CURRENTLY CLOSED

Hello and welcome to Starlight Dreams, my very own graphics shop. I make all sorts of graphics - but not all are on display in my shop. If you want something that isn't here, please post and we can talk it through.
Feel free to look around and ask any questions <3





• 30 May 2012 - Opened again for the summer (:
• 20 June 2010 - I've added a few contests for you! Click here to have a look!
• 10 April 2010 - Added Brush Sets to the list of resources - hopefully this will make it easier to choose themes for thread layouts :3
• 30 December 2009 - I have re-done the layout, and edited the thread LOADS. Ready to re-open (hopefully for good, this time!!)
• 20 February 2009 - Shop re-opened after a few months of being unofficially closed
• 21 September 2008 - Slots are now open! Get ordering (:
• 20 September 2008 - Thread created




Number of slots has been decreased due to my hectic life. If these are all full, you can always Bribe Me (below). The title of the thread usually states whether slots are open, closed or full. Pretty self explanatory :3
1. OPEN
2. OPEN
3. OPEN




These are always open (unless the shop is totally closed). Bribe Slots have highest priority, and will receive their graphics fastest. All I ask is that you pay at least double the price you would normally pay, and put 'I'd like a bribe slot' somewhere in your order. You can bribe me with items, tickets, tokens, pure gold or a mixture of all of them. All I ask is that it totals at least double the price you would normally pay (otherwise it wouldn't really be a bribe, would it ;D

• Follow ToS
• Don't be rude; treat others as you would like to be treated
• Please use good grammar, and be at least semi-literate here.
• Do not advertise, beg or spam
• Do not steal ANY OF MY GRAPHICS (or the wording from this page)! I will report you
• Please include the words 'Whistling Stranger' in the 'Code Word' part of the order form, so I know you read the rules
• Don't PM me, unless I PM'd you first.
• No freebies, reduced rates etc unless I say so.

What program do you use?
I use MS Paint and GIMP

Can you teach me how to __________?
No. Go look it up on Google. There are loads of tutorials on the internet D: <

I ordered a _______ a few days ago, but you haven't sent it to me. Where is it????
Hold your horses! I might be super busy in real life, or have loads of other orders to do. Just be patient!

Do you take anything else except gold for payment?
Yes! I accept tokens (priced at 1g each) tickets (priced at 3g each) bugs, ink, flowers, trash, fish, store items, art.... anything you have lying around!
But please - make sure it's at least near the actual price of what you are paying for. I will not accept if you are ripping me off D: <

Can you change something on your graphics/make me something that isn't offered here?
Yes, as long as it is reasonably easy to do (thus, I won't have to increase the price) and doesn't infringe copyright rules. Just put it in the 'Anything else?' section on the form, and we'll discuss (:
If you want something that isn't currently offered, and are not sure of the price, then post that an inquiry and I'll get back to you as soon as possible!

How/when will I receive my graphics?
I will PM them to you, in about 1 - 2 days time, depending on how busy I am (remember I do go to school, so I have homework and after school clubs to get on with. I do have a life, thank you very much xD) Therefore, PLEASE HAVE PMs TURNED ON! Otherwise I will post the graphics in the thread, and you'll have to find them

I have a picture of my favourite anime/cartoon/Pokemon/whatever character that I found on the internet, can you make it into a graphic for me?
No. If you don't own it - and don't have permission from the creator(s) to use it - I can't use it. If you want me to make it for you for free (which I'm sure you do) that I can do. Otherwise I'm selling someone else's creation for money, and that's illegal. I can, however, use images from Gaia, charged at the normal rate.

You've used my brush/font/etc without giving full credit! =O
I'm so sorry!!
Please notify me at once, with a link if you wish, so that I can add it to my 'Credits' section.




1. Read everything in this post, then post your order form in the thread.
2. Send a trade to me, with the correct amount of gold, titled with like this:

New order: page ____
(don't know how to change the title in the new trade system? Click here.
3. I will confirm the trade when I start work on the order.
4. When I have finished the order, I will PM the graphics to you, and accept the trade.
5. You check the graphics, and reply to the PM with any comments etc. If all is well, accept the trade. If not, then I will correct anything and re-send the graphics. When you're happy that I've done everything, accept the trade.
Finished!

Here's an example, so you know what to do (:

The start of a beautiful thread is a beautiful layout, and here I am offering just that!

A Thread Layout generally consists of a main header, headers for all the posts (and sections within the posts), 88x31 button, 200x40 banner, dividers and anything else you want (within reason).
I do not do the coding. So do not ask.

A few examples are this thread and my Quest Thread.

Other examples:
[ x ] [ o ] [ x ] [ o ] [ x ]

This is sort of anything goes. You describe it; I make it. Just please, please PLEASE be precise and detailed. I cannot be blamed for making a layout that you don't like if you haven't helped me out.
If you do not have a copyright free image - please go here. These are royalty-free, and free to use.
If you do use a picture from the above site, please put a link to the page you found it on in your form - this may be needed to be put in your thread somewhere in order for you to use it in your layout.
Thank you ♥

Price: 10,000g. This is an introductory offer. You think it's worth more? The tip jar is always there ;D

Style 1


A simple, unanimated banner, with text, graphics, colours, borders and brushes of your choice
Price: 100g
NOTE: Many fonts do not look good, and are unreadable, at such a small size (unless the word is short). For this reason, I would advise you choose a blinkie font for any text on this size of banner. However, I can always work a few miracles and squeeze it on there (check with me first if you're unsure).
