Welcome to The Chimes Banner Factory, designed to provide Elftowners with Banners, Dividers and Buttons for their houses and wikis, made by yours truly. Isn't that lovely?

If you don't like what you find here, or do not want to have to request graphics for your house or wiki, please visit Elftown Graphics.

The comments on this wiki will be purged every now and again, so if you see that comments have been deleted, don't worry. It was just me tidying up. :]

Requesting Area:

Place all completed request forms below and I will get your banners (etc) to you asap.



Username:[Earoluim]
Wiki name: Earoluim's Manor
Type: Graphic.
Size: 500x200px.
Colours, Text, Images: I would like the name of the wiki in the graphic, much like where portal is located in the graphics example above, with a gothic/victorian floral design in the backdrop, seperating it from a trio of roses below it. two bloomed one unbloomed. A red bloomed rose, a white bloomed roses and a black unbloomed rose bud.
Matching set?: Yes

Username:[Tekkon KinKreet]
Wiki name: The ET Hitlist
Type: Image
Size: Default size is 500x200px.
Colours, Text, Images: Not picky, just the name of the wiki and some background dealing with the subject.
Matching set?: Dividers please.


Username: [Rice]~
Wiki name: Dragonfly.
Type: Image.
Size: Default size is 500x200px.
Colours, Text, Images: Well, dragon flies if possible. A thick black border with the a blue border inside of it. (two borders together basically) The colour schemes, I would like blues and blacks but keeping to a dark scheme. The style is gothic noir so could the writing be gothic esc. Also swirls are good and anything else that would go well. It’s meant to look very spooky and dark. Ok and I would like two quotes on it, above the title I would like ‘Come here little dragonfly’, then below the title ‘let me hear you testify’.
Matching set?: Nein.


Username: [Elwyne]
Wiki name: Rune Island Resort
Type: Ummm... word or image please though I'm not picky. Whatever you think looks good would make me happy.
Size: default size is fine
Colours, Text, Images: Maybe old runes or something that looks magical. A glowing boat in a storm maybe... that sounds more like a picture I guess. I really don't know much about banner making. 
Matching set?: either way is fine... only if you feel like it


Username: [XxTsomexX]
Wiki name: Tsome's Messed Up Songs Game
Type: Image
Size: Default is perfect :)
Colours, Text, Images: Something that has to do with music? I'm not sure if you could make something or not ^^' If not, I'll try to find something :P The text of the wiki on it would be awesome.
Matching set?: Yes :) Dividers would be lovely.

Colours, Text, Images: Ceepy and dark banner for my house saying 'Keyser' please. As for pictures well, go with a dark and sinister theme please, you know how i love creepy things.
Matching set?: Divider please.

2009-02-27 [Rice]: *sigh* why haven't you had more requests~?

2009-02-27 [Chimes]: Because I haven't really advertised :P I only have the one link in my house.

2009-02-27 [Rice]: I'll advertise for you if you like..I'm making a 'Wiki's you should see' thingie on my page.

2009-02-27 [Rice]: You have no choice you are advertised on my page.

2009-02-27 [Chimes]: Haha, thank you. XD I am about to upload your banner etc.. It's a bit odd... so if you want me to re-do it I will.

2009-02-27 [Rice]: Nah i love it..odd suits me fine.

2009-03-15 [Aeolynn]: I just invited.... oh.... a ton of people to this page :D the whole rp council too ^^ trying to make up for being a buttmunch about you getting this idea up before me.

2009-03-15 [~Crimson Angel~]: hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... interesting.

2009-03-15 [Atayemi]: Oooooooooooooooooooo! *squeals*

2009-03-15 [~Crimson Angel~]: lol

2009-03-15 [Aeolynn]: XD

2009-03-15 [~Crimson Angel~]: How are you?

2009-03-15 [Linderel]: Bah, I was here already.

