WE ARE OPEN FOR BUSINESS!
Slots filling up!
(Yes really they are, so please check the individual artist slots before you order. <3)

Always Take Your Meds was originally a joint art shop owned by Dr. Koji Kotobuki and Hindoso. They then proceeded to produce loads of art, freebies, contests and event threads. The shop is mostly quiet now and many of us have moved on to other things but some of use as still around and wouldn't mind a commission or two.

My name is ATYM CHAN, but you may call me M, and I will be your host today. Please enjoy your stay today at Always Take Your Meds.

Updates

1/17/19: Koji's slots are open! He draws gijinka too!

3/1/09: ATYM is in the middle of clean up. Thank you for understanding. ;D
9/1/08: Goodbye Dan! We'll miss you! D: <3
8/18/08: Due to events beyond his control, (job, up comming school, lack of creative juice) Gabriella Ellenor has shut down his shop. He instead will find something else to do with it. Perhaps hold contests/events. Either way, he will still be around. He may open up at some point in the future... perhaps.
6/22/08: Please welcome Kaiisama as our new guest artist! Yay! =D
This doesn't mean our guest artist hunt is over. If you pm M-chan samples and let us get to know you we may still take another guest artist. (Please remember that we like to get to know our guest artist first. <3)
6/14/08: Dear customers, We wish to inform you (kind of late, we know... blame the artist) that one of our staff will be going out of town from the 15th to the 21st. This said person is none other than the annoying Gabriella Ellenor. Untill his return, His shop is closed.
6/01/08: Ever wanted to be an ATYM artist? Well, HERE'S YOUR CHANCE. Our dear Hindoso is going out of the country for a few months and you can take her spot! All you have to do is scroll down to Hindoso's post and read all the details there! We look forward to seeing your entry!
5/17/08: Since people like to be updated on things. ATYM will soon be recognizing two new artists. Some of our main artist may know these people in rl(hopefully) so keep a heads up for that! Also, as soon as Hindo gets more free time, we will be recruiting one person to be a temporary guest artist! Yay! =D
5/16/08: Gabriella Ellenor has finally got off his lazy butt and updated our "Special Events" section for the Prom Event. If you don't know, he is hosting something. And there are prizes... So up to four lucky people can win something. Better go check it out.
5/9/08: The shop is going to go through a bit of a redesign over the next few days. Not much though so don't worry too much over it. xD
Also all artists on hiatus are going to move. If Rosesthorne or Tzigana ever want to come back we will always have an opening for them(And Hindo will have your posts, samples and all). <333
And, kay last thing. xD With all the new spots opened, we may be looking for a guest artist. It's still being debated. So don't try asking us just yet. You'll see an application form if we wish to have one(which will most likely happen). <3
4/21/08: Naiyen has joined the art shop as a guest artist. Please be nice and welcome her. ^o^
3/30/08: ATYM is reaching it's one year anniversary! Woot! Yeah. xD For those of you who don't know, ATYM was originally created on April 3rd. It was very successful, but we didn't want to kill the old thread to make room for more people. So we created a new thread to incorporate all of our friends. Thus the new ATYM, but still. It's almost been one year since the ATYM name is out... And we're still kickin'. :D
02/10/08: The dictator decided impulsively to switch people around today. All we did was move all the artists not currently working to the bottom. We're most likely going to switch artists around again based on availability of slots. Sorry if we confused anyone.
02/05/2008: Hey guys, though you may not celebrate it, today is Fat Tuesday. So you know what that means dont you? You have to buy tons of art from us. xD From the staff of ATYM, or atleast Gabi, Nous vous souhaitons une bonne graisse mardi. (We wish you a happy fat tuesday.)
01/19/2008: We have been added to the Minishops Rating Center, please take the time to go to the contests post and fill out the form for us! Thank you so much!
01/707/2008: Staff of ATYM wishes all a Happy New Year. Yes, it is kind of late, but better late than never, right? Also, Mosts of the staff is either back in school or going back shortly. Just FYI. (Also FYI: Hindo is ecstatic that Jan. now has 707 days. :D )
12/02/2007:Gabriella Ellenor has decided to reopen his shop due to a total lack of customer demand. He and Rosesthorne will now be doing 'tag-team' art, well actually she will do it on her own because it was useless to do it any other way.
12/01/2007:Warning!!! Gabi's birthday is on the 4th. During this time he will most likely get extremely cranky due to his gerascophobia. Please disregard his crankiness. He says gifts are loved, but do not remind him that he is getting older. If you do, run for your life.
11/18/07: Great News!! Rosesthorne is coming to work for us! She had joined forces with our own Gabriella Ellenor. At the moment they are still setting up, but shortly they will be open and ready to take your requests. Check post 10 to see how their partnership will work.
11/11/07: We are possibly getting a new staff member. We are still hammering out a contract with her, but we suspect that we shall have someone new coming shortly. So everyone, get you purses ready for some new chances at art.
And in other news, ArynChris has informed us that we're actually the top thread in Gaia?! Thank you so much for your support!! <3
Ara, Koji's gone to jump off a cliff again. Don't worry, we'll save him.
11/11/07: Dan is taking a little break from making art. He has alot of things that he has to deal with at the moment and just can't find time to make arts. If you wish to order from him, we request that you please wait till he opens his shop again. Thank you.
11/10/07: ATYM has made it to the top two rated threads. Whoot for us!!!
10/29/07: ATYM Halloween Event Starts. So grab your goodie bags and join the party.
10/23/07: IMPORTANT! Due to some messy issues, Tzigana has been (hopefully temp) banned until further notice. All commissioners of Tzi, please direct your trades to Tzi via the account Comrade Tzigana until further notice. Thank you.
10/10/07: We finally managed to track down our final comrade-in-arms, the incredible Tzigana. Check out her CG art!
Also, the first flat image is available for purchase! Meet the first of our prescription series!
10/02/07: Takalian brought it to our attention that we're actually in the top five. Woot! :DDD
10/01/07: OMG, Angel6 has posted on our thread. gabi <3's her.
9/28/07: Somehow, our shop has made it into the top 100, which is totally awesome and creepy at the same time! Thanks for all the votes!

