Ninja\u2019s manager hits back at accusation of underpaying for Twitch logo Ninja\u2019s manager and wife, Jessica Blevins, has rebuffed accusations of skimping out in her efforts to commission a new logo for her Twitch channel. The Blevins\u2019 pair a tight-nit partnership. Not only are the duo husband and wife, but Jessica also doubles-up as Ninja\u2019s manager. Alongside running the Ninja brand, Jessica maintains her own Twitch channel which currently boasts over 465,000 followers. In a bid to improve her channel\u2019s aesthetic, the 26-year-old put out a contest that prompted creators to design a ghost-themed logo to fit her alias. Blevins initially Tweeted out to her following, offering $500 for the design and full rights to the artist whose logo she settled on. The American subsequently posted a disclaimer, informing her fellow creators: \u201cjust because you pay someone for a logo does not mean you own it.\u201d Great moment to let you creators know that just because you pay someone for a logo DOES NOT MEAN you own it. If you sell things with a logo without signed over rights, they could come back and request money from each sale or each time you used it if it profited your brand. \u2014 Jessica Blevins (@JessicaBlevins) December 6, 2019 After sending out her word of warning, Blevins\u2019 DMs were filled with submissions from far and wide. Any candidates shortlisted as \u2018finalists\u2019 were also promised a $50 bursary for their efforts. OMG! I\u2019ve spent the morning going through so many submissions. The creative spins on the ghost logo are awesome. Can\u2019t wait to pick finalists!! \u2014 Jessica Blevins (@JessicaBlevins) December 6, 2019 However, a fellow Twitch streamer under the handle \u2018Devsolance,\u2019 replied to Jessica\u2019s call for a new logo, by sneer at the amount that she was offering in return for \u201cthousands of hours of work from fans.\u201d Evidently irked by the comment, Jessica stated: \u201cJust because we have money, doesn\u2019t mean we need to overpay for things,\u201d before going on to explain the nature of the design competition. Additionally, I’m going to give multiple designers money for their work even if I don’t choose them, and no one needs to submit. I want to support creators as much as possible, don’t act like this is mal practice. \u2014 Jessica Blevins (@JessicaBlevins) December 6, 2019 With her frustrations clearly being beyond the bounds of a single-character limited Tweet, the 26-year-old followed up with another post. Refusing to be subjected to a label from a bystander, Blevins stated: \u201cI want to support creators as much as possible, don\u2019t act like this is malpractice,\u201d in a bid to shut down any further replies. With her husband leading the charge on rival streaming platform, Mixer, Jessica continues to pursue her gaming endeavors on Twitch in front of her faithful following.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
