuff all the time and that trying to make a living doing what you want is being greedy! I'm glad you're doing something about it Diz!

Zanrath

Is rude flattery a thing? Because that's what I think people who do that are exhibiting. Do what you need to do Diz to protect your work. From what it looks like here, you have a lot of support behind your decision.

Rocket

Rude flattery don't pay the bills.

CLX

Damn! I hope you can identify who's doing this...

sraz

I'm gonna bitch slap whoever thinks they are allowed to publicly "share" stuff, what an asshat.

Nicoclaws

I'll miss the daily hunks on my phone :( You do whatever you can though :) I hope this has no repercussion on your salary though. We're so near the 2000 !

Shit, that's something I'd expect from a low-end contributor. Do people really think that $20/month entitles them to share your work for free? I talk about your stuff all the time publicly but when people ask to see I point them to the subscription button: they can pay like the rest of us!

Anonymous

Hi so I was wonder how will we view the art now. Are the subscibers getting a email or a link or something at sometime this month? Also I was wondering what tier do you have to be in to see colored pieces?

dizdoodz

You can see coloured at tier $1 truthfully there weren't many up to this point but the package I'm about to send has a brunch! And I will send the package out in the next day or so when all of the pledges have finished processing &lt;3

I admire you and you work very much Diz, but in this case I think you're acting in the wrong direction. Your regular updates are the reason why I became a patron, and by rescinding them, you are penalizing 99% of your paying customers in order to get at the one or two who are acting against your interests. I empathize with you, but I have to ask, are you on Patreon to offer your works to your patrons, or not to? I want to keep supporting you, but it's difficult when you've chosen to inhibit the reason to.
