Dealing With Art Thievery
Added 2020-07-17 19:31:46 +0000 UTCHey guys, wanted to ask what was better for you all.
One Drive and password protected Rar files, or a Telegram channel with password protected Rar files?
My content is still getting stolen, so i'm looking into methods to curb the thievery just a smidge, while not putting you all off with too many extra steps.
I'm always on telegram so that would be the most convenient for me, but if you have a better option that isn't too esoteric or obscure, i'll consider suggestions as well.
One thing's for sure, uploading content nakedly like this isn't working so well. Sad really. I don't earn much from this and i just want to have a good time with you all.
Ah well, let me know, i'd super appreciate it.

I think this is my likely next avenue of exploration man, thank you :3

2020-07-17 21:30:59 +0000 UTCOne of the things I know some people do is to send them in prepackaged, password protected zip/winrar files either via direct email or One Drive. That way, only those with the actual passwords could actually unlock them.

2020-07-17 20:11:29 +0000 UTCThanks Josiah, but to be honest, the consensus seems to be One Drive. Path of least resistance ^^;
