[X] My Assistant

[Carnivine]

I have changed my username to Carnivine, to mock the original Carnivine. Carnivine has changed her name to Ansel! All orange text resembles this change!

Due to the now lacking of shiny banner makers, for the time being, at least, my sister and I, Carnvine and Ansel, are putting up this 'shop' of sorts. It's not the greatest yet, but we hope it will suffice.

My sister will be putting up the following guidelines and dealing with all stuff photobucket and GPX+, and I will be doing the graphics, only because she has school to worry about right now, and doesn't have time for GIMP or Photoshop.

From Ansel
I usually make the backgrounds for nearly all of the banners. Here is a quick snippet of how I make them, for those who are interested.

Banner Making In SUMO
Banner Making in SUMO 2

Please do not be rude. As a general rule of thumb, anything I do will take around.. maybe an hour per banner, until I can have enough templates to go off of. When Ansel can start making them also, they will come out faster.

• I can see the dates when it comes to creating the banners, so don't worry
• When you finish a hunt, don't forget to tell me the date you finished, and how many eggs it took
• If you need to change anything on the banner(s), PM myself or Ansel.

We don't ask to put our names on the image, as we both hate doing that and seeing it. All we ask is that credit be left somewhere in your signature if you use the banners. If we catch anyone claiming/taking credit for the banners, we will either a) start putting a watermark on them, or b) stop entirely. If you see anyone doing this, please let us know! ):



For this form, we are working on a way to make it less complicated. When you go to fill it out, select either Template A or Template B. The only differences are the sizes of the banners. Next, tell us what shiny pokemon you are hunting for. It can be up to four different pokemon. On the next option, you can either have a single-coloured background, as seen in Template A, be a mixture of colours that I create, as in Template B, or an image you request, in which we ask that you provide the URL. If you want something else, just let us know. (:

For the fonts, if it doesn't matter what we use on your banner, our default is 'Cookies', and 'Jellyka Cupcakes'. The total egg count default is 'Visitor', and we do not change. The font list is avaliable here. Please note that not all fonts shown can be used on the date text, as they aren't fully compatible with the numbers.

All italicized text is optional!

Template (Size of Banner):
Shiny Pokemon:
Background:
Colour of Stars*:
Colour of Back Text**:
Colour of Front Text:
Font Text of Shiny Pokemon Text:
Font Text of Date:

*If you don't specify or care, the star color will be the same as the front text
**If you don't specify or care, the background text will automatically be black



Aha. Get it? Carnivine? [:

Oh, set the date for October 1st. I'm starting it on that day, and want the banner before then. <

Thankies <3 I was wondering who got online and intercepted the signal.

Aha. No. You have dishes tomorrow.

[Shauna Vayne]

You've gotten better o: ish. Especially since that magikarp one xD Remember?

When I finish my wooper hunt, i'll put it in my signature. thanks. not doing the dishes.

[Carnivine]

Are you still looking for the shiny winter vulpix?

[Shauna Vayne]

Yep. Waiting to hatch a male vulpix and getting the silph scope so I can breed them myself, since I got a female winter vulpix ;D

[Carnivine]

I used that Sumo Paint program for the eevee's background. What do you think?

[Shauna Vayne]

It looks alright. I have a red and white one from Sumo. I wish it was client-oriented instead of browser-based, but whatever. lol

[Carnivine]

Like photoshop?

[Shauna Vayne]

Holy crap, you reply fast :/ Yes, like photoshop. or GIMP, even. Sheesh..

EDIT: Also, Beauclair can't spell. It's 'rule of thumb', not 'rule of thump'. Ahahahaha! I laughed! xD

Whoops. Anyways, I put up your background section and webcast link. Do you have the post format finished? And the example image? ): Sorry I suck at directions xD

[Shauna Vayne]

I put the rest of everything up while you were showering, so there. I am adding the information graphic-wise on the second post, my first one, just so it's out there and we don't get shot at :/
