I am dumb.
Is anyone able to explain the new print commission system to me?
I know we received a notice in our message center a few month back saying they were changing things to make it better for us, blah blah blah...
But when I went to purchase one of my own mugs just before I noticed the price we could buy our OWN art at had gone up by a third, and the commission percentage had gone DOWN... and I haven't touched any of my own price settings. Since the change my prices have stayed exactly the same but I'm getting less commission. What's the deal?
I don't want to put my prices up, but what's the point of selling something on here to get 10c profit? Which is what I actually got on a print sale just before. 10c!? I may as well give the art away.
How are any of the changes benefiting us?

My Etsy Shop is finally open!
I have refreshed a lot of my favourite prints and made them available for instant digital download. These are great if you need a quick gift for someone (print it on your home printer and frame it, no waiting for shipping). You can still purchase fully printed/framed artwork through my deviantart store ♥
Anyone have my art as tattoo's?
Does anyone have my art tattooed on them? I want to feature them on my website blog and would appreciate some good quality photos. I have a couple of people already with my Sink or Swim tattoo, and my Miss Kika piece, but there seems to be a couple more people out there who have them but haven't told me about it. I've only been able to find low-quality images of them on rate-my-tattoo type sites. I'm not even sure if some of the people who have them are from DA, as the artwork has filtered out onto tattoo inspiration blogs and sites like that.
So yeah, if anyone has (or knows of anyone who has) my art needled into their flesh please let me k
Tumble around with me :D
I FINALLY have a Tumblr account!
But I don't have a clue what I'm doing :\
I'm so out of touch with social media it's a joke.
All you young tech savvy whipper-snappers hit me up on there! :heart:

Yeah, they reset everyone's prices automatically, which I don't think was very cool.
The changes made it so you can get more of a profit from the same selling price if you sell them directly through DA. But you have to bump the prices back up yourself to do that. It REALLY sucks if you routinely buy your own prints to resell elsewhere, which is what I've done for years, to get more of the profit. Which I think might be a reason they made the changes, to discourage people from doing that.
I wouldn't mind if I ever actually SOLD any prints here on DA. But for whatever reason, I don't, so I agree, the changes suck.
