MWP-Design Website UP-Date

Hi everyone. I am glad to report some major updates on MWP-Design website. My main business website. I know it has been offline for the majority of this year but is now working perfectly and I have fully redesigned the Website. It has a lot of functionality and brings everything together in one place. I am going to share the updates and pictures. Right side is the main MWP-Design Website. I now have a online designer. Pick your product like a Mug in this example but it could be any that I do. Add text or your own pictures on both sides and get it printed. I also have a huge collection on ready made templates (designs) and clip art. You can pretty much design anything online that I sell from business cards to scratch cards, letterheads, Hoodies, Socks. It is so easy to use. When developing the online designer it was the most important thing for me that it was easy to use. That a novice and a pro can use it. Not can you choose and pick templates and clipart but you can also upload your own design. There are millions of possibilities and you can use the designer free of charge. There is no extra to use it. New Templates (Designs) will be regularly added so there will be something new all the time. The Domain and Webhosting page is already fully finished, and those customers having a domain or hosting with us can log into their account and manage every aspect of it, extend their packages, order new ones, check and transfer domains. Our low prices are here to stay.  Of course all the other hosting related services like SSL certificate, VPN, WordPress Hosting, VPS, Dedicated Server are all available there too and you can place your orders and use our account area to manage your account. If you wish MWP-Design can design your Website for you too. As me for the latest offers.  Those are the latest T-Shirts I have made, and the website as you can see will have a chat function too. I am expecting that I will be finishing the whole website within the next month or two. So that all the products that can be designed in the designer will be online and fully working and that the others that are ready made will be uploaded. I will keep you posted. As always please comment on my blog, like it and share it! Let me know what you want to read about it and I will do my best to cover the topic. 

New Christmas Scratch Cards

I started creating Christmas Scratch Cards As you can see there are fully designed front scratch card and at the back there is a business card in the same horizontal format with all my details on it. Customers can scratch off the round field to review what they get.  Yes, you can’t see it yet as I keep the content a secret until the cards are up on my esmerch.store website. There are going to be two more designs I am currently working on. As always, please comment on the post and share it with your friends. If you have a special design request please feel free to contact me.

Not a big update but

It’s not a big update today but something I want to share with y’all. Ive made 3 new T-Shirt designs well OK two one is for myself and I think you can guess which one it is. The third one with the dog in the heart shape is flexible It can be used for a mug, t-shirt, or slate stone to remember a loved pet that has passed away. It is one of the most frequently requested designs and I thought I do one now that is available to anyone.  I will make them available on MWP-Design soon.

Back to normal

This website, my blog is back to normal. It has been running on my backup server for a week as the main server has been out of order. I’ve now finished re-installing the operating system Debian on the server Ingrid and setup a new server control panel called Keyhelp Pro. It is running much more secure than the previous Ubuntu with cPanel. I am really sorry for the issues that were caused through the server outage. Over the next weeks all the sites are going to be moving back to Ingrid and the backup server New York will be doing what t’s supposed to do backups.

Outage

Hi all! I am really sorry for any inconvenience some of you had over the past week. There has been an outage on my server and some pretty hefty issues. My server 1 Ingrid had a encountered a virus infection and the control panel I used on this server Ingrid was cPanel and that had a malfunction too. So the whole Ubuntu system has been affected and the server went down. Unfortunately some of the content of this Blog pammesberger.co.uk had gone missing and the layout has reverted back to the 2023 layout. I really apologise for this. I will be working hard to get the site back to what it had been. Many of the blog articles are restored. The BROOLED website is back online too. This site has not been affected so much as the rest of the domains. All content is there and all products and the whole layout is there too. I have tested the website today and the functionality is still working as it should be. Thank goodness. The Website Thermomix-Consultant.com is fully offline as the database had been lost during the outage and I will need to get the site done new. Unfortunately it will take some time to get this site back up. Pridemug.uk is still being investigated. At the moment it looks like the site design is still there and the online designer where you can design and upload your designs to get them printed is working too. The site should be back shortly. MWP-Design.co.uk has been fallen ill to the virus and the whole site design and content seems to have been lost. It will need to be fully recreated and it can take some time until the website is back online. I am very sorry for this. At this time all sites working or not have been migrated to my 2 server New York. The server is a bit small to host all the sites but it is secure and uses Debian OS with Keyhelp as it’s control panel. Once the server Ingrid has been restored fully it will be hosting Debian operating System (OS) and Keyhelp as Control Panel. Working websites will be one by one migrated back to Ingrid once they are working and New York will server it’s original purpose again as trial and backup server. Again, I am very sorry for this to have happened but it was beyond my control.

