Thanks to you all, I have been struck with the most amazing urge to set up a website selling my photographs....

But i'm really nervous about it, firstly i have no faith in my work at all (serious confidence issues), secondly would anyone buy photographs off the internet....but i'm a little bit excited about it too:T. Even if i sold one photo a month it's better than my pictures sitting on the hard drive of my P.C.

Quick opinions needed, Would you buy from internet? Would you prefer framed or mounted? What would you like to see photo's of?

Argh, Look what you've done MG - your turning a SAHM into a little business entrepreneur and i'm petrified and excited all at the same time! Can i really do this....?

There are loads of internet sites already where you can sell your photos without setting up your own website, you could try on one of them and if it goes well then create a website. Try https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/576153 or google sell photos online.

Hand Dear Hand lol. Only 1 works properly, mind you after that order I might be wishing both hand worked.

Oh Claire I feel terrible using that phrase now - what I meant was for your family to help you - which I see from one of your more recent posts is happening with your OH helping . So very sorry for bad choice of words hun

Put your website as your home page, so we can have a look!

Can you do an option of either rolled, mounted, or framed... I think different people might want different things, and the more you can do the better.

I think with luxury items like decorations, quality is the key x

This is so cool... my hubby is getting interested in setting up a business as well! We shall be a matrix of entrepreneurs!

Just had the wind taken out of my sails slightly...the director of finance of the university I work at has just said that I am scary. :eek:

Some of my budget managers have been telling him, and other people, that I terrify them. I am really shocked. I thought I had a good working relationship with all of them, and I am really upset that they think I am so frightening.

I have been told this before in one of my other jobs. I used to wear sharp business suits all the time, and when you have extremely broad shoulders and carry a lot of extra weight, it can look a little like you are facing a rugby forward in a suit... so with this job I have taken pains to soften up my clothes a bit and be floaty and light with my makeup and hair style and all that kind of thing. And yet... I am still scary.

Seriously, I don't know why. In comparison to some other accountants I know, I am positively a pink fluffy bunny.

How the hell do I stop being scary?! :eek::eek:
