Dear Reader:
Super Mario Bros. Z creator faces Patreon trouble after a Nintendo DMCA claim
Just for clarification. My Patreon was closed down.

For those unfamiliar with the current situation, Alvin Earthworm is the creator and animator of a popular online series known as Super Mario Bros. Z. He opened a Patreon account, which received a large amount of supporters. However, since Super Mario Bros. Z contained heavy amounts of Nintendo-related content, the Patreon page was terminated as a result of a DMCA claim from Nintendo themselves.
Alvin Earthworm has now decided to create a secondary Patreon page. This time, his Patreon page was simply made for the idea of him earning money for animations in general, as opposed to being just for Super Mario Bros. Z. The plan is to hopefully avoid copyright and manage to continue creating animations with the support of his fanbase.
