Alright, I think after some not so happy interactions Ive had with people, Im going to start putting my foot down on how I treat commissions. Cause certain things have been irking me, and honestly, i should update my policies anyways.

From here on out, all my theme day commissions will be bumped from 35 USD to 40. Ive been meaning to raise prices anyways, so I figure a small increase wouldnt be as bad as a major one. However, im going to start using Invoices from now on as well. Its just easier to manage and to remind people about payment. And with Paypal's updates to their policies, its a lot safer too. And finally, Im going to start charging people at sketch phases from now on. This is the thing that irks me the most. Ive had two clients already become silent on me. And i hate having to work to a full picture, only for people to run off without giving whats due. So Im going to start charging upfront once the sketch is done.

People are fine to remind me about past commissions. I know Im extremely forgetful, and Im more than happy to work on stuff thats months old, if people still care about it. Id hate to feel like I didnt fulfill what i owed to someone simply because of my memory being bad. But yeah, Im going to start making these changes this month starting today.
