Also, If I'd like to place my oekaki as examples, how do I change them to the image format?
(etc. [img]blablablaoekakiimg.Jpg[/img])


Once you've posted your image, simply right click on your drawing and depending which browser you are on:
Firefox: Right click image -> Copy image location
Chrome: Right click image -> Copy image address

and then paste that inside your [img]tags[/img]!

Ah, good to see this updated!

I do have a suggestion for something to add - don't make all of your examples links! It's quickly becoming a pet peeve of mine, some of the hosting sites take a very long time to load, if at all. I can understand this for the large images that mess up the thread, but even the small ones are linked almost everywhere! I'd be nice if more people just displayed the image on-thread - I've personally experienced that it improves business.

Maybe that's a silly question, but can I have more than one art shop?

Yep! Or any other photo sharing site: Photobucket, Imgur, etc. Once you have done that, you can copy and paste the URL to the image and give it to your customer or you can right click on the uploaded image and give them the image address instead.

Not sure about this, but do you need more then one art shop? Are you selling different options?
If you want to start over on a new art shop, that's perfectly fine!

Does CS rules allow artists to charge money via PayPal for their work? I've had an art shop that accepted C$ and CS pets, but not money before.. Is this against the rules?

No, payment that includes real money is not allowed on CS. You are allowed to say/advertise that you take USD/etc, but payments must be discussed privately on a different site.

Selling your Art/Designs

Selling/Buying art for real money OR shipping artwork to another player:
You are not allowed to sell your artwork on Chicken Smoothie for real money.
You are not allowed to arrange sales of real items to be shipped to another player
However, you are allowed to link users to another site such as your ebay, DeviantArt or FurAffinity account to arrange commissions there.
These rules exist partially because we are unable to help if a cash transaction falls through, and also because sales/purchases or shipping would require sharing a Paypal address, banking details, or shipping information, and this is personal information which we do not allow users to exchange on Chicken Smoothie.
We will not be able to help you if a cash transaction or shipping arrangement with another user doesn't work out.

Not a stupid question! c:
You are not allowed to sell anything that has Chicken Smoothie's designs on them. Not even for virtual currency as they are copyrighted designs.
