[not] Much change is coming...

So Patreon changed things up a little bit, and we will all have to adapt to it. No biggie, though!
Before, I would just make a paid post with an artwork in it, and select which tier is the lowest one that can see it. It was the same for free posts. Well, they made a change here, and now I can decide which tier sees a post ONLY WHEN IT'S A FREE POST. I actually thought it was a bug, so I contacted staff, and they basically said that this is their way of tackling the "unable to charge certain tiers while not charging others" problem.
Pretty silly, to be honest, but what can you do. On a side note, there are hints that they might change this entirely sometime. Here's hoping!
ANYWAY!
What will change here, you ask?
Instead of making a charge post with a picture in it, like I did so far, I will have to make TWO posts:
- An empty charge post visible to everyone;
- A free reward post, visible to a certain tier and above, with the artwork you were charged for in the other post.
Seems inelegant and spammy? Yeah, it does, but that's how Patreon says I'm supposed to handle it. But you know what? There might just be a redeeming factor to this. I'll have to think about it, and I know everybody would be happy if I did it. :3
...except for my paranoia. v_v
We'll see.
And while I'm at it, thank you all once more for your unending support! It has had a huge impact on my life so far, and I know it'll only keep getting better from here. :D
Pssst... I'm doing a pretty big upgrade of my workstation around February... you know what THAT means! *points at milestone goals*
...thank you so damn much. ;v;
