No, I meant that other people commission them, and other people has other ways of making profit
You still will, thatâs all old assets which arenât affected.
The majority of commissions that I personally would get/see are from clothing groups. If these groups arenât profitable anymore then thereâs no point or funding to hire designers.
This wonât stop the problem, itâs just adding prices to upload the clothes. Those will remain up. The bots wont stop either. Theyâll just use group funds and a new script.
This also causes a major threat to one pending commission of mine, where they may charge back if they dislike this upcoming update.
Tearing via studio is awesome!!
But adding a cost to publish the clothing seems like it will hardly slow people down. If someone wants to publish stolen clothing and make money off of it, wonât they see the fee as a small price to pay and continue to steal clothing?
That is an absolutely horrible response. Still need clothing for people, and that just screws over any clothing group if your response is to âjust look into game developmentâ.
Iâm still 50/50 about this update, i think the idea to use robux as a way to stop botting is genius but Premium users should be able to upload for free.
Gonna make this graph here to see what others think.
- I agree with this update and think itâs a perfect solution!
- I agree with this update, but Premium users have to upload content for free.
- I donât agree with this update unless small changes are made to it.
- I donât agree with this update no matter whatâs changed.
- I donât care about what changes are made.

EDIT:
Fixed it.
i think it should be higher than 10 robuxs
I could not have said it better myself. Although I am not a veteran designer like you, Everything in this comment I agree with. Especially as a smaller designer, making any profit from designs that we get to upload is already extremely difficult, especially with the completely broken catalog. This update is just the final blow to tell other smaller designers and I to just stop trying to manage a clothing group. I would say only 5% of my assets ever get one sale, which will definitely not pay off the fees for uploading them to begin with. I wish Roblox could just try to stop reuploaders from being able to view and take the uploaded files to begin with, rather than killing off any chance we have to make a profit.
Maybe you should let people enjoy working on art as is and not force them into a niche they donât like. This is a poor response and reeks of arrogance.
Itâs a step in the right direction which limits a significant amount of those who upload clothing using a bot. I canât imagine the catalog team isnât thinking about doing something in regards to all of the current uploaded spam clothing
How much is the upload fee? I feel like we could make it high enough to prevent mass botting but low enough so clothing designers can at least sell their items. Most clothing designers need to reach out to bigger ones or big group owners to get their items recognised. As a result, if they do not seek out bigger designers they will not be able to profit if the fee is high as they can only feasibly sell at 5 robux. Imo, the price floor ahould be increased to 7 robux.
Overall, I am VERY happy with this change as it will heavily stop botters from mass uploading copies.
I am going to assume youâve never been one of the âpeopleâ that have had their primary source of income on Roblox be from clothing? Clothing groups are an entire industry on Roblox that has been around longer than any of us, and this is going to put a majority of those groups out of commission. I agree that something needs to be done to stop the botters but rear-ending the legitimate designers isnât the way to do it.
Absolutely not!
I understand your effort, but this is bizzare! 100 robux per upload is way too much especially for active designers! This will change the whole community in a negative way!
If there is a fee to upload, what should it be?
- None
- 1-10 robux
- 11-50 robux
- 51-99 robux
- 100+ robux

You didnât understand my original post. Nevermind the detrimental impact this has to up-and-coming designers, but this will put the established designers that have made a living off of this industry out of business because they will no longer be profitable.
Almost all of these responses are speculation. Everyone is getting worked up over nothing. No one ever said there will be an upload fee of 100 robux. Please read this thread before you come out with these replies.
This update basically says â**** youâ to anyone who is trying to get started as a clothing designer. People find things in their imagination, and they create it. Robloxâs slogan is âImpowering Imaginationâ, and this is the absolute opposite of this. For your imagination, for you to sell items, you have to pay actual currency for an online game. I donât understand your point here, but groups make this their only profit. People build communities off of it, and people build friends off of it. It destroys small creators trying to sell to people and even destroys larger groups. You canât just tell people to âgO fInD sOmEtHiNg ElSeâ when this is what they feel comfortable doing and this is what they want to do. I donât run a clothing group, I develop for a large theatre which also sells clothing. Your reasoning doesnât make sense.
Thereâs ALOT of problem throught that, us clothing designers donât make alot of money throught commissions, itâs worst, alot of peoples DM us and say âitâs overpriced!â and keep talking bad about our prices, this would never help by charging the fee for like 100 robux.
