My new site

[Greg McCary]

I am in the process of moving my site. I have found a web hosting company where you can store full sized images and also offer them for sale. It's also really fast and has great slide shows.

Hey Greg,

It looks good, but unless I'm missing something the site isn't really designed to sell photos. It lets you order prints, but if I choose Mpix they're at the normal print costs for Mpix. In other words, I can order a 12x18 of one of your prints for $10.79.

Selling the prints is a feature Zenfolio will be adding soon.

I guess I don't understand what money you're getting. I buy the print for $10.79+tax/shipping, which is the money that Mpix gets. So where is the markup for you? I can't find anything in the FAQ referencing actually selling photos. I'm just concerned that your photos are sitting out there now for anybody to order prints without you getting a dime.


Edit: Ah, that makes more sense.

Oh and I don't know if you noticed, but people can also download the original full sized images right now. You may want to block that.

Wow, Looks like that would have been a default setting. Thanks for letting me know.

Let us know when you make your first sale on here. Is it getting a fair number of views?