My Designs

I’ve mentioned before that I have updated my website and in my Etsy Shop there is quite a few designs I’ve already created, On Etsy there are mostly my clothing line, mugs and flasks. I have uploaded some of my older last year and 2022 designs and some of the new designs I have made the last two weeks. I know this could really work out nice but we have to see. The PrideMug website that has all my pride designs now also has a Shopify website and mobile store. I know not everyone agrees with my Pride designs and I have received a massive shitstorm on Facebook but honestly I don’t care. Those are my designs and I stand by them. They are one part of me and I like to be creative and do what is unexpected. This is why I have decided to separate those two brands. Also on MWP-Design you see all the print designs I do for flyers business cards postcards. I am not limited to Clothing. The likely hood people are reading this blog is slim and this is also something I don’t care about. I do it for me and for my benefit. It show’s how far I have come. The company setup in the US is also going ahead. I have setup the phone number already and the street address is in the works. It is all taking time and does not go from one day to the other.

Busy Week

Wednesday I was back at my day job working from home on my Union day. I so much wished my vacations would have lasted a bit longer it was definitely to short, but hey Christmas is coming soon and I booked the 20/12 to the 7/1 off. So I really hope I get all the days I was booking…  I’m really glad it’s Friday tomorrow and that the week is over. I know you’s say it was a short week but well enough to do. Thinking of Christmas I have designed a lot of Scratch Cards lately to give to my faithful customers. So I made branded cards for Avon, Amway, Nutrilite and The Body Shop. Maybe it was a task a bit to big and not thought through properly I could have just made one or two with just my own branding on. But this way, I can make it more related to what people purchased from me. Not sure what’s better really. I’m happy with my designs, and some you can see below. I can’t believe everyone is already talking about Christmas it’s still quite a while but the shops already sell advent calendars and Christmas packaging. What a strange time. The next thing that was going on was Ralf. My Lurcher dog, I decided after I have been fostering him for some time to adopt him so when I get paid next month I will take the steps necessary to officially adopt Ralf as my pet. He’s so much a member of the family already and I can’t imagine him that someone else would adopt him. He’s such a wonderful dog and yes he has issues from his past but I have enrolled him in Reactive Dog classes with the Dogs Trust and an extra sessions with behavioural specialists. Its not cheap but as every member of the family and as the commercial for Olay says He is worth it… On the next side you see some pictures of Ralf I am sure he won’t mind them being shown… This afternoon I tried the first print run of the scratch cards, on my Minolta Bizhub c450i printer and the business card cutter, in fact the cards are going to be business card size and at the back they’re going to have my contact details so customers know who gave it to them  but the margins are still a bit off so will be going back to the drawing board tomorrow afternoon and make sure I fix the problem, and then hopefully the back and front page will aline properly and I can get it printed. It’s been a long run to get that far. It is however very satisfying feeling to know it’s been done and now I can print it… I was hoping to get some training Videos to watch and get my Cameo 4 Pro that I purchased for my Birthday. Can you believe I still have not used it? Well with having started to re-design my MWP-Design Website I’ve not really had the time for that. I hope I can manage maybe this weekend. I would really like to know how to use it especially since I purchased the Business License for the Silhouette Studio yesterday. At least it’s only a one time license and not an annual fee a lot of software you have to re purchase every year now but by the looks of it with them it is a one time thing and you need it to run the Cameo 4 Pro.  Anything you want to read about? Why not post an reply to this blog post?? Just let me know you’re reading it.

MWP-Design

oday I have decided to give MWP-Design an overhaul. It will receive a complete new design and navigation. It will also get a new online designer, where people will be able to design everything themselves or they can change an existing design. I hope when I have changed the design that the website will get me orders. The last design clearly has not worked because over the last 6 months I’ve not had a single order or request, so something was clearly off. I’m also re developing the content that I am going to display. Maybe I do a more personal approach no idea if it’s working or not but worth a try. I will post pictures of the new site design, once it is completed. I am working hard on it during my annual leave from work to get it all up and running again. It is not just an investment in time to re arrange everything I also invest some money into the site. The new online designer I will be using can connect right with my Minolta Bizhub printer and once an order has been placed and is paid for it automatically can send the order to the printer. That is an huge advantage.

Out of office

WorkMe timeVacation Out of the office Out of the office does not mean nothing to do. I got myself a Cameo 4 Pro for my Birthday this May and guess what I have not used it once. I want to use my time off to find out how to use it and maybe complete one or two projects on it so I get some experience. I know that it will be a great tool to use for my Mugs and T-Shirts or clothing in general working with Vinyl or to make stickers or decals for wall and windows. It’s just the thing that you need the time to teach yourself. Mind you having said that I also want to go to town and walk around the shops and have a good time on the beach or the coast here in general… So I think for actually only having a week off it is enough to do.   As some of you know I do create T-shirts and Mugs myself and print them using a sublimation ink printer and heat press myself. I made a new T-Shirt design the other day and really get so excited to use Vinyl in the future. My T-Shirt and Mug designs are currently sold in two of my shops in MWP-Design and at PrideMug I also do a lot of custom made stuff, so people send me their images like pictures or drawings or text and that is getting printed on a Hoody, T-Shirt, mug, Slate Stone and so on. I really like doing this a lot.
