Hey, forum! Welcome to my graphics shop; Meticulous Concepts! I've been making avatars, signature images, desktop wallpapers, and other various images for about 2 years or so now; I'm by no means the best, but I'd like to think that I've got some skill in the graphic design field, and I can assure you that I'll put my time and effort into getting you a badass graphic that you're going to love.
How to Request a Graphic:
Requesting graphics from me is really quite simple; all that you have to do is post, or PM me the following information, and I'll get started to work as soon as possible!
1. The Design Type: are you looking for an avatar, a signature image, a desktop background, an HD cell phone background, etc. 2. The Design Theme: give me a general idea of what you want your design to look like, and any specifics that you'd like present (graphics). 3. The Design Size: by default I make my graphics a certain size; those sizes are listed in the next section, and if you require a different size, I need to know the exact size that you would like. 4. Anything Else: any colors that you'd like, motto's, slogans, names, etc. that you would like present in the design.
About My Graphics:
Here is some general information about how I put together your graphic(s).
1. Adobe Photoshop CS5 is my main graphics program, however I do have a few others that I use if necessary, such as Adobe Illustrator. 2. Finished graphics will be rendered as PING files (.PNG) as opposed to a J-PEG (.JPG) which will lose some of it's quality once the file is saved. Avatars will be rendered 100 x 100, signature images as 450 x 175 or 450 x 150, and desktop wallpapers as 1024 x 768 unless otherwise noted or requested. 3. I will first brainstorm a few different ideas and send them to you; you choose your favorite, and I get started on it immediately. Once the graphic is finished I will send you a proof, and if any changes need to be made I will make them and send another proof to you. Once you are satisfied I will add the finishing touches and give the graphic a once-over and post the final copy for your use. 4. Depending on how busy I am in my personal life, and with other graphics, it may take a couple of days for your graphic to be finished, so please be patient; I will keep in regular contact with you to keep you updated on the wait time.
How to Use a Graphic:
Here is a tutorial on how to use a graphic that I have designed for you.
1. Once you find your graphic, you have 2 options; you can save the file to your computer and host it yourself on Photobucket, Imageshack, Flickr, etc. or you can copy and paste the link for the graphic as it is, hosted on my designer Photobucket account. I will never delete your image, and the link will always remain active, so you are safe to use it that way if you'd like. 2. If you choose to use the graphic as it is (hosted by myself), then all that you have to do is use the IMG URL link that I post along with your design, and paste it into your signature box.

Yeah, I can get something made up for you; I'm about to head to bed though, so I'll get started on it in the morning (along with Ryan's signature).

Ryan, I sent you a PM regarding your signature graphic; please respond to it so that I can continue the design. Thank you!
Monkey, here is your avatar. If there are any changes that you would like, please let me know. Otherwise, let me know that you like it, and enjoy!
Just save it to your computer and then upload it. You can also direct link it if that option is present (just remove the [IMG] tags if you direct link it).

Here's what I came up with, Artillery. I hope you like it. Any changes that you'd like, please do let me know, otherwise I hope you and your clan enjoy it!
[*IMG]https://2img.net/h/i800.photobucket.com/albums/yy281/MeticulousConcepts/Black%20Ops%20Forums/BrothersinArms.png[/IMG*] [COLOR="DarkOrange"]Remove the *'s from the [IMG] tags, then copy and paste the URL directly into your signature box. Also, save a copy of the graphic to your computer for safekeeping.
