[center][b]I am subbed, no need to ping![/b] [b]Hello all![/b] I've recently discovered that I really enjoy making themed banner sets and other graphics. I'd really like to open a shop because:[/center] [list] [*]I feel like I'd have a lot of fun! [*]When I was looking to purchase my hatchery graphics, it was really difficult to find shops offering them and when I did they were just too pricey. [*]It would help fund my dragon-buying obsession. (Most important point here obviously.)[list] ----- [center][b]What you're all here for, the FREE part[/b][/center] [center][pinglist=43502][/center] I need experience and a portfolio for potential buyers to look at. I'd like to offer to fully deck out [b]TWO[/b] hatcheries for [b]free[/b]. Here is a link to my new hatchery to give you an idea of what to expect: [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/baz/3361087#post_3361087][img]https://i.imgur.com/RZ3K9Gj.png[/img][/url] ----- [center][b]What will it include?[/b][/center] [LIST] [*]Main Banner [*]6 Sub-banners/post titles [*]Navigation banner [*]Bottom banner (a simple border for the bottom of your posts) [*]7 Navigation buttons [*]2 Bullet points (tiny images for organizing in style) [*]2 border graphics (for using columns in your posts) [*]6 Breeding cards (you will be able to purchase more once the shop is open!) [*]1 Bump graphic (for your hatchery and affiliates) [*]2 Custom font/color titles [*]Miscellaneous (just in case I decide to add a little something extra) [*][b]I will help you with coding if you need it! If you have no idea how BBCode works or you just don't have the motivation to do it, I've got you![/b] [/LIST] If there is something you do not want, we can leave it out! This is just the minimum that [b]I[/b] think a hatchery needs. This will be the Premium package that I'll offer in my shop as of right now. It's definitely subject to change and any critique you might have is greatly appreciated. ----- [center][b]How do you win this?[b][/center] [*]Post in this thread with a link to your hatchery and a brief description of what the theme is. [*]If you don't already have a hatchery, post in this thread with: [list][*]The title [*]Theme [*]Small description[/list] Once the winners are selected, we will discuss details further. Just because this is free, doesn't mean that I don't want to go all out. Don't be shy when telling me what you want! [center][u]This will run until: [b]01/25/2025[/b][/u][/center] [center][u][b]The two hatcheries will be selected with a random number generator to make it fair![/b][/u][/center]

Hi there! Thanks for doing this!
This is my hatchery, Harlequin's Joy, it has three main sections, the principal is about Harlequin and Jester XXX colors, the second is about ancient dragons and 3rd is experiments, thanks!

hello! this is really nice of you to do c:

this is my hatchery, Moongleam Hatchery. it's been a little in limbo for a while because i wanted to redo all of the graphics and breeding cards but just never had the effort to do it myself oop. the theme of it is sky lanterns, but for breeding pairs it's a lot of night sky, star/con, and koi. a couple of pastel, but i think i've sold most of my pastel breeding pairs now, and i want to have a couple of pairs that reflect the seasons.

Hey there! First off, I saw your work with your hatchery forum and I absolutely adore it! I honestly was just browsing the Art Sales forum and stumbled across this masterpiece! I currently don't have a hatchery of my own, but I am definitely having plans and ideas for one. My first ever breeding pair that I know I want to keep is a [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/drs/2412017#post_2412017]Necromancer (Lich) Pair![/url] However, will this forum also be used as a paid shop? I'd definitely want to snag your artistic abilities later down the line, when I finally have my ideas set-in-stone. Lastly, on the topic of hatcheries and the blooming of one- does [i]anyone[/i] have any resources on how to get started with hatcheries and hatchery graphics? I'm 100% starting from a blank slate and any advice helps! [emoji=skydancer happy size=1]

@Lypryr
Thank you so much!

Yes this is all to get examples for opening my own shop! I want to offer graphics at a reasonable price that gives everyone the opportunity to open their own hatchery, but I don't really have anything to show for it aside from my own. My experience in trying to find an art shop that offers them has been lackluster and frustrating. I played with the idea for years to open my own hatchery and finally I just decided to do it all myself xD.

As for resources, here is a guide on the site:
[Guide]So You Want to Start a Hatchery 2


I can't speak to how useful it is as I didn't use it myself. I set mine up by using other successful hatcheries to get ideas from. The Hatchery Masterlist is a great place to start!

I use Canva and stock photos to make my graphics. It's pretty limited, but you can use the free version to do your own if you wanted to!

If you get picked for this, I will help with everything. If you don't, I plan on adding an option to my shop that offers the whole shebang!
