So what would a Graphics Shop be without a little pizzazz~?

Welcome to my Graphics Shop! You can obviously see my name, but I'll do the banal thing and introduce myself anyways. I am firejay1, though pretty much everyone leaves off the 1, and as the title states, I do free image modifications, banners, headers, and yes, blueprints. This is my first time doing a shop and boy am I excited.

Now. First thing's first, of course, you have to get a glimpse of what it is I can do before deciding whether or not you want me to work on your stuff, don't you?

Be aware that if I'm especially proud of it, I will add your request to these samples unless you specifically ask me not to.

1. I have no form. Request what you want in as much detail as you want, and do it in one shot if possible (please don't spam my thread with too many multiple posts if you can help it).
2. I won't look up character pics from a description, though I will from a face claim.
3. Tell me if you want me to change anything.
4. I can't do drawings.
5. If you want a blueprint, do please read the paragraph below that starts with the aquamarine text.
6. Don't expect your request quicker than two weeks.
7. I will display samples of the work I do for you unless you ask me not to.
8. Don't ever PM me for a request. Ever.
9. You may request multiple items at once, or come back and ask me for more stuff after I've finished your first request. I don't have a limit.
10. Don't ask me if I'm open. I'm always open. ;)



10sgpk2.jpg
So in case you haven't noticed, I do not have a "form" for you to fill out. This is because I don't care what you want. Just kidding. The reason I don't have a form is because I actually enjoy doing things from scratch. If you have a very specific idea in mind, feel free to mention that you want certain color schemes, images, themes, catchphrases, genres, heck describe precisely what you want in morbid detail if you like, but I DO NOT REQUIRE IT. I do, of course, ask that you tell me everything that you want (and I mean EVERYTHING), but be aware that otherwise I will exert all of my creative freedom without bounds. I love to experiment with different styles and am constantly changing, so if you give me a non-specific request, you may find that I have done something different from my old works, and I am just going to consider that my right as an artist. The only thing I will not do is look up character photos for you from a description. I can work with face claims. If you only give me a face claim, I will freely search for pictures of them. But don't tell me "I want my character to be a pale-faced guy with blue hair" cause I don't want the aggravation of trying to decide exactly what KIND of pale-faced guy with blue hair you're thinking of. Be aware that I appreciate writing samples or descriptions of your character's personality or of your RP as it helps me get a better feel for what I'm gonna do, but again, not necessary.

Unless your request is very simple or very specific, I will typically do multiple different types and kinds of the same banner or header and will offer all of the multiples to you (this does not apply for simple image mods and the blueprints). If you don't like some, you don't have to use it, just keep the one you like. If you like all of them, feel free to rotate them, or do whatever you like with them. Point is, once I've done them, they're all yours to do with as you will. I will also provide you a coding box with the links in it for your convenience, and these will include smaller versions of the work if they are rather big normally. I will put these in this thread unless you specifically ask I PM them to you for privacy or whatever, you don't have to tell me the reason. I would like it very much if you tell me if there is something that you do not like or appreciate, and am perfectly willing to make changes. I like honesty, not flattery.

~ The blueprints are a special thing that I offer. ~ I know this is labeled a graphics shop, but I will actually NOT do the blueprint on the computer unless you specifically ask me to do so. I hand-draw all of my blueprints on graph paper (one square = one square foot), and what you will receive is a picture or scan of that drawing. Blueprints are not drawings of the house or anything like that, I cannot draw to save my life. Instead, they will be bird's eye views of the interior structure of the house. Rooms, furniture, stairs, the house or building to scale. You are allowed to be as specific or non specific with descriptions of these as well, but I am not going to do more than one version of the blueprint, though you can still ask me to change things. If you want a digital version of this particular item, I will design the blueprint first by hand, then transfer it into a simple program that will not only give you a simple blueprint, but also a visual of what the house interior would look like. I use SweetHome 3D or HomeByMe, both of which have only outdated and ugly furniture and nothing good in the way of roofs, so I do not guarantee stylistic beauty, only proportion consistency.

