Even if these recommendations were written 2 years ago, they are still up-to-date. I will have to improve several issues concerning the usability, especially the payment options and the checkout process. Also i would like to have more then 1 product photo per wig, but this problem is not easy to solve with Zen-Cart. Thank you very much for providing these helpful insights for the community.

This actually helps me as I sometimes sell stuff on Ebay. It’s not quite the same but it is true that the right photo and description will often make or break an auction. I’ve found though that it’s not too hard to take professional-looking shots of products yourself. Use a plain, light-coloured base and background, preferably white or close to it, and shoot in really good light and you will get some good photos fit to use in your store or for your auctions. I set my digital camera to slightly underexpose the photos, the default settings of most digital cameras seem to overexpose and the details often wash out.
