'HOW DO I PLACE MY ORDER?' and other such matters
I supposed the fisrt place I should start is:
What do I offer you? I can do a wide variety of things, including but not limited to:
Banners for...well, anything you request, really ^.^ Note the banner for the shop at the top of the page, and if you happen to catch my signature in one of my posts, I did the banner for my contest as well. You the customer get to pick eveything from color to text to what, if anything, you want animated on it. I'm more than happy to include pictures as well, but you must supply the picture you want
biggrin
Blinkie-style animations are another service I offer. Blinkies are things like these:

(one of my more mind-boggling ones...)
or

As with banners, I will happily make them any color you want and say anything you want on it. I'm willing to include small pics in these (once again, please supply pics!) and you decide what you want to move or change colors or anything! I also make these in my free time and will post them in my shop to sell for cheaper then a custom ordered one.
Sig Animations can be very nearly anything. I animate them in a similar style to blinkies, but they are bigger in size, as you can see from this:

(this is a character I use in a comic I write)
I'm willing to do, once again, pretty much anything, though any people requested will be in stick figure form (this is actually waaay better then it sounds) unless you supply me with a picture of a person. If you choose to do this, blinking is most likely the extent of animation I can do on it. You as the customer has most of the creative say in what these look like.
Backgrounds for sale! If you have a pic, song lyrics, both...anything almost, that you'd like as your computer's background I'm willing to make it into one! I use a 300 X 400 pixel canvas for this, and it proportions right onto your desktop as a single picture. ^.^ This is a bit harder for me to get an example up, so PM me if you'd like to see sample(s) of my work in this category. As with everything else, if you want any pics you must supply them
biggrin
Bumps are so often used on Gaia, that I will make flashing, still or slightly animated bumps for you, the customer. If you supply the pic I'll put any text on you want, or if you'd rather I will animate slightly. I will also do plain text bumps where you have choice of color, animation...the whole package! These are two of three that I did for ~Marshall_Baker~ 's writing contest, Every Picture Tells a Story (which can be found
here or
here):
If there's something you want along these lines that's not listed here, feel free to ask me about it!
Your next question probably is
how do I place an order or request something I want?
Well, it's simple enough. Post in this thread that you have interest and I will work with you about anything you need!
To buy, just tell me you want to buy something, wait for me to PM you a confirmaion of what you're getting and how you're getting it, and then trade me the fee. I will then send you your animation
biggrin
For custom-made animations express interest here and tell me what you want. I will confirm colors, animations, pics and whatnot here, but (unless it makes you uncomfortable) I'd rather haggle via PM. From there it is the same as buying. Wait for me to PM you a confirmaion of what you're getting and how you're getting it, then trade me the gold and once i have the gold you'll get your animation.
