11 September, 2018 - Major Update for Patrons

Hey, folks!

Over the weekend, you may have noticed my page was down. In fact, it was actually suspended for violating the Community Guidelines in formatting and post content (primarily due to the Pixiv-exclusive content shared in the $2 "Plus" tier). Two things I'd like to clarify right off the bat.

• Firstly, no need to worry about me, I'm obviously back in business here.
  
• Secondly, that content isn't lost and I'll be working to restore at least most of it this week so you guys can access your rewards like before.

I figured this would be a good opportunity to not only clean up the format of my posts to be more Patreon-friendly, but also streamline the reward delivery process. 

So without further ado, here's what I have planned.

[  Changes to Post Format  ]

• $1 Basic posts (stuff you'd find on my Tumblr) will largely remain the same. Instead of a .gif or full picture preview for the posts, however, I'll be posting somewhat obscured thumbnails to keep things safe for discreet viewing. You'll still be able to download these rewards directly from the posts, too.
  
• $2 Plus posts (stuff you'd find exclusively on my Pixiv) are where things will differ more. Unlike the $1 rewards, the rewards from these posts will now be hosted on a separate site and linked within the description, and no preview picture or .gif will be used. The separate site will probably be MEGA since the 2016 pack is already there, but I'm open to suggestions and will look into alternatives if enough people have trouble with it.

[  Changes to Tier Rewards  ]

• Every January onward until further notice, $1 and $2 patrons will receive access to annual archives containing all of their tier's content from the previous year. In other words, come January 2019, you guys will be able to access a folder containing all of 2018's pictures and animations from whatever tier you're supporting. Naturally, $2 patrons will get both packs.
  
• Furthermore, starting this week, you'll receive access to a 2017 annual pack containing all of your rewards from that year. No need to wait for me to repost every 2017 animation and picture across individual posts – you'll be able to pick and choose or grab them all at once on there if you wish. There may even be some previously unreleased content in there!
  
• $10 patrons will now receive access to the "Ultimate" pack, which will bundle every completed year into one big, convenient folder and exclusively contain the 2016 annual pack.
  
• Active $2 patrons will now receive a 10% discount on my commissions. My commissions page can be found here.
  
• The future of the monthly poll will be in your hands! I'll be looking for feedback concerning it and a few other matters in a separate update post.

And that's all for now! I very much appreciate your continued support and cannot apologize enough for the inconvenience stemming from this whole ordeal. Hopefully things will go a bit more smoothly from here on with a new system in place.

Until next time~
