Part 1
1. Introduction
Congratulations you found the creativity section! Step right up and get a sig from a shop. Wait a sec, I have to give you a render? What the heck is that?!?!?!?! Not to worry, this guide will explain everything you need to know.:D
2. Shop owners rules and requirements
As you are reading about their shop there is usally a section that says rules or requirements. This talks about stuff like the amount of posts you have to have, crediting, etc.
Common rules:
Crediting:This rule is normally written similar to "You must credit" or "Put my name in your sig" This rule is when a designer wants people to know: That they made it, so you can't say that you made it yourself (this is illigal and I can talk about copyright for hours), or as an advertisement to get more people to request in their shop.
Dont request from more than one shop at a time: This is the normal shop rule and is pretty self explanatory, we spend tons of time doing designs and requesting in another shop after you requested in one is very rude. If you have to delete your request or you are requesting somewhere else or deleting your request make sure you tell the designer in a pm or vm.
Post count: Sometimes shops will have a certain post count that you will need to have before you request. This can help slow down or speed up the amount of requests you get, and well a whole bunch of other reasons.
No private message requests: Most designers won't take requests that have been pmed to them, so dont unless it says something like that.
3. Types of designs you can request
Signatures or Sigs for short (those things at the bottom of your posts)
