How to Create a Commission Form! [Timestamps Included]

[@LeslieLuMarie]

HEY GUYS! I hope this tutorial can be helpful! Taking commissions can be stressful, but using Google Forms can really make things easier! Also here are the timestamps in case there's something specific you're looking for: TIME STAMPS: 01:27 -My Personal Commission Form 07:30 -How to Make Your Own Form 16:40 -Editing the Theme/Colors 17:15 -Previewing Your Form 18:39 -Settings 20:13 -Looking Through the Responses

your voice is SOOO cute.

There is now an option to add files to the form. Nice tutorial btw. Thank you ! :)

Thank you so much 😁

[@MaddieBuilds]

lol im sry i just have to say this. U sound so much like Alison from the pretty little liars show like OMG! I fr thought u were her for a sec 😄 Great video btw! 💕

[@JellomariJei]

How do you get rid of the complete ones? Do you have to make a new sheet each time?

[@AbyssalPrincess]

For anyone wondering you CAN allow people to send references through the form! If you press "add question" and you click on the drop down menu, there's an option for File Uploads.

@@wolfy4425 usually yes because people can put malicious things in, but I think you're more safe if you make the file upload 'image-only'.

Hi, great video, thank you so much 😊 quick question, can you email the form to people, or is it only for a website? Newbie here, many thanks x

[@LeslieLuMarie]

Yes you can! On desktop there should be a button on the top right that says “Send” and there’s a pop-up that allows you to either send the form through an email, copy the link, or the HTML code to embed it somewhere.

lovely video!! i was wondering if you had any advice on how to go about.. getting resubmissions of forms? i want to open my form for 24 hours, close it and then choose a handful of requests to proceed with. and if i were to reopen comms again.. would you personally make people resubmit their forms from scratch? or would you refer back to their previous submission? kind of an odd question sorry but i'd love to hear how you go about this!

[@cursedcat7264]

soo I have a question, so they have to pay you half incase they don't want the art no more, If they do want the art work, they'll have to pay half and than the full price afterwards you finish their art???? I am stuck on that one tbh. Also why do our client have to pay 50% half of the price? is it because if they don't want the art no more than I'll keep the 50% price that I wasted my time on them? I am lowkey confused. please help me-, Since this is my first time as a commissioner and I want to sell my art so my parent would have money too. can someone please Explain to me with accurate details?

Hello! I'm a small artist and I don't have many people interested in my art. Its not that I'm terrible at it because I've had hundreds of "free requests" before but I just don't know how to get anyone to notice me. And if they do, I highly doubt they'll pay more that 10 dollars for a piece of my art... Is there anything I can do to maybe get some attention? I'm trying to save for college and I have yet to get a job so I thought commissions would be a cool side thing for the time being!
