Basic Shop Setup

Multiple Shops
On Skreened, you can have multiple shops to sell different types of designs. You can have funny t-shirt designs in one store, and another store dedicated to politics. They will each have their own unique URL, and can have a different design and title that fits the look and feel you want. You can organize each store even more by putting your designs into categories.

Setting up categories
You can organize your designs in your Skreened store by setting up categories. Your visitors can browse everything, or just designs in the category you have set up. Designs and stores don't have to have a category, but some people find it useful. In addition to organizing designs by category, you can use tags to help everyone find your designs when they search for a certain topic. Each of these categories also has their own RSS feeds.

Tags
Tags are words or short phrases, separated by commas, which describe the content of your design. This is how we power our search on Skreened. It's also how the rest of the web finds your work! Be sure to title, describe and tag every design with relevant and descriptive words.

Advanced Shop Configuration

CSS
Did you know that you can change the look and feel of your store by uploading customized CSS (style sheets)? They require a little bit of technical knowledge, but there are also some other web sites out there that can make things easy for you. Below are the list of attributes you can change, and the name of their possible attributes.

Commissions
Your commission is the amount that you add to the base price of an item. It is the exact dollar amount you get when your design is purchased. You can set up a storewide commission, or set it up for items individually.

For example, let's say you upload a design that you would like $4.00 USD for each time it sells. When creating that item, simply put "4" in the box for your commission. If someone orders that design on an item with a base price of 15.99, they will be charged $19.99 plus shipping and any applicable tax. You would then get $4.00.

If you want to buy your own item, just be sure that you are logged in and you will only be charged the base price for it.

Payment Schedule
Every 60 days, we tally up the commissions that are owed to you for sales from your store. If the total commission amount is over $50.00 USD, we will schedule a payment to you. If the total commission amount is under $50.00 USD, your commission will be paid out at the end of our 6-month interval.

Payment Forms
Skreened makes 2 payment options available for store owners; A check in US Dollars sent via US mail, or electronic payment sent to a paypal email address that you provide.
