I've been working on a t-shirt shopping site project for www.iowish.com for a while now and am starting to fully realize my vision of how I wanted to display the custom shirt options thanks to NC 3.1's attribute image ability (among other great features of 3.1) and Nop-Templates' responsive Jewelry theme and the great help they have provided me to customize the CSS and plugin views.
While I still have more basic product image work to do, I'm about to test an image-overlay technique utilizing the 7Spikes (nop-templates) Product Ribbons plugin that basically lets me overlay a transparent design image on top of blank apparel images so that my customers can see almost exactly how a particular shirt design will look on their choice of shirt colors & styles. This "trick" alone will save me literally 1,000's of hours of graphics work, tons of server space and - if all goes according to vision - I'll be able to release another t-shirt site with over 3,000 designs in literally a matter of days instead of several months & headaches.
*** UPDATE - moved to Alicante theme by NopTemplates. :)
I'm always looking for fun new plugins, CSS tricks and I'm willing to share my experience to help save others from going through the troubles I've learned from - such as what plugins, themes, discount scenarios (etc.) work well in certain situations and device screens. I've also become a near "expert" on GoDaddy VPS/Dedicated server setup to prep for a highly functioning NopCommerce installation. I'm also very open to ideas, suggestions and help with projects that I'm working on because while we each have a good vision to start our projects with, the expertise and outside viewpoints of others can almost always help us realize our visions! :)
Happy 'Nop'ping!
