I use nothing but my Wacom! Did you mean using it with Photoshop + Illustrator? since InDesign is a page layout program. What size are you looking at? Good Luck, I think you will love it.

Thanks for the info Kseniya!

Hi Jill! There will be a van and various volunteer cars going back and forth from the hotel to Bookworks. Hope to see you there! 

There is, and we’ll be posting it asap–definitely before early bird registration is past.

Is there a complete schedule of when each speaker and demo will be taking place.Trying to make plans, but may not be able to make it for the whole conference.

Hi Ren! Unfortunately we can’t prorate the conference registration. We hope you can come, even just for a little while!  

I  would like more comments on this color test.The link still works as of JUNE 30. 2011You don’t need to post your results. But, please, try this 

I’m in a similar process: I started renting a storage facility to have a “resting place” for my new press and paper cutter until I find a more permanent home for them.  Lo and behold, turns out the same facility has front office air conditioned office space attached to a storage area with a bay door.  The unit has a front office, a rear r…[Read more]

I would love to! Thanks Angela!

An alternative to classes might be to find someone versed in Quickbooks to do the set up for you and then show you how to use it – I have an out of work friend I was thinking of paying to do this for me.

I was just thinking about that too.  Maybe for etsy, it’s best to let customers buy samples through the site, but then convo you for custom orders and proceed off of etsy? Or you could incorporate all of the points that are made in your contract into your etsy shop policies, and make sure the client reads that first? 

I use Quickbooks! In the past I used Peachtree..

I would love to see your photo of the homemade pin set up.

I do have a contract but I find its hard to use when clients buy on ETSY. Does anyone have any advice on how to make that all work seamless?

Well, congratulations! That said, I presume that your business has risen to the level where it is making enough money to pay the monthly rent of having a commercial space, or that you intend to invest enough effort to create inventory to run a retail operation. I can certainly see the advantages of having the shop at a different location from t…[Read more]
