🕑 Added 2020-01-11 17:11:39 +0000 UTCSo as announced in the previous post, I'd like to take this opportunity to engage with you all about the future of this Patreon.
As those of you who've been with me the longest know, while tiers have been added and deleted in the past, the prices of the tiers haven't changed since this page's inception in 2018. At the time, the rates I set were based off my (then current) commission rates, with a discount to encourage patronage over individual commissions. Since then, however, my rates for individual commissions have increased significantly, while these Patreon tiers have stayed the same. This results in some pretty crazy discounts, as you can see on my commission info: https://forms.gle/t98znXTZwkTgyPeN7
On top of that, some of the tiers take up a significant amount of time compared to the others.
Now the easy solution for me would just be to introduce new tiers based off my current rates and ask you all to pledge to those instead, but I feel that each of you deserves to at the very least throw in your 2 cents before I introduce any changes. On top of that, price hikes aren't the only way.
Specifically to those in the $5 tier: I am considering the idea of keeping your tier at its current price, but changing the reward from a custom avatar to a type of polling system. Each of you would get to nominate a character, a poll would be opened for all patrons to vote in, and the winner would see a pin up of their character drawn (something like this: https://imgur.com/a/ZOIeRMd ). Would this have your preference over a price increase for your tier?
I'd like to hear from all of you, in every tier, about this, so please feel free to leave your thoughts down below!

I agree that the options available are really nice. What are your thoughts on the profile picture bumping up to $10?

I would personally love to stick to a monthly profile picture. I planned on keeping my pledge to you for a long time.
