  1. FYI For people using Printshop- you legally can't use their graphics and such on any actual products you are going to sell. They are copyright by the software company. Look in the license agreement under help.

    That being said- I do use Printshop occasionally for labels, I just don't use their graphics or anything like that. I use my own logo and graphics and text and such. I do sometimes use their graphics for signs and promotional stuff- that is okay.

  2. Ok, I shouldn't be posting late at night and when I'm tired... I totally spaced. :o

    I meant to say 800x600! About 2 years ago it was still 640x480, but you're right, that is all but obsolete at this point. We build our sites now to 800 max width.

    (Note to self- get more sleep!!! Quit staying up so late on CT!! :D )

  3. Well, I can tell you as a programmer who works on large commercial sites- believe it or not, there are still a lot of people that use 640x480 screen resolution- even with larger monitors and such. We build our sites to fit the 640 max width. Height isn't as big of an issue, as you have to scroll vertcally for most sites anyway. End users (myself included!) get annoyed if they have to scroll horizontally.

    HTH!

  4. Those are so cute!

    So do you just put FO in the polyclay to make them scented? How long does the scent last?

    I had someone ask me eons ago if I could scent this clay that they had that was made of paper, and I had no idea if it would work or not.

    Very cool!!!!!!!!

  5. Creating the colors on the charts requires between 1/8 tsp and 1 tsp colorant per pound of finished product. If you have a set of measuring spoons that includes 1/8 tsp, you can easily make 1 lb of product using just the spoons and in many cases much less.

    I do have tiny measuring spoons.

    But saw that they talk parts- so it seems that could really in essence be drops.

    Maybe I'll just get them and try it out.

  6. These sound very interesting! I love the color charts- that's one of my biggest problems with the liquid colorants I am using now. I stink at figuring out the blends!

    Have you ever tried coloring very small portions of B&B products like lotion- say one or two bottles? Are they too concentrated for that?

  7. I am a windows and web developer, and I use godaddy for my domain names and web hosting. As a developer that designs an entire dynamic site from scratch, I really like godaddy's plain web hosting packages. You get a lot of bang for your (inexpensive) buck. But I would say that their niche is more of a straight domain name/web hosting one, rather than a template-based site builder one.

    I do use mal's for my shopping carts sometimes, if I don't need to take credit card info on the site. (i.e. just using paypal for payments)

    That being said- I haven't tried any of their template building software. I'm not crazy about template building software in general, since I always end up wanting to do things that the template can't do. :angry2:
