European Server?
Assuming we're still getting income from the site as well as from Patreon, this would cover the expansion into Europe and Asia.
Free Willy!
Tigerdile is free to use! We've got enough money to cover costs, and enough money to cover the expansion that the likely influx of users would bring.

www.Tigerdile.com is currently a for-pay streaming site where artists and other creators can pay to stream content. It's a furry-friendly community, but we service other creators that want to stream as well as long as they're at least furry sympathizers.
Tigerdile has been in operation for two years now, and is co-owned by Caribou and Tanabi. Both have been members of the Furry community for practically ever, and Caribou in particular is a well-known artist that has been a guest of honor at Anthrocon and is an Ursa Major award winner.
The site has always paid for itself through the payment of it's streamers; however, we've gotten a lot of requests from helpful viewers to be able to help support the site. Patreon is, in part, a way to enable viewers to contribute.
It's also a way to allow viewers to support their favorite artists, by using Patreon rewards to gift time to people!
If this campaign succeeds, there could be a day where Tigerdile is 100% free to use. Tigerdile costs about $400 a month to run at present. In order to provide Tigerdile as a free service, we would need to cover cost plus money for expansion, as expansion would be almost certain if we went free. Additionally, Tigerdile keeps a several-month reserve of "rainy day" funds because we understand that many artists use Tigerdile as a primary income stream, and as such we need to be responsible custodians of the site and able to financially respond to whatever may come down the road.
Even if the campaign doesn't push us into the realm of providing free service, we can use this additional money to provide viewer-centric features such as mobile support and Europe- and Asia- based stream proxies. These are features that would benefit our viewers a lot, but do not as directly impact our streamers.
And on a final note, if you're an artist and you want to "sponsor" yourself through Patreon rather than using Tigerdile's usual money intake, you are welcome to do so. This may be more convienent for some of our streamers.
How do sponsorships work?
After Patreon collects money, Tigerdile will make a post asking people whom they want to apply their sponsorship dollars to. Tigerdile will then apply the money accordingly. We recommend that sponsors publicly post whom they are sponsoring so that one artist does not receive a ton of sponsors; an artist may be sponsored by multiple people (they will get multiple months of Tigerdile), but that's probably not the best thing for them. They'd probably rather you buy something from them!
Also, you cannot sponsor Tigerdile admins, as they get free streaming. Tigerdile admins are: Caribou, Tanabi, Flinters, BrooklynX, Northern-Crosshair, and Temrin.
