I'd reqeuest, but I'm trying to recover from a sudden loss of creative inspiration.
if I were you I would just find a render you like, and then close your eyes, listen to Apocalyptica, and then youll probably get like a picture in you head. just saying, not saying you have to but Apocalyptica has good synchronized chaos so it kinda worked for me.

Chosing a render is where I'm stuck in the first place. And it is really off topic.

i wish i could but in not in the shop...
Snucas, there isn't anything we can do about it. The shop is full and that's going to stay. Unless someone quits, no new mem is coming. Even then chances are slim. Zrky, the last mem, just got in because Spire stopped working. If someone else was toquit, we would still be able to maintain our selves.

zrky...can I have aerodactly/tourous?

I would like to request a claydol/tentacruel fusion please. Could I also request an Evil Pidgeot as well?

How about a Meganium-Drapion fusion? Any takers?
Ooh, sounds like a challenge. If Bowser doesn't want to take it, I will.

Well said, Bowser. Honestly, this thread was never meant to be even what it became. The original concept was just Spire and I collaborating on a Pokemon sprite thread. Then right off the bat, Bowser asked if he could join, and he was pretty cool and we were acquainted through the Poke Center already, so we let him join as well. From there on, I was reluctant to let people join, although that was just initially; I don't mind anymore. Then Spire stopped working on requests, and zrky had already been helping us out temporarily while one or more member couldn't work, so we decided to add him permanently. If Spire hadn't stopped fulfilling requests, zrky would still be our substitute spriter.

But really, that's not an exclusion. Honestly, I'd consider some of the dedicated visitors of the thread, especially guys like Skyler and Xace who've been with us since the first and second pages, respectively, to be as much members of the shop as anyone else. Truthfully, you guys, the requesters, are really important to the shop. Because, while this goes without saying, we wouldn't have gone anywhere without you guys.

Also, I'd just like to say I'm ashamed of the three of you that have conformed and put a Magikarp recolor as your avatar...you know who you are.
:p

Man, if only people had as much interest in sigmaking as spriting. Most of the interest came and died with my sig shop. :(

That totally makes sense why you guys don't want more members. Ever heard of the All-Stars sig shop? It was taken over by spam the minute it started due to normal spam chat between members and the requesters which had doubled because of the extra members. In full swing it had 10+ members a day and gained about 5 pages a night. Course it somewhat died, but it was the bane of all existance for the longest time.

I really hope that the sprite shop comunity dosen't grow huge. One shop is enough to handle the very slight amount of requests you guys get as is. This is a fun place to chat (though it does get spammy at times) and, with extra shops, people might start quiting and you guys just might go out of buisness.

I may not have been with this thread as long as some people, and I know that works against me sometimes, and I may be mean sometimes, and I may really want to tear a pigeon's head off and stuff it down EVERY one of your throat's sometimes and....

...what was I saying? Oh yeah, I love you guys =D

Go ahead :). I'll take dark pegiot (spelling).

Ahhhh...the CPS history lesson. I still remember being the 1st poster and asking to join (the original post can still be seen through firus' quote). The days when you and some other people were the only ones to post in the PC. Then came spire and the PC got even better. Shortly, we got Xace, skyler, zrky and the rest. All that's happened in these 4-5 months was truly awesome.

I guess we've become such good friends that your ashamed of us ;P.

EDIT: MK!!!!

Yeah, I've heard of it and looked at it a little bit...doesn't look promising. I imagine they get a lot of spam, because...while the AE gets more traffic than the PC, they have about forty more pages than us and they started up a good month and a half after we did.

Also, I just read their "Big Shop Theory". Doesn't sound great either.

(No offense to you, Snucas, since I know you're a part of it.)

But yeah, I think it'd be nice if we could just keep the shop community pretty small. I don't want to sound mean by wishing no other shops would pop up, but if others pop up then it gets more competitive, and people will get offended because people went to one shop and not the other, etc.

Hm? I think Spire either came before I did, or we came at the same time...or I came shortly before.

No, wait. I checked it out by searching. Spire first posted in the Poke Center on April 22nd, I first posted on May 2nd (ironically, we both first posted in the same thread). So he was here first.

But yeah. Good times, good times...

You really mean that. Especially about me being a somewhat member. :D
Yup. You even enforce the rules for us. ;)

I wuv you guys. Yes, including you zrky.

Right back at ya.

Very well said, Firus... except for the Magikarp part.

I was asked to make them for the Magikarp BRoomers. It's not going anywhere though, and frankly, I'm not a fan of having it as my avatar. I see it as performance art, and while I hope it does not go on any longer, it's not a means of conformity. I was the one who created it anyway.

Even though I am a Karp (and was violently pulled from llama frineds for being both), I don't like karps. Game freek even got the sprite wrong; they are supposed to have lips the size of Texas.

Ah. Well, then you're not conforming, and if you invented it, there's definitely nothing wrong with it. It was a joke anyways, I didn't really mean I was ashamed.

And plus my Magikarp is a different color than everybody elses'. I'M SO DIFFERENT!
Only vaguely. ;)
I don't have a Magikarp at all. So I'm even MORE different. (See what I did there?)

well gamefreak started with pokemon for the purpose of making pokemon games. we should make a gyarados group saying "for people who are to good to be magikarp or grimer" and see how many people join. not making it a serious thing, but just to see how many people join

I'm glad you asked! (Because I know no one knew what it was.)

It's ACTUALLY from NewsRadio, which is an awesome TV show. It's from the first episode of the fifth season, which was about the death of the character Bill McNeal (due to the actor who played him, Phil Hartman, being shot by his wife in his sleep). Near the end of the episode, everyone walks by his desk individually and takes something off of it to remember him. Then the boss of the office goes over to his desk once everyone's left and gets his guys to take the desk away (so he can keep it to remember him). The episode ends with what my avatar is -- it focuses on his empty chair for a few seconds and fades to black.

But enough off-topicness.

I was sure you came first. I swear I remember seeing you post 6 straight posts in every thread you could see :p. I guess spire is so awesome I forgot :dizzy:
We should have an old avi reunion. It would seem great to see spire with the cat avi again :p


And plus my Magikarp is a different color than everybody elses'. I'M SO DIFFERENT!
