Hi all,

I hope you are all well!

Some of you will know my name, others will not. Some of you will know that I am a website developer by trade, most of you will not!

Unfortunately due to being so busy for the last 6 months with work and personal projects, I have negelected my own site(s). I have therefore decided to dedicate a bit of time to getting gwsmagic.com into shape (theres nothing there right now).

On this website I will have a page about me for anyone that is interested, as well as information on my current range of products, plus new ideas I have.

PLEASE READ ON!

I am also thinking of offering free effects to those that sign up, via a newsletter or on the website itself. I have been working on a book of efects for magicians on and off for a while now. The problem is, there is so much 'stuff' coming out in the magic worls and its imposiible to pleas everyone.

So I thought that I may simply offer the complete write up of one effect, lets say every month. This isn't a scam or anything, I would like my ideas to be made available without cashing in on them.

Do you guys think this would be a good idea?

Of couse I will use the website to inform visitors about my current range and will give registered users the chance to comment on possible new releases, probably offer pre release freebies too.

I will also add a forum for each of my products to discuss new handlings etc with fellow users. I will also upload videos of new ideas for free download.

Basically I would love to know if you guys would be interested in anything like this? If so I will start building, otherwise I will keep the website as purely 'here are my products and here's where you can buy them'.

Let me know your thoughts!

Many Thanks

I think you'll find many will be interested in free effects. In fact, releasing a few effects may be a great way to promote any book you would want to release in the future. You can definitely count me in. Good Luck.

Thanks for the reply.

To be honest I'm not sure I will be putting any more books out, who knows.

Just seems a waste for these effects to go unused!

Gary

Anyone else?

No offence Caleb, but I wont be doing all this work just for you

Perhaps I will leave it for now!

I just PM's Gary as I was unable to get on to his website. I am new to the Café and was surprised that no one else replied. I certainly would have an interest.
