#b3d donations spiked recently due to their campaign. I suspect they'd spike further if people were personally invested in seeing specific features get developed. I'd certainly feel inclined to spread awareness of a campaign if I was assured my investment & promotion would yield benefits I sought.

Thing is, they say it's a lack of resources/team size prohibiting #b3d from working on texture layers, but I have a strong suspicion they'd get donation aplenty if they simply stated what they needed to make texture dev happen. I know I'd make an extra donation if I knew it'd go towards that.

Well deserved! 🙌

Same. It's why I try to devote 3-4 months of my year to it! It's like the great "reset/refresh" button.

Oh for sure. Know the rules and have a system. Then you can deliberately deviate from both when you have a solid reason for doing so and you know why you're getting the results you're getting. 😊
