Tips for Getting Your Design Requests Chosen
Provide a clear reference picture! I can work from written descriptions but you will be happier with the final product if you give me a clear image to work from. If your reference is based off of a designer, an artist, a show, etc. - please cite your source so I can provide proper credits if needed.
I prefer doing designs that multiple people can use as opposed to just one individual. (Requesting a town flag is OK but recognize that if your town name/theme is too specific, I may skip your request.)
Avoid choosing overly complicated designs. If the design is too complicated to translate into QRs, I will tell you. If you'd like me to still attempt it, I will do my best but understand that I may need to change some things to make it work with the game limitations.
Keep in mind the color palette choices are limited. I love me some rainbows but know that the more colors the design has, the more difficult it will be to reproduce nicely in-game.
Bonus points for flexibility. I like coming up with cool designs too - just give me a general idea to run on and let me know what would be likes or dislikes with the design and I'll take it from there (e.g. "I want a blue dress to match the Lottie bun and would like for it to be long sleeve and have a bow on the back. I don't like V-neck designs.")
Bonus points for requests that pair with in-game accessories or are a unique or cool item customization request. Really like the purple-imp hood but don't have anything to wear with it this month? Have you always wanted to customize a cushion into a bag of gummy bears? Let's do it...
Bonus points for seasonal relevance. Let's get you some in-game Halloween costumes for October or tacky Christmas sweaters in December!
Bonus points for humor and/or "real world" items. Because let's face it, you may really need a Netflix loading screen showing off the latest season of Orange is the New Black for your house.... or you just REALLY love your job at Best Buy and really need your blue polo shirt in-game.
Minus points for things that have already been done well. I love Harry Potter house robes too but there are a million amazing QR codes out there already. We don't need a million and one.
Minus points for designs that will take an eternity. I am not opposed to doing path sets but as they take a LOT of time, I'd much rather knock out several clothing requests instead.
