i want to move a small store from etsy to its own site. i don't want to have to build the thing from the ground up, i want some sort of CMS so updating is easy, and an integrated shopping system.
what should i start looking at?
- Shopify?Nairn
- (I admin a shopify site - it's got its quirks, but is quite modifiable, if you can be bothered).Nairn
- yeah i wanna just re-skin something with my identity. no sense in reinventing the wheel in this case. thanks!scarabin
- i like that this has a point-of-sale system attached!scarabin
- shopify yep. I run 4 websites on there and as Nairn says anything is possible if you dig deep but for a basic store it is great.fadein11
- Shopify is cool, I run 1 for me and 3 for clients, the problem is plugins are priced per/mo so it can add up compared to WPGuyFawkes
- WP (woocommerce) is a lot more maintenance though, I run a few of those and am in the process of building moreGuyFawkes
- scalp your etsy page to your own pageshapesalad
- WP way better when it comes to SEOGuyFawkes
- WP with Shopify or Woo plugins.utopian
- WP with Shopify? wut?fadein11
- It's a small site, there are obviously way better options to Shopify but I think he just wants a simple option which is Shopify.fadein11
- if you are going WP route use Woo. why pay for shopify on top of Wordpress.fadein11
- I’ll look into it. Thanks!scarabin
- What kind of product numbers are we talking? If its a lowish number on wordpress and you only need paypal payment then WP Simple Paypal Shopping cart is easy.webazoot

A white neighborhood cat has started eating the food i leave out for wildlife in my garden. I see him on my cameras at night, and he’s gone by the time i can get out there to scare him away. Sucker’s fast.
Here he is in a standoff with a skunk, who has the higher ground:
I can’t have this, so i took an electric super soaker and added a port to the back for a remote switch i made for a smoke bomb experiment. I’m gonna set it up on a c-stand, aimed at the food, so when i see him on camera i can give him a little corrective soaking :)

yesterday I got a Bidet and installed it.
This morning I found something that will wake you up more than coffee & that's freezing cold water getting shot up your asshole.

Didn't save facebook password for shitty facebook account I have to keep tabs on one work-related group and, stupidly, a group for a middle school I went to.
I don't have my real name there - rather, a phonetic equivalent.
After a password reminder I now have to upload some ID to verify the account. d'oh.
I've now successfuly lost two instagram accounts and a facebook account, as well as having deleted the original genuine Facebook account I had before I realised what a terrible mistak that was, years ago.
- *"didn't save password on machine I formatted and upgraded recently, the only one I've ever logged in on".Nairn
- I feel like you posted this before.monospaced
- I feel that about most of my posts.Nairn
- From a distance it sounds like an upgrade on life not having to deal with these anymore.SimonFFM
- The pseudo account I had there was simply to track a useful work-related group. I just made the mistake of adding an old school. I don't use FB at all otherwiseNairn

My last nude shoot was in August 2020. But the past two days I sold all the photo prints I had in my archive. I was cleaning up and unsure if I would sell any of the prints.
I sold super cheap as I am not a good salesman, but still I am happy.
Now I am working on a new limited edition for next month and the project just feels so good no matter if it works or not. I am 100% behind it and this is all that matters to me.
Happy Easter QBN!

- Nice! Do you ever watch Crafsman on YT? Would really like to try this.PhanLo
- Cool, actually scarabin, I'd love for you to make one of these for my LPcanoe
- Can you mix resin types when pouring? Perhaps spinning a first pour to fill the sides before filling the interior with a different epoxy mix?Nairn
- I've always wanted to make a forming/nucleation jig to make large crystal formations which I then somehow magically cover in varnish.Nairn

Are American Apparel shirts good anymore? I know they went bankrupt and got bought out by Gildan (which makes garbage) or something. But, are the clothes still good?
I have t-shirts that are 10+ years old and only starting to wear out now. And, they fit perfect. I've bought some shirts from Next Level Apparel, but they've worn out much quicker, and the fit/material isn't quite on par.
If not, any suggestions? I'm all about that tri-blend, btw.

After coming back from the lockdowns people want more home-office days. We already had a day-off on Fridays what was possible by optimizing productive work hours from 5-6 to 7h min.
Last year everything slowed down and the productive hours dropped back to 5-6, which was fine because clients also moved more slowly.I don't know how to motivate people better while they're sitting at home, cooking, doing laudatory while "working". The worst thing that I realized today is that people coming back to the office are more tired than before the pandemic.
- We are all very tired this days... I'm getting serious problems motivating clients and collaborators too. Not easy to achieve a "dynamic" work environment now..OBBTKN
- Best way to motivate people, tell them that if they finish their work early, they can sign off. So if they have a 3 day project and get it done in 1...shapesalad
- .. they can clock off until post the original deadline. You'd see me clicking the mouse button faster than 200mph... boom, done in an hour, cu later.shapesalad
- keeping people in the treadmill of work, just grinds down their motivation until they are barely productive.shapesalad

A future QBN revision idea is a thread rating system. Sure it would be abused but I'd like to rate the 'useful thread' as 5 stars right now...
- perhaps admins could only rate the threads and then you could sort threads by rating...ok that's a lot...StoicLevels
- good idea, i'd go for registered users voting on threads.renderedred

Off to a couple of old mates' housewarming next weekend. A gay couple, I point out only because they're insisting everyone must wear a tiara.
My cynical, straight self wants to point out this isn't very inclusive if you don't like Judy Garland, but what should I do?
Currently thinking fuck it I'll go as Wonder Woman.

Good:
Have a contract on my desk for the job I wanted and going to sign it after a few afternoon beer(s).
Bad:
Ontario going into "stay at home" during "shutdown" order allegedly today/tomorrow, BUT have to go with my wife and 2 sons South to Chatham to look at homes where the year over year prices have gone up about 40%, BUT still $250,000 cheaper than where we currently life (Collingwood/Creemore area).
High highs AND low lows indeed!

Bad: my giant broccoli plants, with leaves bigger than your head, produced only a golf-ball-sized cluster of flower each. they were planted before i enriched the soil earlier in the year so i guess it makes sense.
Good: i sauteed and ate some of those leaves out of spite and they're DELICIOUS. i don't get why they just throw out this part of the plant...
- Like with all the veggies, leaves are fantastic with a bit of preparation...OBBTKN
- My theiving youngest daughter always eats broccoli leaves when we go to the supermarketsausages
