Might stop posting 2K+ pictures in the current tiers (poll below)...
Added 2023-09-27 19:38:32 +0000 UTCHi everybody!
The time has come for me to do something that will certainly brush some people off, but I feel the need to do it due to the recent pirating that happened :(...
Also, after some consideration plus feedback from various people (thanks for reaching out to me! :) ), I'll be trying something new with future updates to protect a bit more my content. No worries, I won't make you jump through a lot of hoops: it should be pretty straight forward!
Also, regarding a discord, I've been thinking a bit more about it but I'll need to some more research first!
Oh, and here's a little sneak-peek, because why not? By the way, the full panel of the feet on the left is even kinda turning ME on x_X...Oh my, oh my...
Now, about the bad news.
After checking other creator's patreons, I realized most of them don't propose 2k+ resolution pictures at such a low tier.
I started posting them for the €3 tier, which I realize now was a business and strategy mistake because I didn't plan this well enough.
However, I do not want to raise the price of that lower tier. I should have proposed lower regular HD pics for that tier (max 2000 pixels), and post 2K+ 300dpi pics for higher tiers.
To be clear, this is what I mean by lower res pics, which I think should be good enough for people to enjoy:

Some of the pages I've posted are 4000+ pixels, which is huge. And since the pirating tends to happen more with lower tiers, all of those super high res pictures are out there in the wild.
In the event my content finds its way online again, even with the new technique I'll try, I want to protect those super high res versions and really keep them on patreon for patrons.
With that said, I would like to start posting content in regular resolutions for the current tiers, and reserve the higher resolutions for future higher tiers. I'm not sure of the price yet. :/
I know this is the equivalent of any subscription websites telling you "sorry, we're increasing our prices", and I understand I will loose patrons because of this move.
I'm sorry, I'm the one to blame for having jumped head first into patreon without doing more proper research. I shouldn't have proposed super high res pics at that low price, and now all of that is online "You Know Where". :(
But, before I do anything, I want to know how much of an issue it would be for you. So you can vote below and don't hesitate to comment or contact me by PM with any suggestions you may have!
