The new date will be 30th November.

The gallery will be cleaned.

I post this because it was planned i'll delete every adopts unsold. But due to an health issue, i have to save all my energy to healing, i'll have scans soon to see what's wrong inside and i dont know if i'll be hospitilazed.

Sorry for customers who are actually waiting there works to be finished.

For the cleaning unsold adopt, i'll put a new date after been healed.

/Sorry for bad English, not English person, thank you for your understanding/


Summary
-Thank you
-Update of the shop
-Experience
-Discord Poject
-Suggestion for Adopt In Private note please
+For Open Specie suggestion
-After the 30 August for the old adopts


I wanted to let a message about what gonna happen next.

-Thank you

But first, i have to thank all of my customers who've invest their money into my works, even 1$ it was very helpful really.
You sacrificed a bit of your time spend to earn it into my products, it means a lot to me.
I know i've done mistakes during my time of work and i've learned from those to do better in the future.

-Update of the shop

I've decided to continue into selling adoptables, i've invested a part of this money into other artists for great bases to work on. I'm preparing a lot of different adoptables to avoid like before having same bases been used during one week.

There will be changing, based on the feedback i got during the period of my work, here an idea (not final):

Reduce the Starting Bid Price
Change the currency back to $
Simplify the auction system
More add-on already prepared
For Open specie: Warning about canon or non-canon
Proper credits for artist's base
Warning if it's an edited base

No 3+ sames base/specie sold per day, more diversity
Adopts post split during the day (using Postybirb)
More adopts per day

____

-Experience

However i know i'll probably get in troubles with those changes, specially the "more adopts per day".
During my period of work, i often got some feedback that make my experience quite a bit stressful, it got worse now with the AI and the experience i got with my gallery been blocked on an other website.

The majority of the persons weren't meant to be agressive or even accusing.
But getting during transaction in private note message like:
"Wouah you're too fast !"
"Are you sure you work alone ?"
"That was quick."
etc
That's why some of you may see a change of when i give the work or wip, instead of immediate when done, it was 24-72h wait.

It was first surprising to get those feedbacks, because i just use the software, like it's not magic or anything...
Now it's scary when you hear stories of people getting cancel because they are not in the "average" and/or are "inconsistent" and falsy accused of using AI.

(For instance i do different shading for fun, but it can be seen as "inconsistent" and i wouldn't be surprised the admin thought i was using AI to create a shading for my work or something, I don't know, the admin didn't want to spend time to talk and want to end this quick so it's only assumption)

And from the experience i got, when the cancelling process start, every "attempt" to prove it's not AI are considered as "make up to keep using AI" or something.

-Discord Poject

So to protect myself i've decided to also work on a discord server, to store informations about how i works.
My Keyboard shortcuts, explaining how i use each button.
How i work to make my adoptables fast.
Maybe some tuto of shadings i've made etc.

The idea is to vulgarize a way to use Photoshop that's not AI, to reduce this bipolarize conclusion some may have based on ignorance (or lack of knoweldge on graphic software) on what is non-AI and what is AI.
But also to prove that's not magical or AI.

Sending messages will be disabled, cause it'll not meant to communicate to each other, just to have a server to stock informations that'll be accessible for all.

-After the 30 August for the old adopts


There are a lot left to sell, i'll probably sell them as gacha for 1$/each.
If people are interested to purchase and resell them for 5$ after, i'm TOTALLY FINE with it.
If it can help you to get your life a little better while getting mine a little better at the same time, it's a win-win for both.

I'll see.

.....................

I know there are some persons who tried to check on me when i've stopped working.
And i didn't want to talk about my private life nor my feelings.

For the simple reason that i'm just here to work, to do my best to respect T.O.S of everyone, not getting in trouble with any systems, stay clean.
I'm not here to make friends nor enemies, just to get enough to live and do my time, that's it.

Just in case i'm checking my page in case someone want to purchase something.

I'll repost adoptables, maybe, one day.

If you want to purchase an adoptable, feel free to let a comment or contact me privately.

Hi, sorry for the low of posts.
I though i could get Paypal payment like in boosty.to via Gumroad, but it seems it's not possible.

So i try to contact Paypal to get the unban, it seems in Europe Paypal it is possible just had to follow some steps and explains the situation.
I have to wait some confirmations so the unban get applied.

