Okay, after...however long of life blowing up in my face, I've managed to find a little spark of creativity and squeezed this booger out of my...creative....sinuses?
EDIT
I accidentally uploaded an older, rougher draft. It was icky. Tell your eyeballs I'm sorry.

Anyway I'm here to throw some Shade:
Code:

(I don't really like working from the edges with these but it seemed like the best way to handle the invasive nature of the Shade)
I'll try to ping everyone, but apologies if I miss anybody - life is apparently volatile and prone to exploding in my face, so I've kind of been mosty floating around rather than actively participating in...well, darned near anything, let alone maintaining pinglists. I'll try to adress some questions too:
@
Akaineko:
While I don't have blank versions of the banners hanging around, I do have the headshots used to make them separetly uploaded to my
DeviantArt Account. I'm sure I have the separate Photoshop files somewhere, but I am terribly disorganized and they're on my old hard-drive. Digging them out and editing them and reuploading them is a bit more time than I want to put in on a blank/alternate version. That being said, while I'm okay with people using the headshots for blank versions, I'm not okay with people editing them and/or putting their own words over them; largely because these are quite recognizable and I don't want any confusion with that. (Tldr: use of blanks, fine - editing of blanks, not fine)

I haven't got a proper price scale set up for customs, in part because life can be so erratic it's hard to make sure I actually deliver - I've had requests that have got tabled for a year or more because of material-world reasons - so the biggest cost is
patience. I think a lot of people have asked here, which might have me a tad overwhelmed, but for those of you who are
still interested, if you PM me the details of what you want, I can give you a rough estimate. I don't plan on charging an arm and a leg for something simple like changes of the words, but even small changes like those take time and effort - so it might be a pittance, but I'm not working for free.

The birds parallel was totally on purpose - it's also the reason those two are facing opposite directions.

I know they're a bit hard to read. I'm considering reworking them, and possibly having alternate versions that are easier to read. Plague and Water were at least on purpose - Water has a mystic, obscured nature to it's lore, and Plague is...well, kind of mucky and goopy and messy. At the time I chose aesthetic over ease-on-the-eyes, which I do kind of regret now. For Earth...I think I was going for the old, weathered feel, but came out with mud. Hence the "maybe I'll redo them but that takes time and energy" stance.
Okay, general pings, okay.

Okay, once more - sorry for pinging anyone who didn't want to be, sorry if I hit you multiple times, and most of all - sorry if I missed you. Life explodes and I make mistakes, but I'm glad you all seem to like my stuff even when/if I'm a mess.
