I.. have a weird eclectic sort of knowledge.. done computer science stuff, but I fail hard when you get to programming logic.. I cannot logic.. I can't do math via formula, I get the answer, I don't do steps between, and same with programming, I can see the solution, no clue how to gett there

I have an excuse for not being security-conscious. I know jack all about technology.

and ehh I have a reasonable level of paranoia, I hang with ex blackhats - now work as whitehats, and did the odd bit of stupid stuff when younger, I'm probably less security conscious than I should be really, buh eh, it's get tiring.

Prints are an option for the future if ever my work gets to that standard.

Punky if you want to sell xmas card you need to get them out now - 2 weeks average of card travelling through post to recipient from buyer. 1 week average finish writing from purchase date. If you're selling physical product - 3 weeks of printing and posting them to you. Days buyers spend shopping before purchasing.

So punk, you use a vpn also? I didn't even know duckduckgo, ha, I guess the internet (and marketing) is the wrong place for paranoid people!

marketing sucks.. I'm going to pay someone to do it for me when I get good enough to be selling arts... geesh.. self promotion + introversion.. nope!

Marketing yourself is the main factor.

I'm thinking of making some xmas cards and throwing them on gumroad as a pay what you want if anything/ donation thing.. just because I wanna make some xmas cards anyway, so I might as well share them

You need all of those - and the marketing is a continuous, regular, repeating effort until you decide to stop making money from prints.

I think it really depends on your art, your followings, and your marketing strategies.

never tried selling any Nous, I think if you do fanart in your style and hit conventions you'd sell some, other than that *shrugs*

Or what I mean is, is there much money to be made off prints?

... there is a search engine called duckduckgo...

I find duckduckgo is just as good as google as far as search engines go, and it doesn't track you.. I did used to use Tor, but a lot of places started not letting you log in

I get annoyed with the bullshit that forces people to out themselves, I know a lot of people who won't, due to being trans, or in hiding from an ex or whatever, not everyone wants the world to know who they are, safety issues
