I am interested in a new layout, but nothing that is currently for sale has gotten my attention. I am wondering if anyone can possibly make something from scratch for me. Let me list a few things for general criteria.

1. The image is to contain either Riley or Sir Aaron along with their Lucario. This cannot be any image copied from the Internet; try making something new from vectors or gifs. If you can draw (by hand, by pad, or whatever) it yourself, and draw it well, I will throw extra Viz into the reward.

2. The characters are to be placed on one side (preferably to the right) of the layout and the text box must not sit over them. Go to Buy Layouts and look at the_casualty's layout, Snifits! (Mario Bros), for an example.

I am not sure of what the dimensions of the layout should be, but I do know I want it to stretch across the webpage and will want a scroll bar so the text does not stretch the post.

I currently have about 6,000 Viz and will place all of this into the reward, but I am willing to negotiate if need be.

I could help you if you like. Would it be fine if I 'GIMPed' a picture of Riley or Sir Aaron next to Lucario on a white colored(can be what ever color/backdrop you like) background with the text box on the left?

pi0x : I am hoping the background can be a similar color to my current layout, but if something else seems to work better then we can go with that. Use any program that works best for you. Text box on the left is what I am hoping for, thank you. I am hoping that where the characters stand will have a little overlap (hence why I suggested vectors or gifs), but if that is too much then do the best you can.

How do like this image for the background? I have yet to add the text box, though.

pi0x : Now that I see the characters on the dark blue background it looks like they blend in a little bit, but overall I am liking this. Are these the exact dimensions of the layout? If so, I would like it to shorter in height and have it stretch to fit the web page. Keep up the great work! I will be sure to earn some more Viz to fulfill my intended reward.

So, would you like a lighter color? Probably just a lighter blue.
Also, would you like it to stretch or scroll?

pi0x : I would like to see what the layout is like when the background is a few shades lighter. At first I wanted a scroll bar, but I think it would be better if the layout stretches without the images of Lucario and Sir Aaron repeating.

I can do that. How does this background color look?

pi0x : That shade looks much better. Thanks.

I sent you a test layout to see if it is to your liking or not. Just let me know if you want anything changed.

pi0x : The layout (second submission) is great. Text box is stretched just the way I wanted. Thanks for making the adjustments.
