Would you use a creator-first platform for comics and animation?

Hi everyone, I’m Azereth. I’m both an artist and a consumer of the art based storytelling, and like many people online, I’ve felt frustrated watching how platforms treat creators.

I’ve seen projects flagged or hidden for no good reason, seen artists struggle just to be visible, and watched amazing shows and comics disappear because they weren’t “profitable enough.” It’s disheartening, not just as a creator, but as a fan who loves and cares about these stories.

That’s what pushed me to start working on an idea called Stellaframe. My idea is to build a home for both comics and animation, where:

Creators aren’t censored or "shadowbanned" into silence.

Funding tools directly intergrated into the website to help artists both make a living and fund their works.

Discovery highlights more than what's popular.

Fans and artists can connect without worrying that their favorite work will vanish overnight.

This is still just an idea right now, but it’s important to me to know if others feel the same way. If you’ve ever wished for a space like this, I’d love if you could take a few minutes to share your thoughts in this short survey: https://forms.gle/oCC4p85MzJcZr3GS6

Thank you for your time. Whether you’re an artist, animator, or fan, your opinion is what matters most right now. I want to make something to give back to the art community I so love and admire, but first I need to see if this is something that is wanted before I invest into it.

I’m excited to share the website mockups for Stellaframe. These designs are just the beginning, showing off the brand’s personality, purpose, and potential.

Take a look and let me know what you think! Feedback is always welcome.

Are you an indie creator tired of censoring your work just to stay online? Want to actually fund your stories and stay in control?

I’m building Stellaframe, a platform for uncensored publishing + direct creator funding.

Greetings,

I am Azereth, a young artist and writer. Ever since I was young, stories have always been what moved me. I was fascinated and invested in the way a good story could manipulate and play with my emotions, bringing to new highs and lows with just a couple of words or pictures on screen.

I created Stellaframe because I saw these stories be silenced, censored, or tossed to the side by companies decided that they were either not profitable enough to continue or they were considered to be "controversial". Animation shows and comics can get cancelled without warning (ie. Wander Over Yonder) or cancelled/rushed due to the creator taking risks and representing something like LGBTness (ie. The Owl House and Steven Universe).

Animators and Comic Artists are often straight up disrespected and have to unionize to get even a fraction of basic pay and respect as they are seen as "unprofitable" which simply isn't true! People all around the world love these things and are very willing to support it, but its the lack of marketing that sets everyone back.

As a creator myself, I worry that the platforms I use will censor me put incorrect labels on my work. I wanted to make something not just for myself but everyone can use. I want to give to the art community a place where they have total control over their work and help them recieve the funding to both continue the work and to live safely off their work.

I want Stellaframe to be:

A home for stories that are bold, weird, honest, or experimental.

A place where creators don’t have to choose between self-expression and survival.

A platform for us, by one of us.

Want to help shape Stellaframe?

Right now, I’m focusing on the core idea: letting creators post without censorship and receive funding to continue their work.
