Version 7 Tutorial here:
Management Tutorial Here:

I was so surprised that there wasn't a full tutorial on Points, especially not found easily. So I took some time and put this together.

Time taken: About 2-3 Hours

I hope this is helpful!


Edit 1: I have gotten some suggestions to add a chunk about the Llama Trade. However until I have some time, to add it I would like to explain it here [removed]

Edit 2: Fixed a typo!

Edit 3: Because of the release of Version 7, (Tutorial for it here at the top of these comments) I will be updating this shortly with changes to accommodate V7.

Edit 4: This version now features information about the llama trade and pictures and information that needed to be changed for V7 are now updated!

Edit 5: Fixed minor typo as well as cut it down to a better size.

OMG!
Thank you so much for the DD!
=Iluvocnj2006 and =dhikssy Thank you so much for suggesting it!

And thank you ^ginkgografix for featuring it and your help!

Thank you everyone and I hope that this will be useful for all!

Thanks for all the support on my 1st DD

You didn't.
I'm just getting the feeling you're saying you can't be a successful artist without a subscription.

Never said that. I didn't have one for a very long time.

It gives great opportunities for others to see you more, and it certainly help but it isn't a necessity!

You must have points to donate, but if you collect them then yes

Taking into account the fact that the true purpose of the "Points" system has been a bit fuzzy to me lately, I will most certainly take a closer look at this tutorial for reference. Thank you for creating it!

First of all, congrats on the DD! ^_^ Your work is well appreciated 8D

Secondly, I'm sure this has been asked many times, but do you have to have Points on your account to donate them to another person? You can't just give them free Points out of generosity? X3

TimberClipse In reply to barkingmad13 [2010-05-19 01:07:16 +0000 UTC]

Yes you do...

If I have 20 points and donate 10, then I will only own 10 points

Very good tutorial.

However I'm annoyed by people asking with copy/paste messages for points.

It's like, if I had extra money to donate, the first thing I'd use it on is ASPCA. Not someones dA subscription pool. |:

The llama prade is actually a pretty good way of getting the points, it's slow going but it works, I just kinda do it when I'm bored, but hey I've collected over 100 point this month that way so it ain't all bad.

KIARAsART In reply to ??? [2010-05-18 16:58:28 +0000 UTC]

Aha, so there are llamas and even points now ....


And I thought DA is about art :3

The best part I read was:
You can "buy" a 3months subscription with points .... you can buy points by using your credit card

BOONJAGGA In reply to KIARAsART [2010-05-18 18:56:54 +0000 UTC]

I know, right p

It's like the only reason this is up here as a DD is for the points.

There wasn't a tutoral on this? I thought everyone knew about the points thing. But I'm glad there's finally a clear, full tutorial on this

TimberClipse In reply to FallenUmbrella [2010-05-18 21:16:10 +0000 UTC]

So did I, but I slowly realized from peoples requsts that they didn't. Then I went and searched points and got like NOTHING.

So I decided to make one, and boy am I happy

Thanks for reading it

Yeah, when dA had that page that told us what points are and how to get them, people still didn't know how to get them.

And you're welcome! Now those clueless deviants won't be so confused
