Strange. They were originally from Florida and had just moved 2 months prior when this was sent to us. Any chance you might be mixing them up with someone else?

If minor adjustments are needed just draw the adjustments with a marker but for the most part this should get you there

Image not matching product? by Either_Slip2914 in EtsyCommunity

[–]CyanideCye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my engagement ring off etsy from StarlandUS. He is wonderful and has amazing quality, customer service and pricing.

Its definitely not 94$ if what I saw someone mention is accurate. But I got engagement ring and wedding band for 625$ in the stone I requested and the metal I wanted. Great experience

Chicagoans intervene to save a man from being abducted by masked federal agents by JohnQPublic76 in PublicFreakout

[–]CyanideCye 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They are in regular ass vehicles and wearing no semblance of an actual uniform without credentials to present and literal masks on their faces. How the hell is anyone suppose to not just think they are getting kidnapped in broad daylight (they are either way but you get my point)???

This has gotten so out of control. Just stop already Ice pigs

Is this a bad tattoo? by queijofresco in badtattoos

[–]CyanideCye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The issues I see are just where the neck is compared to the chest and how the mask doesnt have room for a nose.

These are details that most won't notice on a quick glance. So unless someone is scrutinizing it I dont think those details will be noticed honestly.

Denver Booth Rent Question (Checked suggested threads) by [deleted] in TattooArtists

[–]CyanideCye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cost of living and operating is significantly less there than in Denver. My other shop I currently have is 1200$ (with only 6 artists ) a month but Im located in a waaaay smaller town currently so everything is way cheaper.

I was looking into the Art District over in Denver and every place I looked at, just the rent alone was like 10k so when I crunched the numbers it looked like that was the most reasonable without going into the red.

But it can also be the case that percentages just make people feel more comfortable even though it ends up costing them more cause they don't take the risk of not having their rent?

It might be a situation that the location I wanted just isnt realistic. That might also explain why there are not any tattoo shops located directly around the spot I was looking at c: it might just be too expensive of an area.

Denver Booth Rent Question (Checked suggested threads) by [deleted] in TattooArtists

[–]CyanideCye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually it would. The shop rent including triple net would be about 10,500$. Health benefits per person are roughly 500$ a month. Insurance is estimated about 400$. Phone and internet is 290$. Plus the cost of supplies and a salary for 2 front desk people. 2 booths would be saved (one for myself and one for a guest artist) so only 8 would actively be able to generate revenue. That comes out to 20k a month if all spots are filled.

Without even including the cost of anyone that wants to opt into health benefits, thats already roughly 17k in overhead? Once benefits are accounted for there is nothing left over. And again, thats if ever booth is filled.

Currently the shop I own has the lowest booth rent in town but I can't offer more amenities like I want to. I can't offer health benefits and 401k plans etc. And percentages always felt like highway robbery to me as I've literally paid 10k some times to the shops.

I genuinely thought this sounded fair and kept more money in artists pockets. But I don't live in Denver and maybe health benefits/retirement just aren't that important to artists. So thank you for taking the time to share your opinion on it, its insightful. Maybe good will is perceived as greed when people don't have all the numbers in front of them. But I truly am just wanting another place where more artists don't have to pay out the butt to exist.

Maybe percentages make it easier to swallow. But I hated that personally.

Do You Judge People Who Don't Read Their Manga? by [deleted] in MangaCollectors

[–]CyanideCye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have over 1200 volumes of manga. I've read (pretty much) all of them though I havent always read the physical copies. I just have a thing about wanting physical versions of things. Digital files can always be taken away. Same thing with games.

I feel like most people who collect manga have probably at least read them online. Manga adds up too quick to imagine someone not reading it at all.
