Just some clarity

Due to my recent step up in activity with uploading art, I've gotten questions referring to my status of doing art for others; whether I'm doing requests, commissions, etc. So, I thought I'd clear things up here. I haven't been on dA as often as I used to be and because of this, I do not update my profile as often with info such as to whether I am currently open for these types of requests.

Requests - I have no set system for requests. I do them at random times and usually only for my friends/people I know on dA. I might occasionally do a gift or request if I'm bored, but not always.

Commissions - I stopped selling my art for points a while ago--mostly because I don't really have the need for points at the moment. I might try again, but I'm not sure yet. I used to sell my art for a mere five points, but I feel like I've improved enough where it is worth more than that. Because I'm not really in need of points, I was playing with the idea of getting a paypal and getting real money for my art. I know this isn't the most convenient method of getting art, but I kinda do need money right now so...

Art trades - I do art trades most frequently, but usually it is only to friends and/or when the person requesting the trade matches my skill in art. No offense, but I do not like working hard on a piece and getting something that looks like a five-year-old's drawing in return.

I hope this clears some stuff up. Feel free to ask any questions.
