It appeals to the "ooh, shiny!" crowd. 90% of adopts are sold to people buying on impulse. The last 10% are sold because the buyer wants to have a piece from that specific artist, but doesn't feel like actually going through the effort of (and paying for) an actual commission.
It's easier than making a design from scratch. I see adopts as the equivalent of ordering takeout instead of cooking at home.
How much you wanna bet there's also some darkweb sites hosted on the servers and that's why it's always running like shit?
I actually like them, but not the shitty, mass produced base stuff. Those generally feel unoriginal and I rather buy unique art than something made on a base.
Periodic reminder that the Vivisector crew found Yak running Moldovan electronics retailers' testing sites on FA hardware yeeeears ago.
I hadn't heard that one before. Got a link I could read more about it?
That seems to be a case study on 'modern art'.
Ok I can sort of give this a pass, and I highly suggest reading the description as to what the winner got.
lmao
wait is this still about his commission prices, or are furries mad at miles for some new shit
Ha, you think furries could muster the self-awareness to realize $2,000 digital art is a ripoff? That's funny. No, he pissed off the woke furs on twitter for drawing a Confederate flag design on a dog's bikini top. I wish you were right.
Nope, you're thinking about someone else. This is why people are mad at Miles.
There's definitely people who are pissed at his prices too, I've seen folk on fur groups talk about it being a ripoff. It's kinda artists fault in the first place since so many people will underprice themselves to painfully low amounts just for a quick buck, to the point anyone trying to sell for actual industry prices looks unreasonable.
