Hi there,

I hope you are all well and staying safe.

I want to trial a change to how members of the Psycho Killer tiers download the videos. Hopefully, it will make things easier for me as well as providing a better experience for new Psycho Killers.

At the moment, the downloads are distributed via WeTransfer, which is a great service. However, it has created a few issues that I didn't foresee when I launched.

WeTransfer isn't permanent cloud storage SO I have to upload a file(s) every time I want to send it on. When new members join a tier with download benefits, it can take up to 24-48 hours to catch them up with all the downloads they're entitled to.

I want to try using DropBox and see how we get on with that. So the download procedure will be as follows ...

I upload the file to DropBox
I'll post a link to the DropBox file on Patreon but edit the visibility of the post so only members with download benefits can see it
Those members click on the link, visit the download page and click on the download arrow icon (see below)

The main benefits with the new system is that I only have to upload a file once and do a post. And then as people join the Psycho Killer tiers, they'll unlock those posts and get instant access.

At the end of every month, I'll move the month's releases to a different folder on DropBox so only the members of the catch-up tier, Psycho Killer Rampage, can access them.

Let me know what you think in the comments or via DM
