This part of the FAQ contains information about the community.
As for me, I have been graphic designing since 2006 as a hobby. Whenever i have free time or feel bored, i open photoshop or start playing around with CSS and HTML. I can make layouts (livejournal, dreamwidth, website), winamp skins, wallpapers, icons... well, all that kind of stuff.
All i make is free to use as long as you give credit to this community. I make things for you to use because i think it's nice to offer people things, and like it when you use them! :3
A note to people new to making graphics: No one starts being perfect at anything. So while you may still be a beginner, you WILL improve if you keep practicing. You shouldn't do it because you think you should, it doesn't work that way. If you enjoy doing it, you will certainly get better at it. So don't give up! I have improved a lot over the years but still need practice myself!Will you be converting your layouts to DW?:
I will NOT convert any layout to the DW style system. However, i will post livejournal layouts here from time to time along with an explanation on how to import them correctly to Dreamwidth.
How do i navigate this community?:
For a fast and easy navigation of this community you should use the
COMMUNITY TAGS. You may browse the tags by interest: jrock, films, layouts, icons, wallpapers, etc.
I want to affiliate my journal/community/site with
inconformista:
OMG GREAT! Just go to the
AFFILIATION POST and drop a comment! Your community/journal/site should have something to do with graphics or art, be it photograpy, digital art, webdesign, or just have to do with music or something :3. Thanks!
Can i take your layouts and modify them to make my own?:
→You may take my layouts, change the colours, replace the header and background to your own etc. HOWEVER, those should be used for PERSONAL USE OF YOUR JOURNAL ONLY, and you shouldn't redistribute them around lj/the internet as if you made them. YOU MUST credit
inconformista every time you use that stylesheet/ANY of my stylesheets, codings, etc. Please, be thankful for my generosity ♥
May i edit your graphics?:
→No, please. If you would like, you can make your own header and replace it on my layouts, but please don't mess with my graphics.
Can i request a layout from you?:
→No, unless i make a request post. Layouts are so time consuming, i make A LOT and post them all over at livejournal (
inconformista) and also here. However, if you don't like the layouts i have posted and would like to see your favourite fandom featured in one of them, please head over at the
SUGGESTIONS POST, and i may grant your wish~
Can i use your icons as bases?:
→No unless stated otherwise. I take quite some time to make all of that stuff, please don't do anything i say is prohibited!
I have seen people not giving credit for your stuff:
→You could tell me (by PM or comment) if you were so kind and felt like it. I won't say you did, and i would be happy if you let me know. However I won't stop sharing stuff because people steals it, they didn't make it, I DID, you know that, i know that, they know that <3
***Note about credit: I ask for credit so others can see where you got the graphics from and can come see/use them too. So it's most appreciated and would like you to credit anything you take, but won't make a fuss over it if you don't. Just so you know, it's just plain courtesy to the graphic maker. Thank you.***
May i put your tutorials on my site/community?:
→PLASE NO, instead, link back to this community?
I hope you will like what you see here, and foremost, respect the rules. However, not following them could result on banning and, maybe, closing the community for Friends Only. I wouldn't like that to happen, i LOVE to have it open for everyone to see and use my stuff. Please do JOIN the community if you like it, though!
Lastly, i would like to point out that comments are my energy, your comments and criticism are always welcome and give me the will to keep making stuff FOR YOU! Please take 1 minute of your time to comment on my entries <3
