What does "Get Both" mean?

Accepted Answer

A bundle discount when a post has both a Recipe and Blueprint. One purchase, both products.

Question 8

Can I get a refund?

Accepted Answer

Recipes are non-refundable (instant digital delivery). Blueprints have a 7-day window for broken files or misleading descriptions. AI output variability is not grounds for a refund. See /refunds.

Accepted Answer

Yes. All paid Recipes and Blueprints include commercial use rights. You can use the outputs in client work, products, and commercial projects.

Question 10

Will I get the same results as the artist?

AI output is inherently variable. The same prompt produces different results depending on tool version, settings, and random seed. You get the artist’s exact process, but your results will be unique variations.

What are fan subscriptions?

Accepted Answer

Subscribe to an artist for $5–25/month. Artists choose which Recipes and Blueprints are free for subscribers, and can post exclusive subscriber-only content.

How do ratings work?

After purchasing, rate 1–5 stars with an optional review. Aggregate ratings appear on the listing after 5 or more ratings.

Question 14

How does tool verification work?

Accepted Answer

After purchasing a Recipe, vote whether the prompt worked in each tagged tool. After 5+ positive votes, the tool earns a "✓ Verified" badge.

Does Drift Gallery support video content?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Artists can upload video clips in MP4 or WebM format, up to 15 seconds long and 50MB in size. Video posts autoplay silently in the Explore feed alongside images. You can filter the feed to show only images or only video.

Question 16

Can I edit my post after uploading?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Click the Edit Post button on your post page to update the title, description, style tags, pricing, and product content (prompt text, generation settings, LoRA references, ComfyUI workflows, and more). Media (images/videos) can be replaced using the Replace button on the post page.

Question 17

What is the signature/watermark feature?

Accepted Answer

Artists can upload a custom signature image or create one using 30 preset artist-style fonts — in Settings or directly on the Upload page. The signature gets composited onto artwork during upload. You can control position, size, and opacity, and preview it before saving. Signatures appear on the full-resolution image but not on thumbnails.
