Title: Sargoth's Little Shop of Horrors
Description: Images, Animations, Editing


Sargoth - August 15, 2004 08:44 AM (GMT)
Welcome to Sargoth's Little Shop of Horrors. Pay no attention to the large plant by the windowsill and come on in. I, Sargoth, will be offering my services to Imythess' inhabitants as they are.

---------------------------------------

Included Services:

Avatar/Signature Editing: This includes resizing current pictures and other tasks of that sort.

Avatar/Signature Design: This includes joining multiple pictures together, adding text, and other knick-knacks.

Avatar/Signature Animation: This includes the combination of multiple pictures together to form a slide show or making basic animations (like the spotlights in my signature).

Weapon/Equipment Customization: I will edit a personal equipment picture from source and place it on a black background for use in your inventory (see my inventory for examples).

Others: I might not have covered everything in my capabilities simply because it is late. Make a request and I will see if I can fulfill it. Please note that I can attempt to find pictures based off of a description but that might be subject to additional fees depending on the difficulty of locating one you like.

---------------------------------------

Format for Purchases

Required Service: (What type of editing/design you would like me to do)
Source of Pictures: (HTML links or request me to find the pictures for you)
Necessary Descriptions: (What you want me to do. Be as specific as possible so that I can serve you in the best and most efficient way possible)
Extra: (Fill in anything else you would like me to know about here; seriously, the more specific you can be, the quicker these things can get done. Same day service is a possibility depending on the project)

Please post all requests in this topic. Do not PM me your orders or they will be unfilled until it is reposted here.

---------------------------------------

Cost of Service

Typical Price: 15-35 coins depending on degree of difficulty/complexity. Only adding a block of text is on the low side while making a signature out of two-ish pictures costs slightly more. Weapon customization begins at 5 coins for the most simple items and has an upper cap of 25 for difficult pictures.

Finder's Fee: If you would like me to try and locate pictures for you, this will add an additional charge of 5-10 coins per picture, directly dependant on the difficulty of finding an appropriate image.

Creativity Charge: There will be a tiny fee of 5-10 coins depending on how little information you can give me. If you say: I want a signature, find me some pictures that look like me and slap them on a rectangle, you might incur this.

Animations: Animated "slide-show" signatures/avatars will add 5 coins per picture. More complex animations like my avatar will run between 10-20 coins. Basic animations like the spotlights will cost more due to the added work in making them, and will be dependant on that work. Since my technological capabilities dictate that I can only do so much, I will tell you when it is unlikely that I can fill an order.

---------------------------------------

Expected Service

Sargoth's Little Shop of Horrors, due to the occasional vegetation problem, will be able to fill most orders between 0-3 days. I will keep customers up to date on progress and purchases will be handled first-come, first-serve. There is a little give on this policy if your order is particularly time consuming but the person next in line only needs to add a block of text.

Terms of Agreement: Prices and dates are subject to change. The numbers given herein are vague estimates for an idea of what to expect; large jobs may require an extra day and some services might show a slight price shift from lower than posted herein to slightly higher. Final purchase price will be posted with the product and any discussion about payment will be handled at this time.
---------------------------------------

~walks slowly in hoping she doesn't get eaten by a mutant plant~ Wow, I'm the first one here. Anywho, here is the picture. and I'll describe what I wish done.

Required service: Editing a picture.

Source of Picture: Link located above.

Description: Okay, first off I want the whole picture brightened so that her skin tone isn't so dark. Second I want the whip completely taken out of the picture. Third I want the tattoo on her arm gone as well. Fourth I want her now blue outfit to be purple and fifth I'm not sure if transparent backgrounds can be done but if it can be done please do, if not a black background is fine.

~smiles~ I hope what I'm asking for isn't too much, and if it is possible, can you tell me how much the whole editing will cost. :D Thank you so much!

How's this look for you? It is transparent, the only iffy part is the change to purple, which I have been toying with. I'd like to know your thoughts.

Estimated Price: 30 coins (I actually had no idea how to change colors and a few other tricks I had to do in this project, lol).

