    Posted: 25 December 2005 at 7:45pm
Hello there, and I'd like to thank you for taking the time to look over my job offer.
First off I'd like to tell you the purpose of this offer and all about my company and why I am wishing to obtain you as a member of our team.

Pixel Planet is an online forum based community.
Our goal is to one day become one of the largest forum communities on the Internet!
With fully customizable avatars, interactive iso-metric towns, and a few extras.
But in order to be successful in this we need to form a sturdy team of talented individuals, who are all extrodinary at what they do.

Over the past few months work has become stressful for me.
It's quite hard to work a full-time job, and still have time to operate/create a website.
And with a shortage of staff members it becomes worse.

Since a few drop-outs of the current staff my job at the moment has built up to;
Managing and operating the server, Creating 100% original graphics for the site, Programming the new features, Organizing events and storylines.
It's quite hard to juggle all that in one day, let alone find time to sleep.

The hardest part of all that is the graphics department.
Since I'm still quite a noob when it comes to good pixel work, all the graphics for the site are sub-par, and that's not what I need.

Here are some quick descriptions of the jobs that are available at this time.

Basically your job is creating images for the cosmetics section of the website.

Some examples of the work you might have to do are;
Making a
permanent logo, Creating some smilies, Making some post and quote icons for the forums.

Those are types of jobs you might be called on to do.

Some examples of the work you'd have to do is;
Create original towns with different themes, Making the towns interactive by using flash and adding links to different buildings that will lead the user to different parts of the site.

Those are the types of jobs you would be called on to do.

Some examples of the work you'd have to do are;
Making both male and female bases, Many different clothing sets, Looking over peoples suggestions for ideas towards items.


Those are types of jobs you will be called on to do.

However this jobs work wont be put into effect untill I purchase the proper code I need to install customizable avatars on the site.


As for rate of pay...
I'm currently attempting to purchase all the things we need for the site.
And still trying to pay my bills at the same time. D:

However hopfully after a few months into the production of the project, I'll be able to be financially stable by having the users be able donate towards paying the monthly server cost.
That way I wont have to pay that much for the server and actually be able to pay my staff.

When this happens I will discuss the rate of pay.

If you are at all interested about any of the jobs available please contact me A.S.A.P.
Don't forget to show samples of your work if you are applying for a job.
If you have any questions about ANYTHING don't hesitate to contact me.

You can do so either by:
- Replying to this thread
- Private Messaging my account here
- E-mailing me at soulcop@gmail.com
- Visting my site and messaging me via PM

Here is the link to Pixel Planet.

Thank you for your time.

i wouldnt consider myself good enough to do the isometric pixelart for your site, but i can work on the layout if needed. You can check out my website here:

www.insanegaming.eternelgaming.com

the forum isnt working right now, my database got a little screwed up and i havnt gotten around to fixing it.

As for web programming languages i know:
html
css
php
a little bit of xml

and i am always learning new languages, so if another language is needed then i can learn it. I would like a pay eventually, but i dont really mind doing the work so take your time getting around with it, it doesnt have to be much either.

I can also do avatar clothes, accessories, etc. I do not really have a portfolio of my art work I have done in the past, but if you would like me to create something to show you, just tell me what you would like. I have been doing photoshop for 2-3 years so I am pretty good with it.

Contact me via
AIM: EvilBoogiemanX
Email: EvilBoogiemanx@gmail.com
MSN: FFXIFreak@hotmail.com

or just PM me here.
Thanks for your time,

Well we've got Filax as our layout artist now, so the only jon out of those 2 are avatar artist.

If you'd like to show me what you can do with time, could you perhaps make I dunno, say... Edit some clothes onto any doll base.

Just so I can see your clothing skill and also how long it would take you to do your work.

that shirt is just a scaled image of the internet, and colour reduced.
As for the glases they cant have taken longer then 1 minute.

Souly take my advie and dont hire this FRAUD who will just rip you
off by scaling pictures he finds on google.

Snark, we love yuu.

It's quite obvious that it's a google searched image.

I'm not THAT stupid, I mean come on, look at the quality of the shirt.
And then look at the glasses.

I'm glad that I wasn't actually considering him for the part.

im sure you wont even believe me, no one does in any aspect of my life, but

i wasnt trying to rip you off. I told you i only had a few seconds to do some things, but if you are too anal to even ask for an explanation, i dont want to work for you anyway. I was considering making better clothes, but when i saw your posts i figured, screw it. You are not even worth wasting my time for.

besides, it not like you are a super professional forum with amazing 3D avatars, so the pics look fine with the quality of the other clothes on your website.

Perhaps that is why he was looking for an artist, retard. Now we all know that not only are you not creative and talented but lack any social skills too, perhaps you can find some on Google.

he wants an artist to make amazing 3D avatars? then he should state that. All i see is that he wants pixel artists, not 3D modelers.

You brought up the 3D-stuff. Anyway, you're going to be banned soon due to being a pain in the ass as well as a waste of bandwidth.

Mh, I just don't get it, why do you all get so obsessed about a guy offering help for an unpaid job (at least unpaid at the beginning). If hes not the right one for making layout graphics for the page, why not just whisper "no, thanks and goodbye".

thank you d-p, someone finally agrees. Anyway, why exactly would i be banned? For trying to help somebody, then getting lip about it so getting mad? Whatever, if that is how you run this forum than ban me, but if not (which it doesnt seem like that is how you run it) then just let this thread die unless somebody else applies for the job. Im not even gonna check this thread any more for anybody else that would want to post about me.

Waste of time?
How am I the waste of time out of all this?
I gave you all the time you needed, not my fault you decided to hand in what you say took "seconds"

You could have done better in the amount of time you've spent bitching about how you didn't have enough time.

Did I say I that we were super professional forum?
No, I don't believe I did.

Amazing 3D avatars, was I asking for amazing 3D avatars?
No, I was simply asking for a new pixel avatar artist.

The purpose in this thread is to find better pixel artists then myself.
So that the quality of the avatars aren't limited to only my abilities.
