I'm back.  Yup, it's true.  And I have a problem.  I need an outlet, but unfortunatly, screenshots on my laptop end up blacked out; I blame Vista.

So you're all in luck.  Much like the other fine fellow who has done this (Very well, may I add) I am making a simple request for you to post your screen-shots on here, and I can make a certain format of your choosing. 

Thanks to my ability to work with large formats and other fun real world applications, I have chosen to offer the following styles of final product. Please read the details section before making a choice. 

• A.) Signatures/Avatars/Matching Set
  
• B.) Posters
• C.) Desktop Backgrounds
• D.) Special Requests 

A.)  Basic round-about signatures.  Basic guidelines apply.  I take the screen-shot you supply, and emphasize the best of it.  I reserve all creative freedom with these.  That means, you drop the screen shot, I do the work as I see it best for that particular image.

B.)  Posters are a special project.  I will typically work in "A" formats.  You need an actual e-mail with an inbox big enough to support a High resoution file.  These are commission work only, as they are highly in depth and require much more time than the typical Signature.  Average file size will vary depending on the size of the actual poster.  Typical range is anywhere from 5-25MB or even larger.  This is a project where you get the most input.  I can advise on where to print, and recommend substrate, paper color, ect ect.

C.)  Tips are recommended for this project, but not required.  You need to post the "0000"x"0000" dimensions right from the start.  Size downs are possible, but increases in size cannot be done.  You have limited created input with these.

D.)  This is here to cover anything that isn't encompassed by the other three sections.  The "Special Requests" are done as a "Per Job" basis.  Meaning they are usually so unique that they require something special, and we would need to work together to understand and work out what you want.  A few examples of a special request are... Flash Movie Intro for a fan site, Website background, CSS style sheet, and anything else you can dream up.  I do not however do Flash sites.  I'm no coder, I'm a designer.

Guidelines

• You post your screen, The following is needed...
  • A clean screenshot.  This means the less in the background the better, if you have an ideal background, make that a seperate screenshot
  • No HUD, or UI bar.  CTRL-U I belive eliminates this temporarily, and hitting it again will restore everything.
  • No Hyper speed.  The wire frame wrap just doesn't look right when you have multiples of yourself moving through yourself... (Double negative? lol)
  • Faction screens must also follow these. 
    
  • Certain name that isn't your forum name?  Post it so I know. 
    
• Commission Guidelines
  • Commisions are to be payed only in "in-game" funds or Items.  If you want a job done (Like a forum or website) contact me OUTSIDE the forums, as those are not related to this..  I do not bring IRL business into this.
  • I am often looking for something rare, or unique in game.  There are often items that can be farmed, that I would like to have (Hint, hint)
  • I like leveling.  Stage 3 Sleepwalker boxes are win.
• Special Request Guidelines
  • Contact me Via any of the means avalible.
    
  • AIM, MSN, and YAHOO are listed under my sig.  Click the link.
  • Contact me directly, instead of cluttering up this thread. 
    

Thanks, and Get posting!

Stealing thunder?  No offence, but I've been doing it for a long long time.  Whatever then, I'm not gonna cause drama.  Do a large format print layout (With raster and vector graphics) and don't charge, see how long you want to keep that up.  Never thought it was about gaining "thunder".  As a Graphic Designer, I crave a creative outlet.  *shrugs*

I retract my offer, no drama for me please.

Anywho, I have my myspace setup to show work I've done for those of you that remember me, and are curious of what I've done with my portfolio and other works.

If you remove Anti-Aliasing you will not get blackout screenshots. It worked for me,.

Yeah, Chainer, don't worry about it. It's always awesome to see graphic work on here, and I HIGHLY doubt that your work is identical to Raz's, so stick around and see what happens.

Does this mean you get a CQ? lol

Since no one has posted an image yet:

Play with it as you like.

Recent Project - Clash of the Eras: Old-school meets Modern Tech.

Story behind it:  Most of you know my desktop has died out.  Be it the processor or Motherboard, I don't know.  So I am taking this chance to have a little fun, and customize the crap out of something.  The following is my monitor, taken apart and slightly modified (The Acer Debossing on the front was removed for a cleaner/crisper look.).

Painted using House Of Color automotive grade paints.  Orion silver metal flake basecoat mixed with the following Kandies: Pagan Gold, Kandy Apple Red, and Lemon yellow.  The clear coat is actually a matte finish, I did a test panel, and felt that the gloss clear would cause too much "pop" from the metal flake and cause eye strain when looking at MxO for hours on end -_- That last part is sad...

Anywho... Pictures

As for Cads, I'll get started this evening.  I'm a little disheartened thanks to a crappy interview today that I had high hopes for.  It appears that the place is one of those "Oh, you get all this training, then you do door to door work!" kinda things, if even that...

True flame paint job, with a custom front bezel.  It's gonna be brushed aluminum but I'm having an issue designing that part, so that I maintain airflow through the tower.  I have the sides sanded down, ready for the basecoat of black.  That part will probally call for some step-by-step pics.
