Dear Art Shop Customers...

[vxlkas]

Thanks for making this thread , everyone should read this really good thread , I've seen a lot of rule breaking around this forum , even more of them then rule following witch makes most of the signature/art shops close down one by one , once I saw a art shop and I was going to order the next day as I was busy then and the next morning I saw it close saying ''Closed For People Not Folowing Rules.'' Again thanks for making this!

I think this should also have the fact that when you order you make a commitment.
Sometimes in my shop i get orders but when I pm them for more information they just cancel. It's really rude.

I like a lot of what this say
but I noticed a couple things since I been running my art shop
one of them is links not working after a while which makes it harder on me because they will be further down the list so i don't do them right when I get them.... but if that happens I cant do the commission for a character because i don;t know what the character looks like anymore :'c

also I have been getting people who commission. don't follow a minor rule (which I had put up because of this) and just never comment or reply ever again. it got to the point that I asked for payment first in a trade or suggestion before i did the commission because I either wasn't getting paid or i'm pretty sure I was getting scammed out of payment :c I got sick of PMing people like that because I had other commissions to do so I just never do the commission because they never bothered to check back x___x

Bump.

I'm glad to know people actually read this and try to keep it on the front page. I have an art shop on another website and this annoys me.... A lot.

[DarkWolfpuppi]

Bump!
I agree. Some people who ask for commissions and/or art have no respect for the artist.

So I'm thinking of opening an art shop and I'd really like a link to this page in it. May I use it?

i have a question
is it okay to mark while an art shop is closed? ♥

[epilogue]

Personally I use MS paint and Auto desk Sketchbook. MS paint is not a stupid-low-class drawing program. I spend hours working my butt of in MS paint. Now I completely respect everything you said but the way you described drawing on MS paint "scribbling in MS paint for 5 minutes" really puts an impact on me.

I would say yes, but I think it might just depend on the shop owner. (I never minded when people mark my shop when it was closed it just means they will probably order when its open)
