I think they no longer do that? Or at least far loosened how they restrict nsfw stuffs (probably because it was costing too much business)

Cause I've seen not-tiny amount of nsfw artists with an active kofi links, so something's gotta be up

Links to the site is okay I think, it's nsfw links *from* the site that they don't like. It's a one way trip kinda thing

Need to have a proper schedule, work uploading pace, etc etc, before I ever turn this drawing things into an actual business

Isn't there a service to post to multiple sites at once? In fact one instantly spring to my mind, Postybirb

In fact to follow up, I don't think existing on only 1-2 site (bsky) is a good idea if it's business you need. There's Vgen but it doesn't seem to be a dominant art site?

Gotta expand and put your foot down if you want some staying power

Wouldn't that mean Substar is still some income source? Some is better than none, keep it around as a tip jar at least

As for newgrounds, similar deal above, some is better than none, and you're strapped for traffic.

If I may ask, whatever happened to your Substar and Newground?

Like you ditched patreon because of them being fishy, understandable, you ditched twitter because of same reason, eh stretching it but also understandable. But those top 2 sites? They're just traffic and extra money left on the table

That's still a form of paywall I feel; and there's many more form of paywall that doesn't alienate people

I think for now, for publicity purpose, post more smut (if you're comfy with it obv, don't do fetish you hate)

Well no, this is even worse

You're basically asking people to pay up/pay attention to your art before they're even a fan, it's a surefire way to push people away

First steps first, try "shilling" harder, and make people aware of your situation before doing any drastic decisions

Wait I forgot to properly do lighting for her skirt 💀💀💀💀

I'm not doing another upload, edited version is in my FA and DA
