  • now this is way off topic, but i will post it because i can :p here is my finished post box ~ now along side making 20+ cards and doing my usuall sunday things i have made this for work. Each xmas customers can be drawn into a ballot to win a hamper of food, only last year someone threw away a post box someone else had made... so i was asked to make one this year ~ this is the results. I made it using 1 pieces of black card, 3 pieces of red card, 6 pieces of red paper, 2 red smart price 2m tinsels, 2 pieces of a4 cardboard and 2 baked bean cans :rotfl:

    see i will try my hand at anything :rotfl: the actual box is sat on a plinth although the tinsel is covering it and the lid is actually over hanging the top but again you cant see that really.

    woo hoo ~ hope they like it in work :rolleyes:

    Thansk raph, if you could, i have been looking around the website for mr site and it looks easy enough :rolleyes: famous last words :rotfl:
  • Ok, my bro says...

    Yeah you just pick from the templates available & stuff, it's fairly easy to use. Except you can't really put things exactly where you want them and can be slow at times.

    ...


    Hope it helps.
    Pap, will PM his website addy, rather than stick it on here, just to give you an example.

    thanks raph, just saw his site and it looks good, i must say it looks much better than paying ebay fees, as a ebay shop is £6 per month then 3p to list anything... so it works out expensive, this way to could be much cheaper :rolleyes:

    watching driving lessons on bbc1 ~ so funny :rotfl:
  • The only thing you would have to worry about is advertising the site & getting people coming to it!
