While they are a little busy, your picture are very consistent. You can recognize that they come from your shop, which is a really good thing. Branding is important.Contrariwisehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09397443426432139398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6390210108190723835.post-70847805281835148492008-11-19T12:54:00.000-05:002008-11-19T12:54:00.000-05:00Good tips. I've been working on trying to figure out what backgrounds make my work look best. It's a work in progress, lol. I know that most of my photos I have right now are way too busy in the background, and I am trying to rectify that, too.JMW Jewelryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07024652829556200252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6390210108190723835.post-24449040694710214032008-11-19T12:05:00.000-05:002008-11-19T12:05:00.000-05:00Great tips, I've been working on improving my photos too, and I've been gradually replacing bad photos with better ones.

I think I probably need to do some reshooting.

My photo skills have gone up a notch or two since I opened my shop and several items just don;t seem to have zing anymore. Time to break out the camera and do some new photos.<BR/><BR/>Also time to move the computer closer to the fire!Virginia Burnetthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10811690314497763047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6390210108190723835.post-46186933584955267392008-11-19T08:44:00.000-05:002008-11-19T08:44:00.000-05:00Pegasus,<BR/>Good photos are probably the #1 thing that you can do to improve your shop and enhance sales.

I really suck at taking photos but I am slowly getting there. To be honest I like both backgrounds for the sterling silver earrings you have there and I love those kisses earrings too. All of the photos are great to me. :-)Pegasus Handmade Soapshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03924609740723072083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6390210108190723835.post-23158315896438351092008-11-19T07:49:00.000-05:002008-11-19T07:49:00.000-05:00great ideas. thank you for sharing.ChichiBouliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09870165886859493342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6390210108190723835.post-51971402695331069932008-11-19T07:40:00.000-05:002008-11-19T07:40:00.000-05:00You are so right...<BR/><BR/>*note to self: update*High Desert Divahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06612606483622054573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6390210108190723835.post-57237023899728739512008-11-19T03:42:00.000-05:002008-11-19T03:42:00.000-05:00Hey there!<BR/><BR/>I&#39;m kinda dropping by randomly (&amp; kinda dropping by to hit you with my EC) to tell you about this new selling site I found. It&#39;s called ArtFire.com &amp; you should check it out.<BR/><BR/>It&#39;s still really, really new (still in beta) but it&#39;s heading in a really good direction! They are already buying advertising online &amp; in print magazines to bring in traffic to the site. (It&#39;s already got almost as much traffic as indiepublic.com) <BR/><BR/>It&#39;s got stats for shop views so you know where your customers are coming from! I know! Gasp! Faint! Right? hehe<BR/><BR/>&amp; it&#39;s just $7 a month (for the first 5000 artists) to list &amp; sell as much as you can FOREVER. $7 a month no matter what! I signed up on that alone! haha<BR/><BR/>Anyhoo, it is new so there aren&#39;t zillions of people using it (which is good &amp; bad) but I thought you might want to take a look at it. With the ad campaign they are working on kicking in soon (or so they are saying), I think it&#39;s going to be a good place to start listing!<BR/><BR/>If you sign up, give me a yell &amp; let me know what you think!<BR/><BR/>Always,<BR/>Amy<BR/><BR/>P.S. Great tips for sprucing up listings! Words to live by!Always Amyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13064488054976777355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6390210108190723835.post-71674973103249136742008-11-19T01:08:00.000-05:002008-11-19T01:08:00.000-05:00Wow!
