Hey there! I'm not exactly new, per se, but a (forgetful) returning member! Like most folks around here I played HL back in the day (under various different names I've forgotten by now) from around 2004-05 until the site change and I lost interest. I didn't hear about HP until mid 2012 and was active here with Russian Arabians and doing graphics until 2013, when college ate me alive (and my laptop at the time bit the dust).

In any case, I'm back and hoping to get into the swing of things! I haven't decided what to start back up training and breeding, so if anyone has suggestions or a particular interest in seeing another (small-time) breeder of something specific, let me know! c;

I do have one burning question, though - how is the market for graphics lately? I have examples of past works linked on my profile and would love to get back into doing commissions; what are the going rates in today's HP economy? The prices ranges I have are all from what I was charging in 2013 so I'd like to update them if they're obsolete!

Looking forward to meeting y'all! c:

WELCOME!  Come join us in chat sometime to get to know us crazy cats!  I just love the community here! 

I agree with everyone else about throwing something up in auctions to see what the going rate is.  If you want to get your feet wet before doing auctions I would gladly order a couple images from you!  I love your work!

Siib, I most definitely will let you know about those backups! :) Thanks for the RB request btw!

Tronic you've won my heart with the Toy Story gif xD if you ever want anything please do shoot me a message! I've never really sold graphics via auction so I'll probably just stick to my stubborn crotchety old "PM ME PLS" sales methods of yesteryear.

Sounds good.

And the auctions are pretty neat. I know I for one, and so I’m sure plenty of other players, regularly go look through them even if you don’t post an ad. People are also pretty fair about paying what it’s worth in this market and not trying to undercut artists. I wouldn’t cut it out of your options just yet! ;)