Until then i got my paypal back:
- I'll let the adopts on gumroad.
- AFTER i got my paypal back, i'll remove the adopts from gumroad. (Cause i can't sell services and from what i've notice, people seems to prefer to ask what they want for custom nsfw/wing/outfit which is normal)

Also i was a bit disapointed with the tag systems. Limited to 8 displayed (the Top number with the Tag) and the tags are applied as [with at least] script not [AND] so instead of displayed products tags "male" [AND] "Black" (and reduce the number of products displayed) it displayed products [with at least] "male" tag and [with at least] "black".
Which lead to have a lot of products displayed.
Even if the "research" system offer a proper filter, customer don't necessary know what words are used...
Anyway, a combinaison of cons.

If you have adopts idea that you may be interested to be work on you can let ideas here.

(Sorry for bad english)
Thank you for your support.

Sorry for the customers waiting there work to be done, but i have to post this to avoid some people to think and maybe say i steal arts from other artists and use AI to make those adopts.

I had to do this after an admin in an other website furry contacted me. My gallery was blocked and deleted for a legit reason, I wasn't allow to sell adopt more than 1 per base. It's understandable
However, the interaction i had with this person didn't really ask how i do the work or anything. Just asking me if i did the bases (when each adopt have the original artist credited on them but fine), and when i answered no, directly be accused of stealing arts and make profit out of it.
...
And during the dialog the admin was "sure" the adopts wasn't made by me.

So I decided to try my best to proove i don't use AI art and i didn't steal the bases i used.
Because i can't risk someone probably in the community for a while to spread misinformation about my works, I don't have a job, this is my job. Can't risk to lose it.
I don't say he gonna spread misinformation for SURE, but i can't just ignore it even if it's a probability.


I didn't saved all my purchases infos so i did with what i have:
https://sta.sh/21stjnzj5agl?edit=1

And here the tutorial of how i work, it's a simplified version with some tips:
https://sta.sh/2b9ssl3btv5?edit=1


I have also done quickly a base, Draconubis (yeah naming stuff is not my thing), in case to proove that i actually know to use photoshop for a while and not just coloring.
I guess i've done this, cause it happens (rarely) some people considered individuals selling adopts are not competent like...Less than artist if you understand what i mean. It's like not possible someone selling adopt from other artist's base, can actually know how to draw etc. And i guess it's easier to think someone stealing instead of "Maybe that's the way this person do."

Yeah like i say in the color tutorial: I don't really think twice and i put the colors, I just do it fast. So it can end up be "wtf" or "i've seen those colors before" (cause i open palette color i've prepared and just use eyedropper on it).


Anyway, I Probably go back to work now ^^.

Hi sorry that someday i didn't put adopts or other time put less adopts that usual. Got some stuff to do in real life.

But wanted to know your opinion about some question i have been thinking.
Like i've notice some watcher come and go.

i know some customers are interesting in male not female and otherwise, same for color like natural and neon-like.
Would you prefer i make separate accounts for male and female or even femboy ? (i know some are interesting specifically into this body type).
Or separate into color type ? Natural and saturated color.

You can also let opinion on something else.

Sorry for bad english, thank you for your time reading and answers in advance ^^.

Hi i don't know what to do. Someone took my edited Avali's base and now sell or give it for free on a platform. What am i suppose to do ?
https://aminoapps.com/c/avali-nexus.....B8WBE11KNP8DtP

Is it normal ? Like "If someone do an Avali Base then Avali Nexus can sell it" ?

Hi thanks for everyone who answered my survey, it really helps me to think about all of this.
So i'm gonna end up with a system and try to satisfy everyone. Just hope it's not gonna be too complicate xD.

So first of all NEXT adopts will started as >>> Auction.
But instead of be 24 hours after last bid, it'll be >>> 48 hours after be posted.
After 48 hours the auction end the post will become >>> Fix price sell

The adopts already posted are fix price. (before the date this journal is posted)

AB1 will change from 75$ to 60$
AB2 will change from 120$ to 150$
AB3 will be deleted

SB value may change depending if the base was edited or not.

Also there will be no bonus features related to the AB but to the additionnal value add on the SB (Starting bid).
It'll be same system as a fix price during the auction.

In the end of the auction (IF there is a bidder during the time) the value on top of the SB will be used to get additional features (it's like the fix price system)

Exemple:
SB: 20$
Winner bidder: 35$
So additionnal value put is 15$ which can be used to add wings, add horns. Or add piercings/accessories, or getting nsfw.
(You can ask multiple time a same add-ons)

The value is here

+10$ custom NSFW
+15 focus parts (butt + Eye + Feet + Mouth)
+25$ full backview
+5$ piercings
+10$ jewels or accessories
+20$ underwear
+50$ outfit
+5 tattoo
+10 add wing
+5 add horns
+15 Breast change
+30$ edit body (thin/musclar | shorter/longer | etc)
+20$ edit 1 color or 1 element color


♦♦♦___________________________________________________________________♦♦♦
