Hey all crafty peoples!

I'm looking at finally setting up a facebook pony page and having a logo of sorts to use there, here on the arena, and for my eBay auctions, etc.  I have *zero* artistic talent and am hoping I can pay someone to draw/create something for me.  It doesn't have to be large or fancy in any way.  All I ask is it's drawn in the original G1 style.  My username is Silverdawn, but I've never thought about what "Silverdawn" would actually look like... blues/whites/grays/purples/silver etc?  Unicorn/earth/pegasus?  No idea.  If someone could even just do a head shot, I'd be okay with that.  I'm leaving everything else completely open. I've never bought anything like this before, (just traded ponies once for a website template) but is the $25-30 mark for an image okay?  (If I'm way off, please let me know)  Any help you can offer in terms of what I should look for, or if you're artistic with graphic design programs and want to take me up on my offer, please let me know!  :)

Thanks!
Silverdawn

Sadly I am a traditional artist (I JUST started dabbling in digital art this year at a rate on one piece a month so I dunno what good I would be) this sounds like a fun project but I dunno if my digital skills are worthy. good luck on finding someone!

Hello! I do traditional hand painted watercolors that I scan and "digitize". Here's a link to my Arena Gallery... Let me know if you like what you see!

I'll do one for you.  Ill pm you when it's done.

FYI I don't do digital art but it will look ok scanned in.

I may sound a bit amateurish but I'm not too bad.

I know you went with someone else but I thought I'd share this anyhow.  ;)
Here is your picture.  Please let me know what you think.

Hey all!
Thank you everyone so much for all your offers.  I'm always amazed at the number of crazy talented people in our community!  I ended up going with two people, one for Web art and another for a real life watercolor.  I'm so excited to see what they come up with!  Once again, thank you everyone for all your help!
