some musings! patreon/gumroad tos, etc
🕑 Added 2024-03-27 17:59:51 +0000 UTCEdit june 4: they replied! and i dont think the TOS applies to anthros, so it's all good ! i guess!
Edit May 1st: STILL waiting on a reply from patreon. x_x
hi guys!!
firstly, once again, sorry for the scarcity of posts lately! when things get tough financially, i usually dont get time for my fun patreon art :( and the past month was real tight! this upcoming month may also be a bit rough (i gotta pay me taxes), but we'll see! could end up fine!
secondly, i saw the new TOS updates to gumroad and patreon! i've been stewing on it.
one of the newly not-allowed features is
Depictions or glorification of animal genitals
which would impact all of my work here pretty much, if it applies to anthros. i might write to them to get some clarification. i'm not sure what i'd do if that ^ were indeed the case, but we'll cross that bridge when/if we get there. maybe i'd have to switch off patreon to a different subscribe-type site? difficult news!
thirdly, i've been having a kind of crisis of faith re: paywalling my nsfw art! i feel like i've talked about this before, i'm getting major deja-vu. so forgive me if this is like, the 2nd or 3rd time i've talked about this, i dont remember XD anyway, i think i'd like to include nsfw finished products in my FA gallery.
Here's what my posting is like currently:
Patreon:
-WIPS, multiple NSFW alts, fullsized art, personal art, fetish content i'm shy about posting publicly
FA:
-Small sized finished art only, sheath/nude alt
Here's what I'd like to do instead:
What I think I'd like to do is make 1 minor change, and post a nsfw alt version of a painting to FA too when uploading.
Patreon: (unchanged)
-WIPS, multiple NSFW alts, fullsized art, personal art, fetish content i'm shy about posting publicly
FA:
-Small sized finished art, sheath/nude alt and 1 nsfw alt
90% of what I post here to patreon would continue to stay ONLY on patreon/for patrons!
So those are my thoughts!
i may upload a handful (or less) of finished nsfw pieces to my FA gallery. for future finished pieces, i'd choose 1 of their nsfw alts to post as well to FA (and the rest would stay on here only)!
hope you guys are all having a good week so far!!

yeah!! :( it's rough. seems like it's paypal who's putting pressure on gumroad/patreon/etc with it, since their nsfw TOS has been VERY strict for ages. it really sucks.

Depiction of animal genitals?? Might as well put a blindfold over your eyes if get on Patreon then. Who are they kidding?
