What do you think, would you be willing to pay 50cents(USD) to 5dollars for a custom made smiley or animated thingy, made to your specifications?

Edit: And pimpmann, before you lock or delete it, this is definitely relevent, as this is a forum, and all forums use smilies.

Gif animator, by ulead. As well, I am using PhotoImpact10, which is like a
no limits image editor and creator.

Stuff like this, although I have since gotten better.

Why would people pay if it was something that they could do themselves with a little bit of time and practice?

Well, maybe they don't want to, and are self-proclaimed, lazy people like Flying-salt. (No offense)

I seriously laughed at that. What draws you to that conclusion?
And yes, spud bux is a good idea.

Well since you asked for opinions I will honestly tell you. Who would want to pay any amount of money for some dumb graphic that you can only use on the computer?

In reply to this for the 'PimpMann22 fearing':

Ammosmoke, while this post is within all forum rules to my knowledge I would have left the topic regardless of your comment. Although if the topic matter is off topic such as this is, Ill shoot you a PM asking what in the hell is wrong with posting on Theopia. Your going to obviously moan about how it doesnt get as much traffic. Well no sh*t, because your lazy asses wont go there [Everybody that likes to talk off topic that is]. I mean I post about my rally shopping carts, building my shop, and everything over there. [Although Ill admit I frequent this forum more so]

When Im home building stuff, Im gonna go on SpudFiles, and when Im at school or board ill go to Theopia. [God forbid if my freinds saw how obsesive I was with potato guns :-p] This is why seperating the two is a great idea, although there is to many fricken' lazy people out there.

Also I wouldnt like others to think Im some rule nazi, because by all means under your guys standards some of the memebers Ive 'reamed' I can converse with without a grudge. EX: SpudStuff on the extreme side of things.

The REAL subject matter:

I mean rarely would I pay someone to do something computer based that is not beyond my abilites, such being in this case. You havent shown any suberb ability at doing such, so why not cater to myself? If you had a talent at it, and could thrown down some real nice stuff, well then maybe. Kinda a considence, but I really like some of FiveseveN, although there not animated .gif's or anything. Im gonna say your wasting your time.


And to toss everything up with a bit of humor Ill get some of the Urban Dictonary defintions of 'reamed'. Heck Ill even let you take your own choice as which one to go by!
1 - To rip someone's asshole apart.
2 - The act of enlarging a drilled hole, by use of a "reamer", in order to finish the hole wall, and to bring its diameter to within the desired tolerance.
3 - To get f*cked painfully.
[BTW lets not go off on any 'Pimp are you gay?!!11!!1!' tangents, as Im not meaning literally f*cking the dudes of this forum]

The only animated thing iv'e seen so far is spudstuff's avatar, (the little guy that pukes blood). I would have to see a selection before i would be willing to pay even spudbux. If you do come up with something worth paying real cash for, how much of a percentage would the host site, (spudfiles/theopia) get out of it? Are you familure with the term - Sapport your local bussiness man? Correct me if i'm wrong, but i think it falls under that catagory.
