Interesting concept. Never heard of that one before...

Thanks.
As you can imagine, it's pretty rare for me to sell a product. (There
are *billions* of fractal galleries, many much nicer than mine.)

Ooo... Some guy called Seamus who lives in Arizona. Damn, I get $3 for
that! :-D
Mmm, interesting. Inspecting the list, I can give you the following
useless statistics:
- This is the first sale of any product that wasn't a print.
- Only one person has ever purchased more than one product from me.
(LOL! Oh, wait... does that mean? No, it was in a single order...)
- The majority of customers had male-sounding names. (7 male, 3 female,
1 ambiguous.)
- All products were shipped to USA addresses. (Except one that went to
Canada.)
- Highest ever royalty was $3.32 (so this purchase is actually quite
close to that). Lowest was $0.95 (tied). Most were exactly $1.33.
Looking at my referrals page, I find that 100% of the cash earned was
*me* referring *myself* to various products. LOL! But yes, I made $0 in
terms of referrals for *other customers*. Oh well... [inserts Zazzle
address into sig]

Meh. So many statistics, I forgot to mention... The tie ordered was
"Silver Shadow":
http://www.zazzle.com/MathematicalOrchid/product/151149562148262876
In other words, one of the least psychopathic ties I'm selling. ;-)
[Also quite a long way down the list, so somebody has probably searched
the whole thing.]
Personally, I wonder just what you could possibly put on a tie that
would actually be cool. But maybe that's just me?

I was going to, but my brother changed jobs and doesn't wear a tie any

It's not feature creep if you put it
at the end and adjust the release date.

Yes. Not sure why that's relevant, tho.
(And yes, I really did call him up to ask if he still wore ties. :-)

So far 100% of the products I've sold were to people who live in the
USA. (Presumably due to the shipping charges and long waits for other
parts of the world. The bannar proudly claims "ships within 24 hours!",
but that's not much use if it takes 2 weeks to arrive anyway...)

LOL!
