As the title says. But there are some things you should know before you request one.

I am not a photoshop guru. I have no official training, courses, classes, education etc with photoshop. Everything I can do I taught myself and just practiced.

Photoshop is JUST a hobby I do for fun and as a break from work. I have recently really got into making what I call my video siggys. I normally only make them for my guildies but I want some more practice, so Im extending this offer here.

I will only be making a few of these, because I want to keep them special for my guildies and because as I said this is just a hobby. I dont want to create a demanding or work like environment out of this.

If you are interested after seeing the samples below, you may post here or PM me. I have a set of questions/information I need from you. If you cannot provide this do not ask me to make one for you. I do not have the time or desire to try to guess what you want.

This is the stuff I will need to know or at least as much as you can answer:

*colors,style, elements you would like in your siggy(this is like pictures and images etc. I can render just about anything)

*youtube videos if you want that kind of animation send me link and choose at most 30 seconds from the clip that you want made into the siggy(This doesnt have to be a video you make. You can just send me a link to a youtube video you like and pick out the 30 seconds and I can make a siggy from it)

*ingame videos/SS if you want that kind, if you need me to make the ingame video lets set up a time(I can make a video of you ingame like on mine, I can also take the SS if you dont want to)

*any other relevant information, quotes, etc

* The official forums have very strict restrictions and size limits. size is 500x100 pixels and less than 195kb. Which means much smaller graphics and frames when it comes to the animated ones. But I can usually still turn out some good stuff.

here are some examples of my work:

    *reserved* for me until I can go make a video when the servers go back up.
    those are mighty awesome, by the way. =)

    For some reason, youtube will not let me upload video files I've gotten from Fraps. I've tried converting them and it seemed to work, but youtube still refuses to cooperate...T_T;
    Can I get back to you when it's not 2 AM here? XD I'm hoping to have this figured out soon, and if anyone knows what's wrong it will be greatly appreciated.

    Take your time, Also you dont have to put them on youtube. You can just send them to me in my email. Ill be PMing you it.

    Just leave the videos in whatever format they are in. I have a program that converts any video into the file I need it in :)

    Those are awesome. ^_^ I really like the first one - however, can I request a change of color for the background, dark purple, if possible? And instead of the circle the animation is in, a rectangle with the birds pushed a bit closer to it? I hope that's not too much to ask for. b:surrender They really are great...I am jealous of your skills. xD

    Thank you again. =)

    If you are still making them can I get one?

    I'd like one with the butterfly thats kinda blue-ish.

    Just could you make the word say: fishey
    All lower case and no teh

    If its a possiblity could you add like an animated glow to the word? That would be really cool. If not thats ok. You can keep the same font and background and stuff too. I'd just like the name to change to fishey

    Thanks.
    [SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
    Note: No thats not me... I stole that from the interwebs b:chuckle
    BTW.... YOU ROCK FORSAKENX <3

    I like to think of myself as a dog, I can be cute and cuddly but sniff people's butts and get away with it ><>

    I wasnt really making anymore but since that ones already made its easy enough to do to just switch the name.

    Im not sure what you mean by animated glow though? Could you specify on that a little bit more or show me an example please?
    Thanks b:thanks
