Shirts and sites and stuff...

[ellenmillion]

Dude, I just paid out almost $700 in SHIPPING for t-shirts. They couldn't do any shipping on this order except 2nd day. Gah. Still, they finagled me down to case rate to make up for that, and I saved $300 on the shirts themselves, so it about evens out to what I expected to pay. Still, ouchy. I will be making shirts for a week or two straight.

Nearly finished with the Printshop site - I have one menu issue (a few pages show the wrong menu!) and the internal base-price purchasing, but I am SO chuffed with myself... I figured out how to add a paypal address to an artist's account, complete with editing by myself and them, and it took database fussing! I also figured out how to add units to all purchases, so that - HAH - my new fabulous shopping cart does its job. Again, a fairly complex task with lots of little bits and parts. I also transfered it all from a subdomain to its brand new URL, horrah! And made artist links open in new windows, and fixed more links and put together all the front-end information pages. It's not as pretty as I want it to be yet, but it's functional and clean looking, so I'm not utterly embarrassed by it.

EMG-Zine stuff to finish up, too - gotta write my little column, and answer some questions, and heckle people into SUBMITTING GHOSTS FOR NOVEMBER. I wanted to have an article finished this month on doing craft bazaars and holiday markets as fantasy artists, too, but... yeah. *dies laughing*

I was a good girl for once. I submitted. You might not like the painting, but I did submit ;) You gave me the idea anyway just with the theme.

Peanut butter and everything, right? :P

Homemade peanut butter, with the criss-crossed forkmarks. Warm from the oven... Mmm...

Okay, I gotta go make lunch!

You just made me really hungry for homemade cookies. Enjoy your lunch :)

*hastily resurrects Ellen* Oh, please don't tease me with an unwritten article on the very subject that has suddenly consumed my life since yesterday! LOL Maybe just some quick tips? *puppy eyes*

I don't know if my e-mail reached you (I have been having terrible problems with e-mails lately) but I will have both my column and art ready tomorrow. I thought I would be able to finish the art early, but because I need to stop to scan steps of my art for the column. It's taking longer than expected. But I definitly have ghost art for you Ellen! =D

I saw an email come through, but Megan's in charge of content extensions now, and Ren's in charge of art. :) Probably it's not a problem, since you emailed. Can't wait to see what you've done!

Amy's writing an article on doing a sort of craft fair thingy for the holidays... I can't remember details right now but it's in the email somewheres. It'll prolly be for the Dec issue tho.
