I'm not hiring artists, so I'm not looking for sites or reviewing them, but based on my precursory knowledge these three have this in common;
They act as a middleman and ensure rgR the work is delivered and protects the customer. If the work isn't delivered, or isn't delivered in a satisfactory time limit, or does not meet the client's brief, the money is returned.
>Fiverr
>Deviantart
>VGen
Not to say these sites are great either, since I haven't been on anything other than deviantart, and deviantart has gone to shit, but the fact that they offer protections still stands. Not to mention they all offer their own means of paying the artist, rather than going off platform.
>Haha those sites su-
As I said, I'm not looking up sites, because I'm not the one hiring an artist. I'm not doing the due diligence for you.

Despite all I'm saying here, I wasn't even specifically talking about using another site made for commissions, but rather, I was talking about finding out if someone was professional - simply having a twitter profile is not an indication of such.
Check their website, see their client testimonials, maybe see if they have other socials where people have reviewed their interactions with them, etc.
So yeah, maybe DO check their Linkedin, it's another means of checking their credibility.
Though you can't expect much from someone working for $90.
>That's sooo much work
Then don't go whinging about losing money on hiring a slack ass artist, when you yourself are being a slack ass.

>prove me wrong.
I would say 'look at any industry that's heavily dependent on artists', but I realise a lot of them are notorious for their delays - such as comics or video games - so maybe you're right.
That said, that only means that meeting the deadlines gives you a leg up, should you choose to do this professionally.
