I Made a Ko-Fi! (And I stream now!)
6 years ago
So, after a lot of thought and asking a few close friends, I set up a Ko-Fi page. I feel most of the traffic will come from my Picarto streams (see below), but it doesn't hurt to spread the word about these things.
What's all this about Picarto streaming? For the past month or so, I've been streaming when I cook myself dinner. I try to make it entertaining, quasi instructional, and maybe even a bit funny. During these streams, I film myself, with the microphone on, going through the various stages of meal preparation from washing and cutting produce, to frying, and lastly, to plating my dinner. Most streams last about an hour or so, sometimes more, sometimes less. I don't advertise it too much here because cooking, to me, is not furry art really. However, I feel you guys might be interested because it gives you a chance to directly interact with me.
There's no set schedule as to when I cook; due to various IRL obligations, I may or may not be able (or willing) to cook on a given night. Streams will usually occur Monday through Saturday (though not every night) between 6 and 9 PM New York Time (EST/EDT). If you're interested in watching, check out the link below:

I usually announce my streams in a number of Discord servers which are invitation only through various artists. If possible, I try to join streams of other artists (mostly for company).
Back to Ko-Fi...
I want to be straightforward with everyone - I do not need money the way some artists do. I have a job, a career, and I am living comfortably. Ko-Fi will serve strictly as a tip jar. Any money I receive here will go back into one of two places:
1) Improving my streaming - A proper camera, tripod, etc. or any other means to improve my streaming experience. If this *really* takes off, I'll upgrade my internet speed so I can push higher frame rates for you guys.
2) More commissions - As stated before, I can't really draw too well. What I can do is certainly not worthy of charging money for. However, Emmy the 'sune seems popular enough within the community (please correct me if I am wrong), and any additional funds here would go towards commissioning more art of her.
Here's the link to my Ko-Fi page:

I am eternally grateful for each and every one of you. I have been floored by how inclusive the furry/tf community is. Please feel free to comment on any of the above here.
Best, Emmy V.
