Sure, http://tryhandmade.com

In addition to H1-H6 and body text, I replaced the header and footer (pegged to bottom of the window) which were both images. Next up is various sidebar headers, but the kids want dinner (it's always something with them).

Finally

I just removed a ton of images from my site and replaced them with great looking text. So easy -- I love it!

Hi Tracy,

Thanks for considering advertising on TH!

When you submit your ad, you need to have already created (or paid someone to create) a 125x125 pixel image. This image will appear in the sidebar exactly as you submit it -- I don't add your shop name, for example.

If you pay someone to make you an ad and you want it to flash, you need to ask for an 'animated gif.'

By the way, if you have an Etsy, Artfire or 1000Markets shop, the easiest way to advertise is to choose 'Shop Widget Ad' on the advertise page -- all you have to do is give us your shop number and we do the rest. You don't need to supply an image.

I hope this helps,
Erika

I don't have that message in my community anymore, but if the price referenced in there is now $19 instead of $99 I think someone has already fixed it.

Looks like the screenshot didn't make it -- let's try that again:

Hi Helen,

Yes, your ad is on the site until the 20th. Are you looking in the right spot? I've attached a screenshot to help you locate it.

Remember: you share that spot with other advertisers, so your ad doesn't show every time the page loads. Details: http://tryhandmade.com/promote/purchase.php

Hey, you're right! I noticed over the weekend that Etsy changed the URLs to everyone's shop, but it didn't occur to me that I'd need to change the instructions for setting up a Shop Widget Ad... Sorry about that!

To get the number you now have to go to your Profile page -- it's the number at the end of *that* URL.

Thanks for the reminder -- I'm off to change the instructions now!

I'm sorry to hear that! I'm in the middle of re-doing that part of the header (in addition to not actually working, it's really fugly) -- but until then, here are the links you need:
