I am unsure whether this is the right board for this topic. Let me know if I am wrong!While doing research for art commissions, I stumbled across a service called
Artistree which primary focuses on "fair" commission payments (artists keep 100% of payments - I know what you're thinking), but also supports a ton of other things commonly used in such commissions (request forms, dashboard, queues, communication, receipt logs, etc). Also, they claim that with every order, a tree is planted.
I have yet to hear anything negative about it and it looks pretty decent thus far. Nonetheless, it is still a new service, so there are a couple drawbacks when it comes to missing features and options. Fortunately, they make frequent updates to cover these holes up. For instance, last time I checked a while back they did not support the EUR format and now they do.

As I am planning to open art commissions sometime in the long run, I considered giving it a try just to see how things turn out. My only concern is how much I can technically trust it, because, then again, it is fairly new and I have only heard positive comments, which is not necessarily what I am looking for. Moreover, there is a not a vast variety of people analysing nor rating it in pure honesty, therefore it appears more shady per se. I reckoned discussing it here would enlighten me and others interested in some way!
> So, what do you guys think about it? Have you heard of it before or even used it by any chance? If so, would you recommend it? Or would you pose any warnings instead?Note: I am aware that certain formats of commissions as such are not regarded as "professional", but let's just focus on this kind of format for this occasion.

Also, I suggest you skim through their website for further info. There is a lot to uncover! I prefer to avoid translating words falsely, so I am keeping this brief. :]
