All right, I'm going to be clear here. I don't want there to be this whole thing where money is an issue. However, I need money. I like money. Therefore, I will start taking commissions.

Prices: (All are in USD)
$6.00 for a standard picture (1 or 2 characters, no background)
+ $2.00 for each additional character past 2
+ $0.75 for a basic background, like a simple gradient or line of shading on an otherwise solid background
+ $1.50 for a more detailed background, one where you can tell what's what
$10.00 for a drawing-quality 4koma (I.E. Better than the Quiche 4komas)

I will still be taking free requests; however, they cannot have backgrounds added onto them, or include more than two characters; if all you want is the two characters and none of those frills, you can just request that and save your money. Or you can pay anyway, it's up to you. Paid commissions will be expedited instead of having to wait at the bottom of the list until everything else is done first. Requests that are listed but not yet completed can be paid as commissions, and can have any of the extra options listed above added to them.
