I've been looking into it and, well, the main reason why I don't have commissions open very often is:
1. I have to sit at my desk, and with my family always barging in, it's difficult to draw NSFW commissions with them all up in my business.
2. My desk and chair forces me to sit in the same position for hours at a time, it's painful on my back, neck, and shoulders.
3. Being unable to go anywhere, I get bored really easily and find that it's difficult to relax and focus when I'm in an environment I can't enjoy.
4. I never get to go anywhere anyway, why do I need money lol
5. My laptop and tablet are huge, I can't take them anywhere without carrying a large satchel around with me and it gets painful to carry around on top of other items that I need like my wallet, phone, and car keys.
6. I need a new setting, I need to get outside, and in order to do that, I have to leave everything behind and I can't do much of anything elsewhere.

So, I went through a few pages and found this thing called Gofundme, which allows others to send donations ranging from $5-500 or whatever can be spared. I've even seen some users use it as their means of payment for commissions and I thought it was a really great way of getting payments and everything done.

I've never used facebook before, it seems like more of a hassle than anything, so I had to make a facebook page just to use this thing so people wouldn't think I was, like, going to steal the money or whatever. I don't know what the point of it was but I did it and such.

So I figure what the hell - this is something I really need, and I think it could better me as an artist and help me with my medical problems and the like that I have that make arting, my only passion, painful for me to do. I know I've uploaded a lot recently, but that is taking its toll on me; my eyes are starting to strain, my shoulders and my back ache. I have other places I can go to sit, but it hurts my back all the more, or strains my arms to use my bed, sofa, or any other area because of having both tablet and laptop together.

Thanks to anyone who's reading this, and thank you all the more for those of you who donate, and more so who commission me.

I've seen a few horror stories from Cintaq's side, but most of the reviews I read sound pretty much the same as everyone else's that gets paid to do good reviews. The surface Pro 3 hasn't been released yet anyway, the i7 is the processor I want, and if I could really afford the 512gb HD, I would, but, it has a USB port on it so I can always just use my external hard drive for whatever I need, too.
