    Announcing Acme-Tek.com New Widgets for AMS

    I’m pleased to invite you all to my new web site Acme-Tek (http://www.acme-tek.com). Here you will find a collection of widgets for AutoPlay Media Studio.

    Toolbar Buttons Galore is a collection of over 700 AMS buttons. These 4-state buttons allow you to add ‘standard’ toolbars to all of your AMS v.5 projects.

    System Animations is a collection of over 50 different ‘standard’ animations for both versions 4 & 5 of AutoPlay Media Studio.

    You’ll also find links to other AMS related web sites, and a freebie section with masks and backgrounds suitable for use in both AMS v.4 & v.5

    Hope to see you all there!

    Very Nice. Do they arrive as fast as the Acme products on the show?

    Thanks guys. I’m not sure if I can deliver them quite as quick as that ‘other’ Acme does, but since they are each less than 2MB, I should be able to deliver them by email within 24 hours. This is my first foray into selling something through PayPal, so ultimately it depends on how fast they send me the conformation email. I think that it’s all automated on PayPal’s end, so it should be quick.

    I just put an order in Jim. I am impressed with the breath of icons available!



    I am looking forward to using these Toolbar icons in my projects!

    Also, thank you for the "nod" about my Web site on your Web site. I am in the middle of uploading a link to your Web site as I type this.

    Sincerely,
    Intrigued

    Toolbar Buttons Galore - JimS - Acme-Tek

    Jim, I am very pleased with my Toolbar Buttons Galore purchase from you!

    These Toolbar buttons are fantastic!

    Now, my applications will look just like one's made in C++ or VB, for example (but, of course it takes a lot less time in AMS 5!).

    I also like that you have included various elements so that I can create custom buttons!

    Outstanding and well worth the price tag!

    Very Sincerely,
    Intrigued

    Here I'll stick this thread for you. Just a tip Jim, if you are marketing, you will get better results with:

    "Icons, widgets, and toolbar buttons to make your projects look like real software! Announcing ACME widgets vol. 1 at a special introductory price!"

    than:

    "Announcing Acme-Tek.com New Widgets for AMS "

    Then price the product 10% higher, but mark it down 20% with a "red letter" sale for the first 60 days. You'll get more response. That's just a loose example, play with the percentages. Anyhow I'll leave this thread at the top of the forum for a few days.

    Thanks Brett, Corey, Intrigued, Worm, et al., your support is quite appreciated.

    Intrigued, first, thanks for the reciprocal link from your web site www.amsuser.com It’s a pleasure to help point out your site to other AMS fans. Also, thanks for the nice review.

    You hit the nail right on the head. I purposely designed the toolbar buttons to help AMS projects have the same ‘look and feel’ as programs written with that ‘other’ development
    environment. I figure that my toolbar buttons combined with Brett’s PopupMenu plug-in, give AMS developers most everything they need to create programs with the ‘standard’ look and feel that many users have come to expect.

    I agree with you totally, that AMS makes the whole development process faster and easier than using other, more expensive, programming tools. I guess that’s one of the big reasons that we are all here. That, and the exceptional value that this forum brings to the table.

    Thanks again everyone for helping make my new web site a success.

    Jim, did you submit your product to the dev guys for inclusion in our add-on database? That's one thing to do. Plus I think it's time to create a page here on our site to help promote these great sites you are all putting up. Let me confab with the powers that be and come up with a "Friends of Indigo Rose" page or something, perhaps similar to our resellers page.

    Great sig.

    Sorry Corey, I missed your post before I replied last. First, thank you for making this thread ‘sticky’, I’m overwhelmed with the generosity you guys have given me.

    As for the tips you offer, thank you, I completely agree with you. Although, instead of raising the price, and offering a discount, Let’s see if I can do one even better. How about a holiday season sale? ‘Tis the season, as they say.

    So how’s this:
    Everyone who orders Toolbar Buttons Galore before Jan 31, 2005 will also receive the System Animations collection absolutely free. That’s very near a 25% bonus! It’s my little way to say “Happy Holidays” to all my fine friends here in the forum.

    By the way, if anyone happens to order before I get my web site changed to reflect the new ‘bonus’ offer, don’t worry, you have my word that I’ll make good on the deal.

    Thank you all for helping me get this off to a great start!

    JimS, I wish you success! It's exiting when people dare to try something new and I know you as a friendly contributor to this forum. I just *HAD TO* order your Toolbar Buttons Galore. The Pay-Pal site was a bit funny: "Your first name; as it appears on the credit card; is NOT VALID." I have a middle name which I use abbreviated (with a dot); I had to remove the dot. "Your city is NOT VALID". The name contains a national character (o-slash). Without the slash = Positive validation!

    Your site: Great; easy to read, personalized. Just a hint: The "Free stuff" link in the text is invalid (../free_stuff.htm). Your link site: The three last ones, are they valid to day? (Don't misunderstand, Jim, I just want to be helpful).

    I'm looking forward to the delivery!
