Default FWIW

The catalog is now working in my website. I couldn't hit OS Commerce
with a big enough hammer to make it work, but Cube Cart has given me
only minimal grief. I still need to replace their logo with mine
(permitted) but other than that ... how's it look?

I have some wood reference pages in the wings while I learn gooder
English. For pleasing you to be.

Seriously ... it can be hard to write appealing prose. Too 'light' and
there isn't enough meat to be worth the effort of reading. Too 'heavy'
and readers' eyes glaze over mid-paragraph. My main index page is 'too
much information' but I haven't had a chance to break it up yet. I am
trying to write well enough to add to the knowledge of experienced folks
(to coax some in-links out of the bushes) while not bogging people down
who have only a passing interest in woods (to coax some dollars out of
wallets).

Is any one else selling their turned wares online via a private web
page? If so ... how's it going?

I think I'll go spam some other newsgroups now.

switch the slash before the word cube in your link and it'll work.

Bill your Bulletin Board has 29 members of which 28 are Drug/Sex/Gambling
Related, this is a problem you will have if you do not Regulate and Maintain
it.

Sheesh .... thanks ... I'm going to look into moderating it. I cleared
those posts out just a week or so ago. If I can't moderate it, it'll
have to come down.

Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks ... that's what I get for jumping between Linux & Windows.
Consider it fixed.

I took a second look. You'll notice that the 29 names are there but
there are no longer any posts from any of them. I don't seem to have the
hang of how to delete their names (and may have just deleted my own!),
but their vulgar little ads were deleted some time back.

AT THE MOMENT (1:18 am EDT Saturday March 24, 2007) I am the only poster
to the BBS. I've posted a 'quickie tip' about making refrigerator
magnets and another recommending (with qualifiers) my e-commerce
software (Cube Cart).

If others want to add woodworking related posts, fine ... that's what
it's there for. If they don't, eventually I'll pull it. If the pornsters
& druggies return in force, I'll pull it anyways.

I have PLENTY to do ... and little time left over for babysitting
repulsive children.

Bill
