Title: Pony Pronoun Badges! ღClosedღ
Post by: Strawberry Swirl on July 13, 2015, 12:07:27 PM

Edit: I'm closing this, because I'm kinda bored with them and not many people have requested.
I had fun making the ones for those who did though! Thank you so very much!!

I got a cool idea the other day while driving!
For most people (that I know), asking for somebody's pronouns is routine. Doing this is considered polite to prevent misunderstandings and to be a better alternative to asking someone's gender (since somebody's gender does not always tell you about their pronouns). But what about those who aren't used to doing so?

I know the social justice scene here is kind of small (we're kind of cut off from the rest if the 'net, which I kinda like about this place) so I thought a fun way of introducing this concept would be to offer pronoun badges that you can put in your signature or as your icon. Also, I really like drawing for people! Hee hee.
Here's some examples!

Guidelines

-I will do any character, canon or OC. Since I make up hairdo's for canon ponies before G4 you can request a specific one if you want! (example: I would like a G3 Wysteria badge, make her wear a ponytail!)

-I'm going to do these in 4s, they're first come first serve.

-I will write down any pronouns! All are respected here. You can request multiple pronouns per badge too (like mine has 2 sets and Sparklesnap has 3), although the more you have the smaller the text will probably be.

-Currently I'm limiting these requests to one character per person
but if you would like more, I am also going to offer these for sale at $3 USD each.

While I don't get the whole pronoun thing since I've always been fine with he/she/them (Two-Spirits), I'm glad there are people who step up for the ones who have difficulties dealing with mislabeling.

Though, these are just a tad too big for signatures don't you thing?

I can't actually get them to fit into sigs I'm afraid. I have tried resizing images before but I can't ever get them right. :( I apologize of any inconveniece.

I wanted to wait until I could get a full batch to do yours, Heather- however since you're the only one who's requested so far I decided not to make you wait that long and did yours! I hope you like it! <3

Oh dang I missed these! These are cute, I'd actually find them really useful since I'm trans* (not a secret) and I only updated my profile on here to the right gender recently.

I still offer them for commissions, I just don't take more than one at a time now lol. Also not for free.
What'd I say? $3 a pop?
