I was given ms paint doodles to do both of these commissions. You don't need ANY drawing experience to convey a concept to an artist who is willing to work with you. Stick figures and crude doodles are awesome. Just communicate.

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

Canadians! There is a petition to sign to protest Mastercard and Visa's control over the purchase of legal adult content. This is specifically about the Steam & itchio situation, but language protects adult creators.

Woke up to quite the update on this. I had been in contact with Payment Cloud about getting their service and they waited until now to hit me with the image below. Again, stringing me along instead of being upfront. They had seen my website multiple times before this.

Not just cat ears either. A seller was told that "fantasy" in general (with "cat ears, fairies, etc" given as examples) is prohibited due to Visa/Mastercard rules.
Anne Rice? Nekopara? Elf cosplay OF models? Lexx? Highlander? Conan the Barbarian (1982)?
All banned because of a prude at a bank.

Think its stupid that VISA and Mastercard think something as innocent as Cat Ear accessories are a bannable offense?
Then heres something you can do about it. Complain to visa and MC, call your representatives.

Going to the library fucking rules. You can walk in and pick your favorite things and then walk right out without paying anything. It's unbelievable and 100% the kind of thing that won't exist in the future unless you recognize the goodness now before it's too late
Hey, as a librarian I need to tell you:
Our funding depends on usage.
So go ahead and check out that book even if you don't think you'll finish it. No one will know. Check out that DVD even though you might not like it. Get ambitious in your quest for knowledge.

I think it needs to be pointed out as well that Visa is clearly losing money off these calls clogging their systems and still thought it was worth the money to re-train their employees/contractors. They're not scared enough to drop the issue altogether, people need to keep calling and snail-mailing.
Visa is now actively shutting down calls regarding their censorship and prohibition of the sale of legal product.
They clearly retrained their staff on how to deal with our calls. That doesn't happen unless there's critical mass.
KEEP IT UP. They are trying to turf the calls as fast as they can.

I'm seeing less posts about the Visa and Mastercard situation and I want to make it plain as day. You need to keep calling and bothering them, and losing them money.
Because if we lose this, they are going to cut more and more from what's available until you can only buy what they approve of.

Spoke with an anon source who had an interesting insight into Visa policy. Per a convo with their bank on the Steam/itchio situation today, Visa put new restrictions into place due to a new "government policy." The exact phrase used by Visa. No specific country was listed as the source of the policy
