paypal, payloadz, gimme a break!

Wednesday, July 11th, 2007

One day when I’m not working full time, I’ll get a real shopping cart. In the mean time, I’m using Paypal in conjunction with Payloadz. Between the two of them, they’ve managed to lose a couple of orders in the past couple of months.

If you’ve ordered a pattern and it doesn’t come right away, please email me, using the email address given to you in the Paypal receipt.

We can figure this out without involving the Paypal Police!

Tech Editor: Job Ad.

Friday, January 26th, 2007

I need a tech editor for patterns published on the site. The TestLab is awesome, and I appreciate them a TON…but there are some things we need a regular math genius to solve.

Any interested parties should email me describing experience.

(Thanks!)

An Important Message from the Site Developer.

Wednesday, January 17th, 2007

As you may have noticed, Glampyre.com has been down for longer than expected. There were three factors playing into this mess: time, money and life events. Time, or the lack of it, I should say. Money, which forced us to move sooner than expected to another host that cost less yet offered more bang for our buck. Life events meaning, me, the web designer, moving more than halfway across the country, living out of boxes in a spare bedroom and grabbing internet access like a crack addict grabs an errant rock on the dirty sidewalk, all while turning around and making a drastic career change. Then, upon finding a place to live, moving again, [insert tedious moving details here] and all the fun crap that comes with it, including but not limited to life’s important questions like ” wtf’s my ROUTER?!”

So, in answer to your questions:

  1. No, you have not been blacklisted from Glampyre.com. I apologize sincerely if you took the fugly login prompt as a slap in the face from the internet. It has now been removed.
  2. Yes, the layout is beta. I am currently, probably as you fire off that email right there, in the midst of fixing it.
  3. Comments are currently open, but you must register first. This is to prevent comment spam, of course.
  4. The previous entries cannot be viewed at the moment. They exist, they are backed up, but damn if WP will let me batch import them from said backup. If this has happened to you and you have a workaround, please email me?

Thanks.
