GG joined yet another Creative World

You know, we are all very lucky to have so many places in the virtual universe to show off our work. We even have online shops which allow us to sell anything and everything from artwork for the walls to clothing and shoes to wear. And we enjoy having these shops for such a fantastic price … zero!!
So I’d just like to send out a public THANK YOU to those that paved the way and created our fantastic world of red bubbles!!
You are the ones who started me on this wonderful journey by creating RedBubble… this in turn brought me new friends, new discovery, inspiration, and took me back to my old creative self (with a slight techy twist). For all you wonderful friends I met along the way… here are lots of {{{hugs}}} and xxx for you :D (gushy I know, but thats just tough!!)
Just as a Look ma, no hands type of thing, here are a few of the places I was introduced to…
Georgiegirl at Zazzle is a fantastic online store. Not that I’ve sold more than one badge (thanks to Udonchow) and even though it takes a while to do, it’s easy to add new products… of which are many to choose from! Apparently it has a forum to chat in too, but I’ll leave that alone. I figure I’ve enough to do and chatting in FB, RB and Twitter is enough for me!!!
GeorgiegirlofRB chirps at Twitter somewhere to chat to myself via the universe. I love this place… its so simple to do. Just type out a thought or a few thoughts in mini chapters. From here I signed up for Tweburb and Twibes but have done nothing! Of course it would help if I knew what I was meant to do in them! On the to do later list :D
I have a blog called Floating Around in Bubbles. Just a place to brag about everything… but so much for writing every week. But that last one was written in April or May… talk about slack!! Will get onto that today too. Now, what to write about? hmmmm… think think think (all that comes is the rhyme by Pooh Bear about thinking and rumble tee tums!!!).
My newest portfolio is at Behance another place to show off my artwork and photography. It looks a bit blaze at the moment because I just joined up… I’ll add some artwork very very (very) soon!
Georgiegirl_oz at Cafepress Not much happening there… its been a bit neglected.
GeorgieGirlis at Flickr A virtual gallery of my photos. Named Georgiegirlis because I didn’t think of GeorgiegirlofRB (GG of RB) when I joined up. Hindsight is a marvellous thing… except my timemachine is on the blink!! Again :D
Time I gave my gallery some TLC and uploaded a few photos, which I’ll do today. edit… Just popped over to open it into my tabs. Geez its changed a bit!!! Oh well… next on the must do today list is CP and Zazzle!
Plurk not that I’ve been there for ages… my lack of karma shows that! Never mind… it was fun while it lasted!!
I’m sure there are more because I’ve so many bookmarks in this browser!! I don’t think I’ll add ‘cleaning out the bookmarks’ to the list of jobs to do, because that’ll take sooooooo long. Its like cleaning out the bookcase (who does that?) or toy cupboard… you end up either reading or playing with whatever you’re cleaning out!!! Or is that just me? hmmmm…

I tried out Pistol Clothing (an Australian tee site) this morning—no problem uploading a banner but several attempts at uploading artwork for tees were unsuccessful … will try again later, but would be interested in hearing from others who have joined Pistol

Cool Vector Dog banner!! I hope it goes well for you… every household should have a Vector Dog (or a Space Cat or Vector Cat) cos they make such awesome pets, I mean tees :D

Gee there must be a lot of you Jenny, I find Redbubble is more than enough for one of me, lol
georgiegirl replied
At least I never get bored or run out of stuff to do. And with them all being virtual, I don’t feel like I’m living in the fast lane and have time sometimes to paint, draw and take photos!!! But its no wonder though, that I feel like I haven’t got enough time in a day! Good thing my job is part time too :D
Esther's Art a...

georgiegirl replied

Don’t forget, to celebrate the Landing on the Moon, RB is giving everyone 15% OFF tShirts from today, for one week only PLUS Free Shipping if you buy 5 or more discounted tees!!

well u certainly have put yourself out there so may i ask is it paying off ….
georgiegirl replied
I guess it depends on what you think is good pay!! More and more people are recognising my Georgiegirl Cow and connecting her back to Redbubble, so for me, that’s fantastic.
As for sales (I presume that’s what you really mean)... I don’t know if its making any difference or not to sales. I seem to sell a greeting card a month… pretty awesome I think. Somebody out there likes my work enough to buy it!!!
All those sites are free to join and participate, so I’ve nothing to lose by joining them. If I hadn’t joined them, including our beloved RedBubble, I would not have met many of my awesome friends!!!
Support, friendship, encouragement and inspiration are much more important than sales :D I have a day job as a graphic designer to pay the bills!!
