Freeformfrog.com Grand Opening! It’s finally here!

[[Neo]] — Sun, 01 Mar 2009 06:00:27 +0000

It’s true, it is finally here – the long-awaited opening of the Freeformfrog.com online clothing store! It has been one month since it was announced, and there have been long, late nights spent getting things ready. So here’s the skinny… We’re starting off with 11 designs: 9 for male & female, and 1 gender-specific for each. There will [...]

Terms of Service and other legalese…

[[Neo]] — Mon, 23 Feb 2009 04:41:36 +0000

I’ve updated the TOS and Privacy Policy pages. Since the majority of my products are created through my cafepress.com stores, I’ve adapted both documents to the purposes of the FreeformFrog store. From this point on, there are only minor graphic changes that are necessary to make on the site, and the rest of the time will [...]

Products, Checkout, and Misc. Pages

[[Neo]] — Sun, 22 Feb 2009 03:20:19 +0000

Well, I spent the evening creating some more products – trying to determine whether to release one design of every product type or one product type with every design. Things do get easier to create other product like it, if I already have one of that type – but then there are like 50 of [...]

Shipping Module written, QP updates

[[Neo]] — Mon, 16 Feb 2009 05:09:54 +0000

I have 2 items of Good News! After some dialogue with the suppliers of the products, some concerns about the Quantity Pricing amounts were all cleared up. That means I was able to lower the prices in the store, because I wasn’t being charged as much as I thought for Cost of Goods. The second is related [...]

Mr. Quip – He’ll say it, so you don’t have to.

[[Neo]] — Sun, 15 Feb 2009 00:19:44 +0000

Greetings! The first set of graphics has been picked! The Freeform Frog store will be starting off with a series of t-shirts that have racy, rude, ambiguous, or flirty quips on them, said by an innocent-looking smiley face named Mr. Quip. Why? Because, on a day like today, you can’t really get away with telling your significant other [...]

Quantity Pricing, Product Pages, Size charts

[[Neo]] — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 06:05:33 +0000

I’ve spent pretty much the whole weekend working on getting the product pages laid out, or recoded to display how I need them to. I actually haven’t left the living room, except to go eat Saturday – never made it to the bedroom to sleep either. Zen Cart has a lot of stuff modularized, and that [...]

Back on track

[[Neo]] — Fri, 06 Feb 2009 06:50:31 +0000

We’ve wiped the slate clean and started from scratch on the new store, and have caught back up to where it was earlier this evening. Over the next few weeks the effort will be focused on tweaking the small design customizations, and setting up the product selection. I’ve also added the Google Friend Connect to this blog, [...]

A new start…

[[Neo]] — Fri, 06 Feb 2009 00:04:58 +0000

Well, I originally started setting up the store with OSCommerce software, but realized today that I needed the additional functionality that Zen Cart provides. So I’m starting over with the store installation – which wasn’t hard to customize to the point I had already achieved. I’ve also been doing some planning for the initial product releases, [...]
