VTuber friends!! When you’re looking for artwork to use for your schedule, what do you look for? What search terms do you use? I’m looking for things to bookmark rn but nothing is speaking to me yet so I’m trying to refine my search!! 🔍🐛

So I got curious about Vgen: What happens when your client just "lies" about the usage of the art they paid you for? Surely there must've been incidents about this. But like, how do you deal with the aftermath if they use it for streaming thinking it was part of what-

Getting little money IS still monetary gain though. Even if it doesn’t make up for the money you put in, that’s not what monetary gain means. Yes, some artists do charge absurd prices for content (not commercial) licensing. That doesn’t mean you should lie about your usage.

Thank you for all the love and support! The site will be called ARTELIER! Some clarifications about ARTELIER: 1. 50/50 fee means the buyer and the artist split the fee instead of one shouldering it all. The fee will be 5% - 8%, we will try out best to keep it at 5% as profits are not our goal but each transaction needs to break even. 2. This is not a diss at Vgen. Vgen is still a wonderful home to many, but it failed to address our concerns, and after years of putting trust into them over various issues, we have decided to finally try our own platform. This was not an easy decision. It takes a lot of investment, time, and care to make a commission site, let alone a good one. We understand Vgen isnt perfect and we can't be either, but this will hopefully be useful to those looking for another home <3 3. We will be answering as many comments and questions as we can! We didn't expect this to be so popular, so please bear with us. Everything is human vetted at JA and responded with careful consideration. 4. For ease of organization, if you have any suggestions or want to be added to the Beta Artist application list, please join our Discord! discord.gg/b5j9RywqHx
WE ARE MAKING A VGEN ALTERNATIVE SITE! After Vgen support gave us a lukewarm, unsatisfactory answer in addressing the broker issue, refund issue, and our verification status issue, our coders have decided to make a vgen alternative site. - real humans will vett every artist - it will be as close to mihuashi's terms as possible without stealing - fees will be incredibly low and taken 50/50 from the artist and customer like mihuashi - search by price, type, duration - extremely customizable and detailed profiles #Jiangatelier #Vgen

We are not mad at the broker tag itself, but what the stigma around it has become. We want nothing to do with it, and like others that have successfully been labeled studios for performing the same activity, we hope so too.

Also if your complaint is the stigma, that isn’t VGen’s fault at the end of the day, that’s the fault of bad brokers and others in the space.

I am confused because doesn’t relate to anything I have said…? You have said you don’t do any brokerage services on VGen and that’s part of why you’re “wrongfully labeled” but all I’m doing is pointing out that isn’t the truth?

I genuinely distrust people who knowingly commission brokers.. 🫪

One of the artists I commissioned for a Halloween art I’m now realizing might be related to J**HUB (I did not know the red flags at that point) and I’m going to post it bc I paid for it but it feels SO bad ;;

1. We had to remove all our external services from VGEN per their terms. 2. The shop items are models we help resell, a lot of them are old customers of ours that need to step away from vtubing 3. Because we are not verified anymore and had our verification removed due to an angry customer reporting our Mihuashi services, VGEN will not let us add any new services to our page. We have had new artist join the atelier, and they cannot have their services added to VGEN because we ran out of "Service slots." Each folder is named after the artist who makes it.

Two would make you a broker on VGen still. Resellers fall under brokerage.

After Muncha confirmed they won't be unlabelling us as brokers, we just pray something will change. JA needs to clarify we are actually wrongfully marked as brokers. We do not mistreat or underpay our artists. They set their own prices and choose to enter an official business contract with us as a registered business entity with EIN and VAT. They set their own prices and choose to go through us because they cannot access overseas customers easily on their own. Our goal is to help them access more clients, build their portfolio, and show clients that is is possible to buy a high quality assets without breaking the bank! But because our artists are contracted as subcontractors and not employees, Vgen refuses to mark us a a studio. #Vgen #jiangatelier #studio

thank you. the thing is, we cannot employ employees because we do not provide medical benefits or w-2 forms. The issue is, we know other studios labelled as studios do not do this either.

Those studios can all be a group of self employed artists, as long as there is no main entity employing them. You have a main entity doing subcontracts which makes you a broker. If they DO have a main entity doing subcontracts, they are improperly labeled and should be a broker.

not sure what this is all about but i tried to commission jiang atelier off of Vgen once for a background not realizing it wasn't a singular artist.. They added me to a discord full of artists & assigned me a translator and an artist who refused to communicate with me for days

Please do explain what the difference would be to make them a studio then, because they have in house long-term employed artists. Not subcontracted ones. Per the screenshot they’re a studio

Here have some more

They have BOTH. Because they have both, they have to be labeled as a broker as they are an organization (a studio) that ALSO hires from outside their team. They have admitted in their own tweets they subcontract.

We heard back from them, and they said they wont be changing it unless we change our website and contract. We offer BOTH inhouse and external services because we believe that ANYONE should be able to find the perfect artist, even if they dont choose our own artists.

So do you or do you not offer external services through VGen? Are the things you have in your shop (not commissions tab, the shop tab) made by those in house artists? I don’t see some of the credited artists’ names on your website or on your VGen.

Yeah, to my understanding because all artists are in-house it would be a studio account, not a broker.

So 1. That’s not what brokers do by definition, that’s what the bad brokers do that have given the title a bad rep. Broker is a neutral title. 2. Per the screenshots from them, they subcontract their work which falls under brokerage per your screenshot. They are a broker.
