If you haven’t notice we switched themes! Partly because it was getting a little old but also since it did not work in Internet Explorer(the devil) 6.0! Oh and if you haven’t already the new kickass Firefox 3.0 is out so go get it!
When I was testing the initial theme, it worked in both Firefox and IE 7.0 perfectly but I totally forgot about IE 6.0! Although its an older version the demographics of users seem pretty high. On our sites it still holds about 10% or so and each and every one of you is important to us :) Here is an IE tab plugin for us awesome Firefox users!
If you want to test further on different browsers/platforms:
Whether I like to admit it or not I’ve made mistakes and I’m guessing you have too. Sometimes the money at the end of the light can sever your good judgment. This article is to help you put it all back into perspective when the greed overcomes your senses. I’m going to try and speak from my experiences and what I’ve learned so far.
From selling online items in Diablo 2, making how to make money cds, selling on Ebay, and making websites money spoke. Even in my younger days just selling items in Diablo 2 I let greed blindsight my good judgement. I decided on purchasing bulk of 100 stone of jordans at the time which was approximately $1000(at 13 years old it was a hefty sum). After the purchase I was scammed with a stolen credit card and never recovered funds(Thanks Paypal!). I knew there were risks in buying and selling online items but in my younger days I didn’t know better.
Lesson learned: Take it one step at a time. It would have probably been safe if I bought and sold low quantities but to try and make the big bucks I took bad risks.
Everything you see sold on Ebay is not necessarily legal. Just because there is a guy selling it doesn’t mean its alright for you to sell it too. I’ve learned that the hard way. Looking for a solution manual for one of my classes I stumbled my way onto Ebay(gasps! Yes I know, I know). I managed to find many solution manuals and it looked very profitable at the time. So I did some research purchased several manuals and began to sell. Business was great, every few hours we logged a few sales and money was rolling in. What happened? Well lets just say there are copywrite laws in selling solutions and publishers aren’t very fond of Ebay sellers. After some scary lawyer phone calls and emails we had a hard lesson learned.
Lession Learned: Just because someone else is doing it doesn’t mean you should too. Quite obvious right? Lets hope it is for you.
