After receiving a great deal of feedback, we're excited to announce an upgrade to the My Earnings quarterly check payment system! Instead of waiting until the end of a quarter for deviantART to process your check, you can now request a check whenever you'd like! For example, if you made some big sales after submitting a new Print, you can request a check to be mailed to you right away instead waiting until the quarter ends.

As long as you have at least $20 worth of earnings in your available balance, you can log in to your My Earnings page, click "Withdraw by Check," fill out your information and the amount you'd like to request, and then click "Submit." Please note that checks are issued in U.S. dollars. You should receive your check by mail in 4 to 6, weeks depending on your location. You can only request one check at a time, and checks must be cashed before requesting another check.

We hope you like this increased flexibility in how you get paid. Remember, you can get your earnings faster if you convert them to deviantART Points or Withdraw by PayPal. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our Help Desk.

:iconthesmallwonder: Some thoughts from Katie (thesmallwonder)

Spring has sprung and April showers have started raining down here at HQ.

Winter rain makes me want to crawl back into bed, get a hot cup of coco, and read a book all day. But there’s something different about April showers...

Maybe it’s because it’s less cold outside, or that the days are longer, but springtime rain makes me want to play in puddles.I want to go outside and smell the fresh air, and I just feel rejuvenated. Spring is a time for me to dust off old projects and start new ones. Forget New Years, April's when I get inspired!

:thumb292604413:I want to hear from you!
Do you play in the rain?
Does spring inspire you?
