Can I ask you for some ideas for the 10$ perk? I feel it's not as rewarding as it should be. Have you got any further ideas for further digital content, or maybe a small postcard print? I've also changed the top tier (Crown of Leaves) that's been vacant until now. :)

Thanks so much for your input, people! <3

2015-04-09 06:51:24 +0000 UTCI think postcards are a go. ;)

2015-04-09 06:50:53 +0000 UTCYou really sum up my thoughts there, yes. I spent weeks working out the perks and balancing value, workload, and turnaround...

2015-04-09 06:50:22 +0000 UTCPostcards are probably the best way. Several people (hello Anja!) have already asked about them. I think it's time. ;)

2015-04-08 23:28:00 +0000 UTCI think if you add something new like postcards (which I'd love to get!!!), you'd probably have to add it to the higher tiers too which adds a greater expense and one more thing to manage. I do think post cards are fun and there'd be a German stamp for us collectors! You could add an A4 print like the $20 level but less frequently.

2015-04-08 23:24:56 +0000 UTCPersonally, I love the $10 perks already and I'm hoping to work my way up to it eventually. The chance to have a more experienced artist to touch base with and ask advice from is priceless!

2015-04-08 20:21:47 +0000 UTCElaborating a bit. I was also thinking of offering advice, and looking for something equivalent for non-artists. I suppose it's also proportional to what you'll get eventually, I am postulating that I shouldn't get more then 50$ a month in the first year or so (if I can spend enough time networking, maybe more) so the start budget isn't the same.

2015-04-08 20:04:09 +0000 UTCI've been racking my brain this evening find ideas for my own perks. But if I was to send a card monthly to a patron in the US it would cost me almost 6$ (or sending economy, about 4$ but it can take over three weeks to arrive as I found out) so that would eat almost all of the contributed money. Still worth a try, but just saying... adding too many thigns will nullify the efforts you put into it...

2015-04-08 18:11:50 +0000 UTCHmm, that's tricky. I guess the main reason why the 10$ tier is not working as well as most of the others might be that many of us aren't artists and therefore wouldn't know what to ask you in a personal tutorial. I'm always up for postcards. But you know that already :D I'll see whether I can think of something else ^^
