if you read the following you have very good chances at winning free prizes, from me.
as the community doesn't really care about anything i do unless its free and for them, I'm doing this free prize thing.
rules and such will be detailed here.
and i will update them as soon as anything changes, or someone asks me for an update.
See the Bottom for Previous Winners, that have claimed their prize, and a link to the picture i made them.

Winning Prizes for free?
... tell us less.
-
I'll be making emote, or pixel art related things within my skills, and over all time availability, so, I'll only be able to make what i can, if you describe something I'm not really able to make, i will tell you, and we'll discuss something more, within my abilities for free stuff.
for an example of free quality look at my Free to use icons folder, in my gallery.
[link]now, here's where how you win comes in:
I'm allowing winners for a few different things, page views, commenting, and whatever else i can think of.
_____
OVER ALL RULES: Once a "Winner" is notified, they have a 14 day expiration time, in which they must reply to me, or else i will pass them by, and their icon will be placed in my Previous loser section in this journal.
If anyone would like an Update on this journal, like progress or other things, please comment on this journal, otherwise i may update it whenever i feel like, and that may not be until I'm done with each winner.
After a winner has claimed their Prize i will require they give me credit, in any way i see fit. Usually i have them upload it to there gallery, and they credit me in the artist comment, some times though this is not good, so i will likely make the artist comment my self, for the upload.
Example of Poor Use: Someone had asked if they could use this Avatar

I did not exactly say it could be edited,

but the removal of the cartoon network logo in the corner of my avatar, still doesn't really sit well with me, ... however i didn't tell him he wasn't aloud to edit it before use, so, i just ignore it.
The Rules are subject to change, Please be mindful of such changes.
_____
page view winner rules: I will be making something free for anyone who can prove they've been on my page at certain landmarks, for example the next winner will be at 10,000 page views.
These are the page view landmarks i want to see:
to bad its already over 9,000.
9,999
10,000
10,117
10,151
10,500
10,999
11,000
11,111
11,117
11,151
11,500
11,999
12,000
now, there are things about page views i anticipate, like cheating, or no one getting the mark.
if you are caught cheating, you will not win, ever, you'll be banned from my prizes, but only if your caught.
if you and another person get the same mark, then the first person to prove it wins, by screen shot or other proving means.
if everyone misses it, then the person with the closest proving means, and the first to prove it, wins.
so say you miss 10,000, and everyone else does to, you may try to prove you saw 10,001.
-----
Commenting Winner Rules: This ones fairly simple.
all i want you to do is comment, find a picture in my gallery with little or no comments, and comment on it, now here's what decides if you win or not.
your comment must be constructive and helpful to me, well written, thoughtful, etc.
it must say something about the picture, and state in some way that you want to win the prizes for commenting, you must not make it blatantly obvious that you want to win, other wise you won't, so don't go saying, "i commented do i win?" if you say that, you lose, ... this prize, is to get people to comment, and give me some damn feed back, so that's what i want, some damn feed back.
now, to decide who wins, I'll just be picking the comments i think are best, so, ... think before you comment.
-----
Llama Winner Rules: this is actually not an easy one...
to win a prize for giving me a llama, you have to give me a llama tier, like llama, super llama, ninja llama, etc.
so, the current winner for that is;

gave the 500th Llama. Ninja Llama.
the previous llama's, 100, 50, 10, and 1, either aren't shown, or have been banned or left deviantART.
-----
+Watch Winner Rules: i dunno about this one...
I'll be letting my watching win prizes, simply by watching me, the numbers of these winners are, 1, 10, 25, 50, 75, 100, 117, 125, 150, 151, 175, 200, etc.
so, current winners are;

#2, as number 1, no longer goes on deviantART, and wouldn't give a damn anyway, as i know 1 in real life.

#13, ... as 10 11 and 12, are either banned or left deviantART.

#25, least we got one with the right winning number...

#50... go figure.
i currently have 65 watchers, so, feel free to watch, cause its just 10 more watchers until the next winner.
-----
i could do prizes for favorites, and other things, but i think that's good for now, it really just depends on how this all does if I'm gonna continue it...
Also, you could always donate points, or commission me with points:
this information is also on my donations pool.

80 Points = $1.00
2,400P = Premium membership.
I'm taking commissions:
inanimate icons, PC cursors, and other simple things = 20P = $0.25
animated and more complex things = 80P = $1.00
even more complex things, like complete sprite pages = 400P = $5.00
the most complex things i could do = 800P / 1600P = $10.00 / $20.00
-----
i also do art trades, and occasionally requests.
please comment anywhere for more details, but don't note me, ... i don't like being noted.
!WARNING!
Do not send me your points until my work has been completed if you are commissioning me.
Points given prematurely will not be sent back.
I will show you my work in a way so that you will not be able to steal it, at least, steal it with good quality, so don't try to skimp me either.
!SO BE CAREFUL!
!YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Previous Losers: People that do not respond within the expiration date of the offer, or otherwise.

Currently working on: Last Updated; 5:29 PM 5/10/2013

In "Creation" Process.
5% Complete: General Idea established.
Concept: jedimasterk would like an Avatar of her Character "Shotdown"
[link]Example(s): She would like the Avatar to be a headshot like the following icons;

and animated like this one;

Calculated Difficulty Level/probability of completion 0 being not going to happen 10 being it should probably already be done: 6
At this time, my internet sucks, this shouldn't have an effect on my work sense i work offline anyway, but it seems to effect me quiet a lot, also with it being animated, though only simply with half eye movement and shading, that shouldn't take longer then 10 minutes to do, in short this Icon would take me about an hour and a half to make, or less, of straight work, i give it a 6 because I'm bored out of my damn mind, and i usually just laze around when I'm bored out of my mind.
