Atari-Jess #1 Posted September 5, 2007 (edited) Latest edit: I finally have a fantastic host, so I am working on repairing my gallery section! I started a little side thing, I work in somewhat of a specific style, so take a look at the site I made for it: I basically make anime-chibi-style plush toys. often with animal features, but obviously without too. http://neko.phy.ca If you like what I do, please consider commissioning me to make something for you, a partner, a child, etc. Thanks Edited September 27, 2007 by Atari-Jess Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Atari-Jess #7 Posted September 7, 2007 The site is up and no comments? not even on the design? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy Climber #8 Posted September 7, 2007 Cool website. I think it is awesome when people start there own buisness, thats what the USA is all about If I am ever in need of a stuffed animal I will contact you Do you make dog toys? If not you might want to consider that market. I think people would like a stuffed Rosie O'donnel or Woopie Goldberg for there dog to chew up Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atari-Jess #9 Posted September 8, 2007 Not a bad idea, the only problem with dog toys is that people aren't typically willing to pay much for em, and for all the work I put into em, while I wouldn't mind if a dog tor em up, it wouldn't be worth my while to make a lot if I had to deal with much lower prices for them. Still though, not a bad idea at all. Perhaps if I get good enough that I can really whip them out fast (Im pretty fast as it is now!) then it would seem a lot less work to make them like that. I much enjoy novelty factors over pure profits, and the art and creation of the plushies themselves over the profits. But yeah! I will keep it in mind, absolutely. I am always open to peoples ideas, advice, and comments. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chickybaby #10 Posted September 8, 2007 I never knew you were so creative in an artist type way! What a darn clever idea! Although I don't like anime, I can appreciate the stitch work and labor that went into making those. With being a "stay-at-home" mommy, I have to figure out a source of income myself. But don't worry you won't have any competition from me in this department. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Atari-Jess #13 Posted September 9, 2007 It no workey for me... Last time the host went belly up, so I kept the url but changed the host, I'm not sure why it wouldnt be working for you that time... an alternate url is http://neko.exofire.net so if the first one isn't working, maybe directly from the server will... Let me know, Greg. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gregory DG #14 Posted September 9, 2007 Ok, both links work now. Dunno what was going on. Very cute work! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atari-Jess #15 Posted September 9, 2007 I never knew you were so creative in an artist type way! What a darn clever idea!Although I don't like anime, I can appreciate the stitch work and labor that went into making those. With being a "stay-at-home" mommy, I have to figure out a source of income myself. But don't worry you won't have any competition from me in this department. I have way too many hobbies and talent like things Thats what my mother did too when we were younger, she made crafts. I appreciate that you can see the effort I've been putting into these little guys, and I intend to really start pushing myself in making more and more elaborate ones. All good ideas mean there is competition somewhere out there, and I already know a few people doing this, but I do feel my work is different from theirs, especially at my price point. Anyway, thank you for your thoughts Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigO #20 Posted September 21, 2007 I actually made some custom plush toys myself once. They were themed for a web community that I belonged to. I think I did 16 or so. Basically gave them a way. What a pain. Best of luck to you. I'm sure you're better at it than I was. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Random Terrain #24 Posted September 22, 2007 It doesn't cost too much to have a real web site with a real Web address. It's better to get a permanent address now (like www.buymyshit.com) if you think your site might become popular. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atari-Jess #25 Posted September 22, 2007 (edited) I would love to have a real address and real hosting if I could pay with paypal but not have to subscribe to it by backing of a credit card, and I would rather not pay for a year in advance... I fixed the suspension of the site though. (but it might take a while before that updates) apparently I was supposed to log into the forum twice a month or something This is very embarassing.
