…And we’re a go.

Sort of, anyhow. This is the way we’ve always tended to launch websites – extremely quietly at first, so we can knock out any bugs and QA the site before we get too much attention.

We’ll be adding more items to our store in the coming weeks. For now, poke around and let us know what you think. As we’ve said in our previous post, the webstore is currently running on a modified version of WordPress with the Eshop plugin. We’re still uncertain if this is how we’ll be handling our shop purchases in the future – but it was worth a shot for now since the plugin and WordPress are completely free.

We’ve been trying to squash bugs on various different platforms – but just as a warning, this site will NOT perform well if you use Internet Explorer for the Mac. In fact, we’ve found that the “Add to Cart” buttons are completely missing! Well, not to exclude people on outdated browsers – but now might be a good time to Get Firefox.

The above photo is a postcard courtesy of those companies desperate to contact new businesses. I can’t tell you how much spam we’ve gotten in the mail after registering our business. Though I have to admit, the “Your Name Up In Lights” postcard this one company sent was enough to make me take notice. I guess advertising works!
