The Art Bazaar has become a success because it keeps the requests and the other things that happen at The Gallery separated. I will make some things clear that you must read through, and they will be useful for you too.

 

For the Shop Owners:

 

• It is great that you took the time to set up a shop and give away free signatures for people who ask for one at your thread, but there are a few things that you have to ask yourself.
   
  The most important thing would be: 'Do I have enough time and am I able to make alot of signatures in a (short) amount of time'. This is the main thing why new shop owners stop quite quickly, they have enough of it after a week or so.
   
  Secondly: Is your style attractive to others, do you know what you're doing, and do you know the basics? 3 questions in one, and they all look like each other. In example, knowing the basics of Photoshop is something else than knowing the basics in Paint. And have you searched for some tutorials to practice on?

For the Requesters:

 

• As a requester, you have two options when it comes to making your request for a signature/image:
   
  
  • Create a new thread with a detailed request of your signature/image.
     
    
  • Browse through the pre-existing large threads for an artist to create a custom signature/image for you and make a reply to that topic with your request.

Pixel or Abstract?

 

• This has always caused some trouble. Pixel signatures might look better, and tell something about the person who uses a pixel signature. These pixel signatures are very hard to make, and take alot of time. Thats why I suggest that you ask for an abstract signature, because these take less effort than a pixel signature. An abstract signature can be made in 30 minutes, while a pixel signature can take days, keep that in mind.
   
  I'm not saying that you cant ask for one, but your chances are very slim.
