Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Do you take requests or art trades or commissions?
A: I only ever take commissions seriously if they're already paid for. I can't find it in myself to take on art trades as frequently as before unless it's with a good friend. Requests are strictly off unless I personally offer them to be open.

Q: Will you be my friend?
A: This isn't something you ask for; it'll happen if you take time to get to know me better and purposefully understand me beyond what I do at face value. I won't bite, it takes a while for me to act on rage but I won't be a doormat either to people expecting one-sided understanding.

In other words, as long as you don't disrespect or mock me and how I deal with things I don't see why a friendship can't be possible.

Q: Will you chat with me on MSN/Yahoo/AIM/Skype?
A: Maybe. See I'd be more comfortable getting to know people on acquaintance level from meeting up in-person, forums or from comments on dA first before jumping to chatting.

If you absolutely wish to chat with me personally at least introduce who you are in your invite and make mention of how you know me (forums, dA, met in-person, etc.) Failing to do both will result in me turning down the invite; I don't want some random contacts messing with my listing or doing worse things like transferring unwanted baggage.

I usually use MSN, ID being hplaurel@hotmail.com.
Hit me up for a chat anytime once you have me as a contact! Be warned not only am I hush-hush at first time conversations, but I'm also I'm terrible at figuring out when I'm starting to get annoying so do let me know when that happens.

Q: When can I expect you to be available to chat to?
A: I'm generally not very consistent; there will be some weeks I just shut off from everyone without explanation. Forgive me for when these happen. In the meantime simply cross your fingers for me to pop up!

Q: May I draw your characters? Can I draw them with mine?
A: By all means, you're free to do that. Take into account what I don't wanna see though when you draw me something so it doesn't feel awkward for me to say I don't like what you've drawn. It's gonna have to be that kind of treatment: I wanna be honest in dealing with people more than anything, even if it means showing disapproval/disagreement of something. So deal with it.

Q: May I use your artwork for a video I'm making?
A: Sure thing! Remember to link back to me as the original source and please don't go using my artwork without my permission. Saving my pics to your files for your own viewing pleasure and that of your friends is fine; showing it on other websites without my permission and/or claiming it as yours isn't.

Q: Does your character need a boyfriend?
A: They need a partner like they need a new friend. Which is to say they I DON'T pair them off with just anyone's characters XD

Will add more stuff when I remember some more details!
