Scratch

yes! I'm finally a scratcher!
Now I can use the sig you made me, Zangooser

Bad news. Go ahead and read...



I've put my heart and soul into this shop, I gave every ounce of energy I had to make this great, but nothing lasts forever. My life is too full, I really can't take much more. I've told you guys time and time again, and I know that sometimes it's hard to believe, but I literally put hours' worth of work into every signature I make. With school, I've got assignments coming at me daily from seven different teachers, and once I've finished everything from civics to French, there's no time or energy left for anything else. I hadn't anticipated just how different my teachers are this year - ruthless, I tell you! I get home at four o'clock from school, I let the dog out for a few minutes, and then get started on my homework. I usually finish around seven or eight o'clock. Then it's dinner, shower, packing lunch, repacking my backpack, helping my little sister with her homework, and then it's off to bed so that I can get up at six to start another day. There is no way for me to make time for banners unless I push something else out of the way - homework, dinner, banners, art... I can't have everything. There's just no way.
I'm sorry for letting you guys down, please don't think of this as being because of your orders. I want to thank you guys for putting up with my absences, for waiting and waiting when requests were closed, and accepting my banners, even if they were terrible. I'm not terribly happy or proud of my decision to close the shop, but it's just something I have to do. Hope you all understand...




It's kind of bittersweet, but I think that this is going to be the last time for a long time that I use my little announcement banner. I'll try to make it count.
The shop's going to be closing soon. I'm going to try to finish all of the banners on the waiting list before I close the requests for good, but I can't make any promises.
I want you guys to remember that this isn't really the end of all Zang banners, just that I can't do anymore regularly until... maybe June? It's likely that I'll start a new shop fresh in the summer. Until then, heh, maybe you guys could turn the ones I've made into collectables or something. "Limited edition signatures - with or without someone's username on them." I can see it now.
Back on topic, I'm going to miss this shop... I mean, look at all of the stuff we've achieved together! 23 pages! 44 signatures! Over twelve thousand views! Heck, we almost got a website up and running! I'm pretty proud of this shop, it's almost like an old friend, but, you know... sometimes friends have to move away to Zimbabwe or something crazy like that. I'm just glad that I got this opportunity: to open up a shop, to get to know the people on Scratch, to show what I can do, and, yes- to struggle a little bit as well. Serving so many people by doing what I love has made the past three months so amazing, and I have a lot to take away from this experience, so that I can go on and do better next time.

Thanks for ordering. You guys all rock. <3

Um... You could report for the title to be changed to 'now closed', but still bump it regularly when you have time to keep it on the first few pages...

No need for my signature anymore. By the way, you're still on scratch, right?

Just wait, I'm pretty sure Angelica will be able to fill your order.

And for mine, I'm about to post a pic and you could just resize it and stuff...

Alright, I can do that. 
(I can't do anything crazy though because I've got a Geometry project due tomorrow that isn't finished. XC )

Meh, just this once...
And don't worry about Angelica. She's a good artist, but when she has a bad day, she tends to bring some of it to Scratch. XP I don't think she wants to be mean, I just think she's upset and wants to be left alone.
As for the guns crossing... I'll try, but no promises. And what will this be for? I'm curious. 

Ok.
Ok.
And it's a Roblox ad.  For a non-war group, but... a group.

Man, those guns took me FOREVER. Look at how they are now, and compare them to what they originally looked like:

No, I totally understand the weapons part. Personally, I'm not a big fan either, but I'm willing to include them as long as it's appropriate, meaning, the weapons are not being used to or suggest the harming of others. 
And as for the joke, yeah, kinda mean. But I'd say that 95% of the people who use the internet even only once a month have said or posted something they regret doing.
Live and learn. 

The US seal has weapons, but also olive branches, like mine.
