What The Hell Is This Site?

Howdy, by now most of the people who visit this site are already familiar with who I am and why this site even exists but I figure this is a good place to cover everything.

For quite a while people had been asking how they could help support the channel financially. People asked about paypal and patreon, and while I have added those things I have done so very reluctantly and very rarely advertise them.

Why?

I just never felt comfortable with the idea of people giving me money for something that I was providing for free anyway. Don't get me wrong it's a very nice gesture and it does make me feel as though my work is appreciated, but, if you are going to help the channel financially then I wanted you to receive something tangible in return. So I spent some time coming up with different designs centred around colour palettes from various decades, beginning with the 80's since that's when I was born.

I spent a lot of time reviewing other youtuber merchandise to get an idea of what to provide I also polled people who watched the channel and contacted some viewers personally for opinions. All the designs and art are original and were either created by myself or the artists which are listed in the product description. So as well as supporting the channel you're also supporting independant artists since I pay artists for their designs and also credit them too.

I didn't want to rip anyone off so I have priced my products very aggressively by comparison to other youtubers but I have not cut corners on quality. I have managed to do this by keeping my overheads fairly low which is why the site was built by me using a free website builder on a free webdomain. My biggest expense is on manufacturing.

Hopefully you'll all enjoy these designs and feel comfortable buying them to support the channel, but if not feel free to tell me they suck and why. Criticism is always welcome here.

Thanks again.
