(Important stuff) Content packs and general updates.
🕑 Added 2018-06-12 09:01:15 +0000 UTC I thought about stuff to make your life easier. My life as well.I am currently a little unhappy with Patreon's interface, especially for comic reading purposes. It's a little clunky and you cannot comfortably zoom into the images.
Moreover, not everyone has access to third-party sites and galleries.
They are good for collecting feddback, though. But that's another deal.
All I thought about is Google Drive storage, with a special patreon-only folders with comics and recent drawings. This allows more comfort, much easier for me to administrate and control, and it is less exploitable than the current system.
This is what I'm planning to do:
Each month, after all of the pledges were proccessed (around the 5th or 8th), there are gonna be updates with comic pages and an additional content pack, that depends on your tier.
They will be send directly to your mail adress. Please note that, the access will be tied to your email, so use a real one, or the one you are comfortable with for such purposes.
>"Chtonic" tier will stay the same.
All of the content will be aviable for a several amount of months (I'm thinking about the actual number), then archived or published to other sites in lower quality.
Though, not all of the content will be published elsewhere.
That way I won't run out of storage really quick and it will prevent people from exploiting the thing where you can wait for several months, pledge only once and get all the content for several pledges with just one pledge.
I understand that I am not directly selling art or something, it is more of a supporting thing, but I've struggled with some exploiters in the first months of this patreon page. People were pledging, then withdrawing, then pledging...
If you just want the content - I publish it elsewhere anyway eventually in SD quality, because I obviously need a way to attract followers and/or clients. Not all of it, though, I repeat.
-------------------------------------------------
I will boot some API or other program to gather Patrons' mail adresses and allowing them access to a certain folders.
I can do that with a patreon messenging software, but I cannot add access via that thing.
This will definitely take some time for me to figure out how can I make that work.
Please hold your tits and stay calm. I hope that I will be able to figure that out till the next payment cycle.

If you're going to with google drive, I'd recommend using a "burner" account just for this purpose since google is known for suspending accounts for various violations as well as ALL RELATED ACCOUNTS. Make sure it's not linked to any account that you value via say, a recovery email address or something. <3 (also, how about e-hentai?)
