i had some problems initially then changed over to internet explorer from my firefox and the twitter went on fine... facebook however is being very fussy. i cannot load them one after another, it stalls out. it will load one and then i have to wait a bit. is there an issue that you know of with their uploads?

It didn't show a picture of the card so I just deleted the post as a post without photos is boring I do love the way Zazzle has the "link" set up. Maybe GCU can copy that model? That way you get the link and the image.

Thank you so much!

For Facebook, I choose a card, then wanted to share it. I changed my mind, clicked on another card, and then did the share, but the first card thumbnail showed up. There were little arrows allowing me to move through my cards, and I was able to point to the one I wanted, but the title stayed with the first card.

For Twitter, though, I didn't have the choice to switch to a different card. So, no worries, I'll just make sure to select the card I want and then hit share from there. It's better if I don't change my mind after selecting the card to share.

This is a WONDERFUL feature and I am very grateful. I expect overall sales volumes to increase. Thank you. Grin

I have shared my new flower girl card on Blogger, and only a link to the card showed up, however I went in and posted the image, but would rather have it come up with the image all in one go....less work!
I guess now I'll have to sign up with FaceBook....sigh,....does anyone have any sales through this method?

i have been using this feature all week to submit to facebook and twitter. a couple of times to my blogger account. but, i am afraid my twitter is history..... i suddenly began following 60 new people today.... without any input or approval from me. everything from stocks, to adult sites. so soooo long twitter. i anxiously await the couple of days to be over that my profile still be online there. i don't think i was benefiting from it anyway.

i probably should have. i could have suspended my acct. and done that but i don't think i will regret it. i spend more time trying to update sites these days than i do making cards. there has to be a balance in promotion or else i will be promoting a dead shop.

school starts back on thursday here. maybe i will reconsider then but for now i think i will just leave it be.
