@outerdog.bsky.social I was considering making a small matchmaking website for artists to get commission work from indie developers / people wanting personal assets (ex: the idea of artists being commissioned for @rpg.actor sprites) do you have ideas for making the UX be "pro-artist"/not suck? 1/2

cc: @wafrn.net artists, @goose.art, probably a lot of people I'm forgetting note: I'm using the term "matchmaking" loosely to mean "find cool artists and give them money"

Yess!! This is something we really want to see happen. Keep having these visions of little pixelart stalls to explore with actual sprite examples (plus the artist themself). Something like a virtual artist-alley? Though, always doubting what the best payment / commission platform provider is.

a digital artist alley would be really cute, it would also fit with an idea I had of visually showing how many commissions an artist can take on (like pixel art of items that get removed off the table, and maybe give the buyer's @rpg.actor's sprite an item to represent the commission? receipt?)

Interesting... There's probably easier (less-visual) receipt options. But, really love the idea of sprite examples on display.
