As it turns out I am unsure how specific I am allowed to be *sweat*
A few of us are starting a new independent project of a new avatar site. I wont go into much more as I am sure that breaks some rule.
We have a few people who are able to do items but we have no base artists....
As for price well.....The two of us are willing to spend just about anything here......though we are unsure if that legal as well......its really a delicate situation.
