Floraworks Opening

old_blaggard · September 26, 2008, 05:52:18 PM

I want to let you all know that Floraworks will be opening tonight around midnight CST. Floraworks is a 3D vegetation company put together by myself and lightning, whom you know for his great plants. We're running an opening sale through Sunday, so until then all of our products will be 10% off their normal prices.

You can check it out at www.floraworks3d.com.

Congratulations and good luck guys. Looks good so far

Can I make a couple of suggestions?

1. There are no pics on the main store page. Might be a good idea to treat this page as a 'shop window' showing potential customers what they might be able to get to keep them interested? (Lets you show off as well!)

2. Provide direct links from one plant category to the others when browsing so that the user does not have to keep going back to the main store page

just my 2 pence worth

all the best

Thanks for the comments, peejay. We'll definitely take them under advisement.

Ok

now there's a problem. I just tried to order but the only payment option you have is paypal. Gotta tell you I "HATE" paypal. For me it is an absolute deal breaker, I will not use it.

Are you likely to have other payment options at some point in the future?

old_blaggard · September 28, 2008, 07:15:28 PM

We might be able to offer something else in the future, but right now it's our only option. However, we have it set up so that you don't even need a Paypal account to pay and can just pay via credit card, with Paypal acting as our payment processor.

I'm all in favour of paypal.

On a different note, please include the polycount for each tree. This is absolutely vital information for most artists.

rcallicotte · September 30, 2008, 10:29:36 PM

I've ordered two from the site already and working on the third. LOL Lookin' good!!

Keep it up, you two. Some things just take time.

bertrand - thanks for the tip. I'll get on that as soon as possible.

Glad you like them, Calico

What's so bad about paypal?

I have a credit card and most of the time I use that but I do also have a paypal account I use now and again, it seems ok to me. In fact a see a lot of uproar when companies allow credit card payment but not paypal because almost anyone can open a paypal account but not everyone has access to a credit card.

I have since updated the product info with the poly count information (vertices and faces).

I think you should also put the Latin name of each plant.
This is because if you are looking at non english customers it would be quite difficult for them to find the right species.
keep up the good work!

Today we added nine new objects to our store and lowered the prices on the trees.

By the way, I realize that some people may not want me to be advertising too much in the forums. If anyone ever thinks it's gone too far, please let me know and I'll stop.

Thanks for the heads up, I'll be sure to have a look.
