If that's the statement(s) that were made, I could understand that. But, alas, it wasn't. Hence why I put my two cents in.

All I'm saying is when I made an account there a few years back and got out of micros for a while I came back and made a new gallery because I figured after a 2 year absence my old gallery was gone since my old username no longer worked. But much to my surprise it did and I was attacked and trashed and called a dumbass by a bunch of 30 year olds who think because they make pixelated people, that they have the right to be complete assholes. That's why I don't care much for MIB

And that's understandable. Some people have their moments over there, but that doesn't make the entire board bad. I understand your personal issues with the board over the issues you apparently had, it's sad that was done, and I wish I had known why it was done in the manner it was apparently done, because that is not what the board is about at all. But anyways, I'm getting off topic....Like I said, I only spoke up because I don't believe in labeling an entire place a shit hole based on the actions of a few.

I could understand people like Alex selling them, but honestly I dont think you or I or most others make stuff that is consistent enough to warrant a fee especially at $30 like you said you charged on Facebook. Maybe $5-10 each..

I love how the randy from MIB made an appearance. Made me lol.
But anyways, people pay for art like paintings and shit. If you draw every single part of the micro you made, you should be able to sell it. If people are willing to pay, then do the work. It's your 'art' so why does it matter if you want to make money off of it? That's like being criticized for selling a drawing you made for someone. I just don't really get why people wanna get so anal about it.

Maybe $5-10 each.. If they are willing to pay for it let them do so. You might get a few more requests if the price was lowered though.

No more requests, I've taken it down after discussing with the guys who posted the comments. It's about the integrity and such, and if I try again, it will be taken down again.

Just somethin' I wanna clarify with my replies. When i say "Fuck yeah I would accept money." I mean, if I could I totally would. I don't honestly believe I'm at the level where I could say "Pay me for this masterpiece because it's better than anything you can do."
Friends have asked me to make them micros, and I've done it for free and I know they're average. But if I were good enough, where what I created were brilliant pieces of digital art then hell yeah I'd say pay me.
If people say "I'll pay for that," then sure, why not? If you put time into it, sure. I'm not working off of a template anymore, my three recent micros are all from scratch, so I'd feel no shame in accepting money if someone offered.
And in response to my other reply, well, I think you know what I mean. The fact that dracine is from the exact same city as me and I've never met him is crazy though.
