I now have a Patreon account! I’ve ummed and ahhed about this for some time, but I just recently decided to open a Patreon account for anyone to wants to support my work. This may seem a little cheeky to some, but creating consumer software is not exactly highly profitable. It’s more of a labor of love.

To anyone that knows me, it’s no surprise that I like tattoos. For a while there, I even had my own tattoo gun which I bought on ebay for around 40€… You can imagine the quality of that great machine. 😁 Over the years, I have been tattooed around 50x, so Im no stranger to the experience, and actually quite enjoy the whole ritual of being tatttooed.
