Monster Gallery Grand Opening!

My T-Shirt Monster Gallery

Although my gallery at T-Shirt Monster has been open for several weeks now and I have posted about it here before, I consider this the grand opening, with all the hoopla and fanfare associated with such an event. That is because T-Shirt Monster just unveiled their affiliate program and provided its members with all sorts of goodies as far as banners and links are concerned.

One of the great features the Monster unveiled is this nifty new flash panel, which doesn't only showcase a few of my designs but every single one in my gallery.

My Monster Gallery Designs


If you want to showoff only a single design, T-Shirt Monster has that base covered too. Recently, I entered one of the site's monthly-themed contests for the first time. The theme for this one was Summer Lovin'. The winner received $500 in cash and prizes ($250 cash and a $250 gift certificate for T-Shirt Monster).

Although I didn't win, it was a lot of fun and I did get a great new design out of it, which I can continue to display and sell in my gallery.

Maybe you have an idea of your own that you would like to put on a t-shirt but you lack some of the finer skills in t-shirt design. Once again, T-shirt Monster can help you out with what they call their Design Lab. Here you can create your own custom shirt by using the lab tools which include a multi-font text creator and a large selection of clip art from which to choose.

If you visit my gallery, you will notice that underneath the banner to the upper right, there are several social bookmarking links which you can use provide you are a member of one of those sites. So if you see something that you or someone you know might like, spread the word, it would be very much appreciated. There are also permanent links to my galleries just underneath the banner of this blog and in the sidebar to the right. Look for those and other great links. Thanks and have a nice day.

Examples

This is how my associate link appears for Caza Creations without the HTML link code.

"http://www.zazzle.com/azac69?rf=238631487929710515">azac69's Gallery at Zazzle<

When I include the HTML, it appears as this: azac69's Gallery at Zazzle
Note that it uses my contributor name instead of my gallery name. This is easily changeable to Caza Creations if you decide to do so.

Upon joining The Zazzle Associate program, you will receive your own reference number. That is the number you see above, highlighted in yellow. Your number would be automatically inserted into the code in place of mine. It is this number that allows Zazzle to know who should get credit for the referred sale. Once you have this number, you can click on Promote This Gallery and copy the code you'll need to paste in your site. It is important to note that you are not restricted to promoting only my products. With your associate membership number, you are free to promote any contributor's products or Gallery you wish.

The Zazzle Flash Panel is a handy tool that can be placed in your blog and is very versatile. You can customize it by choosing certain search terms (ex; "election race" or by selecting a specific Zazzle contributor (you'll need to know their account name) or you can even specify which product you want to feature, be it t-shirts, shoes, hats, mugs, keychains, etc. You can narrow it down even further by choosing recent or popular designs.


This is the flash panel for Caza Creations. If you would like to install this panel on your site, click on Promote This Gallery, copy code and paste into your site's HTML.

The versatility doesn't end there. You have your choices of skins to use depending on your tastes or colour scheme of your site. Not only that but you can blow it up or shrink it down to size to fit wherever you want. The Skin choices are Classic, Space, Paint, Metal, Summer Breeze and Graphite.

I used the search term "election race" for this flash panel and chose the "Paint" skin. I also selected "popular" instead of "recent" for the featured products. I then copied the code and pasted it here. Next, I edited the HTML and shrunk down the size of the panel by altering the width and height. Always change both by the same amount. The default size of Zazzle's Flash Panel is 450=W by 300=H. For this one I changed it to 250 by 100.

If you want to customize the code for your flash panel to change the size, look at the 4th line down in the code, it will appear like this:

width="450" height="300"

Simply change the 450 and 300 to bigger or smaller numbers. You may need to experiment to get the desired size.

S.T. Lewis

Here is a gallery of work I found on Zazzle by an American storyboard artist by the name of S.T. Lewis. He has a very pleasing drawing style reminiscent of classic Disney cartoons. If you would like to learn more about him or his work, check out his blog at http://stlewis.blogspot.com/
