Hey ordered a chip and all, looks great...
One thing really stands out at me though, your website.
I am an experienced web designer on summer vacation looking for a project, I specialize in php scripting... I would be willing to take on your website for a more professional look. Thoughts?
Would it be ok of me to kinda build something up and send it to you and see what you think? Not looking for much money, but if the mod goes ok it should be the least I can do . PM/Email me for more details on my experience.

Yes this site is not working that great it's limited to 1 product per page and product in one shopping cart from different pages get charged for shipping twice etc.
I'd love to see what a pro can do.

Ok I will try and throw together a basic layout. I wont be home all day today, my aunt is taking me out to lunch for my bday (really the 10th ^^, I will be 17!), So I should still be home later... Just got up... (Not really in a html/coding mood yet...). I can try to get a design by mon/tues or something next week.
Kinda in response to other thread, but ties in here as well... It is really easy to add on your own damn forum. And looking at the images you already host on your site, bandwidth isn't hardly an issue if you keep the forum just on your mod chip and similar topics (Don't need to make a topic for every chip under the sun if it is your forum ). then you don't have to worry about the hostility of anyone else. I have worked intensely with phpbb (torn it apart, and integrated into sites) but I think it is really feature limited, I would be glad to give vbulletin a try. I love to see the whole integration where you can log in on main site, and see it in the forum as well.
I have never used paypal for any transactions before (well I have never done a site for selling things), but I am sure it is possible, paypal seems very powerful. I love paypal that it can take all cards and stuff without ever having to handle them as well as it lets poeple take money almost frozen in their paypal... (Like me I had the 10$ sitting in there forever from a project I did for someone and I just now spent it.)

Hmm kinda made a header, looked ok, nothing special... what do you think for direction? (Ignore the body it is nothing atm.)
I like the rollover style, but looking at it now I am not happy with font choice... but whatever I am going to bed now.

It's not looking too shabby, has some potential.

It looks okay the main deal is the shopping cart though and if you ever noticed alot of the other sites they don't have a shopping cart and you have to email orders in. The reason they lose their pay pal is the way their cart reacts with pay pal so I might be better off keeping this cart and it's enhancements that have allowed it to work for almost 3 years.
It might look crappy but compared to other sites at least it's click and go.

Naturally the day after I post that we are under Pay pal attack and we are taking email orders then linking to the pay service. The compeettion doesn't play fair and we don't expect them to go down without a fight. So we are under pay pal lock down but orders are still processed like within 2 hours as was the case today anyway.

Gosh since i got the mod chip its been hella busy after install i have been to like 3 lans (one at my house)... death in family (uncles wife, cancer)... work... burning of games... (i have doubled my xbox game collection...) havent touched the new page but after those lans i think i am gonna make another order of at least 4 of those sunday chips... (my friends are jealous...) so it looks like i will be making another order soon... but i leave tomorrow until monday... so hopefully then i should have the cash and order them. Then I should have some free time for good old html/php.
