The Art Request Thread
Managed by: [smod]CMP[/smod] & [mod]safariblade[/mod]
​

---

Welcome to the Art Request Thread!

---

Welcome to the brand-new Art Request Thread (or ART for short) of PokéBeach Forums. This is meant to serve as a replacement for the closed Slateport Market. Here, forum members may make an art shop in which they can take art requests from members. This thread will be able to cover everyone's needs when it comes to requesting art. Because this is a new concept, please review these rules carefully before making your own shop.

Latest Update: 2 November 2011

---

Section One: Main Rules

---

These are important rules to know for the ART. Please read through this carefully. It explains everything that you need to know about ordering art or setting up a shop for services.

1. Read and know these rules
   As an ART artist, reading the rules is the key to having success in this forum. It is advised that you read all sections, including those that don't apply to you. If you don't understand them, or have any questions regarding rules, please contact [smod]CMP[/smod] or [mod]safariblade[/mod].
   ---
2. Standard Forum Rules Apply
   All standard PokeBeach Forum Rules apply.
   ---
3. Warning System
   Members can be warned under the warning type of "Custom Reason" for breaking any rules in this Sub-Forum. Number of points awarded and date of expiry will vary according to the offense.
   ---
4. Common Courtesy
   All members will be expected to be courteous to all other members in this forum. Because requests are now run through PM, we ask that if a rude/vulgar/threatening/in any offensive message is sent to any member, either artist or requester, that the offending PM be forward to a staff member. In such a situation, the offender will be warned, or in severe cases, banned.
   ---

---

Section Two: Getting a Shop in the Thread

---

1. Every Shop thread should include the following:
   ---
2. Main Header/Shop Logo
   A main header or shop logo. Each shop should have something to distinguish what their shop is called. If you need a shop header or logo, you can request one at a different shop -- of course you are also welcome to make one yourself.
   ---
3. List of all services
   Each shop should provide a clear list of all services and art forms they will offer. In addition, the shop should include at least two examples for each specific service.
   ---
4. Include forms for all services
   Each shop should include forms for every service and art form they offer. Forms may be designed to the worker/artists liking.

---

Section Three: Responsibilities of Artists

---

1. ---
2. Post Etiquette
   Your post should be presentable. We have just offered guidelines to help with that, but it is ultimately up to you to make your shop look presentable. For the most part, we will be copying and pasting what you send to us in in your application (to now be handled through PMs, please see below).
   ---
3. Shop Rules
   Try and make a simple list of rules, in addition to these rules here, for your shop. Rules that are deemed harsh or excessive by a staff member will be removed.
   ---
4. Probation Rule
   The forum team reserves the right to put any shop which does not meet up to the standards of the Art Request Thread Rules and Guidlines under probation. In such circumstances, we will tell you what is wrong with your shop and give you approximately ONE week to fix these issues; if they are not fixed after the one week period, the shop will be closed.
   ---
5. Fulfillment of Requests
   We understand that you have responsibilities outside of the forums. However, you undertook some responsibility by opening a shop. Please try to keep this in mind -- if you can't fulfill requests in an adequate amount of time (~2 weeks), your shop will be temporarily locked. For those requesting, please PM [smod]CMP[/smod] or [mod]safariblade[/mod] if the request is over 14 days old and you have not yet heard from the artist.
   ---
6. Communication - IMPORTANT NEW RULE
   Members' requests will now come through the PM system. Because forum staff can no longer see what's happening, please stay in constant contact with us if problems arise. In addition, because forum staff will be running the ART, if any changes to your shop are to occur (changing services offered, closing shop, etc.), it is imperative to PM [smod]CMP[/smod] or [mod]safariblade[/mod] to let them know what to change. This will ensure your posts are up-to-date, resulting in happier members and artists.

---

Section Four: Rules for Members Requesting Art

---

1. ---
2. Know what you want
   Before doing anything, get an idea of what services you'll need. An index of artists and the types of services offered will be included and ran by forum staff. Then, browse through the list of artists who offer your desired services. Always read the first post of the thread, which contains the information about the shop, the shop rules and the list of services. It is not encouraged to request from a shop without any background of what art they make.
   ---
3. Requesting Art
   Once you find an artist who offers the types of services you're interested in, feel free to make a request! To do so, please PM the artist directly. If the artist included a form, please try to utilize it. Essentially, this is no be no different than how things were ran in The Slateport Market, except PMing requests instead of posting in a shop thread.
   ---
4. One shop at a time, please
   If you post a request in a shop, please be patient. If it's taking too long for your liking or you are not satisfied with the finished product, then request elsewhere but try and refrain from posting the same exact request in multiple shop threads. If another shop is willing to do the same request, then so be it. However, remember that the artist has the right to deny your request if he or she wishes.
   ---
5. Specific Shop Rules
   Follow the shop rules of the shop you are posting in, unless it contradicts the Forum Rules. In such an event, please report the shop.
   ---
6. Respect the Artists
   Producing quality work takes time; please try to be patient. If an artist is taking a few days to fulfill a request, please don't bother him/her. Show them some respect and follow the rules. After all, they're offering a service to you.
   ---
7. Communication
   As previously stated, all requests are now to be PM'd to the artist. If any problems arise, first try to work it out amongst yourselves. However, if that is not an option, absolutely feel free to contact forum staff!

