    How do I submit my tax form?
    We must have a W9 form (U.S. citizens) or a W8 form (all other citizens) on file for you in order to release payment. Please download the appropriate form from the IRS, and mail it or fax it back to us. Security prohibits us from accepting a form in electronic format, so the form cannot be emailed to us.
    Not sure about this bit ? Looks ok in whole but you need $50 before they will pay you out

    and their forums havent been posted on for 8 months, strange
  • Amber - just plugged your site on twitter

    slightly off topic but though this could be helpful for anyone else on twitter, there's a site I'm using called be a magpie that pays (well that's what they claim, I haven't actually been paid yet) to have twitter posts/tweets/whatever containing adverts and according to the site once you've started earning you can use your earnings to buy your own adverts (without actually having to pay for them w/ real money).

    Morning all! :)
    had a hugely busy day yesterday, weight watchers (eek) then volunteer course (friend had the kids, yay) then swimming for the boy then tea then MIL came round! In between all this I finally managed to get something I was happy with done to finish off my Sulkie orders. So Hales can you please turn green the bit that says get my orders done (not the mini keyring bit yet though), thank you very much, that will be my first green bit so far so good good :)
    M&P, can't believe he managed to do that, I can't even work out how to just have a BIN and not an auction starting price?? if you've only got five feedback so far would it be worth starting a new account maybe, if he does leave you a neg?
    Will get Sulkies on once OH and DS have gone to school and work, have got to get the house ready for a load of the family coming up on Saturday to watch DS in his production (three songs from Joseph, a bit of dancing and acting...he's four lol) but have been thinking about having a blog like the one jo showed us and am going to make a cat and dog Sulkie keyring, at least that is the plan :)
    Good luck Jo! Hugs for any that need 'em, Laura will get back to you later with some links but really all I did was google 'make polymer clay beads' and choose something I liked the look of and thought I could do. If you look on Etsy and Folksy they are great for ideas too :)
    I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick @ss.... and I'm all out of bubblegum.

    Morning

    Paula, very busy day! Don't rush on my account, whenever you are ready!

    I have got my EBay set up so that everything I list is a BIN for the shop and he just typed the starting price into the box without realising he was on the BIN page, he listed 3 items BIn by mistake and 2 were bought in 30 seconds, the first bloke was really nice about it and said don't worry, but the second is insisting that we sell it to him at that price, if he leaves neg, I will try and get EBay to remove it, if not, then I guess I will have to setup anothe one.

    On the plus side, have only listed a few things in the shop so far and I sold my first one last night! Ok, so it was only a pair of knickers, but I sold them! (clean and new btw!)

    Good luck for today Jo, hope you are feeling better xx

    Jobs for today are to clean the kitchen as I never got that far yesterday, nip to the PO and sort out OHs accounts and wages as it is payday today, should be a good one, but he has hit his quota for the month, so won't be doing anything but chartering at the weekends and getting under my feet for the rest of the month :(

    ETA: I also have 2 watchers on a BIN, why would you watch a BIN??????

    EETA: actually I think I know, I have in my listing that if anyone spends £50 in my shop, I will discount them 10% at the checkout and both of the items being watched are the same size, think they might be waiting for more items to be listed!

    Lol Jenna you are completely nuts ! That's brilliant- we can get Toots to crotchet merkins :-) good luck with all the goals , the twilight page sounds like a good idea, vampires seem to be huge at the mo.

    Morning Paula :-) dog sulkies that's genius! 'Call that a walk?' ' Lets chop your balls off and see how happy you are' ...:-)

    haha mabel, loving the idea "' Lets chop your balls off and see how happy you are'" have seen that look on my cats face! Also the double take at the food bowl as if to say "you have steak and I have f**king biscuits, where is the fairness in that?"

    Googled merkin and it came up with a site called "shave the day" apparently there is one day a year where merkin lovers get together and celebrate baldness, amybe you lot should get a pitch!

    Morning Mummyandp, I think most watchers on BIN are prob people selling the same thing that want to see if it sells! I've got an item listed that had 3 watchers- didn't sell, relisted it and it's got 3 watchers again! They should have two different watch buttons 'i'm watching this coz I might buy it' and 'i'm watching this coz I'm nosy' would be easier!

    Morning dribblers huggles to all

    Yummy mummy –Love the jewellery : )

    Babymoo – your story is so moving, really amazed by your resilience and feel super proud to know you x

    Mambury - Liking the logo! Also don’t put in to many key words, it is known as keyword stuffing and google does not like it. Good on your for getting the site up and running too.

    Hales – I am so sorry to hear about your mum’s job. Hugs for both of you

    Nikki – a very well done on passing your exams!!!!

    Crafty toots – Thanks so much for the kind words about my blog, it is a labour of love and I really love working on it.

    Jo – with my speed reading I almost missed that you have your interview goes well. I am sure that you will do great so I will have my fingers crossed for you. Xxx

    Evenstar – that’s crappy, hugs for you my dear xxx Living well is the best revenge of all especially when you make your 10K. Then make the laxative cakes mwahahahahahaha

    Amber – I will PM you some ideas that I had.

    MummyandPaige – shave of the day excellent!!!

    Other than that, didn’t do too much other than some bloggy bits and got the mood boards off to a potential client. Meant to arrange a meeting in person so I am going to work on that asap!
    Also had a few ideas for the blog – not sure if this will work for all but I decided to break my blog down into headers and come up with different focuses so there will be particular features on each day. Going to have a free design to download each month and I am trying to work on getting some great headings together. I have realised that offering a tutorial or something different encourages people to come back. Think about something special that you can offer in your blog and try and make a regular feature out of it. This is a good way to build blog loyalty.

    Anyways, wishing everybody a money making day with a good bit of dribble.
