Requests-Will be linked from navigation
Announcement
I am sorry it has come to this, but a few factors have caused me to make this decision. I will no longer be taking requests for free. I will spare you the drama (good and bad) that caused this decision (I know me without drama, shocking..I will give you a moment to compose yourself.) I will from now on be taking requests for headers (LJ and website) and wallpapers for commission only.Edit: I now take icon requests as well, read further for info. Read behind the cut for further information, pricing and the request form. Don't worry the pricing is not painful at all.
Excluded
The following LJ users are excluded from paying for requests. Their requests will remain free
• elusion-She hosts my 10,000+ screencaps for free. You need not pay me for graphics hun.
• jadedmisery-Not that you have ever requested, but if you did you need not pay, the amount of x-men scans you link me to is payment enough, I could never find half of them on my own, and you share with me HQ ones people do for you. I appreciate it.
• If at anytime someone else falls into this category I will let them know personally.
General Information
My artwork is all blended images made in PS7, therefor unlike most commissioned artists I will not charge per character. I will however be charging per image used in the graphic. I will also be taking into consideration the complexity of your request. You can see examples of my work here in my Photobucket banner folder, the memories of this journal and throughout this entry.
Icons
+$1.00 per icon
+Minimum of 5 icons per order
+Maximum of 20 icons per order
+Non animated only NO EXCEPTIONS
+If text or lyrics are not provided no text or tiny text will be used if the graphic calls for it.
+Payment is due before icons are recieved.
+If you have any specific style requests, include them when you comission me or I will use my own choices for style.
+You do not need to provide images if you do not wish to, however if you do they must be of HQ. If you are unsure if they are HQ you may dicuss it with me prior to requesting or I will let you know if I cannot work with them.
Other
+I can work with shitty, bad quality images, but they take more time and work, if you really want a shit quality image used in your icon request I will charge you accordinly, meaning if I have to spend an hour just cleaning up the image your icon will not cost $1.00. I will evaluate the image and let you know BEFORE I begin.
+If the image you want used has a watermark over the subjects face and you wish for me to use the image, that will require me to remove the watermark which is also a great deal of work, as mentioned above I will evaluate the image and let you know any additional cost before I begin.
I will not be comissioned to make challenge entries. If I see any of my comissioned icons being used as entries for challenges I will notify the moderators of the challenge communities
Pricing for Graphcs
Prices are the same wether your request is a wallpaper or a header. If your request is a LJ header yourname@livejournal.com is free and is not included in text prices
Option A: 2 image blend (simple) [$5.00 U.S ] This is 2 different images blended to create the graphic, simple means that I use brushes and basic gradients to create any affects. 1 line of text is included on the image.
This is an example of "simple" with 1 line of text, this blend however used 3 images
Option B: 2 image blend (complex) [$8.00 U.S ] This again is 2 images blended to create the graphic, however in addition to brushes I will also use more elaborate gradients and textures made by me o create the added affects. You also have no limit on text.
This is an example of "complex", however this graphic uses 3+ images
Extras: additional features and charges to be added to either option A or B
Additional images (above the initial 2): [$1.00 U.S ]
Additional line of text to option A: [$1.00 U.S ]
Image mapping text on headers: [.50 U.S per link ] Example of image mapping text
I will not code a layout or image map

Request Info Long ass explination, request form at the end
• If you have specific images you would like used that is preferred, but not necessary. If you are supplying images please make sure they are HQ. If you would preferr that I choose the images please be specific as to what you want. For example on that portion of the form...
Images: if you have no image you would write I want a Brad Pitt header, something with his shirt off, or I want a Holly marie combs wallpaper, something from season 4 (or) something with her hair up.
Please link images from your request comment.
• Specify the size of the header or wallpaper. If you do not specify size you get whatever I feel like making.
• I would prefer that you not request a color theme. I just work better without them, but seeing as you are now paying me, if you absolutely need a green header, make sure you tell me so, if not I go wherever the graphic takes me with color.
• Please specify the text you want used. If the request is a LJ header please tell me the username you want on it in the form of yourname@livejournal.com (it's free) or specify if you do not want the username on it. No specifications, no text.

• How will you be paying? Please let me know in the form. I prefer paypal.
• Requests are not shareable, they are for you only. I will not post them to the community, so I need to know where to email them. Please fill in your email address on the form. If your email address being in the comments makes you uncomfortable, TOTALLY UNDERSTANDABLE. After I reply with a total cost you may email me at lovesjaydog@yahoo.com with your email address. Please put graphic request email in the subject line and the email address and your LJ user name in the body of the email.
