        Is it too late to change my pledge to something higher? (if it is -- that is ok -- but I wanted to raise the pledge if I could)

    We did it! A big thank you - and book examples

    A BIG thank you to everyone who made a pledge to our Drawing Day project on Kickstarter

    It's not only exciting that our book will go ahead, but very exciting that we have raise awareness about Drawing Day and have more power to spread the word about our event.

    We reached our goal and still have a week left to raise more funds. More funds means more promotional power to spread the word about our event, so please share this project with your creative friends.

    Those of you still considering a pledge or those who already made a pledge, we have put together an example of what to expect from the book. This is just an example and the design may vary, but this will give you some visual reference of the book.

    A sample of the book

    • On the left is an example of an artist profile page (see pledges for details of this)
    • On the right is an example of what drawings will look like in the gallery

    Did you know you can upgrade your pledge?

    If you have already made a pledge, did you know you can upgrade your pledge to a higher pledge any time? Made a small pledge and now want to copy of the book, or a T-shirt, or an artist profile in the book - to do this, follow these steps:

    • Make sure you are logged in to Kickstarter
    • Simply click the MANAGE YOUR PLEDGE button on the right of our project page
    • From here you can select a different pledge and it will instantly update your pledge

    We still need more funds to help Drawing Day be the biggest success that it can.

    All pledgers will be contacted once our project is complete with details about the gifts associated with their pledge.

    Happy Drawing Day - it's almost here!

    It sounds like you figured out the answer bleachy, if not, $1 is the minimum. Look at the various pledges on the right for details about what you get in return with each pledge. If you have any more questions you are welcome to message me privately.
