Today we're announcing the launch of our presence on Patreon, which you can find all the details of on our new page: https://www.patreon.com/lcpdfr
 
I know that we're very late to the party when it comes to things like Patreon, so much so that in almost ten years of operating this site we've never actually had a donations or subscriptions service on offer except for a humble, and very much overlooked, PayPal link.  I suppose it's one of those things that we've thought about from time to time but perhaps we've just never quite wanted to pull the trigger on.
 
As noble or whatever as this might seem, though, I think it has also had a couple of unintended consequences.  Not only have we often kept our cards a little too close to our chests, I think that as the community has grown and grown we've lost a certain sense of intimacy that was synonymous with the earlier days of our work for GTA IV.
 
With that being said, our commitment to keeping our work free and available to all is as steadfast as ever.  While we're incredibly grateful to the handful of people who've donated to us over the years for nothing but a little image on their posts in return, we're obviously acutely aware of the much larger chunk of people who likely don't even know that we have a donations link.
 
I think that by moving into the 21st century with this, we'll be able to provide a much better service for those who wish to support our work, and more importantly provide far greater recognition and rewards to those who do.
