Etsy Listing Tips & Tutorials
Below are links to the posts on my blog that match these tutorials. Mostly they focus on photography, but I'm planning on doing a step-by-step in-depth tutorial on every aspect of selling an item on etsy.
Lighting and the Evils of Flash
My own long tutorial about white balance, natural light, flash and why all three are important, either to learn about, use, or avoid like the plague.
Great White Balance Tutorial
Someone else who understands the importance of white balance gives his techniques for getting it right - every time.

I run through what to make, crafting for love vs. for profit, niche markets, and tell you where to learn how to make whatever you want.

This is exactly what it says. After I've finished writing it, it will be available as an eBook... name your own price. (In other words, free or for a donation.) Table of Contents
