Do you create fan art based on the works of SKZB? Know anyone else who 
does? Just feel like typesetting a favorite quote? Yes, you too can have 
your moment of FAME and GLORY (or exercise your scholarship or 
creativity, or contribute to the changeable nature of the universe, or 
whatever...) in the Adrilankha Gift Shop.

The standard garment template is 10"x10" at 200dpi, in PNG format. No 
color limit-- all items are printed digitally. If you want to print on 
dark colors, be sure to use a transparent background, and if you want to 
be able to fade against dark colors, fade to transparent instead. I can 
put the same image on mugs, mousepads, etc., though buttons need 
somewhat special handling to position correctly. This is generally only 
an issue if you use a colored background on buttons, and the odds are 
good I can correct whatever file you send if needed (as long as you 
don't mind if I tinker with your file, and provided I have the right 
fonts). Bumper stickers are a special case -- the template is 10"x3" at 
200 DPI, so these items usually need to be designed separately.

If you choose to send a design, please include in your email the name 
you want used as a credit (real name or handle), a link to your website 
if you want one, and a short note saying you're releasing the art for 
use in the Adrilankha Gift Shop with no expectation of compensation. You 
can mark the design copyrighted, CC, or whatever else you prefer, 
depending on whether you want to encourage fans to swipe the image for 
avatars or whatever. (Remember, you can't use art from book covers or 
whatever-- only design elements you create, or get from CC or public 
domain sources). SKZB reserves the right to refuse content contributed 
to the shop, but it generally hasn't come up so far.
