Commission Prices - Cash and Points

I am posting this journal entry as a way of making a kind of important announcment that I'd like to make to all my friends and watchers who have enjoyed checking out my cartoon artwork for quite a while now... I was able to set up a PayPal account for myself just recently, and I have officially decided to start accepting commissions for cash from now on. In case anybody is wondering, I will still be accepting point commissions for anyone who's interested, but I will also be changing the costs for point commissions to match the costs of money commissions as well; The price changes did not actually take effect until the day after this journal entry was posted, but for those who have point commissions that I'm currently in the middle of working on, they will not at all be affected by the price change, and I will try to get to work on the pictures whenever I get the chance to do so. Speaking of which, I have decided to get rid of the additional costs for the choice of background styles because of it being somewhat unnessecary, and I've also decided to add additional costs for pictures involving three or more characters from now on, in which pictures with just one or two characters involved will not be affected by this change. After giving some thought for how much I've decided to charge for my cartoon artwork, here is a list of prices for each picture that I will be able to draw for everyone:

COMMISSION PRICES (USD / POINTS):

$1.00 / 100 - Black & White Picture (AKA Line Art), One/Two Characters

$2.50 / 250 - Black & White Picture (AKA Line Art), Three Or More Characters

$5.00 / 500 - Colored Picture Without Shading, One/Two Characters

$7.50 / 750 - Colored Picture Without Shading, Three Or More Characters

$10.00 / 1000 - Colored Picture With Shading, One/Two Characters

$12.50 / 1250 - Colored Picture With Shading, Three Or More Characters

Because I'll be making me payments via PayPal for my commissions, I am also curious to know if there's anyone else who is currently accepting cash and/or points for commissions that I'm willing to purchase, so that way I would be able to spend some money or points on some pictures that I could ask to draw as well. In case anyone is wondering, I'll still be accepting art trades, but only to those whom I consider as very close friends to me here on DeviantArt, and I'll even continue doing birthday-themed requests for each month as well. Other than that, I really do hope that I'll be able to draw plenty of pictures for anyone who's interested, and that I'll even make a little extra money for my efforts as a cartoon artist.
