Zazzle Spain

Just was checking out Zazzle.es to practice my Spanish, and IMHO Zazzle needs to re-think their front page choices for Spain.  Here's some of the products I found featured there:



OK, their "Cosas Nuevas" (New Things) look fine, but the Crea Tu Producto section  (Create a Product?)...really?  They couldn't find any more interesting templates than "Your Image Here" to feature?   And since that's not even in Spanish...well, you can see the problem.  Makes me re-think some of my photo template designs that have "Your Photo Here" in stead of a cover photo in the frame.  I wasn't thinking of how that would translate (or not translate) to other languages. 

Anyways, just kinda made me chuckle.  Really makes me appreciate how they've re-done the front page on the US version of  Zazzle.com.

The Facebook 20% Rule

I gather facebook recently changed the rules regarding Cover Photos on business pages--Text in your photo can now only cover 20% of the area.  So what does that look like?  EosGrafx provides a tutorial here on how to make a graphic that  conforms to the new rules.
