![]() Personally I will be happy if I can just break even. I also believe that it will be better if there is some way for Creator Pro subscribers to recoup their subscription. I agree that it is a bit of a weird system and thus I do not subscribe to Creator Pro. If people don’t want the features or do not want to pay for them then they do not have to and can still enjoy and be part of the totally free standard Facer community.įor me, I think this was a great positive innovation for the community. If one wants access to the full feature set then one can get it. No-one is forced to subscribe to Creator Pro. Which is better, the old system, with no ability to create faces with premium features or the new, where people are free to choose to pay for access to those features and to share or not share the result as they want? The alternative would be to say, you can pay to access premium features, create feature rich faces for yourself but no, you can not share them. Having that choice, to share or not to share, is not a negative. ![]() If they want to share them, fair enough, but there is neither requirement nor financial incentive for them to do so. They are and remain premium features only available to people who pay to get access to them.Ĭreator Pro is there for people who want access to premium features to make wonderful feature rich faces for themselves. And to get access to other peoples premium faces you still have to pay for that privilege. in addition, not only can people sync premium faces made by just a few, they can sync from many more designers who want to share their premium faces.īut, and this is a big but, the features are premium, the faces that are produced contain those features and are therefore premium. A great win for people who wanted those features to make faces. Now anyone, for a price, can get access to the premium features of Facer and fully enjoy the creative potential of the Facer platform. Not surprisingly, this would have been seen by some ( maybe many ) as not fair. No one else could get access to those features to make a face. Now, the only people who had access to those premium features to make faces were the Creative Partners. If one wanted to sync a face that had these premium features one had to, not surprisingly, pay a premium. The other version contained premium Facer features that produced faces that were only available via subscription or by individual purchase. The free version allowed anyone, for free obviously, to make, share and download faces that had a minimum set of features. Mmm, I think there may be a different way of looking at this but to see it one might need to go back in time a little, to maybe a year or so ago…īack then there were only two systems, one based around the free Facer Creator and the other I guess being what one might call the premium Facer Creator. Still Facer’s call in the end to implement or not… Is this just a crazy idea or does it have sufficient merit to debate further? How this will impact on Partner designers I am not sure either, but I guess they can also earn points… The difficult part is calculating the dollar value of a point… Only Facer can do that. they can use their points to “purchase” faces by other Pro & Partner designers on Facer and/or to subsidise their creator pro subscription.Ĭreator Pro subscribers can still subscribe to Facer Premium if they wish (Popular) Creator Pro subscribers get something in return for their efforts, i.e. No change for free faces created using the free designer functions When a designer ends his creator pro subscription, points are forfeited.Īttach a $ value to a point so that paid Facer watch faces, creator pro subscriptions and current Premium only faces can be “purchased” using points. Leave the pro feature faces as premium access only, but allow creator pro subscribers to accumulate “points” based on the number of pro feature watch face syncs. What do you guys think of the following suggestion: I do understand that Facer needs to generate income from their work and thus charges for access to the pro functions in Facer creator and that they want to provide as much incentive as possible for users to subscribe to their premium service. I guess US$6 per month is not a huge amount (depending on the exchange rate for those of us outside of the USA), but It feels like you have to pay to work for Facer (instead of the other way round). However, I agree with the Creator Pro model puts me off. Having free access to the “basic” Facer creator functions to create free faces is great, so I do not want to complain too much
