One or two that use the forum have made sales- but I'll let them speak for themselves. Personally- I like the way it looks and I think its heading in the right direction. Would this be your only site? I think it offers good value for money- I just hope I get the 'investment' back.

Jo

This will be my main website where I direct people to go, but I am on a couple of other sites for groups. When I get set up permanantly I will create links from them. Actually, I am new to this computing game, how do you put a link on a site or messageboard to another site? It seems to be something everyone else knows how to do except me! Any help welcome.

Hi again

If you use the blue 'profile' button up at the top, you'll be able to add the links on the admin page that comes up.

Hope this helps

Hello Dennis

I think most of us have only recently joined ,as Jo said is value for money and gives a really a quality looking website that is a portfolio too.
I have had one sale and a commission so far which is pretty good.I think in time it willbecome a contender if we all make use of our tags when uploading work,I must admit I am a bit lazy with the tags and could do better,but already am seeing high on the google search.

Hi I am new too - just joined in the wee hours of the 21st. From what I have seen over the last couple of weeks, this is a really attractive site. It's great to see so much enthusiasm and talent all in one place! :) It's just great to think that your work has a wider audience than ever before. Love your stuff.

I love that we can all talk to each other. Thanks for the hello Wendy. Looking over the site I can tell you are very positive about it. Well done on your No1 google slot :D Hoping to be able to put some prices on some bits and peices but to be honest I really don't like letting some of them go :oops: Be interesting tho to see if any do sell - it's such a buzz

Just had a thought! How good would it be to actually meet up. How about Lee Delamere services on the M4 (How is THAT for an inspirational location!!??) If anyone can make it ? Any other ideas about a location to suit all? I would love to meet you all in person - anyone who has taken part in this conversation and anyone else who wants to join in. An idea? Let me know what you think. I would love to talk to you all - we all have the same interests. It would be good to chat for real. Caroline

http://www.digitalprintdesign.co.uk on the web. They are really helpful - don't know what the quality is like as not had the proofs back yet- will let you know. Tel no for them 01255 860800. A meet in London at a gallery sounds great.
