......well, the main reason why i stopped selling skins was because i just couldnt justify the amount of time i put into a skin to recieve 40%
of the profits, i know the site needs support ect, but im also an aussie, so i lose another 10 dollars on top of whatever is left for me to recieve.
and......its not alot. Plus alot of people complain about 5 dollars and well, that does get on my nerves when other places sell things for 30 dollars plus and no one bats an eyelid so to speak.
i do recieve a disability pension from my government as i am unable to work due to my mental illness, but i dont think they would care about the
amount i got from masterskins since its such a little amount. i think for me its about 100 a fortnight or something and you have to tell them,
but i have never even come close to that amount, so that wasnt my issue.
probably at the time when i said i didnt need the money, i probably didnt, but my circumstances have changed.
and it only takes something so minor like a car registration or a breakdown of a washing machine to alter my circumstances 360.
but that being said, im not trying to play a violin here......im okay.
and to be frank i am still more than happy to sell my skins for free here, i get more pleasure NOW out of doing stuff for others, (i had a major artistic attitude adjustment last december)
as for sk6, it does have issues johnny, you should try creating a new skin in xp, and go to my documents as soon as youve created a new skin and applied it, the whole document window is covered in a blue and yellow image that is tiled over the whole window.
ive told neil about it, nothing is done, okay, i KNOW he is busy ect, but seriously, why cant this stuff just be fixed? it makes it so much more
easier for us skinners. fonts and other stuff ect, the list goes on as karen said.
but i dont want to go into that debate, its seems to be one of those 'to do lists'
id like to see it fixed in the future, it gives a brighter outlook to sk.
i also get tired of bugs on this site too, but thats another issue also, and there is no point going their either.
so now my situation is basically i DO need income, and im just turning to another resorce where i am sure i can generate it, and enjoy it.
but as i said before, i still will be here, helping, skinning, taking requests, (gem wb, fur wb) but only 50%
i hope i havent upset anybody by this.......but its just the way the dark side is taking me, and im following.
