That is perfect ... well at least to me :3


Cool,
I noticed yesterday that I didn't render the sound, I always switch it off while working and never turned it on.
I will be able to render new files with sound later today.

I've notice that you haven't got a rewards section yet. This is still really important.

I'm not sure if I got my thoughts across from you but this is a pictorial quick sketch of what it could look like.

Image

Might No. 9 did both banner and grid:
Grid: https://s3.amazonaws.com/ksr/assets/000/902/891/38305c8e16cc1e466f9d5db2d0315c79_large.jpg?1378729279
Banner: https://s3.amazonaws.com/ksr/assets/000/902/890/7d477ffa6074fb5b7b93a1c1225a86f6_large.jpg?1378729266

So ... yeah my picture is bad (it also highlights the pixelated lines I get any size below 12). Anyway there are two options. You either have level by level rewards picture OR you have a grid system.

Both will need to show the DVDs, Postcards, About Box, Stickers, T-shirts, USB etc etc. At least show a few of these. Your no. 1 comment will be "What does the rewards look like?"

But if you really think you can get people interested without it, then okay.

Aside from that, I really hope everything goes great. Obviously.

Good luck. :)

I tried to make such a section, but I failed... So I just added it in text.

Ah. No Problem.

I don't have a credit card but I can give you money through Paypal, which regardless of the success, you can keep. :)

Though there is one problem. You have told the 25 euros people that that is enough for voting but also said the it is only 30 euros or more can vote. So which is it?

Pledge €25 or more
For 25 euros, you will get a postcard, a sheet of awesome stickers with the Kiki logo to adorn your laptop or graphics tablet and, of course, fame by being listed in the Krita 2.9 about box! You will also be eligible to vote for the feature you like most after we get funded!

Once the kickstarter is funded, we will open a poll for these 24 features and everyone who donated 30 euros or more will get to vote!

I've checked but the main page has still not changed. To be fair, you have indeed cleared it up on the updates but I was sure you could change the description ...

Gentlemen, i found a guide made by the author of this kickstarter succesfull campaing:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/81 ... t-the-hero

It may prove useful for the krita team, since is about the "journey of being funded" more than game development, providing detailed information of the whole process (including what worked and what didn't).

Has there been any thought to stretch goals between 15,000 and 75,000. Could anything extra happen if the community raises an extra 5,000, 10,000, or more? Features being done faster, a longer contract (an extra month or two) and more features that could carry over to 3.0? Maybe for an extra 5,000, there could be a poll where people could pick a couple of extra features out of 5-6?

It is looking good for the 15,000, but in-between stretch goals will get people excited and make further contributions more of an incentive. The 75,000 is such a far off goal currently. Once 15,000 is reached, people are going to have little incentive to bump their contribution since there is such a gap.

Adding in-between stretch goals like this will have the biggest impact ONLY after the 15,000 is reached.

Well, there's the 35k goal for adding Sven to the full-time team. But I do agree that having something around 20, 25k would make for a good story. I'm wondering what, though!
