Afternoon,
I'd like to outline one thing regarding Custom Items, and their creation.
Understand, first, that creating these is, usually, very boring/grinding work. And while that itself is not time consuming, the spriting associated with it usually is. Consider, that anything that is meant to showcase on the character (like a piece of clothing), requires 5 different sprites, if not more, (4 sides of an on-mob sprite, + 1 object sprite). Plus the custom spawn commands, which, as Casper can testify, I am still struggling with.
Now, allow me to make a few things clear/understood:
Summary: be prepared to wait for your custom items. Specially if you requisition three items of clothing, or something along those lines.
How to assist? Provide sprites for your own items. It's not difficult to understand spriting, so have a toy with it, if you want your item added faster.

Now, allow me to make a few things clear/understood:
- Coding these is relatively low priority, because I would rather focus on something fun (unless the item itself is fun, like Brenna's rock), or actual server related code projects,
- having these is a privilege, not a right.
