:bulletgreen:Icons for Windows
You can supply me an image to turn into an icon to use on your folders and shortcuts in windows.

You will receive a .zip with an .ico and .png file inside, both 256x256.
Or, just a link to your .ico file, if you do not wish to receive any extras.
They will have transparent backgrounds, unless requested otherwise.
You may also request a version of the full sized image with a transparent background.

Examples
Here is an example of anime icons I made for myself.
Here is an example of icons I made for my picture folders.
Here is an example of icons I made for my music folders.
Here is an example of the transparency conversion.
Here is an example of what you'll receive when I'm done. (.zip file)
Here's an example of just an .ICO file that I made (May look small in some browsers, right click and save as.)

Icon FAQ/Guidelines
Please make sure your image will make a good icon.
The simpler the image, the easier you'll be able to see it when it's smaller.
Extremely vertical or horizontal images will be smaller as an icon, since I have to make it a square.
Images with color will look better, so don't submit sketches or lineart.

How do I use these icons?
On windows, first extract the .ico file to somewhere on your computer. Then right click whatever you want to change the icon of. This can be any folder, or shortcut. Click properties and and menu should pop up. There will be a change icon button, usually on the 'customize' tab, depending on your version of windows. Click the button, then click browse, and find the icon you extracted earlier.
Windows versions XP and lower won't be able to take advantage of the 256p icons, so they will be small.
How do I open the .zip file?
By using a program like WinRAR or 7-zip. Your version of windows may already be able to open .zip files, so try opening it before downloading something else. Please note; you only need to deal with a zipped file if you want one. If you just want the .ico file, or want me to upload them all separately, then I don't have a problem with that.
I use a mac.
No problem. Tell me that in your note and you'll just receive the .PNG file for you to use. Please note that I can't help you set up your icon though..

If you still have questions, please feel free to ask.

:bulletgreen:Wallpapers
I generally make all my wallpapers with stock textures. This means that I can't really sell wallpapers made with other peoples work unless it's okay with the creators of all the stock that I use. There are a few workarounds, however. Also, do note that I can render fractals to your screen resolution. (See fractals section)
I can use my own stock, and/or you can just pay me with tips for the service. (See pricing section)

Examples
Libido by TheEmerald Mollifying Blight by TheEmerald Current by TheEmerald   Riveting Ridges by TheEmerald
My wallpaper gallery

:bulletgreen:Fractals
I do not consider myself an expert on fractals, but I'd love to try my best at making something you'd like.
You can request things like the type of fractal, colors, and general look and feel of the fractal. I can also render with a transparent background and add a custom made one. I can render at any image size that you want. Animated fractals are also a possibility. (See animated gif section)

Examples
Transcendence by TheEmerald Quintessence of Mind by TheEmerald Mutation by TheEmerald
My fractal gallery

:bulletgreen:Vector Traces
Supply a screenshot of an anime or other animated show, and I will completely re-draw and color the image using a vector program.
Vectorized images can be resized to any resolution without any loss of quality. Background may be transparent or I can make a new background as well. May be wallpaper sized. (see wallpaper section) May also supply lineart version.

Examples
Kill Me Baby Sonya Anime Vector by Emerald-Stock Sonya Action Pose by TheEmerald Kyouko Summer by TheEmerald
My vector gallery

:bulletgreen:Animated .gif and Avatars
I can create an animated .gif from part of a video. Supply me a youtube link of the video, what part you want extracted, and the size you want the .gif to be.
Example 1 - A clip taken from an anime.
Example 2 - An animation I made with my webcam.

I can create an animated fractal, which could be a color change, a morph into another fractal, etc.

Examples
Animated fractal Transcendence by TheEmerald Animated Fractal: Portal by TheEmerald

Avatars can be pixel art, or extracted from a video, both animated. Please note that I am not an experienced pixel artist, so pixel art should be limited to abstract or something simple. (See examples)

Examples
Galtrant by TheEmerald CHOMP CHOMP AVVY by TheEmerald Random avvy thing by TheEmerald Ditto animated avatar by TheEmerald
My avatar and animation gallery.

:bulletgreen:Mosaics
Supply A main image and as many tile images as possible for me to make a giant mosaic with. Or, if you can't supply your own tile images, I can find them for you.

Examples
Nightmare Mosaic by TheEmerald Clue Mosaic by TheEmerald Ultimate Mosaic by TheEmerald
