Announcements

[NaturelMistik]

I will post team announcements and general Etsy info on this thread.

Let's get things started with a rather unpleasant announcement ... the USPS is having another rate increase!!! Read all about it here:

An early Happy New Year to everyone!! May 2015 bring all of you increased business, health and happiness!

Etsy has granted team captains the power of 'delete' - woo hoo! That means that I can clean up our discussions section and delete older/closed/redundant threads. Just an FYI in case you see a few things disappear over the next month. :-)

I just created a 'Shows' thread! Post your tips for displaying your items, the types of shows you enjoy attending, etc.

FYI: I just submitted a suggestion for a taxonomy change for the category 'Spirituality & Religion'. As you may know, it is currently buried 3 menus deep in the 'Home & Living' category - not an intuitive place to go looking for runes, tarot cards, pendulum boards and more. They said it will be reviewed, and if approved, will be changed (meaning moved up to the top level menu) during the next quarterly update. *fingers crossed*

Just an FYI in case this happens to us - there appears to be a bug which is resulting in random teams being either completely deleted, or having a large majority of their threads deleted. If you log in and discover this team missing, or a large chunk of the threads missing, convo or email (naturelmistik @ yahoo.com) me immediately so I can reach out to admin. Thank you in advance!

Remember a while back I posted about a suggestion I made for the quarterly taxonomy updates? They added two new subcategories:

Home & Living Home & Living > Spirituality & Religion > Psychic Readings - New Category

Home & Living Home & Living > Spirituality & Religion > Tarot Readings & Divinations - New Category

'Spirituality & Religion' is still buried 3 menus deep, but I will keep making the suggestion to bring that category up to the top tier. Also, feel free to submit the same request! The more people that ask, the more likely it will happen.

I just deleted a bunch of posts. They have been moved to the 'Business Tips, Ideas, Resources' thread, which is where I should have posted them in the first place. :-)

Just started this thread in the Promos section of the forums:

A quick note to let you know that Etsy is undertaking some major changes to teams and forums. This will probably cause our team to look a bit different, some threads may disappear, and there will be other changes that I have no way of predicting. Once the dust settles I will do my best to get us back to normal.