2009-03-15 [Aeolynn]: :} well, I don't have a relation with you, so it was a general invite to the counsel

2009-03-15 [Tekkon KinKreet]: hello

2009-03-15 [Chimes]: Aeolynn, you're not a buttmunch. XD

2009-03-15 [Angel of Ice]: Quick question... it says "if you are found using someone elses banner or graphic you will be banned from this wiki."
Does that mean we can't use a graphic you made for someone else's request? I"m a little confused...

2009-03-15 [Chimes]: You can't use something I made for someone else, I made it for them, therefore they are the only ones allowed to use it. Unless it is for advertising purposes... then you're allowed to use it but only to advertise.
Technically using something made for someone else is Art Theft.

2009-03-15 [Angel of Ice]: Right, I know what art theft is. But if you are making a wiki for "free" images to use, I don't think you should say that only one person can use the images.
What if someone sees an image that will fit perfectly on their page? Do they have to request you make it again, just for them?

2009-03-15 [Rice]: She isn't making a qiki for free images, she's making a wii so you can requests stuff.
There is a slight difference, and each banner she makes is unique cfor the person who requested them.
It would be stupid to take a banner that reads someone elses name or wiki name.

2009-03-15 [Chimes]: Well, these things will be made for certain pages, thus having titles and possibly quotes on them, or for houses thus having usernames. No two wiki pages can have exactly the same name, the same with usernames. What's the point of having a graphic with someone elses wiki name or username on it? O.o; I don't see why anyone would want a graphic that has been personalised for someone else.
This wiki isn't just a free 'take it and use it' wiki. It's a request wiki. If people want to just grab-a-graphic they can go to Elftown Graphics, as it is what it's made for. This wiki can be used if people want them specially made, personalised, for them and only them. I know I'd be annoyed if someone claimed a graphic that was made for (or by) me as their own. I would assume others would be the same.

What Keyser said... but longer :P

2009-03-15 [XxTsomexX]: Oooh... lol I like this idea :))

2009-03-15 [Aeolynn]: :] I can be a buttmunch chimes :P

2009-03-15 [Earoluim]: * Looks around *

2009-03-16 [Asrun]: Great idea!

2009-03-16 [de Morte]: Hmmm... Now I have to find some images!

2009-03-17 [Tal Anduril]: I think it's a great idea! :)

2009-03-17 [Chimes]: Thank you ^^

Also, Tsome and Tekkon, I will hopefully be doing your banners today ^^

2009-03-17 [Tekkon KinKreet]: awesome! thank you.

2009-03-17 [XxTsomexX]: Thank you :)

2009-03-17 [Chimes]: OH! Tsome, do you want the title on there as well? Or just the quote?

2009-03-17 [XxTsomexX]: The title as well would be awesome :3

2009-03-17 [Chimes]: Alrighty. :] I'm making Tekkon's now, so yours will be done once I am finished. :]

2009-03-17 [XxTsomexX]: okay :D

2009-03-17 [Chimes]: Onto yours now. :]

2009-03-17 [Chimes]: [Earoluim], yours may have to be a bit taller than 200px, if you want it to look decent.

2009-03-17 [Earoluim]: * Chuckles slightly and looks at you * I am kinda new at this, so I am not aware as to what appropriate size it should be.

2009-03-17 [Chimes]: Well, I just thought I'd tell you. XD Just in case you were dead set on the size. I'll probably make it tomorrow, if that's okay? I'll be going to bed soon, so want to do it well.

2009-03-17 [Earoluim]: * Smiles and bows my head * Size set is not really and issue, I am sure that you will do what you think is best

2009-03-17 [Chimes]: I shall try. :] You were very specific. :P I like it.

2009-03-17 [Earoluim]: * Smiles and nods * I know what I like and what I would like to see.

2009-03-17 [Chimes]: The black rose bud is proving difficult... so I may cheat... :P But it'll be black!

2009-03-17 [Earoluim]: * Smiles and bows my head *Thank you, if it makes it easier it can be a partial bloom.

2009-03-17 [Chimes]: Well, the trouble is... black roses don't really exist, they're actually blue. :P Proper black roses are rare... at least in stock photos. I may just have to use another colour... and make it black. :P If my skills allow, which they should.

