There are several factors that have prevented me from completing a few of my recent pics, and I just felt it was time to emphasize what is stated in BOLD at the bottom of my commission page.. in fact, i'll add it to the top, too...
there is only one person who has contacted me directly and stated a time/times he will be available for the commission at this point, and he knows who he is.
in fact, speaking of the bold i will add it here with extra emphasism for any future commissioners as well:
Basically, this is a collaborative effort. I don't know what's in your mind, and It is pretty much a guarantee that I will not share your interests. when you pay me, I take it that you will have enough interest in the outcome of your commission to see it through.. this attention to detail is what is included in the package.
Yes, this means to bug me as much as possible whenever you're available...even if i'm (somehow) offline i will always receive and READ your messages..they do not simply fade away.

***VERY IMPORTANT: Please contact me/leave me your contacts on an Instant Messenger. I use MSN, AIM, and Skype. discussing details of your commission beyond your initial request via Notes leads to alot of us missing eachother by a few minutes to a few hours.. instant messengers allow you to reach me and catch my attention immediately!
The time I take on your commission completely depends on your ability to keep in contact. I can finish a commission immediately after payment in a single sitting if you are available to join me in an Open Canvas session at that moment. If you drop money on me and disappear for 6 months, it's probably going to take about that long to finish it. For this reason i almost never accept money until you are available yourself. I'm not going to draw something that is GENERALLY what you paid for. I want to make the artwork 100% accurate to what it is you want, and if you are there to watch, I can do that quickly and efficiently. I am as interested in your commission as YOU are. If you are unable to join me in a session, let me know when you are asking for the commission, and I'll make arrangements to finish the artwork alone and show you progress. This will always take longer, but as long as I know you will not be available, it will keep things moving.
Also, Please refrain from telling me you plan on commissioning me. just tell me when you actually are. I get dozens of people saying they plan on doing so, and then nothing comes of it. It's better to just not commission me silently.Basically, this is a collaborative effort. I don't know what's in your mind, and It is pretty much a guarantee that I will not share your interests. when you pay me, I take it that you will have enough interest in the outcome of your commission to see it through.. this attention to detail is what is included in the package.

what exactly is the worst that could happen?
you get something in return for your money? you get your money back?
am i threatening to kill people, here? I really don't get it.
i've been completely displeased with the commission subjects i've gotten (all two of them) for like 4+ years now.. there's nothing new here...except i'm letting more people know that there are other things that can be commissioned in general.
My feelings on the matter are irrelevant if you still enjoy what comes of it
