#our time; work and the content we acquire and licenses cost more than say... 15usd. which seems like a standard rate.

hey loves. i know this isn't ideal, but any future icon borders will start having a minimum price on ko-fi. i love creating things and coming up with designs, but i need to also focus on breaking even with the costs of my licenses, and perhaps stop making a loss financially with this. it's my hobby, yes, but i also view it as a side project & a pocket money style income stream. prices won't be expensive, but expect the minimum to be between £0.50 and £1.50 from hereon out.

free borders and dividers will still be shared, as well as psds when i come to making them. paid dividers will be due to their levels of customisation.

with all this being said — the rules remain the same regardless if they are paid or free: all content must be credited appropriately, failure to do so will result in blacklisting, if it happens on a consistent basis then that will result in all downloads being made private & through IM only, with evidence of crediting being provided. if you buy a product that allows you to input your url, that does not mean you can claim you made it yourself. credit me.

#ennakros posts . #i dont like having to focus on paid content but when you pay hundreds out in licensing and commercial use— #there comes a point where you want to start feeling the benefit. #and i wont be charging a lot. #i should be. other creators have higher prices and are still underselling themselves. #our time; work and the content we acquire and licenses cost more than say... 15usd. which seems like a standard rate. #we shouldn't be underselling ourselves but we do. #and i won't be asking for a lot. i've got the statistics for my downloaded items. #if each person paid £1 i'd have already made a tiny dent in my costs. #but yeah. free content will continue but just less so.
