We are still on strike!



But we decided to give a little Christmas to gift to some of you. We will be doing a TOTAL of 6 banners in this thread. That will be 3 for EACH of us. Who ever posts their requests in here first will be the 6 that get the banners. After those six are done, no one else should even bother asking because we are going to say no, and probably feel really badly about it. So please dont put us in that position.

Here are the rules:
1) Do NOT bug the graphic artist about when they will be done completing your banner.
2) You must keep the banner in your siggy for a minimum of TWO weeks. There's nothing that makes an artist feel crummier than working hard on a banner for someone and they don't even put it up in their banner or keep it up for very long.
3) You must give the artist credit in your siggy for your banner.
4) You must provide us with a picture that is medium to large sized.
5) You give us the picture that you want used, and the text that you want it to say, but other than that you have NO say how the banner looks. We're artists guys. We need to be able to do our own thing. If you want it your way, then go and make it.

We are now taking requests. If you have a preference on the artist, then say so but remember that each of us will only be doing 3 each.

You got it chica. :)

Emma Potter - November 25, 2007 12:40 AM (GMT)
After half-an hour I found this, and I feel like one of those mad mothers who rushes into the store at 5 am in the morning, pushing over the other people to get her sons gift, a WII.

..Well not exactly, but still can i have a gift? Can I have a banner? I have a picture that I would like used, but i want give it until you guys say I am excepted!

alrerretta - November 25, 2007 11:50 PM (GMT)
Well I don't know how to use a banner but if anyone of you could do one for me and tell me how to use it I would be so happy. I also don't know how to send you a pic for it, but if you could just use your heart and make it the way you think I look I promise that I will use it for at least a couple of monthes. If I love it beyond beleave I will keep it as loog as I am here. I know that nomatter what I will like it a lot for the banners I have seen are sooooo good. If you wish you could use one of the dresses that I have in one of the post. so you all know there are at least three, but the one I used as Umbridge I really don't like.

Thanks even if you say no.


If you click on the dress you will see the other dress I like.

jojo37PotterTrio - November 26, 2007 12:10 AM (GMT)
*Squeals* YES!!!
I'm soooooo happy! Me Me Me!!!
Ditto with Emma, I have a pic ready, but I'll wait for the ok...
And it doesn't matter to me who does it, you are both absolutely amazing!!!!!
*Does happy dance*

dreamdancer7699 - November 26, 2007 12:38 AM (GMT)
OMG! No offense Emma and Jojo but I've been DYING for Alfie to ask for a banner and I've never done one for her! Alfie can I use Jane Seymour as your character? Pretty pretty pretty please??????? It will be made with her in a dress she's already in, but I'll try to find one that matches that kind of style. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE say yes!!!!! It will be so prettyful!

alrerretta - November 26, 2007 05:13 AM (GMT)
Dream sure you can, but I must admit I don't know who Jane Seymour is.

The fact is I don't know the names of most Actors or Actresses, so if you think that she would look the way you think I would look I have no problem with it.

I know you only have the things I write to give you a clue.

Have fun with it.

dreamdancer7699 - November 26, 2007 05:18 AM (GMT)
WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm doing Alfie's! I will do Melie's first and then do your's Alfie. Give me some time though girls cause I'm gonna have a busy week and I want them to be great. :)

Emma Potter - November 26, 2007 04:03 PM (GMT)
OMG Dream you are brilliant, Jane Seymour would be PERFECT for Alfie!
*GAWKS AT DREAMS DREAMYNESS*

<<<raises hand and jumps up and down>>> Me me me! Pick me! Pick me! And use <<<trumpets flourish>>> the scurvy-ridden, bonzai tree-killing, late great american poet himself!

Okay, just kidding. Can't wait to see Alfie's, though.

alexa_rivers - November 26, 2007 05:40 PM (GMT)
I think I counted right and I am number 6? If not and you already have six, no worries. You can tell me no. I would love this picture:

And just the words Alexa Rivers, Ravenclaw on it somewhere somehow.

