Hi all,

I invite you to visit my website. http://www.McDowellPottery.com

I've put a lot of new work up there. I'm trying to make it into a
little more of a vehicle for sales, rather than just show and tell
as it's been pretty much in the past. To that end I have finally
gotten it together to use PayPal shopping cart. I even took the
advice to set up a separate bank account for PayPal transfers. I
just got all the changes posted tonight. I'd sure appreciate any of
you banging around on the site and letting me know of any glitches.
Any suggestions on how it might be improved as a sales vehicle would
be appreciated. Any suggestions on how it might be improved in any
aspect for that matter...

I was at an out of doors sale last week when the wind whipped up. I
had sheets on my shelving that became sails for the moment. It
seemed pretty terrible at the time though probably no more than a
dozen pieces were lost. Anyway, it made me think that it sure would
be nice to do more sales on the web...

Just want to say thank you to all who visited my site, and
especially to those who offered corrections or suggested
improvements. Most of these are already in place. Lois asked that I
share info on how well it works, this e-commerce attempt. Well, I
think its a bit premature after three days for me to say. I'll let
it go through the holiday season. After the New Year I'll report
back, whatever the results.
