I just came across a shop feature I had put in waaaay back in the beginning of teesed.com, the ability to have your shop branded with a 500 x 200 gif or jpg banner.

Since Kristin already links to her site in her sig, I don't think she'll mind me showing what this feature looks like with her shop on Teesed.com - http://www.teesed.com/store/artoffoxvox

Notice that it shows on every one of your pages, storefront, section and product.

All I need (please follow these explicitly)

Format:
.jpg or non-animated .gif format. I will always have a white background, so keep that in mind while designing.

Size:
Max of 500w x 200h pixels.

Name:
MUST be named with your shop id only. If your shop is "my_cool_shop" then your image would be either "my_cool_shop.gif" or "my_cool_shop.jpg"

How to get it to me:
You can post here or pm me with a link to the banner if it's hosted somewhere, or attach it in an email to info@teesed.com . Either way, I'll save it to my domain locally so if you ever want to change it, send a new one.

Multiple shops? Yup, I'll need multiple images.

And I've learned that if it goes without saying, I should say it - no store urls or domains on the image.

Feel free to ask any questions here, thank you.

Forgive me, I'm dense. How do we know whether you have any of our stuff in your shop to be branded?

If you're in the marketplace, you're in Teesed.

In fact, if you put your shop id in place of the one above, you'll see your shop. If you have replaced the front page sections with your own front page html, you may be in for a surprise. Since many front page html replacements involve linking elsewhere or hard coded links, I use the affiliate-friendly version of the shop. So, some of you might consider doing some basic thumbnail selections for your top-level sections.

i'm totally lost

are you basically doing what CPshop does by pulling in products from other sites?

I'm a marketplace. When someone finds your product or store, I'd like to give you some branding. If you want it, send me the image.

i still don't get it. 1) how are you a marketplace? how are you pulling all those products in? 2) what kind of image do you need?

Hey Teesed,
It's a neat thing you did there. I sent you my 2 banners, but the email said it was rejected as spam. I can put them on photobucket and give you the links I guess.

Here you go.

Thanks!

Amazing shop feature! I just sent you my logo per e-mail. Thanks for offering us this opportunity Teesed!!!

Thanks Teesed, I sent you mine also via email.

thanks

What a cool offer, thank you so much!

You can grab my banner here

This is very nice of you
I have to get a banner made and I will send it via email.

One more thing- do we put our store Name (One Stop T-Shirt Shop) on the banner or the store id (stolenmomentsph). I am confused about that.
Or do you mean the file name of the banner has to be the store id?

Teesed - Inbound email with mine... Thx. - Kent
