So, apparently all the PayPal buttons I've been using-- including my customized Tip Jar icon-- have been taking people to login pages rather than payment pages.  I made the buttons and deposited the html code into WordPad for easy access.  (sometimes.  The Tip Jar I'm using for my "Frozen" project is working right.  But the SAME code from the SAME WordPad isn't working on my Free Sketch Day post.  wtf?)

Based on what FIXES this problem, the fact that PayPal is linking to my "secure merchant ID" instead of my email address is what's causing the problem.  If I change the option to link to my email address, the link goes where it's supposed to.

I can't, however, figure out how to make that the default option.  So it looks like I may have to log into PayPal and fix it every time I post it.  Grrr. 

I'll have to start testing it every time I post it, just to make sure.  The icon on my Character Art Days post is fixed; going to fix the one from Free Sketch Day too just in case.

ETA:  Okay, I think, MAYBE, that I've fixed it.  

Character Art Jam

moon_fox is holding a Character Art Jam at her LJ through Friday!  Pencil sketches are free; tips of $5 or more will fund colorization.

Updates for Thursday

Where has the week gone?  It just sort of melts away.  

I have a couple of updates and reminders to post.

First, I've finished the flat colors for "Frozen"-- I still have to add varying hues, light and shadow, etc. I thought I'd post a cropped section of the image.   You can see where I powdered snow over the wings and body, which will be better blended to the rest of the snow when other colors are added.  It will still have that twilit look, but with a touch of color and a fading angelic glow.  It's currently standing at exactly half funded-- $20.  Another $20 will fully fund it so that the full sized completed image will be released to the public.  Upon completion, any contributors will receive a small print and the full sized color image in an email whether the project is fully funded or not.  It will also be available on ImageKind as a print either way.  

As always, click thumbnail for enlargement.  (Remember, this is just a detail crop, not the whole image)


If you would like to contribute to this project, click the Tip Jar icon.

Also!  I am still open for Discounted Character Portrait Days!  Follow the link to the main page to put in your requests.  Had a bit of a hiccup with the PayPal link, but it's all fixed now.
