Update - Switching to "charge up front"
Added 2020-07-01 22:20:40 +0000 UTCOver the last three months, I have noticed an increasing issue with declined payments and being scammed on here. I would like to avoid this issue as much as possible, so I have decided that I am going to be changing my payment setting and charging up front starting today.
No current patrons will notice any difference as you will still be charged the 1st of each month, but this will impact new and returning patrons who will be charged the moment they pledge moving forward. Hopefully this resolves the "dine and dash" predicament I have found myself in.
Having gotten that out of the way, I want to leave this update off on a more uplifting note and thank all of the patrons who genuinely support me and the artwork I make here. It's such a joy to talking to each and every one of you and I look forward to many more months of creating cheeky cartoon fellas for all of you to sink your teeth into. I'm feeling a Disney theme for this month based off suggestions I've received... specifically the fella that puts the "glad" in "gladiator" and everyone's favorite carpet riding streetrat. <3

I was really on the fence about the change as it is irreversible, but the more I thought about it, I realized it will only become a bigger issue over time. Upon research, I fortunately found out that no current patrons would be impacted, so I went ahead and made the change instead of waiting for a "right" time. And you know you can expect the sexy male toons from me that's for sure! ;)

2020-07-01 22:50:55 +0000 UTCI've seen a lot of Patreon creators switch to charging pledges when they join for the same reason you have. It looks like that is the best solution for now. And also! cant wait to see what you have in store for us in the future! 💖✨✨
