Read and follow the rules of the shop at which you request graphics.
Don't post the same request at multiple shops; your posts will be considered spam and moderated. If you want more than one attempt made at creating your graphic, post a new thread requesting it in the Random Requests & Critiques Sub-Forum.
If a shop says they are not accepting new requests, don't post a request there. This may seem like common sense, but some people do it anyway. Such requests are spam and will be treated as such.
Creating Graphics
State your shop rules clearly in the first post.
If neccessary, you may ban people from your shop. This means that they cannot request there; you may not stop them from posting on your thread (unless those posts otherwise violate the rules).
Sticky Policy
Shops won't be stickied. Posts that don't directly relate to the shop and only serve to up the thread will be treated as spam.
Creating Threads
Only create a thread in the main forum if you are creating a shop. Random requests here are spam.
Only the people running the weekly contest should create threads in the Weekly Contest sub forum
Threads Relevant to banner or avatar creation can be created in the Random Requests & Critiques sub forum
If you want feedback on a banner or avatar please use the The MtGSalvation Banner Critique Thread
Closing Shops
A Shop Will be closed if there is no activity for a month. If you want to return to shopping, PM either ExpiredRascals or Annorax and they will re-open it for you.
Avatar and Signature Rules Both
Don't use an avatar or sig image that was custom-created for someone else unless either that person isn't using it or they allow you to use it. If that person asks you to remove it, please do.
Avatars and signatures cannot otherwise violate forum rules. This means that they may not have pornography, flames, or other material that wouldn't be allowed in normal posts. If a mod finds a sig or avvy to be inappropriate, you will be asked to remove it. Failure to do so will result in an infraction.
Avatars
Avatars cannot be larger than 100x100 pixels.
Avatars cannot be larger than 40 kb.
Avatars may have animation.
Avatars may not be "seizure inducing;" no fast flashing images, etc. This is decided at the mods' discretion.
Signatures
Banners may not be larger than 600x100 pixels or 450x150 pixels.
Each person may only have one banner in his or her signatue.
A banner may be divided into separate, smaller images as long as the total area covered by these images is less that 600x100 pixels or 450x150 pixels.
Banners may not be animated.
Automatically inserted smileys don't count towards the banner space limit.
There is a limit of two quotes per signature. Additional quotes may be put if they're enclosed in spoiler tags.
Using Avatars and Banners Avatars
Go to User CP->Edit Avatar.
If you have the URL of the avatar, copy and paste it into the box that says "Enter Avatar URL."
If the avatar is saved on your computer, click "Browse" and find it.
Click "Save Changes."
Banners
Go to User CP->Edit Signature.
Copy and paste the URL of the banner into the "Edit Signature" box.
Just got to say, you've definitely earned distinction as an MTGS hero
Quote from Stardust »
Because he's the hero MTGS deserves, and the one it needs right now. So we'll global him. Because he can take it. Because he's not just our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. An expired rascal.

ExpiredRascals you sir are a god-like hero.

As part of the process to to help get this subforum back up and running, I'll be doing a complete review of the rules. Please post any thoughts or suggestions regarding the rules and potential changes to them here. Please mention in your first post in this thread if you run a shop so that I can better understand where each person is coming from.
This is your chance to speak up and help fix any problems with the rules here so that we can improve your experience here in the Avatar and Sig Shop Forum.