2009-03-17 [Earoluim]: uhm, I can prove that wrong, I grow black roses. it just takes a while. It would be a bit more accurate if it could be partially bloomed if that is not too much trouble to ask a change .

2009-03-17 [Chimes]: >.> Then can you not supply the photo? It woooouuuuuld make my life easier. :P I have every image I need... bar that one.

2009-03-17 [Earoluim]: * Chuckles * Unfortunately the best I could do would be to google it

2009-03-17 [Chimes]: Google = no no. Unless it's from a stock website, or stock account on another website, as they tend to be royalty-free and free for use. A lot of google images are copyrighted, which is why I use the things I mentioned up on the wiki to get my images, unless the requester wants me to use their photography.

2009-03-17 [Earoluim]: you could use the inside bud from the reference picture of the yellow rose that you have there, that would be perfect, just subract the outside petals,

2009-03-17 [Chimes]: Huh? Yellow rose? Where is this magical yellow rose?

2009-03-17 [Earoluim]: in the reference picture section under flower references, it is labeled yellow rose

2009-03-17 [Earoluim]: <img:http://elftown.eu/stuff/z/180034/MoreofH3%2527sFlowers/yellow.jpg?y=0&x=100>

2009-03-17 [Earoluim]: just take away like the six most outer petals.

2009-03-17 [Chimes]: I found a rose that would work better, because of the colour... It would be easier to change, but it doesn't look as pretty.

2009-03-17 [Earoluim]: ok

2009-04-01 [Tekkon KinKreet]: erm... i think you're sposed to post that up there... under ours

2009-04-01 [Chimes]: Generally, yeah. :P

2009-04-01 [Tekkon KinKreet]: XD

2009-04-02 [de Morte]: So, for text images, would they just be for my Elftown house? I'm trying to plan out a tattoo and I think you might be able to create something great.

2009-04-02 [Chimes]: Um... Not entirely sure what to reply to this... message me and we shall plot. :P

2009-04-02 [de Morte]: Okies!

2009-04-05 [Elwyne]: oooh, useful! I'm no good at making banners. I always do hand drawn stuff and our scanner is out of commission. I've got a couple of wiki rp's that could use some cool banners, but I'll wait until I can be more confident about how often I can come on before I make any requests.

2009-04-05 [Earoluim]: * looks around *

2009-04-21 [Elwyne]: oooh, I've already been here... and I musta forgotten where to go... I'm afraid my request might be a bit difficult. I've never had banners for my wikis and rps before so I'm mostly guessing, but whatever you decide to do I'm sure will be fine. Or if it's too difficult you don't have to at all.

2009-04-21 [Chimes]: It shouldn't be too difficult. :) It'll be a challenge, certainly, but I like challenges. I like the idea. :) I already know at least one stock that I can use for it. But at the moment I am nearing final deadlines and exam times... bear in mind this is the most important time of my life thus far... so please don't get offended if it takes me ages. After May 21st, I'll only be going to three lessons a week, though I will have someone staying with me but I'll probably have more time at that point if I don't do any before.

Sorry for the wait, but it has to be done. Thank you for your patience.

2009-04-21 [Elwyne]: I don't mind waiting. I know how it is. I do art too, and sometimes things just don't want to come out right for me, and that's just when I'm not busy myself... although I'm not often very busy. But I understand and I can be patient. I'll look forward to seeing it when you finish it though. Take your time and good luck with the lessons and everything.

2009-04-21 [Chimes]: Well, the art'll come out fine... but the deadline for my Art and Photography courses is May 21st (June 11th, latest for Art) So... if I have a spare moment when I'm not working... I'll probably be doing something for myself to calm the stresses of deadline and exam time... should I suffer them. I may well do the requests in this time... but if I'm stressed I won't want to be doing them... because they will come out badly. :P

2009-04-21 [Elwyne]: yep, I understand that. I hope things go well for you, and truly I don't mind waiting. If you need any help or suggestions or anything you can ask me. I may not be able to help, but I'll try! Sometimes I come up with good suggestions for things.

2009-05-03 [Silver Moon]: do you do houses with usernames?
