shop is ; under renovation!
slots are ; OPEN!


HELLO, and welcome to 0HKAY!, a lovely graphic/format store run by specifics. The account used to post this shop is my mule so the two accounts are the same person (this matters because I'll alternate between my two accounts A LOT. i use dragon flavored soda when working with long orders). ANYWAYS, I decided to open a graphic shop because I get really really bored sometimes and I might as well use use that time to do something productive by making banners for OTHER people. So hence this shop.

OH YA; the person in the banner is seungri from big bang. I added him so I COULD EVILLY SEDUCE BIG BANG FAN GIRLS/GUYS INTO MY THREADHAHAHHAHA

also don't you just love the cotton candy color? ; 3; i ended up making my character in rock band wear pink and blue and i currently, blue and pink are my favorite color schemes. c:

____EVENTS
stay and chat! i'll be giving away two bare necessities banner sets (with a de ivider and a side or bottom bannner) to two people who i think deserve it (which pretty much means just stay around here 'nd chat)
OR
bump 300 times to get a free thread layout (but these are done usually after the current orders are done)


____ANNOUNCEMENTS
NOVEMBER 3RD `09. slots is now under renovation! orders may take a little longer than usual and the layout of the shop will look really messy at times, so i apologize if the messy layout hurts your eyes D8
OCTOBER 20TH `09. after i finish the last three orders i have, i will be renovating the shop under a new name & layout. slots will be still be open during the time i'm working on the new layout, and after it's all up, freebies will start becoming available.
OCTOBER 14TH `09. alright, so i've got an estimate down for how long it takes me to complete orders; normally with orders, it takes me a whole weekend to complete at least one order (two if one is small). ALSO, i hope to soon get freebies up- these will just be icons/fan banners/maybe wallpapers that you can use free of charge! (:
SEPTEMBER 9TH `09. school has started for me- i'm unsure exactly how my schedule will play out and whether or not i'll have time to work on graphic, so only order if you're okay with me taking an unknown time working on your order.
AUGUST 31ST `09. first order! :D
AUGUST 30TH `09. after slaving for a sunday afternoon the graphic shop is finally open!

one. follow the terms of service. quite easy YES? (i've been playing too much animal crossing :c)

two. do not steal any of my graphics, roleplays, characters, etc, but i'm okay if you can base your own pieces off of mine if you want. (idk why you'd want to though =_______=) i value my work and i would hate to see them used elsewhere. i will allow you to use the icons and the lavi image, but please tell me if you want to.

three. respect everyone and anyone and everything in this thread. i don't expect you to be all fake sparkly and happy, but i don't want you to use this thread as your anger outlet. respecting someone also means = don't verbally abuse someone (cursing wayy too much), don't harass, don't troll, don't threaten, etc. etc.

four. this isn't a sympathy thread. i don't mind if you post any problems you have but don't expect me to go running up to you with a blanket and lots of love. THERE IS A LIFE ISSUES FORUM Y'KNOW. .________.

five. i would love if you could give suggestions/comments on my graphics because the main reason why i opened this shop up was so i could get better at graphics (while getting gold). but if you're gonna be downright snarky and bitchy about my work, shut it.

six. don't quote anything from the front page, and i don't want to see long quote towers either. PLUS IMAGES THAT STRETCH THE PAGE = NO NO.

seven. once i finish an order and send the completed order to you, host any graphics on your own server. it might take a while for me to delete your graphics, but nevertheless, they will eventually be deleted.

eight. please use correct grammar in the thread. i don't want to sit here trying to decode what you're saying.

nine. if you try and rush me, i will cancel your order. i don't mind asking me how far i'm into your order, but if you push me, i'll stop. i don't always have access to photoshop (hopefully i will soon), but usually when i do, i work fast.

ten. be specific when ordering. i'm fine without having a color scheme (that means i'll just choose it myself, but trust me, i can get really bad with choosing colors), but don't make everything obscure and confusing.

yay i love ten rules. n______n rules can change at any given time.





q; CAN I PAY YOU IN LOVE?
a; aha, no, unless i already know you/i'm quite close to you (which is probably like 5 people on this site)

q; why are your prices so high?
a; are they really? D: i made the prices reasonable, if not cheap. if you don't like them, go elsewhere.

q; could you teach me how to do graphics?
a; as much as i would love to be your tutor, no, i can't. i would find it quite pointless and i'm a pretty bad teacher. if you're really interested in learning, just go to www.good-tutorials.com or deviantart and just keep on doing tutorials until you feel like you have the hang of it. that's the only advice i can give you.

q; IDG the prices still!!!
alright, sit back. this is gonna take a little explaining to do:
for banner sets - you start with 15, it's minus 100 gold for every banner you don't want (so like say you take out five banners, that's 500 gold off the 3,000). banner sets can come with a side banner or bottom banner, but if you choose one of those two, they count as one of the 15 banners i'm going to make. dividers, buttons, and linking banners are separate. bare necessities is a different sort of package- you do not get any header banners with it, nor can you order any with it. it's simply a header mini banner, and a side/bottom banner. the 100g extra add on banner would only be if you want a side or bottom banner and you chose the other.
for thread layouts- IT DOES NOT COME WITH A BANNER SET YET. you can pay 300 gold for six banner headers, or 600 gold for twelve banner headers, and it's 100 gold for every banner you add onto them (for example if you want eight, you'd add on 200 gold to make 500 gold). if you want five banners, you'll have to pay the full 500 for it. sorry.

