Small commission tweak
🕑 Added 2019-08-23 06:14:24 +0000 UTCSo, fort he $10 and higher tiers, you're able to get commissions from me even when I don't have comms available publicly. A sample of rates is here:

(Note that these may be subject to change.)
That all said, truth be told as soon as I got back from break I got a lot of commissions in a very short time period, and it was for a lot of high complexity commissions too. A huge part of this Patreon's purpose is to reduce the number of commissions I need to do so I can instead focus on bigger personal projects. If I'm getting too many commissions, it's defeating that purpose.
So, there are also two changes I'm thinking of implementing:
- Limit the comms you can get to one per month (or a 'complexity threshold'. Like you can get a few lower complexity comms one month, or one big complex pic per month.)
- Require someone has been a patron for at least one month before they can get a commission. (To avoid the situation of "pledge for one week just to comm, then remove pledge")
I've also considered doing something like slots per week (like maybe just 2 or 3). Usually maxing out slots wouldn't happen, I don't think, but it'd be there to reduce the complications from surges of commissions.
What do you guys think? Does anyone else have ideas, comments, feedback, suggestions, disagreements, etc.?

Sounds like a solid plan! I think 2 per week would be the better option, complexity threshold is actually a nice concept too, that way you're not drawing a ton of hugely detailed comms a lot.
