some updates❔, april cycle start + base tier finalization!! omg (not an april fool AH)

(scroll down to avoid the text wall and see the summary's summary)

aah hi again!! it's the end of the commission cycle! thank you so much for sticking with me!!! commissions 115 + 117 are generated, and 116 + 118 have to be completed! however these fortunately will be completed by the end of the week! + the comic soon yes omg cant wait!

anyways! for updates to the base tier🥀the details of the increase are still the same as the pricing updates post (quoted it below) however some things have changed? from it kind of?

"for the biggest one, the base tier! when i started this 2 years ago i set it to $4 CAD/mo, (or $2.92 USD/mo), during march (or when the second comic releases) i may increase the price of the base tier by 2 maple syrup dollars, to a total of $6 CAD/mo, or $4.38 USD/mo. personally i think 5 usd (6.85 cad) is too much, since i'm using ai! so i decided on going in the middle. regardless it is still a 50% increase from the previous (increase of $2 CAD or $1.46 USD per month)"

i decided to change the tier price to april to give the first cycle of the new system a test run, and tentative on if i got the job for housing during my program's final year and... i did not get it! 😭😭 GULP ! so i fear plan A did not work! i must pay city rent when that comes soon omg‼️‼️at least more time for this during that ahahah (<-- copium)

but yes!? some more changes! i decided to adapt this system vvv yes

"as such! i will be having regular random free commission things? for the base tier and free members when all the commission tiers are finished in the cycles!"

into opening a form for requests that i can randomly pick and complete if i need something to post! (sadly cannot do all requests though🥀 i really wish i had the time to do them all) but yeah, i will try post more frequently and make more comics / original content / videos to justify this increase!

i will apply the 50% change to the base tier at like 5:30PM EST today!

April commission cycle started! commission and request forms opened until ~April 24th! will make posts

okay! now for general updates/recap besides that!

thanks to feedback on the form i've switched the platform for submitting forms / requests (tally) its kind of like notion which is peak hahaha

painfully made an automatic image count calculator in it for less ambiguity! still subject to change! AH !

for some reason theres no rounding so there's if statements for all whole numbers 1-37.... wow

i am sadly still waiting on hearing back from deviantart !!!

trying to maybe get the green light to be able to make another account! maybe ill open another ticket to appeal

if this happens, i'll be able to complete the posting workflow/script which would reduce the time it takes to post to:

here, mega, r34, deviantart, and pixiv, by 90% or more! omg

new video workflows have been installed! have not had the time to try them though

even more tests to the model are to be trained today! just investigating different checkpoints as a base for my LoRA yes!

thank you all so so much for supporting me! especially throughout this peculiar period hahaha, i truly mean it! thank you again!