hopefully you get it now! n____n if not.... well just ask me again. >>;


q; i still don't quite get what i can order.
a; alright, so you know how most graphic stores sell thread layouts? well most of the time those thread layouts are usually just graphics, which in this thread, would be my banner sets. when you order my thread layouts here, they already come with coding.

q; how long have you been doing graphics?
a; uhm... about 2 years or so? but i made rarely any graphics in the school year of 08-09, and this summer i started up again (since i became more active on gaia).

i'm sorry for the lack of prettyness and questions in this post ; 3;

b u t t o n s / i c o n s
this is simple tiny stuff. buttons can be used for linking your thread, and icons can be for pretty much anything. both buttons and icons are edited and brushes are added in.
____ the button that links to this thread (look in my signature/links in)

e a s y s h m e e z y s t u f f
in this section, you can choose one of the following:

&#xu2;192 a set of edited icons (max is five)
&#xu2;192 quick edit on an image some brushes&text
&#xu2;192 pretty text edit brushes
&#xu2;192 userbar

______
(i'm going to be adding in several more examples later because this section has many different options)

n i c e - o c o o l b a n n e r s
this is just one banner, normally used for a header or a nice edit for roleplays. i spend a good amount of time working on these. and most i make them pretty large so don't worry about size (of course you do want a specific size)
______

p o s t f o r m a t
this includes one-three graphics coding. you also can request a chatroom format (although i have no examples for those at the moment) or a roleplay-posting format.
____

b a n n e r s e t
a set of banners which would be something like a head banner, than 'mini' banners, which would be something like: intro banner, then a rules banner, then a story banner, etc. etc. you start with 15 and work your way down. you can also request dividers, side banners, bottom banners, or 'mini' headers (basically they're smaller and somewhat altered versions of the head banner), but each one counts as one banner.

the graphics in this thread, thread layouts, and profile layouts are examples. i'll put other examples here later. >>;


p r o f i l e l a y o u t
this is for profiles that do not have a set code to follow (meaning this only applies for roleplays); you can request either a single post format or a character thread format. you start with five graphics of your choice (if you want less/more, look at the pricing for more details). you can ask for a customized profile code, but i may decline because those things are really tiring to make.

____

t h r e a d l a y o u t
you start out with a head banner, and either a side banner or bottom banner (if you want both look below at pricing) PLUS format and coding.

__ this thread
^ these threads were actually create pretty quickly; i'm working on some others right now and they'll be posted once i'm finished with them. i assure you, i'll work harder on your order. xDD /gold motivation activated

[Dragon Flavored Soda]

I WILL NOT:
- do wallpapers
- take bribes
- take items as a payment
- respond to your order if you PM me it
- want to be rushed
- do IRL commissions (too young to have a paypal and graphics really aren't worth $5 irl are they? xDD)
- start in your order until you send me a trade

I'M FINE WITH:
- editing/working with avi art, as long as you have the artist's permission (please add a screenshot of the confirmation in your order)
- you backing out of an order (as long as i haven't gotten far into the banner/started working on it)
- changing the graphics if needed (unless you ask A LOT of times. i'm fine if you do it once or twice)
- art as a payment (please ask me beforehand though)
- those border things (but you'll have to pay more wait longer because i've never really tried them before heart )
- special requests (like if you want a certain font or certain brush set)

step one. fill out the order form (if you're confused about a section leave it blank) and post it in the thread
step two. send a trade to specifics with the title 'GRAPHICS! page ___'
step three. i responding saying i accept your order (most likely)
step four. i may mention in the thread when i'm starting on someone's order (usually if it's a big order)- if you have anything you want to change in your order/anything you want to add, be sure to tell me shortly after or before i start on your order.
step five. i work on your order. you will most likely get a W.I.P. if you ordered a banner set or thread layout (for banner sets, most likely a WIP of the main banner and one other banner; for thread layouts, most likely one or two posts) so be sure that i can reach you through PMs. if you dislike something, tell me then so i can fix it.
step six. i finish your order and PM it to you
step seven. we complete the trade
step eight. we're done!

(delete any sections that don't apply)

[color=#53a1df][b]colors[/b][/color]: what colors do you want in your order? it'd be preferred if you have hex codes or a colors palette, but a description/reference works (i can also use the colors from the picture if you provide one; if you want that to happen, just say so)
[color=#53a1df][b]design/style[/b][/color]: any sort of specific look for your order? like old-styled, western, school, etc.
[color=#53a1df][b]text #1[/b][/color]: this would go into the main item you ordered (like for the main banner, or the text you want on the right of the username bar).
[color=#53a1df][b]text #2[/b][/color]: text that will go in the mini banners, or on any other graphic you also ordered.
[color=#53a1df][b]specific font/brushes[/b][/color]: any specific font/brush you want me to use? i can also go by reference like 'curly' or 'cursive'. just link it to me; these aren't required. also, be sure they're free because i'm not paying for them. >>;
[color=#53a1df][b]image[s][/b][/color]: if you want me to use an image/images, please link it/them here. if it's avi art, please also link the screenshot showing that you have permission.
[color=#53a1df][b]extras[/b][/color]: any add on/add offs?
[color=#53a1df][b]other[/b][/color]: if there's anything i missed or something that you want but couldn't mention earlier (like specific size of the banner), place it here. c:
