We’ve just released 4 free web-to-print skins to spurse up the looks of your site. You can use them as is or download the source and modify to your requirements. Read instructions on how to use them.

Jeans web-to-print skin

Olive web-to-print skin

We released a new web-to-print skin. It is blue, it is simple and it is good looking. We called it G-skin because we took G-mail as an inspiration, but then it all veered off-course in terms of the looks while the name stuck. A web-to-print G-skin that is.

The CSS is located here: http://www.zetaprints.com/skins/G-skin/styles.css

Paste this URL into CSS file text box on Branding/Layout options page in your web-to-print admin.

You can always copy the CSS locally and modify it to suite your looks. Changing colors is easy. Just change the color values in the CSS. There are no b/g images to modify for this. Try ColorLovers if you need some inspiration.

Our team is back in full strength (almost) and we’ll start rolling out some changes you need to know in advance.

Asynchronous image uploading

Images will be uploaded as soon as they are selected. This will eliminate the problem of the uploads being too large. Users should not notice any difference, only it will be faster.

If you think this will disadvantage your users, please, email us with your concerns. We may be able to leave your store on the old interface for some time.

Skin color changes feature will be removed

We will be removing the color changing feature for web-to-print store skins. You will need to use CSS to make appearance changes. There will be no change in the skin appearance, but if you are planning to change colors soon we suggest you find someone with CSS knowledge now to help you. Any web designer or web programmer should be able to do it.

We updated most of our free web-to-print skins.

Changes:

• Fixed some bugs and inconsistencies in the UI.
• Changed the emphasis of controls to make it easier for users to navigate.

The old skins that some of you are using remain unchanged. There will be no update to those files. All the updated skins are sitting in a new location. You have 3 options:

• Keep using your current skin as is. No action required.
• Switch to the new skin and get automatic updates. Go to http://www.zetaprints.com/help/category/skins/, choose a skin and grab the new files location.
• Grab skin files, place them on your own web server and make changes as you wish. Download ZIP files or check out of SVN.

The new skins will be constantly updated at their new location. We are looking forward to your feedback on what should be changed to make them better.
