Status will indicate how busy I am at the moment, which is directly related to how fast I can produce your sigs. If I am under the "OVERLOAD" status I will not take any requests until my backlog has cleared. Please keep that in mind!
I do my sigs in all styles so I don't really have that generic look or style most Photoshop Sig Artists possess.
So if you want a sig, for whatever purpose, please follow this format. It helps both you and me.
FORMAT: (Put N/A if necessary.)
Alias: The name displayed on the sig.
Phrases/Quotes:Any specific phrases, words, etc you want on the signature.
Specifics: If you want a specific picture/image, please link me. And make it high quality if possible. If you want specific effects, or a particular style, don't hesitate. Don't worry, you DON'T HAVE to have specifics. I can make something awesome outta my own imagination. n_n
Will you make the optional payment: Yes/No answer. Leave your In Game Name as well. My IGN is Respectful Merchant, but I'm not online a lot. If you are going to tip me, I will probably contact YOU.
I cannot stress enough it is optional, but if you want to send a more 'effective' appreciation for the time I spent on your sig, this would be a good way.
It will have no effect on the quality of your signature, I spend the same effort and devotion on each one. A contribution of 10k will be perfect, but... feel inclined to give more.

HOSTING:
I will host it on my Photobucket account. I will delete links or change them at anytime, so to be on the safe side upload the image to your own personal site.

Sample of my Works:
Here is a slideshow gallery:

I've made a few hundred sigs... and never really had an unhappy result. Here are some random selections from my works.

PRICING:
FREE!!!!!!
However, everytime I do a sig people offer to pay me even though I said it was free, so if you want to "compensate" me, 10k per sig will do. BUT REALLY, IT'S FREE! No catches!
Why am I doing this for free? It's because I love making sigs for people as much as I love gaming. It's one of my most passionate hobbies, and I'll happily spend hours just getting that extra lightning to make a perfect signature. When I make a sig, I make sure it looks GOOD and it has some meaning for the client; not just a pretty picture.
The other reason is that I AM looking for some contract/work (at home), as a way to make use of my passion. I have taken a few professional design courses and worked many projects before, but I have no 'professional' degrees as such. As I said before, it's my past time, not my career.
And I think you would agree that passion & experience always guarantees better results than a degree.If you like my work and want to dicuss work-related topics, please don't hesitate to contact me at new.canadian.rusty *A-T* gmail.com.
