ATTENTION!
For the reasons I have just posted, it is with a heavy heart that I must close this shop. You may go to my post here or you can just read my quote of it below.
Once more and again, thank you, and goodbye! emotion_bigheart

HI EVERYBODY!
I really, really, REALLY have to apologise for not getting through any more orders. The fact is, 2014 was the year of absolute emotion_donotwant ; my partner's father died not long after my last post here, and things just kept getting worse.
Since then we've moved to be closer to my partner's mum - a ten minute walk away, in fact. For a very long time we didn't have net access as we were bunking at her house whilst we were trying to find our current residence, so that played a part of me not coming back.
And then, there's Gaia itself.
I swore I'd be here until the bitter end. However, somewhere along the line I got frustrated with how much harder things have gotten thanks to the inflation. My hopes of achieving dream items - or, ALL items - fell quickly out of reach. And eventually I found no joy in changing my avatar.
That was the final nail.
My energies these days lie with cross stitching; a long-forgotten love. I stitch mainly Pokemon because I love it so much but I do have some designs of my own and I'm stitching things from other games as well. I'm trying to make enough to sell to be a bit more comfortable in life (translation: to eventually buy land and build a cob house). I'm very much considering doing custom slots in my fan-creations store where I'm incorporating the techniques I've used in this store to create mini-mes of people for personalised pendants (I'm looking at the Pokemon Ranger style at the moment, but I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up doing Overworlds).
So ... I think I have to officially close this shop, as I'm barely here anymore. Thank you to everyone who came buy to order or to chat, it's been wonderful making so many pixels for you all emotion_bigheart
If you would like to keep in touch or if you would like to visit my stores, I can be found here:
recolor.me. The thread I've linked you to is my "showing off my cross stitch bottles" thread. Mainly it's because it's the one thread I'd be hitting up the most, aside from bumping threads
Itchy Limpet Designs: Original designs // ILD FaceBook. I made the cross stitch necklaces and the hashi holders.
Dancing Ferret Toggery: Fan-Made Creations // DFT FaceBook. Here be Pokemons. XD ALSO!! Every now and then I have a giveaway on the DFT FaceBook. There's one coming up at the start of May, if anyone's interested in winning a free cross stitch necklace of some fan-based thing wink
tumblr - Obvious fake name is obvious. XD
Thank you, everyone! I'll miss you all (if I don't see you in the above places)! emotion_bigheart
P.S.: Still learning to speak Welsh. XD We've discovered Say Something In Welsh and we've learnt more with that than with the past three years of our previous method. We also kinda suck.
P.P.S: STILL NO SHINY FEMALE EVEE. emotion_donotwant
P.P.P.S: I'm sorry I haven't made any more PokeBlinks. I'll get to it someday. Maybe.
P.P.P.S: I've bought a microphone! Eventually I'll be able to record my songs / covers and add them to the You that is the Tubes. Most likely here for my solo stuffs, but I'm thinking of making another account for when / if my partner and I record together. She plays the clari and is trying to learn my mandolin. I sing, play guitar and am also trying to learn my mandolin. XD

Croeso!
Thank you for visiting my brand new store! Here I will be making overworlds, talk bars and Pokemon Ranger sprites for you - FOR FREE! I'm only a novice at this sort of thing so I'm not experienced enough to do VS, head shots or general pokemon-player-pose sprites, but I'll do the best I can with every order.
Just for the record, I make everything from scratch from what I can see on my DS screen ((well ... okay, bar all the other PR Talk Bars; I still made those from scratch but they're not available on PR as far as I can tell - and bar the actual PR Sprites ... they're based off a couple of side characters in the game, not the hero/heroine)). I do not own anything related to Pokemon, I'm just a fan joining pixels together for fun.
I do appreciate feedback, and I love <3's. If you </3 my thread, tell me why! I appreciate feedback, and hit-and-runs are just cowardly ^-^
And finally, some additional notes:

Where all of my customer's orders ((and some other pixel stuff)) can be viewed.

. 3DS // 2938 7748 5913
PLEASE NOTE: Only showing the last 5 announcements.
4th April: While I may not have uploaded anything in a while, please rest assured that I AM working on the current orders between work and life. I've been having a bit of a setback concerning some avi's hairstyles (the hair is always the hardest part), so once I've gotten them down-pat and the current orders completed, I'll do another Ordersplosion. I know this means some will be waiting a bit longer than others even though their order is completed, but I think putting them all up at once will give me a chance to go back and touch up some things on the already completed ones if I find mistakes or something. So hang in there guys, your pixels are coming, and I'm really sorry for how long it's taking me.
22nd February: So, long story short, I'm getting back into completing orders! I didn't mean to mini-hiatus you all, but my head just wasn't in the game, you know? Also, you may have noticed I've changed the first post a little; firstly, I've added a permanent link to the PokeBlinks so that I don't have to keep mentioning it in each announcement for fear of you guys not having access to the link. YAY! ^-^ And for those who keep forgetting to keep track of what I've uploaded so far, I'll be adding the image of the latest Pokeblink after each batch of uploading I do. That way, if I've posted a Pokemon beyond the Pokemon you were looking for, you'll know that your desired Pokemon is up. Secondly, I've put up my egg counter ... okay, so I'm sharing unnecessary news there, but I'm Masuding for a shiny female Eevee to evolve into a shiny Umbreon, and shiny Umbreon is the Pokemon I themed this thread around, so it's kinda related. Wish me luck?
5th December: Bit of another pre-warning that I'll be having a day off on the 9th ((the 8th for any Americans and anyone else behind the Aussie time zone)), as I'll probably be doing something special for my birthday ((or having a relaxing day at home, whichever)). But, for the most part, going around work, Christmas, and a heavily pregnant foster cat who's due any day now, I'm pretty much back in business and able to spend as much home-time working on orders as possible! Also, I really am trying to get more PokeBlinks made and uploaded, so keep a watch on them!
1st November: Moon Pixel is ... well, not re-open, as such, as I never closed, but now that it's past All Hallow's Eve and I've got all the items I wanted on two accounts (the boredom, the boredom!), I can start to catch up with orders! Uh ... that being said, it's NaNoWriMo this month, so I may get slightly distracted at times, along with a potential new addition to the family tomorrow *fingers crossed*. Don't forget the PokeBlinks! ^-^
25th October: Thanks to everyone who's tipped me so far, today my Mega Tipsy achievement came through! Woo! 50 tips! Also, I'm leaving the previous announcement in regular font because it still applies. Sorry folks! Halloween calls!
