The title hardly says it all, folks.
But, if you've recently attempted to view certain products only to have an empty page appear, please understand that this is only a temporary failure.
"Because of some temporary technical difficulties" some of my designs are currently unavailable for you, my valued customer. Be assured that all efforts are directed towards their revival as we speak (blog). I apologize for the inconvenience, of course.
From what i've been able to determine, most of the designs that have been "affected" are a number of my more recent designs. We hope to have them returned to their rightful places in my shop within the next few days. With that in mind, i hope that you take a minute to stop back here at Bakktalk in the very near future to shop then where you cannot shop now.
That being said, many other designs are unaffected and are just as deliciously tempting now as when they were originally built. Please show them you care: browse them, shop them and buy one or two things. It will make them and me feel a little better about this current "image crisis". Even if you don't buy, your understanding will be appreciated. I hope to see you and those lost designs back in my shop very, very soon!
Have a Great Weekend... it looks like it's gonna be a beautiful one here in SE Pennsylvania!

Bakktalk and its "Fungus" section...
It's already the beginning of April! I've gone over a month without a word, but i've been busy. My small collection of self-made "fungus woodburnings" has finally been digitized and creatively adapted to several of Cafepress' products. You can and should visit the "Woodburnings" section at Bakktalk. It's a unique section of the store that deserves a look. As you can see, the section is fairly small, and the products available are, at this point, limited to tile boxes, the framed and unframed tiles, mouse pads, note cards and postcards. I am currently experimenting with other products to find the most aesthetically pleasing manner in which to place my images: mugs, apparel and even the throw pillows that are available.
I hope several things: 1) that somebody is actually reading these posts; 2) that i can expand on this section successfully, and fairly soon; and 3) that somebody buys a boatload of products within this section. Heck, if i could sell even one or two items, i'd be tickled. Being tickled is good. Most of the designs in Bakktalk have been created specifically for this store. The "Woodburnings" section is different and is just a little special to me.
I've been a little distracted lately... I've had to put some major time into the graphic design work i do for a local printing company, and it looks like that might continue for some time. It's good because it's real money, and that stuff is like cash to me. Gotta pay the bills. But it's bad because i would much rather be putting time into Bakktalk on a regular basis. Life's tough, huh?
Not much to report otherwise. My only major complaint is that i would really love to customize my shop's look, but lack the web skills to do it. I might just have to pass that off to some skilled individual, along with Web Marketing... i'm not too sure about that either.
Oh, well. If, after browsing the store, you have some suggestions or ideas that might improve my the shopping experience in my shop, please post a comment. I would really like some input. If i get some reasonable suggestions, that just might push me into hiring some smart cookie to revitalize Bakktalk. It couldn't hurt!