---

The Art Request Thread Approval System

---

This part of the Rules is meant to guide you through the whole process of the new approval system in the Art Request Thread.

First of all, PM your potential "shop" to either [smod]CMP[/smod] or [mod]safariblade[/mod]. If we think it meets the basic criteria and guidelines mentioned previously (see Section Two). Please follow the steps below in order to ensure the approval of your shop. We will let you know if you lack anything - and what you can do to fix it.

1: Read the Main Rules and Guidelines Section.
As an artist in the ART, it is important that you know the rules and responsibilities. Please make sure you read through the thread and understand them. If you have any questions, feel free to ask any forum moderator to help.
---

2: Meet necessary criteria.
Artists must be a member of the forums for a minimum of 1 (one) month and have a minimum of 50 (fifty) post count. This ensures all ART artists will be active from the beginning.
---

3: PM your request to the forum moderators.
At this point, you will PM your shop to either [smod]CMP[/smod] or [mod]safariblade[/mod] and wait for a forum moderator to either add it to the thread or deny your request. It is important that your proposed post contained all of the rules,list of services offered, request forms, examples, etc. -- we will be copying and pasting your PM to the ART, so make sure it looks spiffy!
---

4: Wait patiently.
Check the ART for a forum moderator to approve or deny your PM'd request. The waiting time can be anywhere from a minute to as long as a day. Please try to be patient during this time -- do not contact a moderator unless a day or more has passed. After the post is either approved or denied, it will be visible to all members and you can continue business as usual.
---

5: Your Shop has been Approved/Disapproved.
If your shop has been approved, congrats! From there on, run your shop as usual while following the rules of the forum. Remember, members will be sending requests through PM now, so it is important to keep some space in your inbox clear.

If your shop was unapproved, you will receive a PM or reply in your thread from one of the forum moderators explaining why this thread was unapproved.

If your shop is not approved, do not complain. The forum staff reserves the right to approve/disapprove any shop at any time. You may be warned if you make a big deal about your shop thread being unapproved.

---

Conclusion

---

Thanks for reading! If you have any questions, feel free to PM [smod]CMP[/smod] or [mod]safariblade[/mod] for more details. We hope that these rules provide a clear, easy to read set of rules and guidelines that will ensure a clean, healthy thread in which to create and request artwork, and further the artistic community of PokéBeach.

~Spammy's Graphics Emporium~
Rules​

1. First and foremost, follow the standard PokéBeach Forum rules.
   
2. I reserve the right to accept or deny any request I wish to, as expressed in the ART rules.
   
3. Always give me credit wherever and whenever you use my graphics. Always. I am not a happy camper when people steal my graphics.
   
4. I really appreciate feedback. If you are not busy after I craft you a masterpiece or concoct utter failure (whichever may be the case), would it be too much to ask for your honest opinion?
   
5. Do not ask me to add animation to anything, ever. I make artistic graphics, not animated GIFs.
   
6. I will not attempt to replicate a certain style I have used on a past graphic, unless I see fit to do so. Do not ask me to. I might make an exception in the case of banners (for my definition of a banner read the rule below).
   
7. I will allow no more than 2 renders in signatures and avatars. If a graphics is meant to be used as a background, than it is not included in this rule. Banners and logos can have a multitude of renders and images. To clarify, I deem anything that will go into your signature as a signature (A.K.A. a "tag"). A banner, in this case, is not an image meant to go into your signature (ex: a banner for a thread).
   
8. Only 3 requests shall be put on the waiting list at any given time. If you request a graphic after the waiting list has become full, your request will be ignored until I fulfill the requests on the waiting list.
   
9. You are not allowed to request more than one graphic at a time (this does not include matching avatars). If you do, I will ignore the request entirely because you obviously did not read the rules.
   
10. Coinciding with the previous rule: You may only make a request every 5 days, this is to assure that one person does not hog a spot on the waiting list. If I deny your request, this rule still applies.
    
11. If you want a specific image to be used, include it in the proper section of the form. If the image will be too difficult for me to use, then I will say so. If you can't provide an.
    
12. If you do not understand one of these rules or have another question, then PM me, Spammy.

Graphics I Offer:​

Signatures & Avatars:
Matching Avatar: Do you want an avatar that matches your signature? Put yes or no. If you just want an avatar, say so.
Text: Do you want text? If so, what should the text be?
Color: If you want a certain color scheme present, tell me here.
Images: Link me to any specific renders or backgrounds you want. If you cannot provide an image, tell me the kind of image you want. i.e. "a picture of Slifer The Sky Dragon from Yu-Gi-Oh!".
Misc. Info: If you feel you need to tell me something else, say so here.

