Purchases

  1. Artist sets prices on types of images they are willing to draw
    1. For example, artist says it's $40 for a sketch, $80 for an inked drawing, and $160 for a colored/shaded drawing
    2. Artist can set whatever criteria he wants for pricing—number of characters, licensing, what have you
  2. User makes a purchase
    1. User can create multiple tag_groups on the commission
    2. User also gets a description box to write arbitrary text
  3. Arist accepts the commission after reviewing it
    1. User is notified and then charged
    2. Arist begins drawing
    3. Users can talk to artists at any point in this process, via either text or a skype clone thing
  4. Artist finishes commission
    1. User is notified
  5. User confirms acceptance
    1. User can flag the piece as a "total ripoff". This means that the artist either didn't draw anything related to the user's request, or half-assed it. If mods decide this is the case, user gets back a portion of cash and the artist cannot receive payment for anything until he fixes it

Marketing
