Ladies and Gentlemen... I'm pleased to announce... that account upgrades are now available at ArtistServer.com - using PayPal as the payment gateway. I'm not 100% sure, but I believe you can still upgrade through PayPal if you do not have an account with them. I'll have to look into that.

Where do I go to upgrade my account?
When you login to the "MyAccount" area, you'll now see a button that will take you to the subscription/transactions page. There you'll be able to select an artist or member account upgrade.

If you are logged in right now - click this link.

Can I change my account type?
If you wanted to downshift your account from an Artist to a Member - you can, just delete your songs first to save me the trouble.

If you wanted to convert your account from a Member to an Artist - you can, just do it! :)

What do I do if there is an error?
I get an email for every process or error that happens in the payment system and will contact you to let you know the status of the transaction. Hopefully we won't see any, but this is a new payment system that I built and there could be a bug or two. I've done more than a dozen testing sessions, and as of today, it all seems to work as expected.

What does an upgrade include?
you can visit the http://www.artistserver.com/join page on the site to see what the packages include, or visit the MyAccount area and click on the button to upgrade - this will take you to the same chart which lists what an account contains.

How often will I be billed?
Once per year.

How Much?
artists: $40/yr
members: $12/yr

Can I pay by check?
I currently don't have a means to manage accounts that have paid outside of the PayPal payment system. I hope to add something in the next few months which will manage check based upgrades.

Thank you to all the supportive artists who have waited so long for this day to arrive.

BTW - does anyone know a good angel investor? Possibly anyone who wants to work with me? I'd love to have some help in launching the next stages of my plans. ArtistServer will eventually grow into a platform for not only experiencing media, but generating and remixing it in new ways.
