You pay $500pcm for graphics design work on your side projects?

Are they income generating or are you just really committing to getting them/one off the ground without actually quitting 'the day job'?

I start/stop my subscription depending on the work that I have.

Some of the side projects (for example, themusiciansnotebook.com) are actually revenue generating and so I have more wiggle room to spend $500 for a month's worth of design. For example, I make notebooks on behalf of others, so I will work with a designer to help create covers/graphics/etc.

Since I pay for a month at a time, once the work for the above project is done, I'll use the remaining time to have Awesomeic's folks help with wireframes for other projects, which may not have revenue or be launched (prototypes, etc) so that I fully utilize the platform.