Astra - August 19, 2004 05:56 AM (GMT)
Oh my goodness!! It looks absolutely wonderful! I love it, thank you so much! I'll gladly pay you whatever you ask! Thank you so much again!! As soon as you name the final price I'll transfer the money through The Sales Counter. ~is estatic~ :D :lol: :D

Lothlómendil - August 19, 2004 12:34 PM (GMT)
How exactly DOES one change the color like that? *cough* Just wondering.... ;)

Sargoth - August 19, 2004 03:01 PM (GMT)
In photoshop, go to "Image" then "Adjust" then "Replace Color." It takes some tweaking, especially since my photoshop makes colors look different than the web. Just have the area you want selected and start playing with hue, primarily. That will let you shift the color across a decent spectrum, beyond that, I'm still playing with the tool.

Based off my pricing range, 30 gold it is. Tip is not included but absolutely not necessary. I'm glad you like your picture ;).

Verling - August 19, 2004 03:08 PM (GMT)
Like I said in the help forum. like your sword. Could you make one like it for me by any chance?

Sargoth - August 19, 2004 03:23 PM (GMT)
Any particular theme/features that you want?

Verling - August 19, 2004 03:25 PM (GMT)
Could you put some kinda runes on the blade? If possible maybe a white crystal Like sphere in the middle of the hilt.

Verling - August 19, 2004 06:34 PM (GMT)
Sorry for double posting Sargoth. Could you make it a white sword, single blade?

Sargoth - August 19, 2004 06:59 PM (GMT)
First of all, look to the top right of your previous posts to notice an edit button.

Second of all, how's this look?

Verling - August 19, 2004 08:20 PM (GMT)
That looks great Sargoth.

Sargoth - August 19, 2004 08:33 PM (GMT)
Hehe, thanks, took me a good amount of time to put together the four seperate images to make that weapon (hilt, blade, runes, opal). If you are happy with it, the price will be 45 gold.

Sin34 - August 19, 2004 08:39 PM (GMT)
That is fine. The sword looks awsome. I will swich acounts and post in the sales counter now.

Sargoth - August 19, 2004 08:46 PM (GMT)
Thank you for your patronage! Please refer to the counter at the end of the first post to see how you've helped Angredon's Tax Shelter!

Astra - August 19, 2004 10:12 PM (GMT)
Me here again, I need some work done on an image for my avie.

I need some editing/animation done. Here is the picture. Okay what I need done is that I want to colour overlay to be the aproximately same purple as the Astra's clothing in my siggy. Plus, I want the whole galaxy to be spinning slowly. A flat spin, so you see the image at all times. I'm not sure if that is explaining it well enough, if not just let me know.

Sargoth - August 19, 2004 11:04 PM (GMT)
Yes?

Astra - August 19, 2004 11:17 PM (GMT)
The color is great, but could the rotation be a little slower and the stationary stars be deleted?

Sargoth - August 19, 2004 11:30 PM (GMT)
You read my mind, but I thought I would ask.

How does it look now? It's in place of the previous picture.

Astra - August 20, 2004 01:55 AM (GMT)
Very trippy! I love it, thank you soooooo much! How much do I owe you? :D :lol:

Lothlómendil - August 20, 2004 01:57 AM (GMT)
HOLY CRAP. That is awesome!! You are a genious, who taught you how to use Image Ready like that!? *rofl* I said that because I spent an hour explaining to him how to do it. Hee hee. But it is holy awesome.

Kore Takamura - August 20, 2004 02:11 AM (GMT)
Hey Sargoth, great work so far((I like what you did with your sig/avatar.)) but I was wondering if you could give my avatar's left hand a dark purple glow to it--basically like power pulsating from it. If you could, it'd be very appreciated

Sargoth - August 20, 2004 02:15 AM (GMT)
I spent like 3-4 hours on the avatar, so 100 gold? If you have a severe objection to paying that price, just post and we'll work it out :).

Kore, done:

The price will be 35 gold since it wasn't really hard to make after some experimenting. Tip is always appreciated, and remember, 25% of sales go to Angredon's Tax Shelter :).

