CLOSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

For the last time: Do not PM me orders, they WILL be deleted. I receive upwards of 30 PM messages a day at this point, and these orders (generally WITHOUT payment) push important messages out of my inbox and into the trash. I'm sorry, but I can't tolerate this anymore. If you want to order, post in the shop.

Long ago, in a galaxy far far away... Oh, who am I kidding? Last night while discussing KOTOR with my boyfriend, I decided I wanted a lightsaber. A rainbow coloured one. So I figured, since I can't make a real one, I'll have to settle for PhotoShop.

I was so pleased with the result, I made some in other colours! I figured, I don't need so many for myself, why not share?

So here's the result, my Lightsaber shop! Buy them for your friends, put them in your sig, put them on your website, I'm very easygoing!

News: November 7th: As promised, I have started my first SuperCustom auction. It's going on now, and will run for a week. You can check it out here! Come wish me luck, bump, bid, whatever biggrin

News: October 28th: In light of the new Avatar 2.0 system, I've altered the pricing for my avatar edits to reflect the new selection and complexity of these types of orders. They are now a flat rate of 1000 gold for customs or standards.

News: October 25th: As you may or may not have noticed, the Super-Custom option has gone missing. This wasn't an archving accident, I'm just so inundated in orders that I honestly no longer enjoy, I've decided to limit myself to one a month. Starting in November, I will be holding an auction at some point near the beginning of the month, for one Super-Custom saber. If you've got something in mind, now's the time to start planning it out.

News: October 20th: Added a festive new orange & black saber! Ooo. Aaa.

News: September 5th: I'm back from vacation, and the shop's open. So are the SuperCustoms. So if you've been planning something, now's the time to let me know! Hurry, before I get too backlogged! ^.~

News: July 16th: After a brief closure, I'm open again. Feel free to order your little black guts out.

News: July 12th: Chiharu's saber has been removed, due to people taking it without understanding, and people filling the shop with false or un-needed sympathy. If you knew her, you know what I'm talking about, and you still want the saber, feel free to PM me. I just think it's time to let go.

News: July 10th: New item! Super-Special, if you will. Those of you who are awaiting supercustoms might like the special quality of the new Lightabow. No, that wasn't a typo. It's a bow & arrow set, somewhat inspired by the new film King Arthur. It's a bit pricey at 1K, but it well worth it, I think smile

News: June 27th: New special edition series released, Birthstone Sabers smile One available for each month, they cost 500 gold.

News: June 15th: Due to the complex orders I've been getting, and the amount of backlog that's piling up, I'm afraid I've decided to take down the Supercustoms option indefinitely. It's not gone forever, but I will be ignoring any orders for that section until further notice. Thank you for understanding. To those of you who have already ordered and paid for something in that category, don't worry, it will get done soon smile . It's just new orders I'm putting a halt on.

News: June 11th: Jeez. I'm just a lean (well, ok, not so lean) mean updatin' machine! I've got something new to present, the Hikari-To, or Light-Blade. Merging two overly-popular forms of weapons, and encouraging myself to stretch my limits, I've curved the lightsaber, lengthened and wrapped the handle, and produced a light-katana. Just what everyone needs. Right? ninja !

News: June 9th: There's been a bit of a lull in updating, but the number of complex Supercustom or Animated orders has been preventing me from working on side projects. I've finally managed to complete something new, and just a little bit different. Still saber-related, but a bit of a deviation. I've come up with (what I think to be) gorgeous Power Crystals, in a decorative mounting! More expensive than my usual wares, they cost 1000 gold. They were difficult and time-consuming to make, but I think well worth it. I played with several different designs before deciding on the final one, and before making them all uniform. I hope you tried-and-true-collectors will be as happy with them as I am! Thanks again for supporting my shop.

News: May 12th: After a pretty unpleasant downtime on my site, the shop's back in order. Due to popular demand, I've made available separate Nitemare and Angelic blades, for 500 gold each. The dual blade is still available also.

News: April 16th: For the Nitemare or Angelic collector, a new dual bladed Special Edition - the Nitemare/Angelic "Agony & Ecstasy" Blade!

News: April 13th: Got bored, got inspired, made adorable, collectible little Pixel sabers!

News: April 11th: I have discovered there's someone named Mr. Maniac who makes absolutely beautiful custom lightsabers with very fancy individual hilts, but only for people RPing Jedi. If you come to me asking to reproduce one of his works, I will refuse. I don't care how much gold I'm offered, copying someone else's hard work is insulting and rude to both of us, and unimaginative on the part of the person ordering. If you want one of his, find a way to become a Jedi.

