I'm saving my money for big purchases, like the one I made today. ;)

But not Aumbrie of the Clave items. :P

I'm "saving" my WGDs for RAOKs. Which basically means not saving at all.

I'd like to see Mount Thunder in real estate , and I think the items in the clave are too expensive. FIx it Jay, or I'll tell you what happened in the House season opener!

Yeah yeah, I'll let you know. :P

It would also be nice to have some other ideas as well. That way I'd feel more pressure to waste the time needed to make them. :P -jay

Well, if you are taking requests ... Vain would be awesome! (and a return of the "out of stock / limited edition" Forestal would be cool, too!) Thanks & what you have done so far has been fantastic. A great aspect of the forum!!! Thanks again, Jay...

Andy...

Have you ever gone back to the beginning of this thread? In the very first "FAQ" post...
Vain wrote:Can I suggest store items?

Absolutely. Ask in this post and we will consider adding them. Just remember that creating them is a tad time consuming so don't expect them to be up and running in a jiffy. If you feel the need to create items then send me a PM and I can provide you with the details for creating them.
Later on, if I recall correctly, wayfriend took him up and created some tags himself, although I don't remember which ones.

As far as the forestal goes, my understanding is that was why they cost as much as they did, because they were so few in number. So, don't hold your breath. I dunno. Maybe, if a poster goes MIA, a limited edition item can be returned to the store after a certain amount of time? Something like that may help the Watch retain more members if implemented...

I'd like to see a Bandsoil Bounds in the real estate area. In the Classifieds, I'd like to see some Loresraat Dropouts. And in Ranyhyn R Us, could we have some worms? Not of the World's End, or even Sunbane worms, just regular worms. Or Bandaging Spiders, they would be cool, too.

Wayfriend sounds multi-talented, unlike me. I would help if I could. If the process can be easily communicated and accomplished I would certainly volunteer, though.

LOL, I am with you on this. Some KW'ers (including yourself I believe) were kind enough to explain the "limited edition" concept to me before not long after I joined. I was just putting in a hopeful (i.e. wishful thinking) plug. ;)

Vain would be really awesome, though. He would would be my equivalent to your and Jenn's WG Ring goal. (Jay, that is not a hint to put Vain in the Aumbrie were he ever created. 8O )

Simple solution: Somebody design a 2008 limited-edition Forestal.

Hey, it works for Christmas ornaments. ;)

You know if a "collection" of forestals gets started, that it will be ultimate status to get the full set...

Here's what I got:

The entire item image is 29 pixels wide, 58 high.

The picture is 21 pixels wide, 58 high. The black bar on the left is 8 pixels wide, 58 high.

The nasty hard part is finding a font small enough to be legible. Vain says he uses a font called "antigoni", which I don't have. There is actually no consistent font used, and it depends on the size of the name. Try it at 6 pt.

The font has to be rotated 90 degrees to fit in the black bar. In some items, the text touches the picture, in some not. In some items, the text touches the edge, in others not. I think it depends on what looks best.

I do take requests. My works include "Giant", "Linden's Army", and "Covenant's Beard Trimmings".

My rejected submissions: Image
