well, this shop all started when i changed my username. i decided that i wanted a change, so i generated some random words and found this, vintage aids. i spent 100k to change it, so it is going to stay like this for a while. anyway, follow the rules and post your order forms here. do not under any circumstances, pm me your order forms. just don't. okay? good.
this is a graphics shop. i make post layouts, forum layouts, but not profile layouts. i may not be on all the time, so don't be mad if you'r order takes a few days to complete. i have a life. anyway, remember to follow the rules, and fill out the order form to the best of your ability! ^-^

✖ do not steal my layouts or graphics. i work hard on my layouts. taking graphics without paying for them will just get you reported and banned from my shop. stealing is either when you take the layout without paying for it, or when you buy it, change it a little, and then sell it to someone else. please, if you see someone using something from this shop, or something an artist has made [besides the person who bought it], let me know.

✖ please respect all people in this thread. that means to respect the artist if he/she turns your order down, and not cussing anyone out. if the artist wants you to pay before you even get a sample of the layout, just do it. period.

✖ all the artists here price their own layouts. that means if you don't like the price, get over it. order from someone else. once this shop becomes a joint shop, you either pay the artists price, or not. simple as that. if you have a problem with the pricing, you can privately talk to the artist about it. maybe you guys can work something out. if you still have trouble affording the layout, talk to me about it. i might be nice enough to reimburse a bit of your gold. however, if you think you were overcharged for a low-quality layout, let me know.

✖ so, you want to work here. well you have to wait until the first post says we are hiring. once it is, post the form here. if you pm it to me, i will ignore it. get rejected? get over it. not everyone has the talent i see fit here. don't get an attitude about it either. go apply somewhere else.

✖ when you post an order form, quote the artist. they will see your order easier. if you don't know how to quote the artist, here is how you do it -

[quote"username"][/quote]

✖ i think most of the artists here have lives. so don't give us rush orders. if you really need a layout fast, go to one of the crappy free layout places. i put a lot of time into the layouts, so if you want quality, you have to wait. get over it.

✖ no flaming, trolling, spamming, or cussing. if you don't like someone, just don't talk to them. if they quote you, ignore it. i'm not dr. phil, and i don't help you with relationship problems. if you want to discuss the issues between you two, go somewhere else. i really don't need to have that cluttering my thread.

✖ the basics - don't page stretch, don't advertise another thread, etc. basically, don't be immature.

✖ if you are going to use images for your layouts, please be sure to find large ones. a good size is around 700x700 pixels. this way it will look nicer if i have to re-size the image. if you give me a smaller one, if i make it larger the pixels will distort the image and you might not be able to tell what it is. just a thought.

✖ don't ask me how i make the layouts. it goes to show that you want to copy me somehow. you can ask what program i use, but don't ask the step-by-step crap. it gets on my nerves.

✖ don't just ask for a layout. there are order forms for a reason. i want to keep things organized. have a problem? get out. the order forms are used so i can get an idea of what you want. i don't have to following it exactly, so your final product may vary. all parts of the order form are mandatory. the only optional part is the tip.
