Hiya! Welcome to "Eureka"!

Before I say anything else, let me clarify...

There is a shop exactly like this, run by me, in the MiniShops forums. I started it there because I was also selling pixel plushies.

You do not have to pay for anything here!
That's why it's in here too!
I welcome and accept donations for the idea's I give out, but it is not mandatory to pay. Just nice. mrgreen
Any and all donations I receive will go towards starting a Quest Charity.

So! Now that we have that out of the way, let me go on to explain this thread!

I have an entire book full of ideas for Gaia Shops that I will likely never use and I hate that they're just wasting away on note book pages when someone could be bringing them to life!

So in the next post is a form, if you'd like an idea from me, fill it out and I'll see what I can do for you!

THIS IS NOT WHERE YOU COME TO GET YOUR ART PRICED
Please do not post things for me to price. I will not price them.

Also, I am not the last word in advice. Please feel free to ask me for advice, but also make a thread for it in the main forum! I am offering help because I like to, not because I think I'm better at it then anyone else.

RULES

Unfortunately we have to have rules...

1. DO NOT get mad at me if I give you an idea that you don't like. I try my best to find something that fits, but it isn't always perfect. Please remember that I'm working for you as best I can.

2. I may not be able to respond right away. I have other shops on Gaia that I run and an outside life too. Please be paitient!

3. Please do not request more then one idea for free. If you want a second idea, great! But it would be awesome if you donated something to me for another idea. If you really need a second idea but don't have anything to donate, drop me a line and I'll see what I can do.

4. Credit is not absolutely necessary in the shop you make. But if you do credit me with the idea and link me to your shop, I'll probably buy something!

5. If you need further help setting up your shop and getting things started, let me know! I may charge you a SMALL fee or I may not. But you can always ask!

HERE'S WHAT TO DO!

Want a Shop Idea? Please Fill Out This Form!

Username:

Do you want a Breedable/Staged Pet Idea?:

Do you want something for the main Mini Shops Forum?:

Should it be animal or people related?:

Will you have to buy lineart for this?: (This is so maybe I can point you to someone who can do lineart for a fee for you!)

Should it have a Role Playing option?:

Should it have an indepth story line?:

On a scale from 1 to 10 (1 being 'not much' and 10 being 'TONS') how much time and effort do you want to put into your shop?:

Are you in this for the gold? Or are you in this for the fun and creativity?: (Nothing wrong with it being about the gold! I just need to know!)

Should it be pixel based?:

Should it be about Gaia Avatars?:

Should it be something other then drawing?:

Anything else you'd like to add that I should take into consideration?:

POST THIS IN THE THREAD! DO NOT PM IT TO ME I WILL NOT RESPOND!

Do You Need Shop Help?

I decided to add this in just because. All of the people in the Help Forum are great with giving advice and by no means do I think I'm better then ANY of them.
But I thought I'd offer it anyways. smile

If you need help because you think your shop isn't doing well, post (DO NOT PM) me a link to your shop and I'll look around. All of my answers to these queries are very long and very detailed. No one liners or single suggestions.

Again, this is not something I expect you to pay for which is why it's in this forum. If you want to send me a donation you can and I will be very very grateful! But you absolutely do NOT have to.

This is neat! -^^- My shop`s pretty boring, so I`d like some ideas for a new/better one, hope you`ll be able to help. *bows politely*

Username: bleached

Do you want a Breedable/Staged Pet Idea?: Nope.

Do you want something for the main Mini Shops Forum?: I think so.

Should it be animal or people related?: People. M`hmm.

Will you have to buy lineart for this?: (This is so maybe I can point you to someone who can do lineart for a fee for you!) Nuh - uh. I`m my own artist.

Should it have a Role Playing option?: Option, yes. Mandatory, no.

Should it have an indepth story line?: Whoa, never thought of this! Sure, that might be fun. But if you can`t think of one, that`s okay.

On a scale from 1 to 10 (1 being 'not much' and 10 being 'TONS') how much time and effort do you want to put into your shop?: 9 I think, since I want it to be my main shop.

Are you in this for the gold? Or are you in this for the fun and creativity?: (Nothing wrong with it being about the gold! I just need to know!) Well, I`m questing for horns of the demon, so I really want some gold right now( 23k/70k! ). Gotta` make it fun though. :3

Should it be pixel based?: Nah, can`t do those.

Should it be about Gaia Avatars?: Yes.

Should it be something other then drawing?: As long as you include drawing as the main factor.

Anything else you'd like to add that I should take into consideration?: *nods* I`d like you to give a few suggestion names for the shop! I really can`t think of any.

Hm. Well that`s all, I`ll check back in later. *wave*
