Thread: Do you have maps to sell?

Sounds like a great idea but... it would have been nicer if you had waited until it was all ready to go before announcing it...

I'd love to submit some work over there whenver you are ready but, I need more info regarding pricing and whatnot. I would also say that this post borders on the lines of spam but, I like the idea so I'm not gonna gripe.

Feel free to PM me whenever you launch the publishers area and I'll be most eager to join up.

I gave this thread a LOT of thought in regards to spam myself. To be honest, I think it would have been a wee bit kosher if you'd have asked me first before advertising your site on here, but since it is on topic, I'm going to allow it for now.

If things like this get out of hand though, I don't think I'll continue to allow it. One thing you could also consider is to advertise on this site through my google ads...I believe Fractal Mapper has done this, hence the fact that full-size banner ads occasionally pop up on the ad-sense...if you aren't sure how to go about that, let me know.

Because only I have access to the Ecommerce setup page, I have to hand-type or "cut-paste" your product name, product description short, product description long, product thumbnail and pricing information myself.

The script is simply a means to upload this directly, however, if you wish to email this info directly, along with your name, paypal email address. I create a temporary FTP account on my site for you to upload map files. You can do this now. I will have the scripts up by Monday or Tuesday. (They are up, but need some tweaking still.)

Prices are on ecommerce site under "color map printing". Determine proposed map dimensions at sq.ft. price, add lamination, then add your "publisher license fee" to get customer cost. Product placed in Ecommerce shopping cart site - all costs paid for by me. 30 days after a sale is made I money transfer your fee payments to your paypal address.

Is this "SPAMMY", maybe? I apologize. My intent here is there will never be a cost to you (anyone who might be interested)

I want to create another platform or avenue to promote your cartographic skills, instead of "hit or miss" RPG publisher jobs. This is really more self promotion, I just take the cost out of printing, shipping and online transactions out of the cost of marketing your map product. You'd still need your own site to promote your product - but I'd post a page on the main site focusing on you and your products with link directly to Ecommerce page for purchase - also at no cost to you.

I have a Google Adsense account setup - haven't used it yet. As "Duvek" suggests - get the scripts uploaded and fully operational. Once that is done
I will advertise here first!

Again I apologize for any misconceptions regarding possible SPAM nature I may have presented.

Its ok...I haven't deleted it have I? As I said, this is definitely on topic stuff you're doing, and I don't see what you're doing as competing...so its good to go for now.

In case anyone wished to berrate me in person

I am sharing booth 1829 with GM Syndicate at GENCON Indy. Over 20 maps will be on display, that I've printed and laminated. ProFantasy booth will feature one of my printed maps. All the maps used in Goodman Games Dungeon Crawl Classic (mostly B/W) will be my print work as well. So you can get an idea of the kind of work I produce for you.

Looking forward to anyone interested in my idea!

Perhaps you could take some pictures from GenCon and post them here for those of us not lucky enough to go.

I'll definitely be taking photos at GENCON Indy - so sure, I'll post them here with permission from the administrator, of course!

I'll be networking while at the show, so I'll take more than just pictures of my stuff!

By all means post pics!!!
