• A man offers you $10,000 USD if you deliver fake cocaine to the cartel and promises lifetime protection if you succeed. Do you take this offer?

  Yep. I would get a bag of flour, put a sticky note on it that says “Cocaine” w/ a QR code to this video. Then deliver it to big cartel’s offices. Source: 12 months ago

• GoDaddy VS Squarespace

  If you only sell a handful of products I can recommend using the free version of bigcartel.com. It's specifically made for selling arts and crafts, trinklets, etc. You can even set up a free custom domain on the free plan. Source: about 1 year ago

• my shop is on strike, but I've been thinking of leaving Etsy for awhile. Anyone have any alternatives?

  I don't think there's any marketplaces for handmade products (apart from Amazon Handmade) but if you want to have a shopping cart I recommend Big Cartel. It's remotely hosted (not self hosted) and it's designed for unsigned and independent creators (rather than department stores with thousands of products and categories).

• Hide CGI (or whatever those images are) or other alternatives

  The images are "Second Life" CGI, and they are fairly disgusting to me as well. There are other photography sites: smugmug.com, pexels.us, pixabay.com, unsplash.com, 500px.com, shutterstock.com, etc. Smugmug is the only one that comes close to the searching you can do on Flickr.

• Sending Photos to client

There are other sites like smugmug that will also do this for you. Source: over 2 years ago
