Getting Started
If you are on this page, you probably want to know some more about creating or buying Custom Decors on Lioden! The part about creating them requires a bit more explaining to do, so we will start with this, and then touch upon the subject of purchasing and selling Custom Decors later.
Before we can delve further into the world of Custom Decors, it's worth having a look at some of the admin created guides regarding them, such as the Custom Decor & Beetle Skin Item Rules, the What Is Tracing, Eyeballing, Referencing and the ART STYLE TUTORIALS, .PSD's and TIPS threads. After you've done that, you can go ahead and get to drawing your Custom Decor! 
Submitting Custom Decors
Once you're settled, and your files are ready for submission, you will want to purchase a Custom Decor Creation item that can be obtained from the Oasis for 10 GB 
.
Once you've bought the item, head over to the Trading Center and click on Custom Decor.

Phew! That's a lot to digest, is it not? Now we can get to actually submitting our decor! How exciting. 
Layering can be chosen from two available options: Above Lion and Below Lion. Above Lion will display your decor on top of lion's lines and colors, meaning it can be used for decors such as accessories, foreground foliage, animals that accompany your lion etc. The Below Lion option is great for things such as animals bigger than your lion, background foliage and similar, as anything that is submitted will appear as it was behind your lion's image. Pretty simple!
If your Custom Decor has been approved, you will receive 3 copies of your newly created Custom Decor!
If it was rejected, you will receive your Custom Decor Creation item back to your Hoard, as well as an explanation for rejection of your decor.

In addition to previewing it on a lion, you can also preview the actual decor image for the different stages.
