By Ricaso

These tutorials are set out in an easy to understand language … sometimes its a bit difficult to follow any official tutorials … and on the zazzle forum the same questions can be asked time and time again by all users but especially new comers … what I’m hoping is that this site will become a place to redirect those designers / artists to … just view the posts on the right or use the search feature .. if you can’t find the tutorial you need .. just leave a message

There are many helpful people on zazzle .. but theres not always someone on the forum when a question is asked .. so instead of having to wait and put off creating products until the question is answered .. they can now come here…

I will be building on this site with tutorials on the most common questions asked …

If you have a tutorial in mind that should be posted here just leave a comment below .. or on the zazzle forum if you’re a member….

you can also purchase some of my work on zazzle from the following stores

Ricaso Graphics / Ricaso UK / Ricaso Decks / Ricaso Intros

For many other things theres always my site

    This is a really great idea! Especially for people like me who aren’t really computer literate. I always seem to come up with things I want to do, but don’t know how to do them! I am STILL indebted to you for showing me how to do an embedded link! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! Kathy

    I have created two magnets. Can I create all magnets from one image upload and text add. Surely I do not have to do each separately like I have just seen, ex: round, one upload, rectunagular, another upload?

    Is there something I am missing?
    Like uploading all products from one image upload?

    The only exception I can see is the size of product needs.

    Thanks for any help,

    If the image you’re using on a square or round magnet works well on both then a customer can choose what style to have so you’d only need to create one .. however .. if the image doesn’t work on both you would have to create it for two different sizes / styles if thats what you want to offer.

    You can only create one product at a time .. however if each of your products have something like text you want to keep on more then one .. as long as they are the same kind of product .. IE : if you’re creating more then one magnet .. you can make one magnet .. then go to that newly created magnet and hit the customize button ( if you allow customization ) and just change the image or text or whatever on that magnet you won’t then have to create from scratch … this is really useful if you’ve made text templates .. then you don’t have to go through the whole template set up time and time again

    Wow. Came to thank you for leaving a comment on one of my products, and discovered this page…which I have just bookmarked. Like Kathy, above, I am a computer illiterate, despite have had a computer for ten years, now. I haven’t yet perused your tutorials, but if they are presented with the same care and clarity of thought as the rest of your site, I am sure they will prove to be very useful. Thanks for making it (them) available!

    Great idea. I am still looking to see how I can feature other people’s products on my gallery so I can earn commission. One reason is that I am trying to feature products on a Squidoo lens, and the automatic product selection does not work very well.

    Hi Tony … linking other peoples products and stores on your zazzle site won’t make you any referrals .. you need to link from OUTSIDE of zazzle to generate any referrals … maybe a blogger or wordpress site would be useful … or you could try a zblog .. from http://www.freezblogs.com/

    hope that helps

    Hello

    What I would love to see is maybe something on mark up prices and how they work on market forces?

    I am brand new to Zazzle. I really want to do a good job in setting up my store(s) up front, because I don’t want to have to redo it latter. You have some great tips here, though the HTML stuff is totally scary to me. I have a question. I’m confused about whether I should have multiple stores or multiple product lines under one store. I’m not even sure how to do either.

    Here’s my first store. I signed up under my name, and then thought latter that I should title the store different. Now the username and the shop name don’t match. Should they match? Does it matter? I don’t get it.

    I am sharing your blog with other people at eHow.com who are interested in doing Zazzle.

    Hi Diane … Welcome to Zazzle .. don’t worry about the css and html coding.. thats all optional to building a store .. if you’re not happy working with it .. thats fine .. as for the multiple stores .. that is a personal decision .. the categories / product lines .. work well and keep a store in order .. but if you feel you have a very different range of products ( and enough to fill more then one store ) you can easily open more then one .. just sign out of your first store .. then sign up just as you did for your first .. you will find a lot of useful information on the forum http://forum.zazzle.com/ theres a handy search feature at the top to see if your questions have already been answered .. zazzle is full with very helpful store keepers and will help you when ever you get stuck .. and ty for sharing the blog :)

    These kind of tutorials, tips and information are more than not, better than the tips provided on the main site’s page. Alas, those from the users and bloggers are always the best information. Greatly appreciate your Zazzle tips and information. Keep up the great work.
