Just a small thing, 3PM. I wouldn't use YCH. Commissions to run your auctions. For a lot of people that will spot your work on here, something as simple as a registration to a new website can be the difference maker between them bidding or not (most of which are impulse).

I was tempted a few times to bid (I shouldn't, due to limited funds), but it was the registration onto the website that I've been avoiding that actively stopped me from acting on that impulse and I likely won't be alone.

Just my two cents for future YCHs. You do good work. It's a shame for them to sell for less than they're worth.

That's good insight to know! I'll see if I can do something about that in the future. Because I do have my own separate issues with the website myself, and am currently looking for better options.
If you don't mind me asking however, what do you mean of registration?
I'd tested it with a friend so I could understand the bidding process a bit more, as I'd not until recent gone through the effort of experiencing it for myself.
As far as I am aware, it only asks for an Email, name to put the bid under, and how much is being bid.
Unless you mean handing out one's email to a website and not just the artist alone, I can understand how that could discomfort someone.

I do feel I should clarify why I use the site however. Running YCHs on FA and twitter is very... frustrating for me.
So the site makes it considerably easy to do it instead. Albeit at the sacrifice of, well, others needing to go through that little process to place a bid.
If you do know other options that offer similar service that, might take out the hassle of even needing to supply an email on the site, PLEASE inform me immediately @w@

It's that element of the website knowing their e-mail. As ridiculous as that is, because they've already handed it out to Furaffinity, yet some people can be very odd about it.

It's a shame that it's like that. Honestly I'd just do the bare minimum to get them on board. A nice detailed write up of instructions in big bold writing, so if anyone misses out, that's on them. Have the actual bids take place on FA (It's incredibly rare for a Twitter user to not have FA) and then just direct them to the actual page to bid.

Please make sure to place your bid direct to the person that had bid before you. Failure to do this will result in your bid not counting and someone else may instead bid for the amount you intended to.

A snipe guard will be in place for 15 minutes after each new bid after the allotted time. Make sure you're watching your auction so you don't miss out!
