Commission raffle ideas...
Added 2025-11-24 18:37:43 +0000 UTCI'd like to get back into taking commissions semi-regularly at some point in the hopefully-not-too-distant future, and I've got a couple ideas for how this could go in a way that's maybe more accessible for more folks.
First option would be some form of "make a donation to -insert charity/organization-" of some minimum amount (~$5 USD?) to enter, maybe with the option for an extra entry if you donate more (say, $10+) and the winner can choose any commission type from the menu on my commiss.io page.
The second option would be a free raffle; enter by submitting reference art of the character you'd like drawn, and the winner(s) are chosen randomly. The commission type would be limited to smaller projects like uncolored sketches, headshot portraits with flat color, etc.
I thought posting a poll here would be a good way to gather at least a rough estimate of the levels of interest for these ideas.
So with all that said: would you be likely to participate in any of these? (Check all that apply)

Mostly because I don't want to have an entirely "pay to win" situation in the context of a raffle (I figured allowing one additional entry with a bigger donation would still keep it somewhat fair), BUT I could also definitely see hosting an auction and passing the proceeds along to the designated organization!
