What I Learned:
I created a simple option for clients to pay directly through the website. The client has a specific area in which to add recent news that automatically updates on the home page.
This post is for my clients. I want to list a tool for finding colors to be used on your website.
The common color system used in building websites is the Hex Triplet, which is a 6 digit, 3-byte code that defines the red, green, and blue parts to a particular color. Black is #000000, white is #FFFFFF, and #FF0000 is True Red. To learn more, click here.
Here is a tool to pick colors for your website. Once you have the color that you like, let me know the 6 digits after the # sign:

Just move around the circle and the arrows on the side bar to get your desired color.
Today, we are officially launching The Entrepreneur School. This is the most significant project I have worked on over the last few years. I am a co-founder & part owner of the company. But more important than that, I studied under one of the faculty members of The Entrepreneur School, Jim Beach, during my Graduate Degree studies in International Business at Georgia State University. It is a big honor to be working with Jim now on this project and I can’t wait to see how this teaching impacts other lives.
The foundation of The Entrepreneur School is to teach low-risk approaches to starting your own business. The site consists of Modules that contain videos, slides, and text. Each module covers a different topic, such as How to Export, How to Find Ideas, and How to Write a Business Plan.
The other major focus of The Entrepreneur School is dispelling myths that keep people from pursuing an idea. These myths could be things like you need to have a lot of money, or you need to be super creative, or you need to be a big risk taker. By countering these myths, The Entrepreneur School puts you in the right mindset for proceeding with your business idea without being hindered by doubts.
Please take a look at The Entrepreneur School. You can watch the first Module videos for free and the rest of the modules can be accessed for just $29/month.
I am currently using the WordPress SSG Google Audio Player on one of my sites. For some reason, it worked in every browser except for Firefox. This was the case for both Mac & PC.
The way I fixed this was by going to the Settings for the SSG Google Audio Player and placing a check mark in the “Omit SWFObject in <head> section.”
Simple solution.
I looked all over for a solution and didn’t find anything. Hope this helps out anyone else having the same trouble.
I just looked around the internet for a while trying to find a solution for sending HTML-based emails. Most newsletters are composed in HTML format through a program like Dreamweaver. But the problem is, you can’t just copy and paste HTML code into Gmail or most of the other email clients. If you want to send out a custom newsletter, chances are, you are going to need to send an HTML file.
If you are using a Mac and have Microsoft Entourage, here is one of the only free solutions I found:
Please note that once you set this up, all emails will be formatted like this in Entourage. So, it might be wise to use Apple Mail as your main email program and use Entourage just for sending out HTML emails.
Paid solutions include using programs such as Constant Contact or MailChimp. Another paid solution is MaxBulk Mailer, which is a great solution for managing a contact list and sending out HTML-based emails.
Here is a list of links you can use to test your website for malware or other problems. Just replace ‘yoursite’ with your actual domain name you would like to test:
I just wrote a blog for The Entrepreneur School on RSS feeds. Click the link below to find out what they are and if you need one for your blog:

Notes:
The design of this website was completed by a local Atlanta designer, Ruth Fowler. I took her design and integrated the design with WordPress. I created separate pages for the ‘Our Work’ page, the home page, and the custom blog page. I also integrated a Zoom feature for images on the ‘Our Work’ page so that the user can look at a detailed view of the stitching of the dresses. I think this is a great business idea. I look forward to seeing how the website assists in the client’s business.
