I have said this hundreds of times.. “it’s NOT the idea as much as how you APPLY it. The best ideas in the world are wasted because whoever had them simply didn’t know how to apply them well. Typically there are thinkers and doers, it is very rare to be able to do both. So next time you have that big idea find someone to help you apply it, or if you are frustrating that people do not work hard enough with all these great ideas floating around then you should find some idea people and make it happen!

If you want to sell toilet paper then you could start a toilet paper business right now online and if you truly kicked butt at it you could make a living. My point is it’s not what you sell as much as you believing that it will work, work hard, and work very smart to make it happen.

Here is 100 ideas that have proven to work and can make any person a  living if applied right.

We wanted to put a image over everything on a web page, so we searched and searched the web until we finally found this simple little code:

<div>
<img src=”images/graphics/happy-women.png” alt=”" style=”position:absolute;” />
<div style=”position:absolute;width:Xpx;height:Ypx;background-color:#000000;filter:alpha(opacity=0);opacity:0;-moz-opacity:0;”></div>
</div>

It’s great, just throw this about anywhere in the body of the web page and it will create a layer over place for your image. Now just use a transparent image like the one we used here and play around with placement and image size to make it fit correctly.

Here’s the code again in case the image is blocking you from grabbing it:

<img src=”/images/graphics/happy-women.png” alt=”” style=”position:absolute;” />
<div style=”position:absolute;width:Xpx;height:Ypx;background-color:#000000;filter:alpha(opacity=0);opacity:0;-moz-opacity:0;”>

As you know WordPress has gone from a simple blogging script to a fully functional website builder. More and more people and businesses are using wordpress for all of their website needs.

Today I wanted to find the best shopping cart options for WordPress. These are plugins that turn your wordpress website into a fully functional shopping cart.

http://www.phpurchase.com/ Claims to the best shopping cart plugin for wordpress and their latest version can used as a stand alone shopping cart.

http://quirm.net/ Is a free solution that works well with Paypal.

http://getshopped.org/ Is free as well but most of the upgrades cost money. The nice part is you only pay for the options you want.

These are three best that we have found, if you know of anymore please post in the comments.

Also customer solutions are available all over the web for about $20. Just do a Google search for “custom wordpress shopping cart”

* Adding your own hosted .flv videos to WordPress
* How to embed videos from video sites such as YouTube

Start adding videos to your WordPress sites today and read on…

Playing hosted flash videos

If you can create your own .flv videos, and would rather not host them on a third-party site, there’s no better plugin than FLV Embed. With this plugin you can add your video to a post or page with a quick tag. First you need to get the plugin from WordPress.org at install it through OneClick or manually.

Once installed and activated, you’ll be able to configure the settings of the FLV player when it’s displayed on your blog.

In addition to setting options such as colors, you can also have your own logo embedded, have “Full Screen Mode” enabled, set the default volume, among other features you’d expect to see from a fully featured video plugin.

To display a video in a page or a post, you’d use a quick tag similar to the following:

The first option, currently your-video.flv, is obviously the name of the video in the path you set on the options page. You can also set it as a full URL. The optional-portrait.jpg is optional, and is what will show up as a “preview” before the video is played. The 2 numbers are width and height, respectively.

Embedding videos from other sites

Several popular video sites such as YouTube, Google Video, MetaCafe, IFILM, and others offer “embedding” code that will allow you to place a hosted video up for display on your own site, without sacrificing your own bandwidth resources. For WordPress, there is an easy plugin that you can use to embed videos in a similar “quick tag” format as above. It’s called Viper’s Video Quicktags.

Currently this plugin supports the following video sites:

* YouTube
* Google Video
* IFILM
* MetaCafe
* MySpace

These among other hosted video formats as well. You can get the plugin at WordPress.org. Once activated, you’ll see the options for the video sites on your post menu, which will prompt you for the video URL. It will generate the code in quick tag format to be displayed in your post.

As you can see, it’s a very simple format. All you need is the YouTube video URL. It’s a similar format for the other supported video sites as well.

Conclusion

If you post videos frequently on your blog I’d highly recommend these plugins, especially Viper’s for the quick tag post integration for all those video sites.
