What's new?

We have a new button for websites to allow users to add an item to their favorites list. These items will be easily accessible when a user logs in. The user is never directed away from the website except when they need to register first.
Our tool box opens and closes at the bottom of the program.
We have a drag and drop cart that always stays in the lower corner of the canvas. Just drop any thumnail or item into it. To view the cart just click it.
When a user puts an item in the cart the item is requested. If the seller has the item they ok the request and send it back to the users cart. The user checks back to see what items are available and continues to pay for the order. This extra process helps avoid costly refunds. And insures they have all the items they need for a project before ordering.
The most challenging change has been making the program fit most screens. We need feedback from our users to help meet this challenge. Now it stretches to fit wide an standard screens. There are some small bugs with smaller screens that we're still fixing.
In the panel for adding items you can pay to have your smaller images extracted from a large image. After adding all your items it tallys it up and uses the cart to pay. You can add or remove any image from the list.

What's next?

Our next goal is to have a page maker for each item. The page maker will insert values for the item into a template they have chosen or made. This will allow the user to build a website that looks unique. Each time they add an item they can choose to publish a page for the item on their own website. The user pays a monthly fee for hosting. They have a Cpanel for monitoring their website. They get to choose their domain name.

General information:

This is the first craft design software for the web which allows users to add their items to be viewed on the internet! It's been in development since June of 2004. It's the first marketing tool designed for the user to buy from multiple sellers in one order.

It started as a design board to allow beads to be positioned on the screen. However, the software is not limited to jewelry. The Craft Board allows a user to design just about anything, then order the craft supplies for the project. These items are from various users that want to share their design images, or sellers who advertise their beads or items. A person can spend hours looking for ideas and craft supplies, then spend money on projects that don't turn out as expected. Save time an money by visualizing your item before you make it! You may also browse patterns other users have decided to share, or advertise your own designs. Best of all you get the current prices from sellers while connected to the net without having to search the internet by reloading your saved design.

If you have any questions, feedback, or would like to be put on our mailing list you may contact us at yourkeylady@earthlink.net or admin@perlygates.net
