Hi SG,

I'm excited to be sharing our Patreon with everyone today! If you're unaware of Patreon, it's a platform for users ("Patrons") to support and subscribe to their favorite content creators and services. Our Patreon is arranged into three reward tiers, and it offers a number of fun rewards without giving anyone an unfair advantage towards entering or winning giveaways. The reward tiers are as follows:

  1. Outdoor Cat ($3/mo)

    • Advertising Removed
    • Analytics Removed
    • Donator Tag
  2. House Cat ($7/mo)

    • Advertising Removed
    • Analytics Removed
    • Donator Tag
    • Customize Profile Colors
    • Customize Profile Avatar Border
    • Choose One of 25 GIFs for Your Winners
  3. Space Cat ($15/mo)

    • Advertising Removed
    • Analytics Removed
    • Donator Tag
    • Customize Profile Colors
    • Customize Profile Avatar Border
    • Choose One of 100 GIFs for Your Winners

Our Patreon covers all of the specifics, including further details about the rewards and how they can be redeemed after subscribing.

https://www.patreon.com/steamgifts

You'll also notice the Patreon button added to the account page of our site. This is where you can redeem your rewards as explained above.

A big thanks to everyone, regardless of whether or not you decide to subscribe. It's been a lot of fun working on SteamGifts over the years. I hope to see the community continue to grow, and I'll keep doing my best to release new features and improvements for the years to come. Thanks!

Perhaps moderators should receive a small portion? Something to incentivize the position. Alternatively, you could gift them games from their wishlist.

hope this isn't considered necroing, sorry if yes.

bump for this, especially the wishlist one.

i agree with others that choosing your own custom win gifs would be awesome
but i also recognise that then gifs would need to be approved and that would be a lot of work,
but if you did implement this i'd definitely sign up for a month so i could send specific
gifs based on where the giveaway was in my event

TLDR: increase flexibility for donators/backers
I think those who can/should donate to support this site should be allowed to decide exactly how much and how often (one time, monthly, yearly) they pay money. Personally i like the approach of https://opencollective.com.

It would be nice if there were a seperated group for patrons to chose when creating a giveaway.

this is a request and bump, all together.

was checking Patreon page and for the first time i noticed

CG is creating SteamGifts

you said "creating".

checking tiers, first one looks like a "little bundle" per month, here. what i'll miss very much from that bundle, tho, is "Choose One of 25 GIFs for Your Winners". what if we get to chose from 5 GIFs as a plus for first tier?

edit: i really like my "idea" :D + i just noticed it, tiers were crystal clearly written up here

Last Patreon Message was one year ago...
Would love to see some messages like it was in the beginning.
Or is there nothing in the background that is worth to talk about?

maybe they can talk about how much they win with that patreon and how much cost this web :)

then we can see how much money they win!!

Hi CG! Would it be an idea to add a $1 tier? For those that want to support but just don't have that much to spend each month.
Another suggestion, can a simple role be added for Patreons? It would be nice to see which users are Patrons at a given time, without them needing to show a star next to their name.

If this were to be implemented, I would want an option to opt out so my name didn't appear on the list, or set the list to where you have to opt in to be included (like how the star is now.)

same here.

but 1 dollar tier is something very neat, imo.
...give it away, cg :P

also, somewhat related: one of the best little things are Spacecats you can choose. i still remember to have seen one, and it was something... special (spacecat is a special moment, indeed). and also a "very light" way to show the winner you're a patreon...
(+ lower tiers should have at least one)

If it's a cat, then okay :P keep them doggo's out! :P
(I wonder what CG earns from advertising each month per user though.. if that's $2, a $1 tier might not be that good of an idea :P)

You can always only pledge a dollar! Doesn't come with added 'perks' then though, but still it's possible to pledge just a dollar!

If I remember correctly, you can set custom pledges on patreon. You wouldn't get the benefits but if we're being honest, there's not many anyways, so... so yeah, that option does exist!

Hey, maybe I'm just a weirdo, I would like if I could reenable the ads, I don't mind them on this site, occasionally they are even useful. Maybe it even helps you out with a few cents xd
