Welcome new patrons (& update)
🕑 Added 2024-11-13 23:03:40 +0000 UTCI want to say a huge thank you to everyone who's now supporting me here on Patreon. It's especially delightful and poignant to read the many messages and comments with stories about what MinutePhysics means to you, in so many different ways. Your continued support is going to facilitate my future videos, including some particularly ambitious projects.
There are still some drawings left... and in case it's useful ;) I just learned you can send a Patreon membership as a gift: patreon.com/minutephysics/gift
A few (important!) housekeeping reminders:
Please make sure your address on Patreon is up to date
If you're at the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle level or above, remember to fill out the form you received in your Patreon welcome message (to choose the video you'll get a drawing from)
What happens next?
We're currently preparing all of the drawings to be ready to mail and are on track to have things mailed out in early December. I'll send out another update to let you know exactly when to expect drawings to arrive.
Thanks again, so, so much,
Henry
ps my lawyer says I need to mention again that our production company holds the copyright to the drawings and being in possession of the original drawing doesn’t grant you permission to copy or distribute it, just like how buying a book doesn’t give you the rights to reproduce the book… . You’re welcome to give away or sell the physical item, though.

I was checking my patreon info and while my address is up to date in patron it does not appear to to be associated with this membership (it doesn't shoe of of this membership like it does for others). I have an old membership with an old support level. Is there anything I need to to do to receive a print?
Emily Gunnels
Oh! It’s all good then! Thank you!!
Henry Reich
What level membership? There's no form needed for Special and General relativity (just make sure his address is up to date in patreon)
Emily Gunnels
I gifted my husband a membership, but I don’t think he ever got a link for a form. Is there a way to check?
Henry Reich
We're still prepping drawings for shipping, so you'll get one.
Matthew Reid
Just subscribed -- hope I'm not too late 🤞🏼
Henry Reich
You should be fine! Thanks for your support
Henry Reich
This is great to hear!
Falin Schaefer
My 8 yr old son Tuukka is such a huge fan! He insisted we support you and he used his Christmas money to (hopefully) get a drawing! 💙
Emily Hawker
I signed up to get a picture for my dad, so the name I entered on the form is different from my name on my Patreon account. I used my dad's name instead of mine. Is that okay? I did use the email associated with my Patreon when I filled out the form. We also have the same shipping address.
Henry Reich
Thanks for your support! You should have received an email with a welcome message and link to a google form (and I think you can see it on patreon when you're logged in and go to the minutephysics homepage, too)

Hi, I'm in the Higg Boson tier. How do I communicate my preference for which drawing to receive?
M Boom
Awesome, thanks! It'll get a place of honour!
Henry Reich
Yes, there are still drawings available! Thanks for your support!
M Boom
Hey! I was a bit late to the party. Are there any drawings left? Thanks for all the amazing content over the years!
Jay Glenn
Is there a way to request which video to get a drawing from for the $10 tier? Or is it random for everyone under the $70 tier?
Henry Reich
Yes, if you do that I'll send you a drawing!
Sanome
Do we just need to pay special relativity level or above ?
Henry Reich
Sorry for any confusion - I just meant that not all of them have been spoken for yet. Nothing has been mailed yet, I see you in the system so we'll be sending you one in early December.
Henry Reich
I'll make a post here when they've been mailed out, and yes you will have to wait until you get it to find out which one you'll get!
Henry Reich
I'm totally fine with this type of use! (I think Destin of Smarter Every Day has one in his podcast background sometimes)
Henry Reich
I'm not sure about tracking (since these will be fulfilled through DFTBA.com), but we will 100% post a message here letting people know when they have shipped.
Henry Reich
Yes, you just need to be supporting at the Special Relativity level or above!
Kya Syk
I think we just receive it (track to have things mailed out in early December.) I was so delicious with flu when I subscribed I'm happy I did it's just funny to me 😂 and if Im prepared to support anyone it this channel

I hope there will be a middle ground solution for non-commercial use. Like sharing a photo of the drawing on social media and using a photo of it for educational purposes. I do understand that it would be annoying if someone with a drawing started making money from selling T-shirts with it, but I do hope for a middle ground between that and being sued for having a drawing in the background or proudly posting the purchase on social media.
Richard Godden
When you say there are still a few drawings left I signed up for one of the tiers a few weeks ago and haven't had notification about them being assigned or how it will work. Do we need to contact you or something?
Pierce Moore
So exciting! When do we find out which one we get? Do we just have to wait until we get them or? :)
Jason Youngberg
Can I have one please, my address is in my account?
Eric Duanmu
Will we get an email or tracking info when it ships?
Jacob Phillips
I think it just means you can't make copies and sell them. If it feels fair it's probably fair.
Megan Ankney
I was wondering the same thing. I sometimes stream for Extra Life donations throughout the year and am planning to hang it on the wall behind my gaming chair
Nick Kruse
Excited for this! Would having the picture in the background of a YouTube video be an allowable use? In the same way that books/bookshelves are visible in the background of videos? Thanks to you and your lawyer 🙂
