Don't do this to artists. Each have their own style. You commission whoever's style you prefer. If you don't like a style, it doesn't mean it's inferior, just that you don't like it. Leave other people to their own judgment.

@JoshuaTheFox @drachenmagier Most artists that I've seen have terms that prohibit commercial use without a commercial usage license, so this can be seen as an extention of that. Also note that copyright generally remains with the artist, unless explicitly arranged otherwise.

Start with power unplugged, move power switch to ON position, and insert your SD card. Then hold E and F buttons and plug the power in. I just have the game card in, and that shows up blank until it's unlocked, so this is expected.

The good news is the socket works. The bad news is it's about 1mm too wide, and the screen doesn't slot back in. I guess I'm going to trim a little bit off the socket. It's a super tight fit, butting right up against two components. Probably have to leave the cover off.
