But if everything gets clogged on one page. Can you make a post somewhere else
Like if I want to show them something else related to the shop, where can I make that other place? ..(If I can)


I think for that case you make "reserved" posts after your first main post, so that you could expand later on if needed, and only then let other people post something. Like

(1. Post) "Art Shop"
(2. Post) "Prices/etc."
(3. Post) "reserved"
(4. Post) "reserved"
(5. Post) "Everyone can post now :)"

. If thats what you mean.

Lime-Snak, I have a shop that takes up two threads. One is the acctual shop (in CS Trades - Pets for art/Art for pets) and one is the archive of past orders (in Share your art). The archive was to big to fit inside the shop so I put it in a separate thread. Was it something like that you had in mind?

I have a question. I've recently started using brushes from DA users in my work. What would be the best and most efficient way to credit them?

Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.

I guess uploading the picture on DA and crediting them per link in the description. Thats how I do it. But no idea if thats the right way to do it, better wait for a few more opinions.

Okay, thanks for your input. I was also wondering, should I post something in my art shop like "Credit for brushes goes to ... and ..." and so on? Or would just giving them credit on DA be enough?

Yeah, I'd appreciate several opinions on this. Also sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, I don't want to spam up the thread :?

If you want to create the DA artist for the brushes you are using, the best way would be linking back to the page where you downloaded them from. That way it shows who and where you got them from. :)

you should put that you should try not to be to over friendly, the people who order from you don't instanly became your, 'BFFS' because they brought a piece of art of you. It can sometimes scare people away.
leaving cs, sorry but im really into drawing now, and i spend all my time drawing.[/color]
