    The Importance of Testing Moderators

    This is another old guide of mine that I've spruced up a bit. -- Moderators are an important aspect to any company, that includes pet site games! They're the face of your business, the ones dealing directly with your userbase and customers. They're the ones keeping everything safe and...

    Item Coloring Tutorial

    Two step by step walkthrough examples of how I cel shaded items. The art is a little dated, but the method I use is still similar and this should still be helpful regardless. :) The important thing is to keep in mind light source and to have it be consistent throughout the item, it's varying...

    How to Get Started

    (To be fair, this is an old guide I typed a while ago, though I went through it and fixed it up a bit.) I figured I'd post a 'How to Get Started in VP World' guide-esque. This will mainly contain my thoughts on what I feel are most needed to get started in making your own virtual petsite. You...

    Selling Artwork Advice?

    Happy to help! I guess in case you may want it, here's my tips on marketing on Deviantart: http://fav.me/d8ykf2k I guess it could be useful for general follower gaining, and they may share your stuff around which could help you reach the right people? Worth a shot, perhaps? XD

    Selling Artwork Advice?

    What you're looking for is marketing advice, which is something I can't really help with, unfortunately. I have no idea how to market on anything apart from Deviantart, and you don't want to be doing commission work there. ^^; Perhaps look into marketing tutorials? Maybe YouTube or Coursera...

    Digital art versus physical art.

    It's typically referred to as "traditional" and not "physical" :) I have to do both or I'll never be happy x'D I grew up drawing with a pencil and paper and came into digital art a bit after the initial boom. Least for places like Deviantart and online art communities. It took me a couple...

    ArtFight 2017

    Omg I saw you and Choco posting about this on Twitter and I had NO IDEA what it was XD  This makes so much more sense now, haha. Damn, if I had the time! Ugghh looks like so much fun. Shame it's only once a year ;o;

    Building a following as an artist, advice and guidance?

    It's definitely not like it was in its hay day, and I'd surely be sitting in the 400s still if I hadn't figured out the strategies I did. That's awesome that FA works so well for you :)   Ah thanks for the offer! I've purchased some of what I've needed already, it's mostly just some Copic...

    Pet Simmer Julie

    If you guys haven't already subscribed to her YT channel, I highly recommend it. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCf01d3LdEjuTlVYskfEf9Mg She covers quite a few sites (with a bit of sass) and it's rather entertaining ;) Could also be good for those looking to market their game, she's...

    Building a following as an artist, advice and guidance?

    Understand the social media platform you're using. Every single one is different and caters differently for different audiences. What works on Twitter won't work on Facebook, for example. Doing the research on what platform is right for you (as you'll want to be actively using it and engaging...

    Making a patreon without compromise?

    Patreon promotes a reward system as that system tends to get you the best return, but you are entirely allowed to have a no-reward tier (as you're required to have a tier listed but you can state that it's just a tip jar and all they're really getting is the good-feels). Just make sure what...

    Making a patreon without compromise?

    I've seen a lot of people use Patreon as just a tip jar with no real rewards apart from furthering the creator's ability to work/generally support the creator. Keep in mind, without a following to start, you're most likely going to see little to no success with it. Not trying to bring you down...

    Using a mouse over an art tablet, thoughts?

    Drawing with a mouse is 100% possible and you can do a TON with it. That said, if you want to make things easier on yourself, that's why tablets were invented. You won't magically be a genius with digital art after getting a tablet (as soooo many beginner artists believe), but it'll make things...
