What to say when an artist quotes your commission higher than you expected:

  • “Thank you for the quote, I’ll keep it in mind and get back to you sometime when I’m able to commission you!”
  • “That’s a little out of my budget for the time being, but thank you for your time. I’ll contact you again if/when I am able to pay!”
  • “I appreciate the quote, but i’ve decided to wait on the commission, thank you!”
  • “I understand your prices and that they are fair, but I am unable to afford this for the time being! Good luck on the rest of your commissions.”

What NOT to say when an artist quotes your commission higher than you expected:

  • “WAHHHHHHHHHHH”
  • “@-@ Holy crap that’s expensive!!”
  • “Could you maybe give me a tumblr follower discount? :3”
  • “Your prices are too high!!!!”
  • “Really?? Just for a sketch? I could draw it for half that!!”

Treat artists like human beings. We gotta eat too. Commissioning an artist is not different from any other contract work. You’re not going to ask your dentist for a discounted root canal or tell your contractor his cabinets are too expensive, don’t ask artists to change their prices because you perceive them as too high. More than likely, an artist taking commissions from the internet are drastically under charging themselves already. Please be respectful and understanding that art is a skill and not a favour.

Guide: How To Earn Gems

0

line-play-daily:

The question on everyone’s mind is, “how do I make more gems so I can decorate my crib / make myself the prettiest, most awesome avatar around?” I’m writing an overview of different ways to make gems here. If I am missing something or any information is wrong/outdated, please send me a message letting me know so I can fix it.

The fast & dirty:

  • The absolute quickest way to get gems, bar none, is to whip out that credit card and flat out buy them. You can buy various amounts of gems at once, or you can buy a gem pass which will give you 20,000 gems straight up and 3,000 gems each day for the next thirty days you log-in to the game.
  • My biggest advice here is to wait for a bonus sale. LINE PLAY often has sales on gems in which you can get 20-50% extra. That’s the best time to buy them! (By the way – while this is not directly related to earning gems, it’s good to keep in mind that there are often sales on gachas or shop items as well. Sometimes it helps to wait until you see one before spending all your gems on the newest shiniest Sugar Bon Bon outfit!)

Reoccurring methods:
Reoccurring methods to get gems are ways to get gems that you can do over and over. They’re outlined below:

  • Quests. These are your daily quests that involve 1) hearting 20 people (which gives you 500 gems total – 10 gems for each heart, 300 gems on completion), 2) cleaning up 20 rooms (once again, 10 gems per cleaning an 300 gems on completion), 3) watering 20 plants, and 4) high-fiving 20 people at the square. The fifth quest (fishing up trash) will be covered further below.
  • Needs. Basically, every minute or so, your avatar expresses a desire (to sit somewhere, to clean themselves, or to sleep) and accomplishing this awards you with 10 gems.
  • Hearts. Any time someone gives you a heart, both they and you get 10 gems. Some people have used this to do something called heart trading (see below).
  • Treasure island fishing. You might have noticed I didn’t include this under ‘quests.’ Fishing up 20 pieces of trash will give you 700 gems (for completing the quest & fishing up the trash) but the fishing potion itself normally costs 2000 gems, so this can come out as a loss. But just know that fishing up trash earns you 10 gems per trash. (Fishing can also occasionally fish up chests that contain gems in them.)
  • Daily log-in bonus. Each month, most of the time you log into LINE PLAY you will get some kind of gem bonus. Sometimes you get an item instead, though, and the last few days of the month usually don’t have this available.
  • Games. Playing the additional games available within LINE PLAY can earn you gems. (Some have daily quests you can complete, others will occasionally also award some small amounts of gems for playing a game, etc.)
  • Recycling. This isn’t exactly a way to make new gems, but you can sell/delete your various items through the recycling screen (the left-most button when viewing your closet or inventory). Recycling awards you back 5% of the (gacha) cost of the item, and this doubles to 10% on Mondays. Note that there are items (such as event items or cash gacha items) that do not have a recycle value, although they can still be deleted. (Also a non-gem related tip: you can only store 3000 items - closet & interior combined - on your account.)
  • Heart trading. This is an unofficial way that people make money through the use of multiple accounts / multiple avatars and heart trading setups. See the link for more details. This blog does not engage in heart trading so please don’t ask us for further information, as we won’t be able to help you.

Limited Gem Bonuses
Some ways to get gems are limited (whether in time or quantity). However, note that some of these ways can be pretty lucrative until they dry up!

  • Invitation codes. This is the thing you can access from your profile and it involves avatars already within LINE PLAY. You can enter 10 people’s codes and 20 people can enter your code. When you do this, both you and the other person get 1k gems for each code you/they use.
  • Invites. Not to be confused with the above, this is what you can do under ‘add friends’ to 'invite’ people to play LINE PLAY. You can invite up to 200 people per account (which does not reset if you delete your avatar) to get 1000 gems per invite as well as a few other bonuses on some milestones. Occasionally there have been double invite events (which grant you 2000 gems each invite) so it may be prudent to wait until one of those happens. This can be done on LINE accounts by adding usernames through your LINE app and then inviting them on LINE PLAY (you can often do this with accounts you don’t personally know!), or on Facebook-linked accounts by inviting your facebook friends. Twitter-linked accounts cannot use this feature.
  • Fruit monsters invites. You can invite LINE PLAY friends from within the fruit monsters 'app.’ After inviting 50, you get a 30k gem bonus.
  • Official avatar quest bonuses. Occasionally there is a specific official avatar/character whose room you can visit which gives you bonus gems for a week. ie. you can clean, water, & heart the avatar for 60 gems - 180 gems total, or 150 gems more than doing the same to a regular avatar. Usually at least one of these special bonuses exists each week.
  • Fishing collection bonuses. If you fish in treasure island and fill up a 'page’ of your fishing book, you get a one-time bonus of gems.
  • Event bonuses. Sometimes there are events that award bonus gems or hearts. Usually these events cost an outlay of gems, though, so whether you actually profit in gems is another question.

GEM TLDR: Daily quests can earn you at least 2000 gems a day if you complete them, not including the fishing one. Obviously, logging in daily to collect the log-in reward helps, too!
In terms of limited ways to get gems, invitation codes and the invite bonus (both for the app itself and for fruit monsters) are probably the fastest way to get a decent amount of gems quickly.

Okay, great! But what about cash? What is it, and how do I get it?
To wrap this up, let’s talk about cash. Cash is the premium currency on LINE PLAY, which means that it can (normally) only be obtained by actually buying it. There have been occasional events that reward really small amounts of cash (around 5 or 10), but these often require a high gem expenditure and cannot be counted on to guarantee you cash. If you’re not willing to buy cash, you should probably assume you’re not going to be getting most cash-related items, sorry.
