Welcome guest
Hello and welcome to Mesmeric. This is a banner requesting site made and owned by me, Maddie. Here I offer you custom banners that are sure to add a little flare to any page! This site was formerly know as Understatement, but I grew tired of the name, and decided to change it to Mesmeric. This site has been open since the afternoon of June 24, 2011 and is best viewed in google chrome. Enjoy your stay!

I closed requests because I've made so many banners today, that I kind of want to take a break. They'll be open again in like two days, so don't worry. In the meantime, I'll slowly add one or two premades each day that requests are closed. Today I went overboard and added 14 banners to the premades page, and finished two requests. I'm tired.
Yay! I made another set of request status signs! Be sure to check them out! ^^

I received two requests last night, but I completed both of them, so requests are still open!

Well, I had no requests to complete today, so I finally redid the banner on my userlookup. I did a name banner this time, and used fun summer themed colors. It's nothing extravagant, but it sure does catch your eye!

Well, I received one request, but I already completed it, so the list is completely empty.
I'm looking for some new high quality buttons, so if you're willing to make a button, please neomail me. I would really appreciate it!
Well, I accidentally deleted all of my neomail, so I lost one of the two requests. If that was you please neomail me again. On the brightside, I finished one banner, so requests are now open!
YAY!!!!! Today was the last day of my sophomore year in high school! I'm a soon to be junior! Anyway, I'll catch up on neomails first, then start on requests. For those of you who repeatedly neomail me, I DON'T GET ON NEO EVERYDAY! Please only send the neomail once, or I will ignore you. Sorry if that sounds harsh, but give it a break. It's only Neo.

Requests are now closed. I've accepted two requests, which is a low number, I know that. The problem though is, I have finals this week until Thursday {last day of school}, so I don't want to stress myself out with worrying about how many requests I may have piling up. I hope ya'll understand ^^

Yay! As promised, requests are now open! I'm in a super good mood, but you guys may have already figured that out from reading my updates hahaha!
Whoa! I just did a huge link sweep and deleted all affiliates that were inactive for more than three weeks. I only have nine affies now. You should apply if you own a site. ^-^
Alright, the first time I made this layout, it had a little white strip that said "custom and premade banners by maddie." The problem with that though was that you couldn't read the text. Well... you could if you squinted. Anyway, it really started to bother me, so I went and cut that part out, filled the empty space with the same purple color, and then redid the text. It looks a lot better don't you think?
I've finished two banners so far, and am currently working on the third one. Requests might open up in about an hour or two. No later than tonight though folks! Also, there are only 4 more days of school left for me. Wish me luck on finals!
Requests are now closed. I'll pick and sort through my mail in a little bit, and then get started on requests. I'm seriously in the banner making mood today!

Well, I completed that last request, but received another, so there is still one person on the waiting list. I'll get it done this weekend, or possibly earlier.
May 14, 2012 - 4:01pmNST
Yay! I got the "newest banners" section coded. All I have left to do now is to finish that one last request. Requests are still open though.
Thanks for all the compliments on the layout everyone! I'm glad all that hard work paid off.
Since requests haven't been open for about a week and a half now, I have decided to open them. I still have one person on the waiting list, but I have the image and everything planned out, so that should only take me about 15 minutes.
I am now listed at the new directory Volaticus. Be sure to check it out!

Well, I made the new request signs, so all I have left to do is code the "new banners" section, and finish that last banner request.
Alright, I finished editing the colors, I just need to code the newest banners section, and make new request status signs. I think all that, and that one banner request might have to wait until this weekend, because I don't get on Neo during weekdays.
I spent all day making this layout. I will open requests later, and also edit link colors, signs, etc. I'm not entirely finished with all the coding for the layout such as the "newest banners" section.
First off, happy mothers day to all those mothers out there! Second, my layout request at Rambo didn't get accepted, so I'm closing requests for now, and trying to make a new layout myself. Wish me luck! ^-^

Rules
Only ONE banner per month. I know it seems harsh, but I have the same people requesting over and over again, so I want everyone to have a chance.
I do not do redo banners unless it is clearly my fault (spelling, wrong image, etc.)
I honestly don't care if you don't use the banner I made you. I won't feel bad at all! Make sure to look through the portfolio first to see if you like my banner making style though {portfolio}
Do not try to take off the credit that I have placed on the banner.
If you use any of my premade, or custom banners, you MUST leave the link on the image that leads here, or put a link to here somewhere in your credits.
I get to pick and choose what requests I want to take. There is NO first come, first served basis here.
Pickup
Banners will remain in the pickup area for one week, or until I get a response from you. If you do not see your banner here, try looking in my portfolio. Drag and drop to see the actual size. Remember to credit. Enjoy! ~Maddie

F.A.Q.
What fonts do you use?
I use a lot of fonts, so I can't name them all. My favorite ones though are: Stars From Our Eyes, Cumulus Light, and Wendy Medium.
Can you make me a layout?
First off, you have to be kidding me. I am horrible at making layouts. They are such poor quality, and I am very bad at coding as well. I'm still very flattered that someone even asked! The answer is still no though.
Can you make an exception for me? I need a banner really quick.
Depending on the situation, I might help you out.
