I made a post on this a few days back but I think it got the axe with the database woes. I am going to be offering some e-commerce solutions for those who either already are or have been thinking about marketing their own goods or services online. We have quite a few people who do this sort of thing. I can think of about 10 right off the bat so I know there must be many more. And I know that with the cost of real web hosting (not the freebie stuff) it can be a little daunting to try to set up a site, a store, and a payment processor. Since I have had some experience in this area I thought it might be a good marriage of needs. You may need a good store. And I definately need your money. Lol.

That said I am probably going to terribly undercharge. I am known for it.

So without further adieu I give you... px.armorama.com

Ok....so I only have a logo so far and some text. But isn't it a great logo??

I know all this talk of more competitors online might be making my existing advertisers nervous, but not to worry. As a further benefit to your support here any current advertiser will be automatically included in the Shopping section here on the main site (where these stores will also be shown). So all those who help contribute support (read money) to the ongoing maintenance and growth of the site will be equal players in that section.

If you have any questions or suggestions please let me know. It may be some time before the first store is ready to roll. I am not making this a priority project by any means. Content addition (which dammit I should be doing tonight) is still #1 on my list. #2 is finishing the Campaign module).

Cheers,
Jim

Might be the springboard some people need to finally get some acclaim for model building.
I look forward to seeing this in action.
Nice one Jim.
