Amybug's Attic

06/05/2017

After 13 amazing years, it's time for Amybug's Attic to close it's doors. I want to thank each and every one of my wonderful customers for making my graphic design dream come true! I'm taking the next step and expanding my work to Amazon.com. It's a very exciting time for my family and I!

Thank you again for your support!

Edited to take out the part about Photobucket! :)

It looks like Photobucket has changed their interface a little bit and it's causing some confusion for some of my customers. I'll be updating the directions on my website this evening, but until then, here is the work around!

In your Library, you can see thumbnails of all your images. If you put your mouse over your image's upper left corner, you'll see some options pop up. You want to click on "Share". Then a pop up box will come up and you'll see "Photo Links" on the right. You want to click in the "HTML" box, that will automatically copy the code to your clipboard. Then you can paste it into your template with no problems.

I hope this helps! Have a great Sunday!

Greetings and salutations! I hope everyone is doing wonderfully and looking forward to sunnier days and warmer weather!

I've had a couple customers email me about eBay's new "Mobile Friendly" test and I want to assure everyone that your auction templates will display beautifully on Mobile devices like smartphones and tablets. Your customers will have to scroll/swipe to see all of the graphics, but as someone who uses their smartphone for almost everything, that is very common and isn't a hassle whatsoever.

If you would like to update your template so that no scrolling is needed on mobile devices, it's easy! Just add this code to the very beginning of your template (before any other code):

img{max-width:100%}

This won't change how your template displays on desktop/laptop computers, but will resize your graphics on mobile devices so that no scrolling/swiping is needed. I do need to add a disclaimer though - if you choose this option, your listings won't look as neat and proportional as they do now.

I am more than happy to update your templates for you if you'd like this option, just send me an email at [email protected] with your business name and I'll get your auction templates updated for you at no extra charge.

Have a great day everyone!

I thought you all would get a kick out of this, this is my sweet baby girl who hasn't been sleeping well lately. I was so, so tired this morning and she just started laughing at her breakfast. I'm talking full-on, baby belly laughs. So of course I had to make a meme :)

Did/do you have children who were/are good sleepers?
