I've received a couple emails from Mpix today that they're offering boutique packaging soon.  Any word from Zenfolio about integrating that offering with our storefronts here?

I'd like to see a boutique packaging option as well, esp. for my wedding and senior clients.  The helps make their shopping/buying experience more special and helps justify higher print prices.  Better quality = better value = happier clients = more referrals = more business = happier me. If Zenfolio and Mpix are already working on ...

Will do--thanks, Jason. For future reference, is there a way for clients to seek help for order issues themselves?  Or do they need to contact me so I can contact you and you can contact Mpix?

A client placed an order through my Zenfolio site (http://gowinphotography.zenfolio.com) and a few of the prints from Mpix have come back "very dark."  How do I direct her to have those prints redone?  Have searched through help pages but can't seem to find the answer. Thanks-- Michael

I'll second the request for both a random sort order option and "auto play." I'm creating slideshows as portfolio samples for specific pages on my site--a home page show, wedding/engagement show, senior show.  I've created collections for the photos that I want in the shows and add photos to the collections from the ...

Thanks, Kevin.  I've been collecting (and paying!) sales tax to the state since I started my business a few years ago.  Transitioning to ZF, though, I wasn't sure exactly how this worked.  Now it's clear.  Thanks for your input! Cheers-- Michael

Thanks for the response, Paul.  This seemed more clear when I was with InstaProofs since I took the orders and did the fulfillment.  As a result, I collected sales tax for sales in IL.  Since signing on with ZF/Mpix, though, and they now handle fulfillment, the matter became less clear. I've done some further research this ...

Now that ZF offers the option to collect sales tax (which I see is now turned "on" by default in my account), I'm confused.  I live in Illinois.  Since ZF did NOT collect sales tax on vendor-fulfilled orders before, I'd assumed that my compensation was simply a commission and not subject to IL state sales tax ...

I spoke with a client today who said her parents tried to place a print order through Zenfolio this week and on two separate occasions got "kicked off the site" before they could complete the order.  She didn't know how long they were in the cart before completing the ordering process, and I don't know if the cart has a ...

Ditto on the InstaProofs e-mail features.  I've used InstaProofs for the last two years and the automatic e-mails to clients have been helpful for sales.  I moved to Zenfolio this month since I don't have the time to self-fulfill orders any longer but miss the client e-mail.  Would like to see something similar ...
