Like Si said, it's not about how many requests you make. Graphics are an art, not an endeavor of popularity or anything. You're not being paid, you're doing this for free, so have fun with it. =D A suggestion is if you feel you aren't getting a lot of requests, do some grabbags. Some people see icons others have made and want a siggy out of that, instead of a requested one. =] It gives you time to hone your abilities and show off what you can do. Plus, people sometimes get really stuck on a style that other makes have, so yours may be foreign to them. Give it time and see if they catch on.

However, opening with other people seems to have worked in the past, especially if you don't have a LOT of time to be making stuff. ^___^
