Digital Art Zone

I’m also going to keep my account as is without subscribing - for the time being. If they start putting in more ads or otherwise “encouraging” subcriptions then I’ll re-evaluate the decision.

I was quite happy with the $2.10 I generated over there over about 15 months or so

I have talked via e-mail with David and he is going to keep the site the same as it is now but offer subscriber to pay $10 a YEAR to use the site ad free if they want to also.

Yeah-I just got a reply from Dave. I guess I just misunderstood how it was going to work-so as of now I will be leaving things as they are.

Easy enough to have misunderstood!  Glad your work will remain so people can continue to enjoy it!

For alternatives, I suggest DA or Mediafire.  DA can show promos but MF can host any file you want and hide stuff too so you can use it to share certain files with only certain people and not have to email everyone.

I agree that the first email was rather vague. I wasn’t sure if I was going stay either, but I’m glad they cleared that up.

I wouldn’t recommend mediafire. More than once they wiped all of my files without ANY notification! That’s just unacceptable. I’m considering DA anyway. It’s never good to leave all your eggs in one basket. (Actually, you guys are free to post my freebies anywhere you want. I don’t mind.)
