Sell Your Flickr Photos for Cash

Leave a comment

Friends know that I am always in the loop for any new money making opportunities. Today I came across a website that helps people to buy and sell their Flickr images. I am a Flickr member, just not a heavy user but I believe many readers are into Flickr big time.

FlickrCash is the facilitator of image trading on Flickr.com. If you have images that you want to sell, you can do so easily thanks to features provided by FlickrCash. As an image publisher, though, the first thing you need to do is to protect your images using the auto/bulk watermarking of every image for every image owner on Flickr tool provided by FlickrCash.

For the Sellers, FlickrCash will also help them to accept payments safely and securely while archiving licences for public inspection.

For the Buyers, FlickrCash has made Flickr.com into a huge stock image marketplace where they can search for suitable images for their project and easily buy them.

Beginning next week, FlickrCash will be a subscription based service. HOWEVER, I have great news for you. If you register with FlickrCash NOW, your registration will be grandfathered into the change and your membership will be free for life.

So what are you waiting for? Register with FlicrkCash NOW and enjoy all the features it has to offer free for life.

Design a Fuel My Blog Widget and Win!

Leave a comment

I have been a happy member of the Fuel My Blog for months. They are so actively organizing competitions that I am so hoping to win because they always have exciting prizes to give away that are relevant to bloggers.

The latest is their Design a Widget competition. If you do not know what is a Fuel My Blog widget, look at my sidebar for the black, orange and yellow rectangular box, remember to click on it too and vote for my blog!

So, yeah, they are running this competition where the winner will win a free blog consultation from an expert from Better Business Blogging. Didn’t I say they always have relevant prizes?

Every blogger needs feedback from an unbiased third party, so this is a chance too good to be missed, and from a professional, no less. The thing is, not only Business blogs need such a consultation; even personal blogs need one too. Well, I wish I could stand a chance to win this too but I can’t even draw to save my life *sigh*

Peter Belisi – Luxury With Meaning

Leave a comment

Earlier today, I was actually thinking which charitable program I should feature on my blog. How could I forget Luxury With Meaning, a program at Belisi.com initiated by Peter Belisi, the fashion designer?

I love it when people make it easy for us to participate in their charity programs and Peter Belisi is no different. To do our part for Luxury With Meaning, we just have to purchase any Belisi product. A portion of the proceeds from the sale, no matter if the amount is large or small, will be channeled to the Luxury With Meaning program where we, the buyers, get to choose the cause that we would like to support.

We normally have no choice of which charitable body will receive our donation unless we do it directly but Peter Belisi has kindly given us this option. Thank you!

Check out Belisi.com now and get your favorite Belisi item whilst making a difference to someone in need.

McKenzie – Art Making A Difference

Leave a comment

 

I actually got to know about the charity fund raising program initiated by the award-winning artist, McKenzie, last month but did not have the opportunity to blog about her. She is trying to raise a million dollars in support of charitable organizations that include SaveDarfur, Global Green and Humane Society.

McKenzie is actually an old hand at fund-raising and I feel that what a person could do, two could do better, therefore, why not join forces to help her achieve her target of a million dollars sooner?

McKenzie has made it possible to let us internet users involve ourselves in her efforts. It actually is not difficult to do our part. All we are required to do is to visit her website at www.McKenzieArtStudio.com and click on the links or banners of her sponsors.

All revenue generated through our mouse click will be channeled to her fund called “Art Making A Difference”. In addition to this, part of the proceeds from sales of her art work will also be donated by McKenzie to her fund. So you actually have two options to donate, by clicking or by purchasing. And I am sure you can also help to spread the word.

Projector Rental Made Easy

Leave a comment

My sister’s company will be participating in a beauty and fashion trade show in New York City and the task of arranging for it fell on my sister. She has all the “luck” :-)

It is quite difficult given that my sister and her company are actually based in Tennessee and she has to make sure their booth is set up and ready at the trade show where they will also be giving a presentation.

I told her about a projector rental company that they can rent from and have it sent to the venue on time by FedEx. It will be hassle-free since this projector rental company can handle and request within the United States.

My sister was very happy to have found a solution. She had thought that she will have to carry her company’s projector on a flight to New York City.

Haha!

Screwed Categories

Leave a comment

It is funny that just slightly a month ago, I was lamenting the difficulty in categorizing my blogs to better describe them and yet fit the requirements of advertisers. Little did I know that it was just the tip of the iceberg.

Since the new roll out in late March, things have been horrible. By selecting all the general categories, I segmented myself out. I did not know that General Business is NOT Business/Entrepreneurism. General Entertainment is NOT Music/TV/Movies.

Did you know that I got a sinking feeling in my heart when I saved my category changes to my blogs only to realise that I qualified for NO opportunity at all? Yes, it was that bad. I was not alone, though, but that is no consolation for me.

The new roll out dictates that we can only change our categories once every thirty days. Out of desperation, I shot an appeal letter to Support. It has been more than a week now and my problem has yet to be addressed. I guess what they will do is to just delay replying me and by then, my thirty-day time frame would be open again and I could change my selection of categories, so problem solved, right?

Really, I am trying my best to be patient, but being disqualified for opportunities that I know fit my blogs well is not making things easier to swallow.

Wait, wait, wait, wait sumore!

Roller Blinds For The Home

Leave a comment

I was looking for blinds for my hone that is low on maintenance at an affordable price without compromising on quality. My sister told me that the answer is Roller Blinds, which she has also installed in her home.

I didn’t really know what she was referring to, so she showed me the website of terrysfabrics.co.uk where she bought her roller blinds from. She said that she had a satisfactory shopping experience at this online store, that’s why she is recommending it to me.

I really like the roller blinds as they come in so many different designs and will actually make good decorative wall pieces. I could even match the colors with my wall paint and curtains to make it look natural. I am sure that this is just what my home needs!
