Introductory Shpiel

I’m finally caving and doing this post — I’ve avoided it for well over a year but now it’s time to bite the bullet and do it. As I’m sure plenty of you know I do indeed take theme commissions, and they are my one and only form of income. I’m not the type to go into detail of why that it is or what in my health and life prevents me from having any other means of supporting myself, it’s just a simple fact. I don’t want pity for it, but I do however want and need the ability to work to take care of myself. And that is where themes come in! I have been thememaking for well over 2 years now, and commissioning for just under that. Photoshop and coding are a big passion of mine, as is making each theme as individual and different as I can so no two look too much alike or like what anyone else is producing. I make extremely character customized themes, taking into account as many things about the character as I can, and striving to make each theme a personalized little world for them to live and breathe in. My themes thus far have also featured popups, hidden ‘easter eggs’ (whether they be for hover attributes, links, or most recently soundbites; yes I can even add custom sounds not in a music player) for you and your followers to discover, as well as matching promos, headers, scroll away images, super fancy asks ( x x ), etc. You name it; I’ve probably done it. There is something incredibly rewarding about making a theme that someone always dreamed of having, or making one they didn’t know they wanted, and doing so at the same time as supporting myself is a huge win-win in my book. Now, all that said, on to the information part of this post. If you’re not in the position to commission a theme, I would immensely appreciate a reblog of this post, especially if I have made a theme for you in the past that you enjoy. Thank you :)

Details

I offer themes of every shape and size, and just about any price. Contained box themes, non-contained, themes that change size from screen to screen (accounting for people with any size resolution being able to have the best view possible), interactive, minimalist, themes with custom fonts, styling, popups of every variety, tabs, the works. Anything is possible. If you approach me for commission we will exchange a series of messages, IMs, whatever you prefer and iron out the details. If you don’t have a specific vision in mind it’s no problem at all, I actually prefer to be let loose and come up with designs on my own as I am an artist at heart, but I am also fully willing and capable of producing a theme you have a specific vision for. Either way I will normally ask if you have images you’d like me to use (tho I will say not every image is theme-able, and I’d rather not use a less then stellar quality image on a theme), how many links you’d like, if you want popups, any color scheme you’d like to see, and so on. If you have no preference at all I will do my best to match the character, something I am comfortable in saying I am skilled at doing.

Pricing

Base pricing on themes is as follows;

Simple contained theme without any bells and whistles; $25 Contained themes with popups, extra styling, etc; $35+ (dependent upon the extra work; lately I have been doing some intensely customized codes and pushing myself to design new and innovative features on my themes so the current average has run more like $45-$50.) Non-contained themes with popups, styling, etc; $35+ Contained or non-contained plus promo graphic(s); $45 and up

I do not like to be paid prior to completing a theme’s code. Due to not being paid for my 100% completed work more than once I have decided to start asking new commissioners to pay a flat $25 deposit up front to ensure I get paid for all the work I do. I’ve been too trusting in the past and it’s gotten me in a bad way with days of work being done for nothing because someone ends up not paying me. I can’t have that happen again. Before I begin coding I will send you an image mock-up of what your theme can/will look like upon completion. If you’re happy I move on to coding, and only after I have finished coding, and doing any adjustments you want to the graphics, code, etc, then I will ask for the rest of your payment and have the final price for you. I can’t at the start know exactly what the end cost will be, but it has never been more than $10 extra on top of the estimate I’ve given dependent on our discussion. Some themes simply take much more time and effort, especially if you want complex codes, or require multiple changes throughout my designing and coding. The most I have ever asked on a theme commission entirely done by myself is $60.

Collaborative Themes

My good friend herroyaldarkness and I have done some collab themes in the past, and last Christmas we did as well. If that’s something you’re interested in please let me know and I will discuss it with her! :) Collab themes are generally a little pricier as there are two of us trying to get something out of it, but they are an option I wanted to at least mention. They would feature my graphics and her coding for the most part, with base prices starting at $40.

Examples; x x x x x x x

*Please note that collaborative themes are currently not being accepted. She and I both need more solo commissions at this time so I won’t be discussing anything else for the time being.

And lastly thank you to anyone who takes the time to read through or reblog this, it means a great deal to me!

♛  ❛  WHISKEY

Eris jumped as the gun clattered to the ground. She was tugging at Barbie’s arm when what they were saying registered in her mind. They couldn’t mean… Her focus was torn between the men they’d been sent to kill and her petrified lover who seemed to be glued to the spot.
“Barbie, get out. Now!” She drew her weapon and took her stance in front of a stunned Juliet as the men began closing in on them, their guns also drawn. Her eyes flashed and the rage she felt only fueled her mania.
Image
“Who wants to go first, boys? I’m not picky.”