News: April 1st: Inspired to get off my butt by Ayama-Chan, I've released the special edition Easter Saber smile

News: March 17th: With the help of the lovely and talented Kokoryta, the shop's been reorganized for your convenience. You can either scroll down and read the entire page, or click one of these convenient links to go directly where you'd like to (because of the way Gaia works, these will all open in new windows):

1) To order, please post in this thread with what you would like. If you're ordering a custom job, be as descriptive as possible. Use the samples as an example if you can. I know previously I said to PM me, but that's getting way too hectic, so please just post here instead. It's easier for me, and it earns you more gold wink

2) Start a trade with the total amount. When I receive the gold (ie: confirmed on both sides) I will start the saber(s).

3) Don't PM me asking where your saber is. I get a lot of PMs and these clutter up my inbox.

4) No direct linking!! I can't afford it. If you want to put your lightsaber into your sig, be sure you have a place to host it first. I generally delete the images a few days after I send them to you, so if you direct link, be prepared to have a nice red X in your sig eventually.

5) Be polite to me and my friends/staff. Being rude and demanding, or insulting people in this shop, will get your order cancelled and you banned from the shop.

6) If I send you your saber and there's something wrong with it, or it's not the way you envisioned, I will edit/change it once. I try to satisfy my customers as much as possible, but with my busy schedule I can't spare the time to re-do your saber more than that. But I will strive to get it right the first time! And no-redos on Animateds, I'm afraid. That's just WAY too much work.

7) I reserve the right to refuse any order based on time constraints, difficulty, or personal judgement. That means if I don't like you for whatever reason, all the gold in Gaia may not get you a saber if I'm feeling cranky. I'm sorry, but that's the way it goes.

Basics - Premade 1 colour units, single-bladed, in green, blue, red, yellow, & purple - 300 gold

Basic Colour Power Crystals - Decorative lightsaber power crystals, available in the five basic colours: blue, green, red, purple, yellow - 1000 gold (highly priced due to the complexity of them. They're not necessary for buying a saber, simply something for the avid collector of shiney pretties.

Avatar Edits- Due to the complexity of the new avatar system, and the myriad positions, avatar edits of any standard or custom saber is now 1000 gold. Animation is an extra 1000 gold.

Pixel-Sabers - They're small, they're cute, they're collectible! Only 50g each, or grab the entire set for the discounted price of 200g!

Special Editions (Note, these are NOT limited, just.. "special" wink - 500 gold *The Nitemare Angelic Saber is 750 gold, due to complexity*

Lightsabow: While technically in the Special Editions category, this bow was complex enough to warrant a higher price tag of 1000 gold.

Customs - Up to 3 colour blends, customizeable handle/button colours, special effects (sparks, stars, etc). Can also be 2-sided, but be aware these are generally too large for a Gaian signature. I can resize them to the right size, but they look funny. - 500 gold

Animated Custom - Animated sabers are now priced differently. If you're not sure how this new system works, post what you want and I will give you the full price. I realized it was unfair to both myself and to the customers who order very simple animations, that a flat rate for all animated sabers is not reflective of that.

From now on, the pricing structure for animated sabers is as follows - Each effect will cost 500gold. So if you only want one effect (glowing, flashing sparks, rolling sparks, flames, smoke, etc), the cost is the base price for a custom (500) plus the animation cost (500). So a total of 1K.

If you were to want two effects, it would be base cost (500) plus two effects (500*2=1000), so the total would be 1.5k. Each additional effect will cost another 500 gold.

I realize this dramatically increases the prices of some orders, but I just cannot handle charging the same price for a saber with a simple glowing blade that may take an hour to make as I would for a saber with a glowing blade, flaming tendrils, rolling sparks, rolling smoke, and anything else you can think of, that may take several days or even a week to complete. It's not fair to you guys, and it's not fair to me.

If you have any questions, please feel free to post here. I will do my best to address them.

Tried and true, based off of colours found in the Star Wars movies. These blades are clean, simple, utilitarian, and budget-concious at only 300 gold.

New! Lightsaber power crystals, housed in decorative silver mountings. These are not necessary to own a lightsaber, merely a beautiful collectible item. They are available in the basic colours: blue, green, red, purple, and yellow. Due to the complex nature of these, and the amount of time it took to create them, they cost 1000 gold. Samples are shown the actual size of 300 by 300 pixels.

These adorable little cuties can be yours for only 50 gold!! They're small, pixelly, and certainly won't get much done, but they're cute!

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

I can do one- or two-sided lightsabers, but please note that the two-sided ones are longer than 500 px, which is the recommended maximum signature size for Gaia. If you plan on using them on a website, they're a-ok, but if you want to put one into your sig, let me know and I will resize it to 500 pixels. But bear in mind it will lose some detail, and the text will look larger.

