Notes from Paint Chip!

By PChip | Category: General Info |

Oh the fun associated with launching a new blog — it’s great isn’t it?! I write for several blogs and have designed a few websites that include your average front page, community forums, photo galleries, and blog platforms. Recently I even dabbled in the wiki world. This is the first time I’ve launched a Wordpress- designed blog on a server using my own domain. Our service provider offers many handy tools for managing the site. However we do have some special needs that go beyond the support services offered, so it will take us a little longer to get things set up the way we want. How much time I don’t honestly know, but I’m certain we’ll get’er done (as they say in the south).

I’m one of those scrappers who works better under a time crunch and maybe that will help me here as much as it does in my art studio. The current milestone we are striving for is to have the blog template (graphics and all) set up during the next two weeks with much of the work happening over the weekends. We are preparing some great articles for our viewers to tap into as well. We’ve marked the calendar for our official launch date the last week of July. Between now and then we’re still tweaking the business plan, mapping out the marketing strategies, and building our list of “must have’s” for DSD-Pro. Want to see what’s on the list so far?

Gone are the days of keeping those digi-scrap business tools tucked away for only a select few! We’ll be airing them all right here in the open for every digi-scrap designer who ever wanted to turn hobby into business. Hang on tight for this ride folks. It may be a challenging ride for a while. But then again - you know as well as I do that creative challenges are what many of us thrive on! So here we go…
