El C Rey

Ok, so, the warm-ups during my stream ended up being me revisiting some old OCs of mine from a story I started writing in my high school creative writing class.

Sylvester, the one with the dark hair (and gold crown) is the fire fairy prince to his kingdom and has been fighting in a war against the Enemy for several years. Isen, the one with the white hair (and antler crown) is the ice elf prince to his kingdom and has also been fighting in the same war against the Enemy. Both kingdoms are in the same country. These two have been friends (first friend-rivals then best friends) since they were hella young–like 9 or 10.

Anyway, long story short, Sylvester’s most trusted girlfriend Lily (mutual friend between all of them) ends up being a double-agent and traitor and almost kills Sylvester. Sylvester ends up Seriously Messed Up because of it, but Isen is there every step of them way towards recovery. They end up getting very very Close and eventually end up together.

Good ending: they’re royal boyfriends and are happy.

ALRIGHT EVERYONE I FIGURED OUT HOW TO DO FUCKIN INVOICES SO HERE YOU GO HERE’S THE TUTORIAL

invoices are an easier / safer way to request money from commissioners. all the commissioner has to do is accept to pay the money, so you don’t have to worry about them clicking or typing anything that will get you in trouble with paypal.

STEP 1

under Invoice Information you can choose what date your invoice needs to be paid by. if you don’t have a specified date for your commissioner then make sure to select No Due Date so they don’t get into any trouble for not paying by the default date.

STEP 2

go through your Business Information to make sure it’s only showing what you want it to show. your default template may show your address, phone number, name, etc, but everything is optional and can be turned off. personally i only keep my e-mail visible so commissioners know where the invoice is coming from.

STEP 3

your commissioner’s e-mail goes here

STEP 4

fill out what your commissioner is paying for and how much it costs. double check the Total towards the bottom to make sure you’ve filled out everything correctly. keep item names vague like “commission” or “image” since paypal may freeze your account if they catch any buzzwords they don’t like.

STEP 5

here you can fill out any terms and conditions your commissioner should know about, ie when you accept payment, if you give refunds, etc.

STEP 6

in the Memo box you can write a note for yourself to see when you look at the invoice. you can write down who commissioned you and anything else you’ll need to remind yourself of later

TEMPLATE

remember that you can replace the default template so you can save your business info, terms and conditions, etc for the next time you fill out an invoice.

IF PAYPAL IS ASKING YOU TO “SHIP” YOUR DIGITAL COMMISSION

look under Selling Tools on your home page and click Seller Preferences

click Update next to Shipping Preferences