Kore Takamura - August 20, 2004 02:42 AM (GMT)
ok sounds cool, just tell me where I give you the money, and I need a link so I can put the pic up, k?

Astra - August 20, 2004 02:46 AM (GMT)
~smiles~ No objection at all! The money is coming your way! You did an absolutely wonderful job!!! :lol:

Sargoth - August 20, 2004 03:02 AM (GMT)
You can pay me at the sales counter saying that you would like to give me the money. I hosted your picture and you can find it here:

Shana - August 20, 2004 06:38 PM (GMT)
oh i forgot to mention this...Thank you soooooo much for the siggy, and i really feel bad not paying you...so i would like to donate 80 gold to the Angredon's Tax Shelter! And i'm taking it out of Shaylee's account.

(BTW, what is Angredon's Tax Shelter?? just curious to know where i put the gold...)

Sargoth - August 20, 2004 07:06 PM (GMT)
Lol, Shana, for that much gold I'd be honored to make you a better signature than the one I made for you earlier. Angredon's Tax Shelter is a subsidiary of Sargoth Enterprises so you can pay me directly.

(Tax shelters are highly illegal in the United States, so it's more of a comedic tip-cup than anything else :))

I think I just removed the images I used for your signature from my computer, so if you'll link me to them again I'll get something done for you quickly.

Shana - August 20, 2004 07:10 PM (GMT)
kk just give me a sec....

EDOT: Muahahaha...the power of being carful:

there they are in the order that they are supposed to be in.

Sargoth - August 20, 2004 07:45 PM (GMT)
Ta da! It would be better but my first attempt made it over 3 megs, so I cut down the fanciness.

Oric - August 20, 2004 11:49 PM (GMT)
Ok this is what i need you to do. I need you to make me some police lights like this one. Or you might want to use this one, i dont know. Anyways im going to be using them on my foum as what they use th shield icons here for. So i am going to need one that is Off and one that is On. I think you know what size and stuf i want, basicly the size they use here. Oh and how much is this going to cost?

user posted image

I don't realy know if i like the actual light in the middle so if you could take that out or make your own version of these that would be great.

Sargoth - August 21, 2004 04:20 AM (GMT)
Like this?

Oric - August 21, 2004 04:22 AM (GMT)
Yeah but can you make it actualy look like a glow or somethins around it, like it's lit up. And just to make shure although i think you know, but to make shure, they need to be smaller and smoother on the edges.

Sargoth - August 21, 2004 04:40 AM (GMT)
Refesh the page and tell me how they look. You also need to tell me something more specific than "smaller."

Oric - August 21, 2004 04:43 AM (GMT)
That looks good. And for smaller i just want them as big as those shield thingys before each forum area. Know what im talking about?

Sargoth - August 21, 2004 04:47 AM (GMT)
Refresh again, they are now the exact same size as the shield in Imythess to the pixel.

Oric - August 21, 2004 05:27 AM (GMT)
Perfect, now how much.

Actualy can you do one thing. Can you take the black square around it off. IF you cant then can you make the color match the color of my forum. http://s4.invisionfree.com/Techmo_Undergro...dex.php?act=idx

Another edit, Could you make the off one a bit more transparent, i want the two tp contrast.

Sargoth - August 21, 2004 08:50 AM (GMT)
I took off the borders and made them contrast, refresh to see them again. The cost will be 30 gold please.

Oric - August 21, 2004 08:04 PM (GMT)
Ok, that's good, but whenever i save them they end up looking all boxy and not very smooth? Can you make it so i can save it as a jpeg.

Lilith - August 21, 2004 08:28 PM (GMT)
Wow you do very beautiful work.. I'd like something cool like all the ones you've done but my creative juices aren't flowing at this particular moment. I'd be glad to pay you whatever you want/need. :D Just if ya have some spare time!!!


Thankie



Edit: I have an idea! On my avvie pic I'd love to have the little stars blinking and the wings moving if thats possible?And I'd like to have her eyes sparkle. Just some ideas!! :D
