- Replying to @RYANMRNGSTRYeah it put me in a bad spot for a bit too haha
- Replying to @dr_glitzkriegYou're correct, this Misato piece was added a few years back and it was then removed. We migrated to a new web domain about 45 days ago and moved all the items with us. It seems that we forgot to 'unpublish' this item after it was batch migrated. I unpublished it.
- Replying to @IcedTeaClothingI am happy that this thread has gotten a good ending. Zuyu feels much better now, and I am much happier having to pay him knowing that he's legit, rather than not paying him knowing that he isn't. Thanks for reading. End Thread.
- Replying to @IcedTeaClothingI Alexander Ally, owner of Iced Tea Aesthetics formally & genuinely apologizes to Zuyu for seriously hurting their reputation and putting them under immense stress. Our evidence was circumstantial and incomplete. 7/x
- Replying to @IcedTeaClothingLastly, to celebrate Zuyuโs art, I republished his designs and created a collection for them. ALL profit made off Zuyuโs designs with this link will go to Zuyu. I have given Zuyu access to my dashboard and he has access to the numbers and sales. (it-aesthetics.com/collections/arโฆ) 12/x
- Replying to @IcedTeaClothingZuyu once mentioned that he wishes he could afford to purchase an iPad. So I am gifting him an iPad. My personal way of telling him to keep pursuing his art. 10/x
- Replying to @IcedTeaClothingI understand that reputational damage cannot be quantified with dollars. So I ask you to share this thread to ensure this apology receives the same exposure as the accusation threads. It will greatly help in healing Zuyu's reputation. 11/x
- Replying to @IcedTeaClothingThe amount of 1500 USD has been sent to Zuyuโs PayPal. 9/x
- Replying to @IcedTeaClothingAlthough Zuyu admits to tracing some works in the past, we do not think that such a minor sin warrants the destruction of his reputation or the immense stress that we put him through over the past few days. For this reason: 6/x
- Replying to @IcedTeaClothingAs mentioned in the previous thread, we were ready to pay Zuyu 500 USD to get on a live stream with us where we will test his art skill and an additional 1000 USD as compensation should we be proven wrong. 8/x
- Replying to @IcedTeaClothingWe got in contact with Zuyu to arrange a live stream. There, Zuyu finally responded to us and began providing his evidence. After reviewing the evidence provided by Zuyu, we were able to resolve our previous concerns and have decided to dismiss our earlier suspicions. 5/x
- Replying to @zuyuancesarThank you Zuyu, looking forward to seeing what you can do with the IPad :)
