I have recently been advised that Creative Fabrica have decided to close down the Creative Fabrica Fans page side of their business with effect from 30th April this year so I have been looking for a new home for those that wish to nab my SVG cutting file designs.
After much deliberation I have chosen to go with Patreon. There are a number of reasons for this.
- Patreon is a well established subscription platform connecting artists, musicians, designers and other creative folk with their audience.
- In addition to the usual benefits of being a subscriber that you have been used to, Patreon offers improved search filters allowing you to find the content you want much MUCH faster. This is something that I know those that previously subscribed will find very useful.
- This move has also allowed me the opportunity to review ALL 90+ file sets – no mean feet! – and add DXF and EPS file formats to earlier collections along with revised READ ME documents that now include recommended materials and cutting sizes for each file plus I’ve been able to reduce file sizes in all cases to below 199MB per download so it won’t take forever to start using your file sets.
- The change has also meant that I can now set the price in British Pounds but with the added advantage that you can now choose to pay in one of twelve currencies (see FAQs below) via credit card or PayPal making it much easier to manage your subscription.
If you are already subscribed to my Creative Fabrica Fans page, please cancel your subscription before it is next due. If you forget to do this, don’t worry, it will automatically be stopped at the end of April.
If you would like to continue supporting me as an independent designer or would like to start receiving my SVG cut files and more, please visit my Patreon page via this link – https://www.patreon.com/GentlemanCrafterUK – or click the giant button below.
If you’ve any questions, please check out the FAQs below or leave me a comment.
Otherwise I look forward to seeing you over on Patreon!
