[X] My Assistant

[Arceus Awakened]

Hello, and welcome to Button Masher! I have recently discovered the wonders of button making, and so I wish to share it.

Rules
USE THE FORM
I make 88x31 buttons exclusively. Please do not waste everyone's time by asking for another size.
Please don't request if the slots are full.
Follow all rules of GTS+ at all times.
Please don't rush me - though buttons may not be the hardest thing ever, I do need time for other stuff. Even if said other stuff is mostly internet.
If you read this, put a Deoxys in your post somewhere - it would be but they had to go to a meeting.
Breaking a rule gets a strike. One is a day ban, two is a week ban, three is a permaban.
Don't forget to give credit! Or I poke you with a spork :I

Not a rule in itself, but a thing to be aware of - I often work with smaller sprites, such as those from Ranger, meaning that not all sprites are available in the easiest format to use. However, I can still attempt to make a button, just part of the Pokemon will be obscured.
If it does happen that I am unable to make a button with any sprites on the archives, I may attempt a scratch sprite, however in this sizing it may not be possible - if so, I'll send you a PM and you can rerequest via a reply regardless of slots.
Experience tells me this is unlikely, though!

Examples



Form
Button Text: (It doesn't have to have text, but most would)
Pokemon to Use: (Now you could have a banner with nothing, but that's just silly. Up to two permitted, they can be the same or different species! I can also use trainer/non-Pokemon sprites, see later on...)
Pokemon Details: (Normal, shiny, or anything else?)
Specific Sprite?: (Use this if you know either the specific sprite (make sure you link it), or the game you want the sprite to be from (linking not necessary) and I will try my best to make it work~ If using a trainer/non-Pokemon, link me to the sprite unless it's something common like a Goomba!)
Other Specifics?: (Put any other details here - maybe you want a different top edge to the norm, or the text to be in a specific corner?)
PM upon completion?: (Could be useful for when I get multiple requests at once, or have to afk in the middle of one. X3)

Slots
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

Strikes
None! Yay!

And that's it for now - happy button mashing!

(Any sprites not on Bulbagarden Archives were most likely obtained from TSR, so credit to their respective rippers. Now if only I knew how.)

[Umbreon Master]

Button Text: Shadow Umbreon
Pokemon to Use: Umbreon
Pokemon Details: shiny
Specific Sprite?: no
Other Specifics?: nope
Will more likely be requested?: Maybe I think so

[Arceus Awakened]

Button Text: Shadow Umbreon
Pokemon to Use: Umbreon
Pokemon Details: shiny
Specific Sprite?: no
Other Specifics?: nope

Alright, I'll work on that now~ To the Umbreon sprites!

Edit: And done!

I only just realised how short a time these can take if I know there's a good sprite available. This was my first time on a Conquest sprite, too~ Just it had more shades than the shiny Umbreon sprite I picked colours from, so I had to improvise a little. I do like the Dodge/Burn tool.

Alright - I'll work on that, then I'm going to sleep x3 So I'll do any others that get requested after in the morning...more likely afternoon, I don't have to get up XD But I'll work on that now

Edit:

CODE

I liked this one. Used the sprite from the Emerald intro - this is also the first example of ones that don't include the full sprite. X3 Really like that, though~

*looks at topic longingly* I need a banner... I want a banner... Knowing my personality, I will be denied a banner... I can try! (I hope...)

Button Text: Legend's Clan
Pokemon to Use: Charmeleon
Pokemon Details: Dark red color, please?
Specific Sprite?: Nuh uh, choose the easiest.
Other Specifics?: Not that I know of...
Will more likely be requested?: Yes. Probably.

Thank you's in advance! Also, what is ? I don't know what is. Please inform me on the meaning of .

Why would I deny you a banner for no reason? X3
I'll go work on that, using the best dark red I know - Shiny Duskull!

And a Deoxys is a mutated space virus. X3

Edit: Duskull red really fits Charmeleon, I think.

Don't know why I even needed the slots list XD Ah well, I'm sure I'll need it eventually, if I come to two or more requests or have to go afk for the day or something.

Oh, and I'm adding another bit to the form - anyone after this needs to fill out the extra question. X3

Button Text: Joltik Lover

Other Specifics?: Text between the two sprites, lightning background if possible
Will more likely be requested?: Maybe

Here, have a =)

Oh, good idea about the spritesheet - I should link there as well, Bulbagarden doesn't have everything. *cough*Ranger Arceus*cough* I'll go work on that now

Edit: Conquest sprites have so many shaaaaades blargagh
Thank Arceus for the Dodge/Burn tools in GIMP...

Despite the pain it was, and that I kept having to stop for eggs hatching, I do like this one.

Wow, this is awesome (and not just because I love Joltik xD) Best background so far. Thanks so much <3

Edit: And thanks for the extra work on the shiny sprite^^

Button Text: Umbreon Visionary
Pokemon to Use: Umbreon
Pokemon Details:no
Specific Sprite?:no
Other Specifics?: no
Will more likely be requested?: maybe
PM upon completion?: yes

Do you do fake pokemon?
This is getting a little popular

[Arceus Awakened]

Yes, I do, though it'll require a bit of scratch spriting so might take longer. I'll go sort it now though~

(I apologise for the delay, my internet was down or this would have been done earlier.)

Edit:

Hmm, Umbreon doesn't take as long due to the lack of much change for the shiny. This is a good thing. The paw and bandanna were somewhat infuriating, though, due to the sprite size - but it worked!

Button Text: Charizard Rules!
Pokemon to Use: Two Charizards
Pokemon Details: 1 normal and 1 shiny.
Specific Sprite?: No
Other Specifics?: No
Will more likely be requested?: Maybe, unsure yet but just maybe

Oooh, Charizard will have a lot of sprites to choose from. I'm on it~!

Edit:

Now this one was somewhat infuriating. I blame the Ranger sprite. Decided to use a gradient background here to see how it turned out, think it works X3

Thanks!It looks so cool!

[Arceus Awakened]

You're welcome

I'm working on a list of locations each Pokemon has sprites for personal use - when I finished, there should be a lot more variety as I can go find special sprites like Torchic from the Emerald intro~ Plus Bulbapedia only has /one/ sprite per game in a lot of cases, annoying in the case of Mystery Dungeon etc.

Means you can request from a particular game without finding a link, too, I can look up the spritesheet.

These buttons are pretty They don't look as big as 88x31, but they are...

Anyway I'm going to order some which I may use to replace some links in my signature. Just need to figure out what they'll be.

EDIT: Oh, I love the shop name, very creative.
