      Nah. But anything more complicated than a MacBook scares most people away. Most people aren’t down with anything that isn’t a turnkey experience

        Most of these artists use fairly complicated, or difficult to master, software to create and/or edit their art.

        Signing up for and uploading images to a website isn’t really complicated.