Rules and Regulations

- Follow all Gaia rules.
- Please start the trade with whomever you are ordering from after you place your order. We will confirm the trade once we are finished with your order.
- Please don't steal our art and/or claim them as your own. That would be just mean and evil.
- Please don't Chatspeak/Netspeak/ or anything like that in this thread. It burns my eyes.
- Please do not spam. Bumping is fine but spam is not only ugly but it really makes a certain doctor want to kill a small village. No, we aren't joking.
- We have the right to refuse orders. Especially if you're being really rude.
- We are busy people too. If we don't reply right away, I'm sorry. D:
- We don't mind if you ask us about your order, but please don't try to rush us.
- No advertising. It's against the rules of this subforum anyway.
- We have the right to use the images we draw.
- Feel free to order when the artist you want has a slot opening.
- No drama, PLEASE. (Like they'll listen)
- For the love of everything good in the world, please DON'T quote from the first page! Unless you're using the order form.
(Which you're still suppose to copy and paste, not quote)
- We have no extra posts for more artists. I'm sorry but if you ask to be an ATYM artist we'll have to respectfully decline. For now we do have extra posts. ;D

Useful Information? ;]

- Potions can only be used when warding off the field monsters but are not useful during battles with the artists. Further more, only Lvl 2 summons can be used with this field. Please plan ahead your attacks.
- Poisonwaters is head of ATYM's Police Squad.
- Dan has super powers and has more authority than Hindo.
- Hindo lets Dan think he has more authority than her, for now.
- Another of Dan's powers is to let him make rules up on the spot.
- Gabriella Ellenor's ego is really big. So just nod and pretend to agree with him on most matters.
- Sparkleing Sasafras is Gabriella's helper. But she does get around. xD

- Thank you for visiting. <3

Ordering Instructions

1. Fill out the form at the bottom of this page and post it in the thread.
2. Start a trade with the artist of your choice with the page number and something dealing with the art shop.
If we don't see a trade we won't ever start.
Example: Page 54658 art commish
3. If we decline for any reason, we will cancel the trade. If you wanna know why we decline, you'll most probably have to ask us.
4. We might accept the trade once, but we won't fully accept it (and if we do on accident, hopefully you don't fully accept yet).
When we finish your art piece, we'll pm you your art and accept the trade.
5. You finish accepting the trade and we're done. :D
NOTE: All artists here are full-time students and are doing this of their own free will. If you decide to withdraw your order for any reason DO NOT simply cancel the trade. It's confusing and rude. Please contact the artist or ATYM CHAN to inform that you are canceling the order. It's less confusing and the artists don't have to waste their time on art that goes to no one.
