Cost and where to hire theme creator for mystic bbs? reddit / bbs ---------------------------------------------------------------------- worldsfastestweiner · 2014-07-11 15:06 Does any one know the going rate and where to hire someone to help me theme my Mystic BBS? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ellisgl · 2014-07-11 15:24 I would like to know where to get themes and docs about them. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- worldsfastestweiner · 2014-07-11 16:24 Same. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- worldsfastestweiner · 2014-07-12 04:32 Does this look legit/fair in pricing? http://blocktronics.org/customtronics/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mro_1337 · 2014-07-13 00:12 those prices are fucking nuts. 150 bucks for a welcome screen? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- worldsfastestweiner · 2014-07-13 01:35 Do you know a better place to go? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mro_1337 · 2014-07-13 14:26 you can ask ansi artists and they can do it for free [and then they include the art in the next artpack(s) ], or they would probably do it a lot cheaper. might get ripped off though. a lot of blocktronics guys have said they have nothing to do with that charging for art stuff. I don't know what to make of it. all of a sudden these blocktronics guys were going around on facebook saying they would do art for people and posting their blocktronics link. then a lot of people on the fb groups were like .. 'whoa'.. over 100 bucks for one ansi? that's a bit high isnt it. then these guys would get offended and say they have nothing to do with it and they do stuff for free. i talked to one of the higher ups and what i gathered from it is the guy who does the website had this idea himself, so set it up all on his own. the person i talked to didn't know where the money went from paypal, and he's a senior member. regardless, that shit stayed on the site, and i guess that's what they're charging no matter what other people say. anyways, one swedish member who's lived on assistance his entire life because he's a drug addict got pissed off at all of us. I wasn't flaming this guy, btw. i was just pointing to that link and asking him whats up with these blocktronics people doing the bait and switch posts on facebook all of a sudden. http://i.imgur.com/Ge3j07O.png ^^ you can see he was quit pissed off. even called me a pedophile and other bad words in swedish on the fb group. But anyways, blocktronics is a group of artists from other groups and most of them are cool guys. most of them will do art for you for free, but take into consideration that these people are grown men with lives and family. if you want something, you should be specific. even draw something out on paper and send a photo. dont say you want something 'nice' and then reject what the artist draws for you. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- worldsfastestweiner · 2014-07-15 21:22 Do you have contacts with "good/not crazy" people at blocktronics? I don't have facebook. Perhaps you could ask around and post back to me with some contact information for folks interested in working on a custom theme for a Mystic BBS board? I don't mind paying cash for a project if they will complete the work and not scam me. (Read - Will use Paypal and provide a detailed invoice with what will be completed) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mro_1337 · 2014-07-18 22:21 facebook is free. sign up and post on blocktronics and other ansi pages. it's probably your best bet ---------------------------------------------------------------------- livingretro79 · 2014-08-01 07:52 wouldn't mind finding something myself, really just looking for screen for a bbs i've been working on. but the prices are insane. i'm at a point to try my hand at making my own. too bad i haven't even attempted ascii art in 20 years. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mro_1337 · 2014-08-19 00:23 looks like someone was watching on fb and they deleted the page http://i.imgur.com/Jpl3tvp.png
