How do I set up a shop (or cafe/restaurant)?
1. Think of a name e.g. Starbucks, McDonalds, Wal Mart, and so on
2. Make a list of items you are going to sell and for how much
Each shop must have at least 10 items (eg. 10 different types of bread or a mix of 10 items for example).
Though for a great shop you should have much more than 10 items, though 10 items is a good place to start.
3. Optional step - add images
i) Find some images on google and save them to your computer.
ii) Resize these images on paint,etc if they are huge e.g. over 400 width and 400 height
iii) Upload these to www.photobucket.com or the image host featured on the forum aka the "Upload an Image" part
iv) use the url to the image the site gives you and add it in between the [/IMG] tags (or just click the IMG button and paste your url into the input form it gives you).
Example: [/IMG]Bread 2 gold
Milk 3 gold
4. Put this information together in a thread. Here is a template example:
If you want to add images then it would change to:
Hope this helped. Post your own thread with your shop name, and begin.
How much does it cost to set up?
