| Who wants a layout? |

In the past, I've offered special layouts as gifts or giveaways, and there's always the possibility to trade something for a layout.
But what if there's no special offer going on, and you don't have anything to trade?
( Answer these questions and we'll see. )
Give the questions your best shot, with any resources you like (Google or anything else). If I like your answers, I'll give you anything you ask for (er, in terms of layouts and banners and icons).
Actually, if I like your answers and I sense that they weren't Googled, I'll probably want to be your best friend.
Why do you have to answer these weird questions that have nothing to do with layouts anyway?
(1) If you know these without resorting to Google, then you are so much like me that I'd love you if I knew you. I want to encourage people like you to exist, so I will make you a layout to make your life a little happier.
(2) If you don't know these, then you can resort to Google. It means a little work, yeah, but not as much work as it will take me to make your layout. I make people answer these questions because I don't want them to take layouts or my work for granted.

Limited Time Offer!
I decided on my college (NYU), and I'm excited about it.
If you want a layout based on your college, tell me a few things.
(1) What college are you going to, or did you go to? (2) What's so special about it? Why do you love it so much you want a layout based on it? (3) What are the school colors, and what other layout specifics would you like?
Please note that this will only get you a layout based on your college. That's the point.

Made a layout for rockninja -- I really like this one. It's way more than she asked for, because I started fooling around with things for fun. When I couldn't figure out how to do stuff (e.g., selective transparency) immediately, I got stubborn and worked until I got the code, then had to use it in her layout.
It uses a very plain b&w layout from explodingdog, with one touch of #A10808. The layout's similar, although I did go a little overboard with #A10808.
Explodingdog's copyright states that you're free to use his pictures on personal sites, but you need to credit. This is my credit, but rockninja will have to be responsible for her own (I suggest putting it in your userinfo, next to the credit for my work).
Picture's to the left (mostly), content is to the right; there's a big empty hole in the upper left, in the actual picture. If it were for my LJ, I'd definitely stick my name in there, or a sidebar, or just anything so it wouldn't be so empty.

Made a layout for stickresistant -- gray and hot pink. It amply demonstrated the majority of my mad skillz, and I'm quite proud of it.
( overrides here )
In return, she gave me the gift of a name-change token! I'm now officially layoutsforkarma instead of layoutsforkarma. How exciting, right?

boyknife's Courtney Love one |

This one was for boyknife -- she took it, but changed the background picture and the colors. It made me sad because I made them match so well.
Also, I was brave enough to play with the *_DATE_FORMAT. Any minute now I'll start on image maps. Ph3ar me.

Just finished a layout for chelshock 'cos she answered all my challenge questions right. After all, that's what they're there for -- not for your amusement.
Anyway, she's a graphic designer, so I was dead nervous, but she didn't want anything challenging and she already had it all designed. I just had to plug her ideas into the overrides, which was hardly a problem. I can work like that, or I can refine a bigger idea -- either way, you lot, so keep asking.

Took a minute or two off and did a phoenix-based layout for neozeak.
( The One with the Phoenix )
The glow on his is what he wanted -- mine's a bit different. This version is mine, 'cos I like it better.

Am getting back to work on stillonmybrain/just_m's layout, the blue-and-white Justin one.
So I'm ditching my default layout ( here. )

Today is Christmas -- which I celebrate -- and I'm feeling generous.
Comment and I will make you a layout.
This is not first-come, first-served. There is no limit.
So. Want layouts? Comment (no IMs, no e-mails).
Tell me a little about yourself and your LJ (or DJ, GJ, Caleida, similar system). Then tell me what you're kind of thinking about for your free layout. Background picture, color theme, font -- whatever you know you want, tell me. Whatever you don't, we'll make up together.
Sounds like fun, huh?
EDIT: I have a lot of requests. You may still comment, but I won't be able to get to new layout requests for awhile. If you are still available when I contact you and I'm free, though, I'll still do it.
If you comment after January 1, I'm not promising anything; all bets are off. This was a holiday offer. Feel free to comment, and if you're literate and cool you could still get one, but no promises.

So if you were going to use a friends-only banner, and you wanted it to match this LJ, which would you pick?
