Welcome to Gaia! ::

UPDATES
October 14:
1) Since the bids have gone up, I have changed the minimum bid increment to 5000g (people have using this increment already, but I though I may as well make it official)
2) I'm going to try a slightly different way of determining the end of the auction, more like a real auction than an ebay auction. Instead of the winner being the one who manages to post their bid before the auction expires, the art should go to the highest bidder, shouldn't it? So, when we get to 11:59 pm you can continue to bid. When no one bids for 10 minutes, I will post something like "xxxk GOING ONCE!" if someone bids again the timer is reset. If no one bids, I will post "xxxk GOING TWICE" and wait another 10 minutes, resetting if someone bids. If no one bids, then the highest bidder wins. It's not really that complicated, it just works the way real auctions work.

Essentials
Ok, enough of that yammering, let's get down to business. You are biddng on a colored, full-body digital painting of one (1) character and no background.

The auction starts now, Oct 12.
It ends on Friday Oct 20, 11:59pm (midnight) CST*

*When we get to 11:59 pm you can continue to bid. When no one bids for 10 minutes, I will post something like "xxxk GOING ONCE!" if someone bids again the timer is reset. If no one bids, I will post "xxxk GOING TWICE" and wait another 10 minutes, resetting if someone bids. If no one bids 10 minutes after the second prompt, then the highest bidder wins. Basically it will end when I say, "SOLD!" razz It's not really that complicated, it just works the way real auctions work.
