For those who don't subscribe the email in full: Dear ShareCG Members, It is with much regret that we are ending our revenue sharing system. The payouts you will receive for December will be the last that ShareCG gives out. We are ending the revenue sharing system for a few reasons. First, it encouraged a lot of mediocre, copyright, and spam material to be posted to our site. We want ShareCG to be a community that represents high quality content, and revenue sharing brought out the worst, not the best, in our community. Second, it became uneconomical. We would pay thousands of dollars to our users, but most individual users would not make that much. We are still exploring alternate ways to deal with these problems and begin revenue sharing again. We are still committed to that ideal. For the time being, however, we are disabling revenue sharing until we come up with a better system. We are now concentrating on making the website more useful for our users in other ways. We will integrate a jobs section, where you can use the talent you have shown on the site to find work. We will also introduce a flash enabled and embeddable portfolio, which will allow you to show off the work you have posted to ShareCG to employers and peers. Finally, we will be restructuring the layout of the site to make it easier for you to share feedback with your expert peers, and help you become a better artist. I think that we have a great site with a lot of excellent material and committed users. I hope our community of over 20,000 contributions continues to grow. Thank You, The ShareCG Team Will they pay out to those that haven't made the $20 min I wonder?
