Are you in a creative rut? Break out of it!

Every one with a creative bent finds themselves feeling blank sometimes. Your hands are poised above the keyboard as you stare at a empty white screen, you hold a pencil or paintbrush in your hand and glare at a fresh new canvas, you look at your sewing machine and a shelf full of fabric, you […]

An enthusiastic Zazzle customer tells her story

The Zazzle forums are circulating this lively customer review by Kiwiberrylicious (Mariah) of her search for on-line make your own card resources. She describes in detail how she ended up at Zazzle and what she wanted to be able to do. I was really touched by how persistent and earnest she was about being able to make just the right thing for her mom. Her enthusiasm is really contagious!
My favorite line: I don’t need 10 cards! I’ve got one Mom!

How to add images to posts on the Zazzle forums

Have you tried posting a linked image in the Zazzle forums in the past few days? You probably noticed that the three options changed to two. There’s no more link to images!

So I made a little video. Sorry, I think I was losing my voice here, but you’ll see that it’s still easy, just different.

So, if you want to learn (or re-learn) how to add images to posts on the Zazzle forums, take 5 minutes and watch!

Your Zazzle order was cancelled – now what?

My New Liberty Water Bottle Arrived!

Review of Liberty Water Bottle designed and purchased through Zazzle.com I’ve never liked drinking out of plastic cups or bottles, so I knew I’d be ordering a custom water bottle soon after they were introduced on Zazzle.com. At some point, you have to let go of those plastic freebie water bottles, right? And buying disposable […]

Taking chances buying Domain Names

Getting a domain name seems easy at first. You come up with a good idea or two, head to a domain registrar and sign over some money. Except when someone beat you to it. And you can’t think of any more names! You can spend hours, or days, or weeks generating name ideas before you […]

Drop Caps – Are They Worth the Trouble?

I love drop caps. Especially drop caps in color or illuminated or illustrated! But they sure can be tricky on the web! The particular WordPress theme RightBrainLeftTurn.com is on offers a shortcode for drop caps and I’ve been trying it out. Alas! While the drop code looks decent on the blog pages, it doesn’t translate […]