I have a life. I am a college student of rather average grades in an extremely difficult school and an extremely difficult major in that extremely difficult school. I have to work hard to do well, and will always put my real life first. When I am not in class, I work in a lab every weekday and it is not unusual for me to get home after 7 most days. I don't have a 9-5 life, I have an 8-7 life. I greatly enjoy requests (like, really really really REALLY love them) and feel like just the practice and experience is worth it, which is why I offer them completely for free, but I can not guarantee that they will always be quick. If you need something before the weekend, I do advise you look elsewhere because I usually can only get to these requests on the weekend, if that. Since I put any work someone requests of me on high priority, I will usually get them to you in two weeks or less, unless it is during midterm/finals season, in which case I will warn you, and you may have to wait a bit longer. I can usually get simple RP ads, headers, or image modification requests (change in eye color, etc) out in a few days, but character banners and blueprints will often take me the full two weeks, as it requires me to sit down and work seriously for hours, often taking me a whole day. Digital blueprints will take me much longer as the software is clunky and slow on top of the time it takes me to design it out in the first place.


Also, since a couple of people have asked me this, I thought I should just add that I do not have a limit on the number of items you can ask for. Of course, if a lot of people are asking me for stuff and you ask for characters banners for three different characters and five different RP Ad banners, I may warn you that I will lower the priority for your stuff simply because the quantity is so large I would rather be able to work on other people's simpler items first. That said, I don't expect anyone to be asking me for that number of stuff and it doesn't worry me excessively that that might happen. Feel free to ask for more than one item at a time, and also feel free to come back and ask me for another item long after I've finished working on any of your stuff. Heck, you could come to me every month and ask for a new one for as long as I'm on this site and running this shop. No guarantees that it'll be quick, but I won't say no to anything in terms of QUANTITY, though I do reserve the right to refuse to do something I don't want to do. Until I decide to close this shop for good, my doors are open to anyone and everyone.

And lastly, DO NOT SEND ME PM'S. I ask that you post all requests here in this thread, so that I can keep this thread current and my inbox clean. If you send me a PM for a request I will ignore your request flat-out without response and leave the conversation. If you do it more than once, I will blacklist you => I won't ever work on your stuff and I also will refuse to roleplay with you outside of bumping into you in a group RP I do not GM. I will also not accept you into any group roleplays I may or may not run. No exceptions. No warnings. I know this sounds a little extreme, but this is because I like people to actually put the effort into READING the things I write when it is relevant. So the same rule applies if you prove to me that you did not at least read the overview. Yes, I know the paragraphs are a lot to read, and it's okay if you screw up here and there, miss something, ask me a silly question, but trust me I can tell when people have flat-out not read my instructions, descriptions, rules, and I deeply do not appreciate it. Don't ask me to draw anything, don't tell me you want Victorian furniture in your digital blueprint, don't ask me to get it done in less than two weeks, do not ask me if I have a form to fill out, and don't just try to describe your character to me. If you can avoid those things, we're solid.

I probably sound scary and picky af, rn, but I am a pretty friendly person, so do feel free to just ask me questions, check in on your request, or send me a PM if you want to chat. I would also actually prefer that you describe your request in a conversational manner, as it puts me at ease (the other reason I don't have a form). Just please don't spam the thread too much, as a matter of consideration for me. I'm the type who is almost always on Iwaku (even when I shouldn't be), so I'll usually respond to posts, requests, etc, within 24 hours :) Thanks!

Sincerely,

I am now super free. I won't be forever, as I'm starting school in August and and have various family events coming up through July, but you can ask me for a lot! (Joan all your stuff is low priority b/c I know it's not urgent and you chill. Hope you don't mind.)


I am formally shutting down my shop. It might not be for forever, but for now I am no longer taking new requests. Thank you so much to everyone who has used my services up til now, and I do intend to finish what I've already been assigned.

XD so polite. Yes, you can ask for however many things, be it image mods, banners, etc, that you want. This is my personal shop and I don't have any limit on the number of times you ask me for things. Do be aware, however, that there are a couple requests that have been waiting for longer, so I may place your next request on a bit of a backlog for now. :)
 
No worries if it takes awhile I understand ^^ Just wanted to make sure it was alright for me request more than one thing. I will reply what it is I was looking to get soon, working on a character sheet right now.

Ok so after this I'm done I swear just trying to build up my characters photos so she can have a bomb Character Sheet since she's an original character but I was wondering if possible if I could get these images modified.

The first one I was thinking the same thing like the first one.
- Light brown skin
- Red eyes
- Red lips
- And if you could make the white part her outfit red and the brown part black that would be cool or vice versa the white part black and the brown part red whichever works better.

These next two are pictures of the girl in her human form she has...
- Red hair
- Light brown eyes
- Light brown skin

(And in this image where the white part of her clothing is if he could be black that would be cool if not that's fine)

That's all I promise.

@Kōsaki @Enchantress

So I have a bit of explaining to do. Coming up on the three week mark for your request, Kosaki, I really wanted to apologize specifically to you because I usually guarantee a request will be done within two weeks. I have done a number of banners both of characters and rps sometimes without them telling me anything they want for it, so I initially thought that even with your somewhat ambiguous description I would be able to make do. I was aware from the start that you wanted it to be dark and serious from your tone, and the initial banner honestly was just a joke that took 10 minutes to slap together. But in retrospect I realize that in the previous cases I had always had the RPs OoC or the person's character sheet to refer to to give me the most appropriate feel, so it was my own arrogance that prevented my asking you for further clarification or the link to your OoC. Having stumbled upon the interest check you and your co-GM set up, I have been working on several iterations, and they are almost done, but before I continue I would like to explain another major situation in my life and after that ask if you are alright with me still working on them with a Friday latest deadline.

@Enchantress, this part is also relevant to you.

Tuesday, October 18th I was involved in a pretty serious accident. I tripped over my own feet after getting off the stairs and quite elegantly plowed head first into the corner of a wall, splitting one cheek open and fracturing my left wrist. I am and was still able to continue working on things because my right wrist was unharmed and as you can see, accepted your request, Enchantress, the day after that. That said, the whole ordeal has been mentally and physically exhausting and that, combined with a midterm I have on Tuesday, has limited my time and bolstered my stress levels to the extent that I have had to take a break from my RPs and any staff duties. I am still physically able to do requests, and if you both will still allow me to do so after these long delays, I would be more than happy to continue working on both of your requests with a latest-Friday deadline (as I said) for you Kosaki, and a latest-next-Tuesday deadline for you, Enchantress, with the assumption that I will not be working on any requests until my Tuesday midterm is over.

I should have notified you both about the accident when it happened and I apologize again for the delay.

I'm just glad to hear that your alright. I mean besides the pain of course at least it wasn't anything life threatening. Sounds very painful and having midterms I can only imagine the stress.

Please take all the time you need to feel better I'm not in any rush. And take it easy on yourself relax as much as you can. ^^

I'm so sorry that happened to you, i expect to see recovery sometime in the future. You don't have anything to worry about in accordance to deadline, the rp is quite slow anyways. Please take your time, if need be i'll wait as long as you want me to wait.

@Enchantress I'm going to be honest with you, turning black hair that melts into the shadows from the hood into natural red hair (dyed is possible, though it'll still be a bit rough around the edges) is kind of impossible. I can only change the eye + skin for these particular pictures. I can't change the color for the clothes of the last picture, either, though I can do all the changes for the first I believe.

Hello FireJay. I wasn't sure whether to PM you, or comment. But reading the comments it looks like people have requested stuff from the comments. And you seem really, really nice so yeah! BTW first shop? That's great!!
Anyway, onto me! :applause: So I really want a banner for my websites: 1. OPEN SIGNUPS - ~Goodbye Cruel World~ Multi Fandom||. 2. OPEN SIGNUPS - ~Claws Before Paws~ OOC & Sign-ups
Not sure for ideas, and not sure if im allowed to do two but ^^. Anyways, let your imagination run wild! I'm not sure how to describe the forums, so just please go to them and check them out. I wasn't going to bother with banners in the first place, but my roleplays haven't been getting many views, so i'd thought id go looking for somebody would like to make me one! When I tried to make banners, also, it just kept telling me that it was to big, or it didn't fit, etc, etc. And when i stumbled across you, it looks as if you have more knowledge with creating banners then I will... so I just gave up and came to you! ^^ Consider it. Thank you!