Thanks so much!




ladeeknight - November 27, 2007 03:54 AM (GMT)
Dream I would like to speak against anyone anyone using Jim in a banner. I would never get anything done. And neither would you. :tongue:

And Leo I would like to request a banner from you. I may not have gotten in under the only 6 line but I the first one to specify you so I hope you'll consider my request. This is the pic I am hoping you will use: http://i.tnt.tv/v5cache/TNT/Images/charmed_pg05.jpg

and I would like it to say "memories returned"

dreamdancer7699 - November 27, 2007 04:45 AM (GMT)
Uhm... Well I'm really confused about this and honestly this is how it's going to go. In the rules we said to supply the pic that we're to use and the text. I see a few people in here havent given a pic. I accepted Alfie for personal reasons and because she said to use anyone. For the rest of you who said that you had a pic in mind but did not follow the rules and post it, then I'm sorry but you will be bumped to the back of the line so to speak, and you will need to repost this time with the pics as requested. Please NO ONE ELSE post in here if the six requests are filled. Sil, Emma, and Jo-If you are seriously requesting a banner from us, please put in a link to a pic that you want us to use. Sil, since we've never done a banner for your character and you might not know exactly how to pick out a pic for us, you can tell us who to use and we'll find the pic for you.

As of right now, our official requests are Melie, Alfie, Alexa and Scarlett. That means two openings are still available, but only for the people who follow the guidelines in their request.

Lethal Ink - November 27, 2007 05:04 AM (GMT)
Thanks, Dream. Honestly right now I am quite satisfied with just the shop banner. I haven't really even thought of a character banner. If I do, you and Scarlett can both be assured it won't be Jim. Among other reasons, he'd practically kill me in herbology class. :P

dreamdancer7699 - November 27, 2007 06:47 AM (GMT)
OH I dont think I would mind as much as Remy might. He seems to be a bit jealous of Jim, and I'd hate to see him take that anger out on you. :P

Ez-Bake oven - November 27, 2007 10:03 PM (GMT)
wow I cant believe i foud this post and there are still openings! Well i would like a banner with laughing people on it and the words Laugh like no one's watching I dont care what the picture looks like as long as it is smileing people.

If this isnt the right format, then I would like to say that it is nice of you to make these for people even when you are on strike! Thanks!

Edit: i found some pics not sure if it is what you wanted though. If there is something else you want to use feel free.

jojo37PotterTrio - November 28, 2007 12:06 AM (GMT)
yes, yes! ok, here is my pic, for Leo!

I hope that's big enough... if not, then please find a bigger picture that you like of Jessica Alba with long wavy hair...

I'd like it to say
Merry Christmas~
Love, Jojo
somewhere in a fancy cursivey type of writing, please!

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!


*Frowns at Sil* SIL! You should have requested a banner!!!

dreamdancer7699 - November 28, 2007 02:37 AM (GMT)
We are officially closed again now guys!

Once again, here are the banners that we will be doing:

Melie
Alfie
Scarlett
Alexa
Gerdy
JoJo

Ez-Bake oven - November 28, 2007 09:29 PM (GMT)

dreamdancer7699 - December 13, 2007 06:03 PM (GMT)
Here are Alexa and Alfie's banners. :) Melie you need to give me a pic to use. Alfie in order to use the banner, use your mouse to right click on the banner and a box will pop up. Click on Properties and another box will pop up. You'll see the URL address of the image. Copy the URL and then go to your signature controls. In your signature you'll use [ IMG] (paste URL address here) [/IMG]. (Also take out the space in the first [IMG].

Shonk Da 'Onk - December 14, 2007 06:37 AM (GMT)
Since I'm never around anymore and such, ergo I'm rather confused and stuff . . . Why you guys on strike?? :mellow: lol

dreamdancer7699 - December 14, 2007 09:29 PM (GMT)
You're welcome Alexa! It was fun to make! :D Shonkie we're on strike cause we got burnt out doing so many requests. I think we might be done striking once the year is over though. Melie, here's yours! I had it done yesterday but I was having serious computer malfunctions. I'm sorry it wasnt up with the others. :)
