Why you don't continue your art curation initiatives?
Short answer, nearly every artist is getting very well rewarded.
Long answer... just a couple of weeks after they join the platform, every artist is getting paid well enough if their works are good and original. So, I don't feel the need to promote them anymore, as the whales are doing a good job themselves. Back then, it would take around 6 months for artists to get the same results these new users have after 4 or 5 weeks.
That's true :P ... So, I think you should come up with a new initiative idea... :P I was thinking to create a show like PBChit-chat but nobody will watch me :(
