Those two pet edits are the only ones I've done.
The Flame Ardur was from quite a while back,
and the Calico Jahra was from today :)

I would consider combining both commissions in the same
thread if I where to open commissions.

Sneaky double post to Subscribe after forgetting to do so on the first post...

This depends, on the amount of time you put into your banners and edits. Also are the banner images created by you originally, or by someone else? I'll give an estimate after I know a bit more about the process.

For the banners ; Pet images obviously come from Res,
all the swirls, patterns, texts etc I create - ie so its not just a plain coloured background.

The Phoenix Asylum Ho-oh image was provided as part of the request.
Did a couple of edits to it, made a custom border, sorted the texts added
the faded swirls and sparkles on the image in the background.

The 'Needless' text on the banner with the Cyid was also provided as
a part of the request, background images on that where requested, too,
and edited to fit the colour scheme, the spotlight I added & animated as part
of the request.

As for all the others, like said, the only provided image is the Pet Image from
Rescreatu, as it was requested as a part of the order.
Fonts are ones off www.dafont.com , and are ones requested for the
styling on the banner.

Everything else however, the backgrounds, borders, effects, animations I make.

Pet edits of course use a base image from Rescreatu, 
For the Ardur the colour and shading where changed, and fire effects added and made by me
for the Calico Jahra, all the dots where removed from an albino and then patches and slight colour edits where made by hand.

Banners depending on the complexity and if they are animated or not,
can take anywhere between half an hour to an hour and a half.
I'm very, very fussy about details, and if someone is unsatisfied I spend time and 
re-edit to the detail requested. It's only ever happened once.

I use photoshop CS4 at the moment,
I have no tablet or mouse, I use a mousepad.

I'd say depending on the complexity and time that about 500k to 1.5 mill for the harder things. This is because I like to look at the amount of time it takes for the user and the conversion to credits and monetary worth.  That said I think it's still worth more but considering how cheap the art commission people make on this site are, you wouldn't be able to get what they're actually worth.

Thanks for your opinion,
I think I'll hang around for a little longer see what
a few people reckon before thinking about opening
up a shop in the Commissions forums. :)

I don't think I'd dare price them for 3mil,
I'd feel like I was robbing people if I did x)

Glad that people seem to like them though ^^

Actually no you wouldn't be robbing people at all, it's nice to see someone else who'd pay a nice amount. As I said before I think they'd be worth more.

Love the Phoenix one XD I think your prices should differ depending on the size as well as the complexity. For the Phoenix banner, I'd pay about 2 mil, give or take.
