At least with donation currency, you don't have to worry about $USD temporarily. At least long enough for donations to get rolling in so you could switch to $USD. And even so, pay in commissions, not hourly rate else you'll get pixelists who slack and claim they've worked X amount of hours on a piece. I do non-tool pixeling and I can get a piece of work done in a day. A more complex one within a week (talking about item-wise, that is, such as shirts, pants, etc.).

Runes aren't money. We've TRIED paying pixelists in runes. It doesn't retain them. That's why we'd rather pay real money -- it actually works.

Maybe we need to bribe artists with expensive Coffee and giving them cool butt tasks they are highly interested in doing for the site.

We'd be happy to pay both real money AND runes, and in fact we probably would anyway.

Another suggestion I would add would be ALWAYS make a monthly announcement whether you have donation items or not.
Whether it is to announce the arrival, or create some role-play reason as to their delay. The shipment was robbed and the [guards of Trisphee, whatever they are, military, etc.] are on their way to retrieve the items. The shipment vehicle broke down. Possibilities are endless. That way the members of Trisphee doesn't feel like they're being ignored and they're in the "know" of what's going on without you guys needing to point blame on whoever is actually delaying the release. And if there's a chance at no donations for that month, roleplay that the shipment was stolen and unfortunately wasn't able to be retrieved. I dunno, is an idea I had for my place so figured maybe you guys could make it useful too. My DeviantART I get distracted easily, Private Message me for faster responses. | ||||

Lololololol, yeah, he doesn't touch announcements with a 30 foot pole unless he's just grabbing formatting for me.

If you get a new helper, be sure to chain them to the Trisphee dungeon so they cannot get away like the previous helpers.

Formatting is a way of life, for some.
I like to think of myself as a reasonably good writer, but when it comes down to it, I'm terrible at deciding what to say, so I usually leave things like announcements and stories and rp ideas to other people. That said, always announcing something each month is a very good idea. Thank you. Since it seems I didn't actually reply before, I would like to address the idea of shutting down Trisphee for a relaunch: That idea is death. Even if I have trisphee entirely rewritten from the ground up (not an impossibility), I will absolutely not shut down the site for any amount of time more than 24 hours, mostly because of reasons mentioned by Obsidian and Coda. And shutting down for 24 hours would only be if I couldn't figure out how to do a 'relaunch' instantly--which is entirely possible to do, and not really that hard at all. | ||||

If I didn't have a full-time job, and were a bit more confident in my abilities as a pixel artist (and thus had more to show on my art pages), I'd more than happily assist with making things for the site. Maybe I should start practicing again...

Jumping in here after a while to say that, as unfortunate as it is, I had to step back. Life got too real, with money and rent and school. Then my laptop and ps3 and a crap ton of money got stolen when someone broke into my apartment over st patricks day, so I can't even do my own personal art anymore. I'd like to come back and help if I could, but right now I can't. I have to use my friends computer to do my homework as it is. I'm sad that it had to come down to what it did, and I'm also sad that I haven't been active.
Honestly I'd consider coming back if the site picked up, or if me coming back would help the site pick up, and if my friend is willing to let me install art software onto her computer. But that's entirely up to the mods. | ||||

Sorry to hear about the theft and I hope you'll be able to return! But I do agree, Trisphee needs to pick back up. And it doesn't help that there's no monthly announcements. >-> Makes users feel like the site is unattended, but in the previous replies above, it sounds like there's going to be some improvements, so fingers crossed! I'm almost excited for next month to see something -- anything! Whether it be new donation items or some form of delay post.
