Free article submitting software that I have yet to check out
Normally I do not pass along links to free stuff unless I have checked it out, tested the item and have a good idea of its value. Some freebies aren't worth the trouble, many are not really freebies but instead are offering free stuff if you make a purchase or a free trial. I at least know that this...

How about another good old fashioned freebie?
Way back when in the days eBay allowed the sale of digital goods, people sold a lot of cybor junk for pennies on their original release price. That's just the way it goes with items that are purchased with resell rights. No matter how good the product is, they all start out at a suggested selling...

It's impressive when you step back and look at it
Since early in the summer I have been working on taking a template I cobbled together for osCommerce and turning it into a viable source of income. At this stage just over two months later, I can say that it is just beginning to pay off.... and boy have I learned a lot. Every progression along the...

I seriously need some critical input
As per usual, I charged into another deal hoping not to make the same mistakes as last time. So far, so good. This time around I am doing a job for a forgiving return client. But at the same time I intend to over deliver. This is a store that wants to capitalize on demographics by selling relatively...

Your online cake store specialist
A couple of weeks ago, I began a project for a cakemaking company. It was simple enough, take the artwork from their website and incorporate it into my osCommerce template to give them a professional looking cake store. In dealing with clients however, things are not always as simple as they could...

What works and what doesn't work
I wish I knew the answer to my blog title. Two years ago I set up a web forum to have a place for my web clients and others to ask questions about their web projects. It took off fairly well, some longtime Blogit members stopped in and registered, a number of others did as well. Unfortunately...

I'm a notorious image theif
Just about every nice image I have ever produced I stole from somewhere, with "stole" being the right word in most cases but not always... the internet is a funny place. Honest people living by the letter of the law simply do not exist on the internet. Technically, any image produced by someone else...

Now I'm making a cake store
Sometimes I have to laugh at myself and some of the things I find myself doing. This weekend I am making a cake store but it was a particularly good weekend for my osCommerce template project in comparison to past weekends. I expect that it will get much busier as enquiries are coming in from...

It's coming along, slowly but surely
I did another template today on spec. I really have no clue as to what looks good and what doesn't. My focus is on proper construction and of that I am certain I have done a good job, especially in the button mouseover effects. HERE... There is a guy that has been drifting around asking me all types...

A new addition to this blog
Being on the old format here on Blogit, there are a number of things that I can do with my blogging interface that those who joined after August 2006 cannot. There is not much point in sharing blog modification tips and tricks with a reading audience that cannot implement anything I may talk about...
