There is a decent market for graphics if you are better than most, although the market on Hackforums is the second shittiest section right after the lounge. I am also not sure why omni gets the hate he does as he makes a living off the website so he is obviously going to do what is in his interest.
The graphics market has VERY low standards. I've seen a few shops with lq designs, high prices, and a ton of vouches.
That's how I saw it last time. I actually don't charge much. I charged $15 for 5 HQ userbars one time, which is a pretty darn good deal. I've heard of userbars being sold for $50, $100, and ridiculous prices. I think there was a contest that awarded winner $150 on HF.
Yea, because groups on HF are worth upwards of 5k last time I saw and around 13k at peak, userbars fetch a high value.
Shit. I wouldn't mind making userbars for groups over there.

That's actually pretty cheap for 5 UB's. But $50 is far too much. Most of the time they're just recolors with different text.
I make them different
