Requesting Rules

Rules of the graphic section

This is the full guide to request and general procedures on the graphics section of Krazy Programming. First a word of explanation.

The Graphics Forum is divided into 4 categories:

• Graphics Requests - the ONLY place to request: Banners, avatars, signatures , buttons of all sort for your forum and more...
  
• Self-service - Proposal - If you have some self made buttons or other graphics that you are no longer using ,you can post them here for others to use.
  
• Self-service - Gallery - The graphics that are posted in the above forum are moderated and if they qualify they go to this forum.
  
• Graphic contest - Here members can challenge others to collab sigs or any other graphics based contests
  

With that out of the way we all know where to post what.

REQUSTING GRAPHICS FOR MY FORUM

1) Remember to start with an explicit title, it should contain the general nature of your request for example : "Requesting banner for my forum"

Note that requests with invalid or non-explicit titles will be locked or deleted. Also, if you put a title like "I want request NOW!" you request won't be done ; it will be locked.

2) Second if you can't explain clearly what your end product must look like it is recommended you use the graphics commander available here :

Code:

[color=darkred][b]Nature of the creation :[/b][/color] YOUR INFOS HERE
[color=darkred][b]Creation size (in pixels) :[/b][/color] YOUR INFOS HERE
[color=darkred][b]With or without animation :[/b][/color] YOUR INFOS HERE (precise the kind of animation you want)
[color=darkred][b]Background color :[/b][/color] YOUR INFOS HERE
[color=darkred][b]Picture(s) link(s) :[/b][/color] YOUR INFOS HERE
[color=darkred][b]Text to insert :[/b][/color] YOUR INFOS HERE
[color=darkred][b]Link to the font to download :[/b][/color] YOUR INFOS HERE
[color=darkred][b]Font color :[/b][/color] YOUR INFOS HERE
[color=darkred][b]Extra comments :[/b][/color] YOUR INFOS HERE

This graphics commander will give you something like that :

Nature of the creation : Affiliate button
Creation size (in pixels) : 88*31
With or without animation : Without animation please
Background color : Blue
Picture(s) link(s) : Click here
Text to insert : help.forumotion.com
Link to the font to download : You can choose the font.
Font color : White
Extra comments : I don't have extra comments

All you do is fill the information.

NOTE : this is the only time you can use color or bold in your posts.

You must provide the link of you forum (wich can be hosted by anyone) if you want your request to be done)

It is advised to add exact pixel sizes (width and height) or at least an estimate to the final products size.
Same goes for color... make sure to specify clearly.

3) In general all members can try to complete a graphics request... but it is the new Graphics Staff job to do these requests so thier word is FINAL!... The Graphics Staff consists of qualified GFX artists that are here to help you in your requests. The Graphics Staff are moderators in any section dealing with Graphics... whether its the hitskin forum or the request column. A GFX Staff member is to be treated with the same respect as any other staff member on this forum! The Graphics Staff are also humans and could be unable to complete a request , or could take longer to complete. Give them some time and space to complete everything.

4) Request BUMPING is tolerated but under strict rules:

• Full theme requests are NEVER bumped
  
• Bumps must be separated by at least 24 hour time spans - but impulsive bumping will result in warns
  
• There are many requests to be finished so its advised to request only once per week - everyone deserves a fair chance ...please do not flood the request forum.
  

5) Request completion:
A Graphics Staff member will always reply to a topic he is planning to complete. Graphics Staff can tag their the current request (by either saying so in a post or simple adding a **tagged** sign) - which mean that this specific GFX artist is going to handle the request. After a Request is Tagged , bumping is disallowed.

6) After a request is complete it is advised to add [Done] to your topic title... then it is easier for the GFX Staff to clean up. Otherwise Requests are moved to the finished forum after 24 hours.
6a) or you can edit your topic and select the solved image to make it even more easier.

These are helpful. LOL.

Great rules!

Their official, affective immediately.
After minor modification

Lol.

There should be a forum where you could just post your work, instead of "Self Service Gallery".
I dont see the purpose of that?
I mean the work has to be approved...............

I know this is off topic but im putting in a staff gallery for graphic designers to put what they want in for all to see
