🕑 Added 2017-09-29 18:37:44 +0000 UTC Alright folks, I know i probably won't get much (or any) feedback here, and that is ok (I support models and photographers here on Patreon myself and am not super vocal), but I thought I would make one post regarding this patreon project of mine now that i am about 6 months into it, and touch on a couple things.- First: I have been making a bunch of posts the last week, trying to get back on the ball. The two months I wasn't able to focus on this project due to an intense period in my actual job (as one half of kozyndan). I lost a lot of pledges, but am really grateful to those who have stuck around and am trying to make up for it with a blast of posting that will continue a into October. I appreciate your patience!
- Second: I made a slight but significant adjustment to the tier rewards that will affect several of my Patrons. I pushed the mailed print reward to the $25 tier instead of the $20. To be honest i never got much response to the prints. Only one person ever wrote to say they appreciated receiving it, or expressed liking it, and several patrons who are subscribed to the $20 Tier specifically asked me NOT to send them any physical print in the mail, that they only signed up at $20 for access to the Archive sets. Which also made me realize I was offering 2 extra rewards for the particular $5 jump in pledge whereas I was adding only one reward to the $5 and $10 tiers, if that makes sense. Lastly - it was a LOT more expensive than $5 dollars a person per month to make and ship those prints - so I am losing money each month on them. This is why I realized I needed to shift the mailing of physical 4x6 inch prints to a tier higher, so that i am at least not losing money on them each month. I am sorry to those affected by this that really did like receiving the prints, but I hope you understand that this patreon thing is new for me and I am working out the kinks to see what benefits us all.
- Third: this is probably something I should just look up, but all of you know the answer to this - are you receiving an email each time i make a post you have access to? I don't actually know if this is the case, but if not I would like to change whatever setting I need to to make sure you are being alerted by mail and can therefore access the images linking directly out of your email. I want to ensure everyone is getting the content they have paid for.
And just so this post isn't totally lacking in content, some previews of upcoming sets:

It's always a pleasure to receive fresh images and vids from you - old or new, digital or tangible....fresh food for my eyes

Thank you for understanding! (And being able to choose your own print image is still an option on a higher tier.)

I mainly wanted the archive, then if I had to have a print I wanted to choose it. It's nice! But I'm not surprised it cost you too much $ to send international! Thanksss
