How To's
Most of this is pretty basic stuff, in no particular order. If you have questions about anything you see (or don't see) here please feel free to e-mail me.
Inherent Risks of Blogging:
By ordering from Stryders List you agree that I am not responsible for the personal information (photos, names, etc.) you put on your blog or that you hire me to put on your blog. Basic safety precautions should be taken with all on-line information.
Privacy
I ask that you add me as an author and then as admin but for some reason this is not preferred or does not work, I will need your log in information for blogger. I will NEVER share your e-mail address or any other contact info you may give me with anybody for any reason. I also hold your log-in information strictly confidential. If you're concerned about sharing your password, you can change it temporarily then change it back when I'm done. Too see directions on how to add me as author and admin, see this link.
Order Questionnaire
When placing an order answer each question in my Order Questionnaire as thoroughly as possible and try to submit ALL of the information I'll need to design your blog up front (photos, titles, URL's for links, font preferences, etc.). Information submitted after I start on your design may result in a longer design time and possibly additional charges. If you have something specific in mind for your design please be specific when you place your order. If you're not quite sure what you want, take a few days to think it over before you order. If you have filled out the questionnaire thoroughly there should not be a need for excessive design revisions. I require a finished project that you have done in order to design your blog. **Offer only good for "blogger/blogspot" makeovers and you must provide a finished craft project done by you that you want your new blog design to look like.
Design Process
I'll work on your design on my test blog where you'll be able to view it and give me your feedback as I go. I generally start with the background and build from there. I'll send you the link to my test blog once I get started on your design. My time frame for completing each design is typically 3-10 days and depends on how thoroughly you've completed your Order Questionnaire and how quickly you respond to any e-mails I send to you. It's very helpful if you check your e-mail often while I am working on your design in case I have any questions or need additional information from you. I also ask that you not make any changes to your blog while I am installing your new design.
Design List
I schedule designs in the order that I receive each client's completed order questionnaire, deposit, and payment in full. Once all three criterion are met, your name will be placed on my design list.
Revisions
Revisions are included in the cost of each element of your design, as long as it does not become excessive. If I have to revise something more than twice, or if you change your mind about something that you have specifically asked me to include previously (a certain background page, a certain font, switching out photos you've sent, etc.) you may incur a fee based on the amount of time it will take me to make the change. I charge at a rate of $40/hour.
If you decide to switch your finished project mid-design there WILL be an additional fee to cover the cost of the amount of time I've already spent designing with the initial kit. If you don't like a product once you see it on my test blog, please let me know as soon as possible.
If you decide to switch layouts mid-design there will be a fee totaling the difference between the two layouts + $40 to cover my time to change everything over.
Any revisions after I have installed your design on your blog will be billed at $40/hour.
Payment
All proceeds go toward Stryders List and the medical costs for Stryder.
Payments are accepted via PayPal. You do not need a PayPal account to make a payment. You can use a credit card. A non-refundable $25 deposit is required when you place your order to hold your position on my waiting list. Once I've had a chance to look over your order I'll send you an email with the final total and directions for payment via Paypal. Payment in full is required to begin your design. I bill by the hour for non-package purchases (this includes HTML assistance, Blogger help/tutorials/chatting) at $40/hour.
Refunds/Credits
Due to the nature of blog design, I do not offer full refunds on designs I have started on. If you change your mind before I get started on your design I will be happy to refund your payment minus your deposit, the cost of any digi-scrap kits or iStock images I've purchased for your design, and any PayPal fees.
I determine my costs based on the amount of time it takes me to create/install each item, therefore, I do not credit or switch out items for other items after I've designed them.
Copyright

You may not install your design on additional blogs or use elements from your design on other sites without my written permission (excluding buttons and blinkies that are made to be shared with your readers).
Credit
I credit Stryders List, with a link back to my site, and the designer of any stamp you have used on your project that I use at the bottom of every blog I design. That information is required to remain on your blog as long as you are using the design. If you remove the credit link, you also agree to remove every part of your design created by Stryders List. I place my button that links back to my site in the sidebar of every blog I design. The button may be moved to wherever you prefer and is not required to stay, but I greatly appreciate if it does.