Thank you. Commenting is definitely better than PMing, :). Anyways, welcome here. My big main project for rn is to finish up Enchantress's requests, cause I've been really late on that, due to a mix between health issues and school deciding that it wanted to actually murder me, but since I have finals coming up in a couple weeks, I'll try to get yours done as soon as I can finish hers, so hopefully sometime during this break. If not, I might be a bit late about them, I'm really really sorry. The other two banners requested of me are favors for friends who don't really have time limits, so yours + Enchantress' are definitely first priority. Asking for two is totally okay, and I should probably actually add that to my info so ppl know. :)
 
I'm fine! I can wait!! Thank you so much for replying just get back to me as soon as you can about progress. No rush!
 
Excuse me, I was wondering if you could do a banner for me? My friend/RP partner/good human, RafaDark recommended you for the RP, since we were having trouble deciding on a good banner. It's an RP about Ghost Riders, and I'll put a link at the end. If you haven't heard of the Ghost Rider (a DC Comics Neutral Hero), I'll also place an image link at the end, based off of the movie. I'm not too picky, and you can even experiment if you want, but I have 3 major points I would like to get across (4 if you count the title.)
•The moon can be anywhere and any size, but it must be there.
•Black background- Black is just a preference of mine, but grey is good too, but I find that grey and black are easy on the eyes; more-so than other colors that is.
•I would like this text to be on the banner please, it also doesn't matter where or what size: "What do you think is worth trading your immortal soul for?"

That's all, and I hope I wasn't too blunt. If I was, you have my sincerest apologies.
The RP
OPEN SIGNUPS - Ghost Rider: Armageddon
An image of the Ghost Rider, just in case:

That is neither blunt nor too specific. I don't know Rafadark, so I am rather surprised they referred you to me. I can certainly do these banners for you, but I do need to warn you first that I have my finals in two weeks (and this week itself is very busy). If you've read any of the messages above you'll also know that I am unforgivably late on Enchantress's image modifications (though I'm almost done with them and look forward to finishing the last one this weekend!), which means that if I do these banners for you, unless I get them done over the weekend along with Enchantress and LadyNeko's banners, you will not receive them until my finals are over around mid-December. I know that's a pretty long time, and if the time constraint is a big issue, then it's probably best to go looking for someone else to do them. I'm really sorry.

No worries, I can wait. Even if it does take 'till December or longer (if Christmas preparations get in your way, I have my own ways of getting people to join *sinister laugh*), I'm sure that I'll find something else to do. After all, I haven't been on since about 3 months ago, so Iwaku isn't my all-time top priority as of now.
 
May I request a 1×1 RP partner search banner? I hope that makes sense .-.

I see you're probably still dealing with finals and have other requests to fill so please, don't feel pressed to complete this submission. I'm in no hurry ^^

I just want it to be feminine and pink perhaps? Nothing too specific except if flowers could be put in it somehow. Cartoon / anime images are stellar, but if you can find cool real world images that's cool too ^^ Also I like the gif ones you made, but if you can't find good gifs a still banner will do ~ and lastly words, I was thinking: "never ending circles: maura's 1x1 search" or something to that effect ~~

Thank you in advance, I hope this was inspiring yet simple enough for you to bounce off of ^^

Edit: words - "Never Ending Circles: Maura's 1×1 search (mxm / fxf / mxf)" put it on there whatever way makes most sense ~

@Sailor Pluto I usually guarantee that I'll get things done in two weeks. I kept you waiting for OVER TWO MONTHS. Even considering my finals and my injuries that's over a full month past what it should have been. I deeply apologize, and would probably refund you if this were paid. As it is, thank you so much for your patience, and please tell me if there's anything you'd like me to change so I can make the revisions as soon as possible. I apologize for being unable to change the hair and some of the hood colors, and have also provided two versions of one of them because I wasn't completely sure what color skin worked best (as I couldn't make either ideal). Happy holidays.

Well then, I wish you luck in your "endeavors." I may not be the first person on the list of requests, but all of the work you've done so far has been good, so it doesn't matter because I get to see all of the other cool stuff you've done. Good luck!

@firejay1 I'd like to request an RP banner, if that's okay? I won't be needing it for a few months yet, so I don't mind waiting for your exams and other requests to be finished first. Could you use either this or this as the background with the text "Danganronpa: Ultimate Collapse" over it? Since the RP will be a murder mystery with dystopian themes the banner should have an eerie of menacing feel, if possible.
