Thank you for your proposal @ProHodler. The NFT Working Group is excited to see the vibrancy you bring to the NEAR ecosystem and is supportive of your efforts to enhance it further.

However, we’d like to clarify that our funding does not cover the creation of art. For the next part of your proposal, please exclude the costs associated with art creation.
