what do you guys think of "western union" as a pay service?
7 years ago
I know there is no buyer protection, but quite frankly I'm getting quite tired of certain payment processors flexing their muscles trying to butt in on political nonsense which is an egregious and alarming abuse of power. To my knowledge western union asks 0 questions and will not seize your funds unless the FBI instructs them to because you are some kind of terrorist or drug dealer. I've actually gotten some great commissions from a few people who are international and can't seem to use paypal for whatever reason. Just something to consider is all; if you know of any other startups that can act as a similar platform without injecting their personal politics into transactions please educate me on the service.
also I'm getting better at sketching, I was considering trying to stream to kind of motivate myself to work under pressure. this might not happen until after new years, but any thoughts/suggestions on that?
on a bit of a tangent, to all the war-frame fans what do you think of the new "arbitration" mode? for the first time it felt worth it to go into an endless mission for 2-3 hours (to sell either "power donation" or alternatively max ranked "adaptation" mods for 200 a pop), I probably made around 2k plat just using this mode. BTW slight shill alert, I'm willing to sell some of the other rare mods besides adaptation at max rank for 160 also (lol I know people only want "adaptation" but it's worth a try XD)

ruining"enhancing" other people's stuff; I've learned to kind of correct my own stuff by adding superfluous muscle and stuff to other people's work. when I do something from scratch I tend to sit on it a super long time before I do the whole color thing, if I get to it at all. At some point I want to be more spontaneous and maybe have something sketched and colored the same day. something like that is key if I want to re-open commissions again one day.I could probably link you a thing or 2 in notes if you're interested. I don't think I have anything using the new technique I picked up from
But as for other things...... you do lose a LOT on transaction costs. so i can not see anyone really using WU as an art commission venue?
There's other paypal alternatives, i never bothered with. i dont even remember their names. But you may want to try them out.
wait am I reading this right, are you saying paypal allows them to sell more knockoffs? I would have guessed it was the other way around lol
But.... the flipside, maybe a customer can complain of a service not rendered.
