What have y'all done for your support messages?

[NanettesClouds]

So with the new Ink update there's an option to write a message for your supporters, I've got no idea what to do with mine so I figured I'd ask the community about what you're doing with it.

Feel free to share links to your stuff too, I have a hunch that the type of content people make might influence what their support message looks like.

This is mine

"Hello all! Firstly, thank you for stopping by and supporting me! I am starting up as a writer again after an extended period of time, because got the best of me for a while XD

I am looking to grow as a writer and eventually become published. I don't know if I'll ever be popular but honestly, I'm happy to be back to doing what I love and I hope I can spread support along the way!"

I really had no idea what to write so I just went with my feelings

Edit (finally made it back home):

Hi everyone,

I guess I should write something here so it doesn't sound super generic or appear blank.

Um, I just really want to tell my stories and make people smile with my work even with my bleak personality. I don't want to say give me your money, but rather if you want to support me (or any creator for that matter) please feel free to do so. The ink program is designed for people who don't have the income to give out actual cash to still support their favorite content creators, and it's really easy to do (if the service is actually working in your area...). So if you got the time I encourage you to watch a couple crappy ads and throw some ink at your favorite creators to give us some support.

While I have the ambition to continue making Ivolice and JODDAS VAPD (maybe my third series down the long, long road) I wouldn't mind the lil extra support, but I don't wish to force it on ya.

Anyways thanks for reading this... wherever it shows up.

Mine isn't super refined yet, but I just threw something in to get it set up xD It's:

"Thank you so much for offering your support! While my primary goal in drawing TreasureHUNT!! isn't to turn a profit, the creation of comics does consume a very real amount of time and resources. With that in mind, every drop of ink, no matter how big or small, puts a smile on my face and helps to support my creations!

Fun Fact: I've been lining this comic traditionally with a dip pen and ink, so every drop donated helps to power my pen!"

May refine it later, but I like it as is for now~

[NanettesClouds]

I really like how you added a fun fact! I think giving users a bit of bonus content/information for visiting the support page makes a lottt of sense.

[raekitano]

I wanted something witty. But I'm not witty.
I wanted something funny. But I'm not all that funny.
Here's what I came up with.
A serious message. Because I'm a serious person.

Thank you so much for supporting me.
Since I started writing in 2007, I've been working hard to create great stories.
I've learned a lot over the years and believe I still have much more to learn.
It's the support from readers, through subscription, likes, comments and ink, that makes me want to keep writing great stories.

[punkarsenic]

i didnt even know this was an option ppl were being given? where do i see this?

[beta1042]

Cool thanks for bringing this to my attention...

um my support message is this:
"OMG are you going to help me buy a fancy oven?!?!?! <3 <3 <3 THANK YOU!"

Everyone who reads my comic knows I want to buy a super fancy hella expensive oven so.... haha

[KoreanTacos]

Go to your dashboard on desktop, and hit the support tab, there should be a note option in the center.

[punkarsenic]

OH wow i see this! ty for letting me know!

im liking all these little changes tapas is making rn

[punkarsenic]

this is what im going with at the mo:

Every drop of ink helps keep this comic going! As a full-time student my comics are a product of love, and your support helps me make time to continue making comics you love.

[DiegoPalacios]

I took the comedic route for my message. Thought it would be fitting for my current comic :

"By supporting Rocky the rock, you are encouraging a positive representation of inanimate rocks in media."

"every drop of ink is a drop of happiness and hope for our inorganic brothers."

Rock lives matter!

Just some generic (?) one with some rambling :

Hello everyone, I'm Silver Raven, a writer, an artist, and a bird.

I'm pretty much still lacking in many aspect regarding my arts and stories, but I'll try my hardest to get the best of it out so you can enjoy it and maybe in the way, you can take a lessons from my works and characters. (Er, I'll try to not make too much depressing stuff... but no promise. XD )

And what's the best way to help me sending off my creations to the world to see?

It is by supporting me with ink or Ko-Fi.

(This is the link : https://ko-fi.com/silverraven )

You can take part in helping me to get the necessities I need to draw because I'm obviously lacking in funds for it, thought I may never be able to pay back your kindness except for continuing to create my arts and stories.

Thank you for all of you who supported me. You just made a small bird really hapy.
(ﾉ≧◇≦)ﾉ

(And I just got my first supporting message wa~~~ so happy though I feel awkward of what to answer next time. ^^;
Did you guys only say thank you?)

*edited because I added a Ko-Fi link

[KoreanTacos]

I didn't even know you could respond to them.

[silverraven0]

Yup, it made it all become even better (plus awkward, maybe?) for everyone.

But I'm loving it!

[TheThoughtfulBoxful]

Mine's short n' sweet:

"Hi there! Thank you for reading and supporting my comic! While GREENLEAF is currently a passion project, the time, energy and effort put into stays the same. Every drop of ink you give goes right back into making it, and is dearly appreciated by me."

And then I plugged my Ko-fi page because I have one now.

[silverraven0]

Wait, I don't know you can put link?

[TheThoughtfulBoxful]

Yeah, you just copy/paste it in with the rest of your message. It won't be an active link though...

[silverraven0]

Oh, okay, better than nothing. XD

[MariMontoya]

mines kinda cheesy...but I didn't know what else to say. But I think this is a really nice feature that tapas added and makes tipping even more personalized for authors/artists and readers.

Hi, Y'all! my name is Mari Montoya. Thank you all so much for checking out and supporting my works. With your support, I will continue to create stories that will take you to other worlds, give you a good dosage of tears, love, and laughter, and an adventure or two <3
