𝑰𝑵𝑻𝑹𝑶

ahh yes, it's back. but not without heavy heavy editing and major changes.

I took out a lot of old graphics and will simply be publishing over old chapters until I run out of them. some of the chapters will be dedicated to displaying older graphics that I still somewhat like, but for the most part, I'm just going to be publishing new graphics in older/previously-published chapters.

so don't be alarmed if you see comments from 2018 or 2019 on recently published chapters,, it's just a byproduct of me republishing old chapters.

𝑭𝑨𝑸

- how long have you been designing? since may of 2014, so over six years at the time of me writing this. I have gone through many different graphic styles in that duration of time, some better than others. I usually stick to fantasy, sci-fi, or dark teen fic the most.

- what app do you use to design? I use photoshop cc 2020. and no, it's not an app, it's a paid application that you have to buy a monthly subscription for each month from adobe. you have to access it from a pc or mac as well.

- what hardware do you have? I have a 2016 cyberpower pc windows 10 desktop that I run photoshop on. I also have a 2010 dell laptop that I run photoshop on for when I'm out of town. for help with drawing hair and small details, I have a wacom intuos pro medium tablet that was gifted to me for my birthday (no, I don't know how much the tablet costs).

- what can you design? I can design anything from covers to manips to icons to story banners. I can also design anything video editing-related from opening credits to trailers. I typically tend to stick to covers and opening credits though. recently, I've been trying to learn digital art and to make graphics that are start-to-finish drawn by me, however, it might be a while before I start posting those types of graphics on here.

- are you ever going to post tutorials on how you do certain things? most likely, no. I've spent many, many years developing a style that I'm proud of with techniques that have become uniquely my own over time. and as much as I inherently want to help others, I'm probably not going to be giving away any tips on things I consider unique to my own style/graphics.

- are you open to doing collabs? yes, I am actually! if you want to do a collab, feel free to comment here or pm me. I don't bite (unless you're an asshole lol).

- are you going to post premades that can be claimed? probably not. I tend to only make graphics that I know will be used or at least appreciated for myself and others, and a lot of times premades go unclaimed.

- are you going to do commissions? at some point in the future, maybe. I've been leaning more towards copyright free images as of recently, but it's still a big jump I'm not quite ready for for now.

- are you available for custom covers? my shop is noncommittal, but yes, when it says it's open, it's open. when it's closed, it means I'm not in the mood to make any requests, so don't comment anything, because I will ignore it.

𝑹𝑼𝑳𝑬𝑺

as with any semi-organized mess of a person, I have rules.

- the shop is now noncommittal, meaning I won't be telling you if you were accepted or not. to make sure that you see the chapter if I make your request, add this book to your library, and check for tags in your notifications feed, or an email from wattpad in your mail inbox (I've had problems with this in the past so now I'm really annoyed at wattpad's tag system).

- your request will not be made automatically since I have a life outside of wattpad. I will try to make your graphic or video edit within a week. if it is not made within a week, feel free to pm me to chat. just don't be rude about it or I can and will change my mind about your request.

- I have the right to deny your request. don't be offended by it or take it personally. my inspiration is incredibly fickle, and I don't want to give a requester a graphic that looks ugly.

- if you choose to use celebs, they must have usable clips or photos. this a must. if you choose not to include celebs, descriptions will help and I will do the best I can without any celebrities.

- no anime or cartoon style requests. it's not a style I'm very good at and I'm not in the mood to deliver a badly made cover to a requester.

- you are only allowed to request one graphic at a time or one opening credits/trailer at a time unless you are a vip.

- if you request a set of opening credits or a trailer, it will only be uploaded to my youtube channel and nobody else's. because I made it, and common sense, and all that.

- book must be published unless you are a vip.

- use the cover for at least a month. if are not going to use the cover, please let me know. I will put it up to be a premade.

- failure to claim a graphic that you requested (as in you don't even bother commenting on the chapter it's posted in) will result in you being blacklisted. failure to give credit will result in being blacklisted. undoing the payment after I have given you the link to your cover or made your opening credits/trailer will result in you being blacklisted. it's 2020 and I am tired of dealing with clowns.

- shop hopping is a big damn nope. it's self-explanatory why considering I can spend anywhere from an hour and a half to six hours on a single graphic.

- password is asot. include password in the 'anything else' section.

𝑷𝑨𝒀𝑴𝑬𝑵𝑻

- permanent follow + adding one of my original stories (not a fanfic) to a public reading list.

- for opening credits and trailers, a 5+ honest comment on my book, the griffin syndrome on top of the payment above.

- if you're a vip, there is no payment other than crediting me. (:

non-vips should notify me if they plan on using their requested item. if you plan on using it, you must complete the payment after I publish it in the shop. once you have completed the payment, I will then send you the link to your graphic.

for opening credits, failure to complete payment will result in me taking the video off my channel until you do complete the payment. if you never complete the payment, you'll never get to see your opening credits again oop ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
