meeksI'm considering a couple of new perks for next month, and I'd like to know what you think.
One was inspired byysabetwordsmith's post, and is for those of you who help with promotion: Some new commenters mention whose link they followed to find me, and I would like to start counting these to reward people for sending traffic my way. I am thinking something like "x number of referrals in a month can earn a free icon or equivalent amount of work on a sketch of your choice." Would something like that appeal to you? How many new participants/month seems fair?
The other is a variation on the "pay to vote" payment model described byhaikujaguar. I already do specific revisions in exchange for tips, but I am thinking that each tip could also count as a vote, so that the sketch that has received the most tips gets another round of work...similar to my current perk for linkbacks. This is something I already track, so it wouldn't be difficult to implement using either the number of individual contributors, or the actual dollar amounts. The latter seems a bit less democratic, since it favours those who are most willing/able to spend money, but I do have other perks for non-cash support methods. What do you think?