        Finally finding her feet, the blonde ran as she was told, faster than she ever had as memories of her tainted childhood floated to the surface of her mind. Her breathing ragged as she reached the car, Juliet forced herself to hold in her pain. They aren’t worth your tears. It was something Echo had said once and she’d always taken it to heart. The blonde hadn’t cried over any of them since - though that hardly meant she was ready to take them on face to face. Did Echo know what she’d sent them into? Surely she wouldn’t have sent her if she did. Would she? 

Image

          Calming down only slightly, she realised that in her terror she’d left Whiskey alone in a room full of monsters. Fighting a war within herself between the scared child and the woman who cared too much for her lover to risk the brunette getting hurt trying to fight them all off on her own, the woman eventually won out and Juliet, hesitantly as it was, ran back toward the docks.

♛  ❛  WHISKEY

Eris’ attention was drawn to the voices coming from the ahead, trying to determine how many there were. She was so focused that when Juliet stopped abruptly, she collided into her from behind. Shooting a quizzical glance at her, Eris was shocked at the sight. Barbie’s widened blue eyes were the only spots of colour on her pale face and she was shaking like she was on a comedown.
Image
Giving her trembling hand a squeeze didn’t seem to elicit any response, so she leaned in close to whisper. “What is it?”

    Startled by the brunette’s voice, Juliet dropped her gun and all eyes turned to them. Their eyes angry at first until they recognised the blonde and malicious smiles curled the corners of their lips. They called her Aphrodite and taunted her, asking if she’d missed them and if she’d come back for more. 

Image

   Her breathing heavy, Juliet was frozen still, trapped in place though there wa nothing more she wanted to do then run.

Trailing along behind her lover, Eris brushed the loose strands away from her face and tucked the glock into the back of her shorts. “Alright, I’m coming… Actually that’s what you were doing.”
She giggled under her breath at her own bawdy humour. “But, seriously, when this is over we’re finding somewhere a bit more spacious. I can’t be expected to perform my best when we’re crammed in the backseat.”
Eris quieted as they made their approach, a row of shipping containers hiding them from view. There was a warehouse ahead and when they crept closer she noticed the blackout windows. This was definitely the place.
Image
At eight o’clock on the dot, the Battalion’s resident ‘techies’ were going to hack and disable the building’s security, so that they could slip inside. ”It’s time.”

     “We can play more when we get home” the blonde promised, a cheeky grin curling her lips as she looked over her shoulder at her partner. They’d never been paired together on an assignment ( for good reason ) and she was excited for any extra time she could get with Whiskey that where she didn’t have to almost force her presence on the other woman.

    Sneaking in quietly as the door clicked open for him, Juliet led as they moved toward the men’s voices in the distance. Though when they got there it wasn’t drug dealers they found. Her near permanent smile falling, her skin turning a deathly white and her hands beginning to shake as she was met with a room full of familiar faces and unconscious children being loaded into a shipping container.

    “Echo said it’s going down at 8, we gotta hurry!” Juliet whispered, pulling her lover along as she buttoned her jeans back up after having been talked into a last minute tryst in the back of car. 

      The blonde never paid a whole lot of attention during briefings other than to make sure she knew the more important details, so she wasn’t totally sure what they were going to the docks to interrupt, but surely it’d be clear enough once they got there. It was probably just some drug drop anyway.

    “Why won’t you ever take me seriously?” Aphrodite huffed, resting her head on the other woman’s lap. She’d accepted for the most part her councillor wasn’t Queen of the Gods, or at least didn’t know it if she was but it hadn’t done much to dissuade her from showering the brunette in as much affection as a lost puppy likely would.

She turned and caught her playmate by her blonde locks. Dragging Juliet in for a kiss, that full bottom lip beckoned for a bite which Eris happily bestowed, but when she finally broke away her gaze was serious. “I don’t think you’d have a good time, Barbie.”
Image
This night, like so many before it, would be filled with booze and strangers and every form of defilement her diseased mind could dream up. “When I go out, I get very drunk and when I get very drunk, I do filthy things. I don’t think a sweet angel like yourself can keep up.”

   “I can do filthy things too.” She promised, moving to sit in the other woman’s lap. She’d done it before for years, mostly for men who treated her like a toy, but Whiskey was different, she was special. If filthy things were what she wanted, Juliet was more than capable of giving her everything she could want.

Image

    Her kisses moving along the base of the brunette’s jaw she spoke again. “I’m not as angelic as you think.” Her wings were broken beyond repair and muddied by the dirtiest parts of the world, the gates of heaven had been closed to her before she’d even learned to fly —- what reason did she have to try to be sweet if it wouldn’t make people stay?
