      Any word on the progress behind my stuff?
      This is directed to anyone working on my stuff. I'm not in any hurry at all, believe me. Just curious.

        Re: The FFR Profile Shop

        I made two requests for XCV, one for me and one for Kayla. He let his self-consciousness as an artist get to him though, and I know that feels. It's tough to not feel good at something when others think you're great and expect you to do well.

        I sent him a message:
        TL;DR - read all blue colored lines

        Hi there, XCV. I noticed that you had a shop in the thread so I figured it might be worthwhile to contact you about it. I am proficient at Photoshop, but being on Linux without a virtual machine means I can't really use PS to make a profile. I've been trying to get a working XP install on my virtual machine but haven't been having much luck.

        Anyway, I had an idea for a Lion King profile for myself, -and- for Kayla (accompanying profiles, since we're together), along with avatars for the profiles. She won't be applying her profile until after the tournament because she will be using a Mortal Kombat themed profile based off of Sonya. I, however, will switch to my profile immediately.

        Here's the details.

        For me:
        - I'd like the main character of my profile to be Simba, and I'd like it to be him as a cub.

        From personal experience, I've found it somewhat difficult to find a good high quality image just browsing on the internet. If I was on Windows, this is where I'd find a high quality DVD-rip of it and use VirtualDub to catch any particular expression on any frame that I want (my current avatar/profile have really nicely captured expressions because of this).

        - I'd absolutely love a really confident face of some sort on Simba, if possible.

        I like associating my skill level as a player with a really strong character for my avatar, I don't know why. It's just something I've always done (previous profiles: Krauser from RE4, Chris from RE5, Arcanine from Pokemon, and Diego, both Ice Age 2/3).

        - I'd like the avatar to blend in with the background on my profile page. _.Spitfire._ does this on his profile.

        As far as the particular design of the profile itself, I'd like a darker theme, somewhat similar to my current profile. Your profile seems to have a nice abstract/grungy flare - I wouldn't mind something similar to that.

        For Kayla:
        - she'd like the main character of the profile to be Nala, as a cub.
        - she doesn't mind what facial expression is captured within the profile.
        - she also wants to have the avatar blend in with the background on her profile page.

        - darker theme also preferred.

        I'm aware that I'm asking a lot for one profile, let alone a second one, but I'll pay double your asking price if they come out good (and seeing your past works, I don't doubt you for a second).

        Let me know if this is alright with you!
        He then told me that he hadn't watched The Lion King before (and jokingly mentioned that he was sheltered as a child ), so I gave him two images as an example of what I was looking for.

        Simba: http://i.imgur.com/xN7bw.png
        Nala: http://i.imgur.com/2t17Q.png

        If for any reason, you don't like the images and feel like you can add something better that fits the requirements, by all means do so. Also, it might be a bit difficult to find good images - I took the two that I found from this YouTube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1SR0YQ7vMI (the other parts are all within the same channel, so it's not impossible to find).

        I know it's not the best of ideas to take images from a YouTube video, but the images snagged on 720p are actually pretty decent.

        I'm still willing to give someone 2x their asking price for what both profiles would normally cost, but only if I actually like them. I am capable of creating profiles on my own, but I can't seem to get my XP working on a virtual machine in such a way that I can share between my virtual disk and my Ubuntu partition. This is why I'm asking you guys.

        The offer is out there. I'm looking for someone fairly skilled to take it on.

            XCV, please don't quit on us. Take up Halogen and Psycho's and I'll tip you 10k. You're too good to be saying you suck. Pick yourself off the floor, mang. 3:

              NocturneAunamic has my profile request now - I've waited a bit longer than I wanted to for these.

              I really would like to see XCV come back, though. =/

                            Also, I guess you A) Didn't have the time to update the OP or B) Didn't see my post in the profile avatar alignment thread, but I said you could put it in this thread somewhere.

                              I'll try again. Could someone please make me a new profile layout? I would rather discuss it in PM rather than flooding this thread.
