Could I please have a banner with Wind Waker Link in a forest with the Master Sword and the Mirror Shield in his hands? I would like him to look wary, and ready to battle. Oh, and I don't want you to use any existing pictures. I would like for you to draw the entire thing. It adds to the effect.

I know Link is human-like, but he's very cartoony, and I think if you find more images of Toon Link, you'll realize that it is easy to draw, and very cartoony.

And I'm willing to wait a long time for this, so take you're time on drawing it, and don't be afraid to take a few breaks, or put other people before my order.

Thanks in advance!
Let me know if there's a problems.

Uhh...
No humans, remember? XP

But Toon Link is barely a human! And you can spend as long as you want on it...
He's the OPPOSITE of realistic, and frankly, looks like the artists messed him up themselves proportionally. (No offense, Nintendo). So you have a lot of room for error and a LOT of time to work on it.

PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAASE!?!?

For ME?

Re: Signature shop - With custom art

Thinking of that, remember this?:

Was it a test? Obviously you could have done that yourself, since you even made the background and selected the color, and uploaded it? So i guess, it was a test for me?

You'll get there, I'm sure.

Do you do humans? I might have a request for you...

Nope, just Gimp. No Photoshop.  wink

@ ImagineIt
Sure, I can do text animations. And the personified lion sounds fun. :3
However, I have to warn you, I have trouble with lions' faces. I'll try my best, nonetheless.


@ chongyian
Thanks! (phew)

Um, are you still doing our Pokemanz?

You mean for the collab?
Well, you remember what I said before? All of these other things popped up - school, horse shows, family events, our new puppy - and I forgot about it for awhile. Plus, I think you said it yourself a few pages back on the thread: the collab is dying.
The problem with kids and / or teenagers (us) working on a project is that the motivation is very short-lived. Excitement and inspiration comes and goes, and most of the youth these days can only focus on one thing at a time, generally. I found another collaboration and I thought, "This is a nice arrangement. I'll have a little variety in my work, now that I'm in two different collabs."
As you can imagine, it didn't work that way. I joined more collabs and soon, I had to switch my focus continuously because I had assignments coming at me from all directions. It just wasn't fun anymore, but I didn't want to disappoint the friends that I'd made, so I kept working.
After a while of working like this, nearing the end of summer, something came up, and I had to leave Scratch for a while. When I got back on, the amount of work I had waiting for me was staggering. I decided that I simply could not keep up with the workload anymore, and so I narrowed my focus down to the collabs that were most important to me: Phoenix Productions and the Land / Sea collab.
If you look somewhere near the top of this text wall, you'll find me blabbing on about how we have such short attention spans. This also applies here.
(My fingers are getting tired from typing, so I'm going to spare your eyes and summarize a bit.) My focus gradually shifted from the Pokemon collab to Phoenix. I'm not sure why; I guess it was just because you guys were starting to get inactive, too. Later - as you know - bey started the Scratch Comedy animations, and I couldn't help but get involved in that. But then, almost simultaneously, the members of Phoenix and Half Way There started dropping off. Now, I'm actively involved in my sig shop (this) and the Scratch Chatter, and I contribute to the Land / Sea collab whenever it's relevant.
I guess my point is, collabs are like the tides. Some days they last for hours, other times minutes, but they all come and go, eventually.
With any luck, the tide for the Land / Sea collab will be longer than the time it takes to read this post.  tongue

I see your point about our attention spans. By the time i got to the end i forgot what i was reading about XD But yeah sure, i see what you're saying.

I did. I was talking about saving files as .psd, which is the file used by Photoshop. I use Gimp but I can save as .psd. I just assumed that it was more likely that you used Photoshop than you did Gimp, as not that many people know about it, so I said photoshop files instead of Gimp .xcf files to save myself from having to explain.
But I guess that, in the end, that did nothing as I am now explaining it to you.  tongue

I always upload as .png, but when you save as .psd, .xcf, and I believe .tif, you can access the layers and edit the picture that way. (These aren't the only file formats that support layers, these are just the ones that I feel like typing X] )

Thanks for that, but I don't really need bumps right now. I'm not accepting orders, and even if I were, I'd get them quickly enough. ;D

But kind of creepy.

I bet someone just accidentally (or on purpose, for the lulz) just put a rock on the F5 key, or something.  tongue

Hi! If you are still doing these requests, I would like one with the sprite of Cube Man, aka this guy: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/bobthejoe68/2764531,
and the background to be lime green. If you could, on the right add "bobthejoe68, scratching since 2009." Thanks  smile
