New site for the more savvy e-Commerce web site owners

DJ — Wed, 16 Jul 2008 20:55:29 +0000

Ecommerce Magazine | Miva Merchant Consultants | DoublePlus New Media Marketing

While the focus is on Miva Merchant (Susan is a very experienced Miva designer) it offers articles on many aspects of an e-commerce web site. It is geared to those that did/do their own site and have a bit of knowledge on the inner workings of the backend code. And of course, designers who take on all aspects of their client’s e-commerce sites. Some very well written articles, and a nice clean design. Using the Revolution magazine theme. You can see more of this theme, and others like it by heading over to the Revolution Theme site here…

Congrats to Susan on the launch of a very good resource and nicely designed site! Wordpress RULES!

What web designers sometimes (most times) have to deal with

DJ — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 16:35:54 +0000

This came through on the list this morning. Now we are not IT people, but many many times we deal with clients who are very similar to this. Actually they are the easy ones to deal with.

Click here to view the embedded video.

It is the ones that “know a little code” who are the real problems.

Or the ones that are micromanagers, having to tell you where to place each pixel.

Or the ones that tell you one thing, then the next week tell you something exactly the opposite.

this week..
“The color on the banner is a little silver and we would like to use a more
neutral color. Please use the color from the “Call Us” banner and fade that
color going a little darker into a tan neutral color or light champagne”

last week…
“The banner color doesn’t match the silver on our logo, we like our business
card with that platinum look.”

Ahhhh yes, clients. Can’t live with them, can’t make a living without them.