Dragon Pokemon - Art Shop
Welcome!

About My Art
I sketch all of my artwork freehand (no tracing) and then scan it into my computer, edit it with a program called GIMP 2, then upload it to my DeviantART page.
I previously won the Pokemon Fan Art Of The Week #3 (2012) with my Zekrom: Fusion Bolt piece, created specifically for the contest.
I have a unique secondary art style I call "Legendary Pokemon Art", which displays extra features on regular Pokemon such as this piece; Legendary Black Kyurem
------------------------------
Rules
All Pokebeach rules apply.
-Do NOT take credit for my art.
-You MUST have my permission to use my art for anything.
-If you want to use my artwork, PM asking permission. I will reply as soon as possible with the answer. If my answer is yes, you have permission to use my artwork.
-Please give full credit to me when using my art.
-Please don't be rude when requesting art.
------------------------------
Requesting Art
If you want me to do a specific Pokemon, feel free to PM me with your request. If you have a specific pose in mind, please describe it with as much detail as possible, so you can enjoy your requested piece as much as possible.
When you request a piece, you have instant permission to use it whenever you want. However, that is the only artwork of mine you'll have permission to use until you receive full permission to use the rest of my art.
I'm normally on Pokebeach daily, so I will likely reply to you soon after you send my a PM. If I don't reply within a few days, try sending me a second message, or checking my profile to see if I'm away.
You can only request 2 art pieces a month from me. I have to get requests from other members done, too, so please request only twice a month so I have time for other requests.
---------------------------------
Questions
If you have any questions, feel free to PM me anytime! I'm normally on the forums daily, so you shouldn't have to wait long for an answer.
---------------------------------------
Artwork Examples
Here are a few examples of my artwork. Please check my DeviantART page for more artwork, including my latest pieces.

------------------------------------------
Banners
I also do banners using my artwork only. I will not use artwork made by other artists; instead, please request from another artist who will.
I can do multiple Pokemon in one banner if you'd like. I can also draw a Pokemon for you and add it to a banner if you'd like.
Banners do not count as one of your two monthly requests.
Banners will be small enough to fit into signatures, but n

Hello~
I’m Sky, Miss Mackerel’s assistant! If you’re looking for a signature or avatar you’ve come to the right place! (Just don’t request in the morning, that’s when Miss Mackerel is the most grouchy! XP)​

Thank you, Sky. (Now get back to work before I cut off your food supply! >=( )
This is my proudly owned shop, and here Sky and I can make you banners and avatars. But before we really get started, we should probably set some ground rules.​

Rules
1. Please be respectful. Having a banner isn’t a life or death situation.
2. Please use the forms I provide you.
3. Have all images in links or spoilers, please.
4. Request through PM.
5. Breaking a rule gives you a strike.
6. Three strikes, you’re out.
7. Have fun!​

Hmph! Of course the first thing you would mention is the rules!

How about the more fun things? Like the examples we have!

Examples
Banners

Avatars

Hold your horses though, since you’ll want to use one of these forms if you want the product!​

Forms

[b]Signature Form[/b]
[b]Height:[/b] (pixels, most of my banners are 150 pixels tall)
[b]Width:[/b] (pixels, most of my banners are 500 pixels wide)
[b]Image:[/b] (link or spoiler only, please)
[b]Colors:[/b] 
[b]Text:[/b] (what is said and the preferred font style)
[b]Matching Avatar?[/b] (yes or no)

[b]Avatar Form[/b]
[b]Length:[/b] (most of my avatars are 100x100 pixels)
[b]Image:[/b] (link or spoiler please)

Wondering if you’re the only one who likes these awesome banners? Let’s check the request list! Remember, only one request at a time per user!

[PMJ]

I have a question.

I'm looking to commission someone to help me get a lot of somewhat small drawings done over the next few weeks. They're human though, not Pokemon, and they're not banners. How can I (or anyone else in this situation) find someone to help me if they don't have a shop open?

 

[safariblade]

Well we have four shops open right now. I guess you could ask someone from those four if they are interested in helping. Other than that, you could try individuals who don't have shops.

PMJ, I don't mind the idea of opening this thread so that people can request specific orders. Do you think that would help solve the issue? I just don't want there to be dozens of posts that simply ask for a banner when it's easier to just find a shop they like and PM the owner.

 

[PMJ]

Well, the first three are listed as avatar and banner makers, and I don't need those. I specifically asked Spammy to help and he wouldn't (ditto Xous). The last one specifically does not do human drawings :3

I dunno. As long as it's clear that requests should not be made for shops that already exist, go ahead and make it happen. I'll let you moderate requests as you see fit.
