  1. Just received a message from #society6 that my account will be removed, due to "strategic changes" to their marketplace. While I didn't sell a ton of work, I did have steady payments coming in. I'm not crushed, but disappointed for sure. :ablobsad:

  2. #SocietySix #Society6 drops artists that do not generate enough profit — for them!

    i could see this coming as they started charging artists fees for shipping their own products, then fees and restrictions to the amount of art that could be posted, etc…

    i won't miss them…

    they're not adhering to the March 18 deadline for account access… 🤷🏽 & no GDPR compliance?

  3. I only ever sold like two things on Society6 (Redbubble has always been better for me) but I feel bad for the #artists who did have more luck there because wow @ this email I received today. They're straight-up removing #artist shops.

    tl;dr don't support #Society6

  4. I wonder if I should get back to #painting... Part of me wants it, another part of me finds it a waste of time. There's no market left for it anymore after the total #enshittification of #Instagram, #Society6, #RedBubble. Yes, I enjoy painting, but I enjoy it more when I can share it with people who can actually see the posts. #PixelFed had been a good outlet, and I love it, but with only 20k active users it's just not enough momentum.

  5. It arrived 🤗🤗 and it looks great and the inside is really soft 😊

    (the phone case arrived today as well, but it's not where I am at the moment)

  6. The new test #prints I ordered from #Inprnt arrived super fast! 🎉

    And just like last time they're just tooo good! ✨

    #Redbubbe or #Society6 don't come even close to it +__+ My photos don't do the vibrant colours and deep blacks justice at all, they're so amazing! I can't get over it ^__^

    Get some here:

  7. A few favorite watercolors that I've painted. Artwork available in my #society6 shop thru 11/30. At that time, my shop closes and I'll be considering other printing companies.

    The quality is very nice and there are many gift items to choose from. ➡️ society6.com/elizabethkennenwa

  8. So, I'll likely do a longer write up on this, but after a few years of largely not trying to sell #art due to not completing a lot of works or otherwise not tending to things, I had intended to start up the old lines, and I fine them either broken (#RedBubble), shut down (#DeviantArt Prints) or doing just squirt-of-piss dumb cash grabs (all of the above, plus #Society6).

    Everyone wants art, very few want to make actual artists lives remotely worth the effort.

    Maybe #etsy?

  9. SOCIETY6 NEWS!

    Those of you selling on Society6 there are big changes afoot. And they will cost you money.
    Click the description added / extra info thingie included with my puppy pic to see what's what. The info doesn't fit on this part of this post. 🙄

    And to see the puppy pic better (When Puppies Get confused) … go to my REAL website (Not Society6) here:

  10. The #enshittification of #Society6 is here, as they now require #artists to pay to upload #art on their site in any meaningful manner.

    Interestingly, they had a lapse in software logic that I spotted, that could cost them $millions during the Black Friday sale season. I pondered if I should tell them and ask them to fix it, or punish them with my silence. I pondered hard. But then I realized that artists won't get paid, and customers won't get their #Christmas gifts. So I emailed them about it.

  11. Both #Society6 and #RedBubble seem to be producing their stuff in the Netherlands for #Europe which isnt't ideal either for the #UK. I did not have to pay #customs which is nice but it took about two weeks for the stuff to arrive.

    I think I will give #Inprnt another go, because their quality is next-level amazing and I'll see if you still need to pay #customs (they're producing in the #US).

  12. #Society6 was still kinda worse: The #giclee #artprint I ordered was horrible unsharp (not sure how they even did that, you could see that the edges were blurry on the sides but sharp at the top and buttom) and a poster was very #glossy and #desaturated. So I'm probably not gonna use them even though the #CustomerService was amazingly fast and promised to refund me the money for the bad print.

  13. Maybe this is interesting for you #art friends looking for a #PrintOnDemand #service:

    I've been testing out #Society6 recently after having made better but still not good experiences with #RedBubble than in the past (mostly concerning their #print #quality, I ordered a #poster and it wasn't bad, not as horrible as the #stickers I ordered years ago, but nothing to write home about either).
