Hi everyone 👋 I’m new here. I’m a developer who’s been hanging around commission spaces for a while, and I noticed the same problems come up again and again in DMs:

unclear scope

approvals buried in chat

revision requests changing over time

“who confirmed what” disagreements

So I turned my notes into a small free Commission Safety Kit (SFW):

  • Brief template (what to ask before starting)

  • Revision policy checklist

  • Milestone / acceptance checklist

Copy-paste ToS line (use it right away):

Work is approved per milestone (sketch / line / color / final). One minor revision per stage. Exportable record available on request.

Quick question for creators & clients here: Do you prefer approvals… A) only once at the end B) after each stage (sketch/line/color) → Comment A or B (or just KIT) and I’ll reply with a ready-to-paste version that fits your workflow.

Optional tool version (if you want an exportable logbook): Time-Shards 🔗 https://time-shards.skreeb.io/

Thanks! I’m here to learn how people actually handle commissions, so feel free to tell me what part of the process causes the most friction for you.

Update: if you comment A/B or KIT, I’ll reply with a ToS line tailored to your stage list + revision count.
