Big news, changes, and exciting things
8 years ago
Hey there everyone!
Been a while since I've had a legit "this is what is happening in my life" journal. Figured this would be a very good time to do it. In recent news, I got a new furbaby, an adorable little kitty named Mizu. She's a rescue from an abusive family and her tail had to be amputated because of them. She happy and healthy now and a giant pest that I adore. I'll post pictures of her up soon! In other news, I will be attending Twitchcon this year so anyone heading that way in October, gimme a poke! I'd love to say hi!
As for changes with art, I am making some really large ones. Most importantly, I will be pulling away from Picarto. I will still stream on it, though I no longer have premium so no more multistreams unless someone else invites me. The reasons for this are many, but most importantly, I want to transfer to streaming predominantly on Twitch. Twitch is the company my mate works for as an admin and he is very passionate about it. I want to support that however I can. I also really want to help grow their art community in new ways. So Yes, adult Picarto streams will still happen. They will be frequent until my main list of commissions is cleared, but after that they will drop down to two days a week. I will however, stream the rest of the week on Twitch. I am sorry if this is sad news but for me it is super exciting. I just got my affiliation sub button with twitch, which is a great first step. I'll have emotes up very soon as well.
I also have several fun things planned for stream content, chances for free art, games you can play with me during the streams and other shenanigans to look forward to! I hope you are as excited to see what happens as I am! 8D

i'll follow u on twitch for sure :D
hope all changes work out :D
I like Picarto, but Twitch offers more opportunities to make being a full time streamer and artist more viable. With Picarto, I have to get 8 subscribers just to cover the cost of their premium package, 3 for basic. I understand the reasoning for why they have this system, but subs are going to be difficult to get in the first place in such a small viewer pool, add in membership fees on top of the $2.50 they take from every $5 sub, and it isn't really worth it for me. I would much rather have people sub to me on Twitch because their money wouldn't just all be going back to the site.
Sorry, I hope that made sense haha
