What software is used tocreate boxes like the one onEcost.com? |
|
I am looking to create a site
but need to present each
product differently. If you go
on ecost.com you will find
rectangular boxes saying
"holiday sale" or a laptop in
a box with cool graphic with a
price. I like to know what
photo edit software i can use
to do that.
If you know can you also tell
me what is the best way to
learn how to do it. Thanks |

There are quite a few graphics
at ecost.com. They would most
likely have been created using
Adobe Photoshop. |

I was reading through their
information, they acquire the
items they sell through
various companies at discount
prices and pass it on to you.
They sound and look legit. |

I don't think anyone can give
you a cost on the whole
process. There are way too
many variables, especially now
that prices can fluctuate
higher or lower at a moment's
notice.
I can give you a breakdown of
a few of the essentials:
- Male and Female dragons -
depending on things like
lineage who you buy them from,
these little guys can cost you
anywhere from $60 to several
hundred dollars. If you're
looking to breed right away,
you may want to purchase
proven breeders - which will
be much more expensive, but
will be more likely of giving
you a fine clutch. If you've
already got a couple and just
want to breed those, of
course, you know what you paid
for them.
- 2 SEPARATE enclosures,
possibly 3, for your adults
only. This is important.
Beardies are among the more
social of reptiles, but often
they still have problems with
dominance and intimidation.
Even male/female pairs that
have been kept together as
hatchlings may find themselves
fighting, or being intimidated
into illness or death. This is
a big deal, as undo stress can
complicate a pregnancy. (Not
that it ALWAYS will, but it
can and has been known to
happen.)
The very best way to handle
breeding would be for the male
and female to be kept
separately until you want them
to mate, then to be kept
together in a neutral
environment, and separated
after the female becomes
pregnant.
Barring that, you should at
the very least have the pair's
normal cage, and one to
separate the female into once
she becomes pregnant.
Depending on your enclosure
size, materials, the substrate
and decorations you choose,
each setup will probably run
you from $200 on up. Then
figure that you need to
maintain proper conditions,
which includes replacing
lights and substrate as
needed. On average, think at
least $10 maintenance a week
after everything is setup.
(The $10, of course, is if you
add up approximate upkeep
expenses for a year, and
divide by weeks. Some weeks
you may spend nothing, and
others you may drop $50.)
Once the babies are born, keep
in mind that you won't be able
to keep them all together in a
single enclosure for long.
Actually it's not recommended
at all. So you'll need cages
for each of the baby dragons
as well, until or unless you
sell them.
- An Incubator. This is
necessary to make sure that
the eggs have the necessary
conditions to successfully
hatch. Incubators can be
simple or complicated. You can
make one for very cheap, but
if you end up buying one,
it'll run you probably a
couple of hundred dollars or
more.
Just a word of advice. If you
have a couple of dragons and
it just occurred to you that
it might be fun to breed them,
or you could make a little
money off of them, please
consider a couple of things. A
LOT of expense goes into
proper breeding, so you aren't
likely to make any money back
from your initial clutch or
two. There a also MANY
unwanted beardies sitting in
reptile rescues, or abandoned
in some way, so please think
about where your babies could
end up. If you just want to
try it out, are you willing to
contribute to the numbers of
unwanted reptiles out there?
One last thing. Unless you
have buyers lined up for the
babies before you breed, you
may find yourself stuck with a
bunch of unsellable beardies.
Will you be able to care for
them properly if this becomes
the situation?
I hope everything works out
well for you. |
