Updates and Changes to Terms of Service
4 years ago
Hello everyone, I hope you are all doing well and good~
I know some of you have been asking through notes if my commissions will open now that my queue is empty but the short answer is no, or at least not yet. And no, I don't know when they'll be opened again.
My commissions will probably be opening more sporadically and less announced. I'm sure people won't prefer this but it'll be easier and less stressful for me to do it this way. My life may or may not be changing this coming Fall so I need to change the way I do commissions before then.
Something else I'm sure people won't enjoy...I will be increasing my prices before my next commission opening. I wish I could keep them lower but if I'm going to continue doing this, it was inevitable that they would need to increase sooner or later. I'm not sure by how much, but I'll announce them before the next opening.

Terms of Service Changes
I've made three different changes to my ToS, and I've made these changes based on the past few years that I've been doing commissions (aka they're not based on a specific one person). I felt like mentioning this because I don't want anyone to think I've changed things because of them...so you can relax!
1. "If your commission involves another person, I need confirmation from the other person that they acknowledge and agree to being involved in the commission. I will only accept a note of furaffinity/email from the other person saying they agree."
I made this change because sometimes there's no way for me to know whether the other people would even want to be involved in a NSFW commission. Sometimes it's obvious (significant other, friend, etc..) and in those cases I'll make an exception, but for situations where it's less obvious, I'd like a confirmation first. This may get in the way of gifts but I'd still prefer this method to avoid unnecessary drama in the future.
2. "New rule involving notes being left on read: I understand life can be busy, but so can mine. I do not have time to wait entire days for a response from you while it is very clear you are active online. After 2 days of leaving my notes on read, I will send you a final note giving you 1 day to reply before I move on with other commissions. Whether refunded or delayed will be a case by case basis."
I...can not even count the amount of times I've had to wait for a confirmation involving a WIP, while my note has been read and a simple yes/no is all that's needed. Sometimes it's a literal week I've had to wait...while it's VERY clear the person is active. I'm done being ignored, sorry. Like it states, this will be a case by case thing and I'll see how well it goes.
3. Sequence commissions that involve another character will now include additional character fees PER panel, not just once. Since I usually draw inflation, sequences that involve 2 characters becoming max size usually involves more work for coloring. Therefore these additional fees will depend on the size of the additional character (if both characters get larger in the sequence = higher price; if one character gets larger while the other character gets smaller = lower price)
I will make these fees more clear once the new prices are made.
And, that's it for now! Lots of changes but necessary ones. Thanks for reading and wishing you all the best~

These all seem reasonable honestly.
