Please dont post your shops in the merchant subs... advertise them there, but I've moved a bunch of dead shops to the art sub today. Your art shop is not very likely to flourish in the merchant sub; I dont think most people look there for avi art and commissioning signature art and banners.
I could be wrong... so vote accordingly in the poll and let me know. If you all want the art shops on the merchant sub, I'll move them all back!
[EDIT] I just made a sticky in the Merchant Sub-forum for the Artists to use as a place to advertise their shops. Please post banners, links or just promote your shop there, but do remember to actually place the storefront in the art subforum!

You could post a sticky with a title like:
Looking for art stores? Check the Art Subforum!
Then (most) people would know where to look...course, there's always a few people who don't notice stickies...

Oh I know but these stores have nothing going on in them. No replies, very few inquireies about prices or the like... and when i look for art I go to the art sub, personally... we'll see what the poll turns up and act accordingly. I think making the storefront in the art forum and advertising the shop in the merchant sub is a good idea, personally. get double exposure!

Yeah I'll do that right now, thanks Mara. But yes people dont look at stickies; my announcements about closing sales is a good point there!

Yes i always considered the Merchant forum for selling Items not Art.. that's why i made an Art Subforum. I agree with Hime, when i go looking for art i dont check the Merch subfourm at all.

What does this mean exactly? you think we should remove the art sub? if you are going to comment in a sticky like this, make it RELEVANT and USEFUL. Be clear and not idiotic; you see we mods dont like "Clutter" either.

This is an easy one.
Make a sticky within the merchanct subforum with links to the avvy art shops. Place the art shop threads within the art sub forum.
An avvy art shop is both a place to showcase art as well as a shop in itself. Therefore appealing to both qualities would be best.

this is a mini announcement, but I'll remove it by friday, just to be sure its been seen. This isnt the banner sticky either; theres one in the merchant sub and the art sub too, so everyone can be happy