Some sample customs:
Please note that these are SAMPLES, one-of-a-kind, and <b>not available for sale</b>. I've had several people try to buy them, and I just can't do that, I'm sorry. I can make you a custom blade with similar accents though:

2-colour blend with handle accents for me (Moonblossom):

Hurray! A new Hallowe'en themed Lightsaber, just in time This one, as usual, is 500 gold.

The Lightsabow. I've been working on this for a while (those of you who know my Supercustoms will understand that I really have to take my time with fancy things, for health concerns). I saw King Arthur last night, and it gave me the boost I needed to get it finished. This is probably one of the most complex things I've created recently, and so it's got an elevated pricetag of 1000 gold. Like the Hikari-To, this item is sold only as-is, and is not customizeable.

New, a whole SERIES of special editions! This time, they're Birthstone Sabers biggrin Like most other specials, they cost 500 gold. If, however, you're the wacky collector type (you know who you are!) and want to purchase all twelve, I'm knocking off a full 1000 gold (that's an entire Pink Link!) and making the package deal available for 5000 gold.

User Image

The actual sabers are the same size as the default ones, the sample list is just shrunken down to save some space. Available are:
January - Garnet
February - Amethyst
March - Aquamarine
April - Diamond
May - Emerald
June - Pearl
July - Ruby
August - Peridot
September - Sapphire
October - Tourmaline
November - Topaz
December - Turquoise

Now, I know that birthstones can vary from time to time, depending on beliefs, cultures, and just general knowledege. I chose the most common ones I could find, but if you were born in a specific month and are more comfortable with a different birthstone, I am more than willing to accommodate and make you a suitable one for the same price, 500 gold.

I present to you the Hikari-To, Light-Blade, a lightsaber katana. Merging two distinct and deadly weapons, for the ultimate warrior. Like most of the other special editions, this one costs 500 gold.
User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

Finally, a non-holiday Special Edition. This Nitemare Angelic blade is the ultimate in duality, one blade imbued with the power of Holy Light, the other side smothered in Demonic Shadow. For those of you who aren't sure where you lie, or those of you who just love those sets This one will come with both a fullsized large saber for a website or collection page, as well as a 500 pixel wide edition, suitable for your Gaian Signature.
Due to the complexity of this particular saber, as well as the smaller signature image, the price is slightly higher than the usual Specials, at 750 gold. Thank you for understanding.

Due to popular demand, I'm making officially listed/available this saber in hand-held form. As with all other avatar edits, the price is 1000 gold.

New: Single-sided Angelic or Nitemare only blades are now available for 500 gold. They look the same as half of the two-sided one.

Spring has sprung! And so has this new Easter Edition lightsaber With an adorable pastel blade and a hilt all painted up like an egg, it just screams "bunnies and chickies".

Not had many events recently? That little face eluding you? Sounds like you need the Luck O' The Irish! This special edition St. Patrick's Day saber comes complete with a Kelly green blade, and a handle made of pure Leprechaun gold emblazoned with a lucky shamrock. If this doesn't bring you more events, I don't know what will!
disclaimer: Saber will not actually encourage more events. It's random.

Feb 14th! Valentine's Saber! Cause nothing says "I Love You" like pink floating hearts of light!
User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

Sith Red Double-Ended Saber! Are you too cool to be good? Are you down with the Dark Side? This, my friend, is your saber! At a low low 500 gold, how can you say no to double the slicing power?
User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

Pimp Saber! Complete with solid gold handle, ruby power switch, and a 32 carat diamond embedded in the pommel. And nothing displays your Pimpitude like a hot pink blade!:

Are you a happy, colourful person? Someone who wants to show off their love for bright and shiny things? Or maybe you want to show the world your pride? If so, the first special edition, Rainbow, is for you:
User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

For 1000 gold you can have a custom animated saber. This will have between 2 and 4 frames, and either a glowing effect, or a chasing effect, and also the option for flashing or fading sparks/stars.

Kokoryta's original Uberpimp Blade, with Chasing effect:

when shrunken down to 500 pixels wide.

Dukes' Custom with Rolling Sparkles:

Aquafire's Custom with Flame Tendrils (this sort of effect can be done with simple bands of colour too):
User Image

KimCL's Custom with Glowing Blade and Flashing Sparks:
User Image

A simple sig image not enough for you? I can also add one of the 5 basic coloured sabers into your avatar's hand for 1000 gold! I'd like to thank Augh for the idea, and Jiedos for being my first guinea pig. Please note that these images are only for signatures and websites - your main Gaia avatar CANNOT hold things made by users.

THIS LIST IS INCREDIBLY OUT-OF-DATE AND I NO LONGER HAVE THE PATIENCE TO UPDATE IT. If you see someone not on this list with a saber of mine in their sig, please DO NOT approach them. Just let me know and I will look into it. Thank you. I appreciate people looking out for me, but due to my own laziness innocent people have been getting pestered.
