Shopify Image Library

Shopify Free Images, Free Stock Photos

Where is the Shopify image library? A lot of people seem to ask that question. When I opened a Shopify store, I remember seeing a link somewhere saying Shopify Free Images. When I went to look for it, I couldn’t find it anywhere. I searched online and had a hard time finding it that way as well.

Finally I found a site where the smug person said: “Shopify doesn’t have an image library…”, he was kind of right, Shopify has an image website, called Burst, it’s not really a separate site, it’s a subdomain.

Shopify Image Library, burst.shopify.com
Free Stock Photos

There’s a link at the very bottom of the Shopify homepage that says Free Stock Photos and that goes to the subdomain https://burst.shopify.com

They also have a section on Burst in the bottom nav with the heading Business Starter Kits, which has articles on ideas for online businesses…which makes sense for them to do.

The very first link under Business Starter Kits is Business Ideas. This is a list of the first 6 ideas:

  • Sell Women’s Fashion Online
  • Sell Art Supplies Online
  • Sell Makeup & Cosmetics Online
  • Sell Camping Equipment Online
  • Sell Socks Online (I guess there’s a market for everything)
  • Sell Kitchen Supplies Online

But I digress…

Low-Res Pug From Burst

There are a ton of images and backgrounds and all free. You don’t even need to sign up. When you go there, click on an image, you can download hi-res or low-res, there will be a pop-up that asks for your email address, but that is unnecessary for you to do, just click outside of the pop-up and it’ll go away. The download dialogue box will pop-up and you save it to your computer.

Even the low res-images are good, like the picture of the Pug above. It’s much bigger and I compressed it even more. The original was 925 x 617 and 65.6 kb, I knocked it down to 555 x 392 and 26.7 kb. I then resized it more for this post, but that was done in WordPress and doesn’t change the weight of the image.

Good luck if you start a store, there are other platforms besides Shopify that you may want to try out. Shopify came out at the right time and their marketing was/is good. Their verification process is out of date and needs to be overhauled though.

A brief example of why I think that: Normally to prove that you are the owner of the store, a platform will text a code, email a code or you’ll have to use an app like Google Authenticator…not Shopify, you have to log into your store and get the code from there.

That sounds easy enough right? It is, that is, unless you can’t log in, which was my case. Shopify has a lot of bugs that I found while in this situation, but we’ll stick to the main bug.

Several things happened that made their system prevent ANYONE from logging in. I waited for someone on their chat support, BECAUSE THEY QUIT PHONE SUPPORT, I clearly said to the person, “I can’t log in”. What was their response? “You have to log into your store and get the pin so we can make sure it’s you”.

The whole story goes deeper and lasted about a month…maybe I’ll do a post about the whole mess. There were a couple times where I couldn’t help think about the episode of South Park where they had the Smug Alert…

If you open a store on Shopify, MAKE SURE, if you’re going to pay and keep the store, you pay BEFORE the free trial ends, because that’s where the trouble started for me, they haven’t seemed to figure that part out completely. Normally, if that happens with ANY OTHER SITE, you pay and everything goes back to the way it was…not with Shopify. Just think everything through, pay before the free trial ends and hopefully you won’t discover any new bugs.

Peace, Love & Blessings To All!

wp-content/endurance-page-cache/_index.html

All you have to do is rename the file “endurance-cache-plugin.php.old” or whatever you want.

How To Disable wp-content/endurance-page-cache/_index.html In Hostgator And Probably Other Hosting Companies

How many of you have wp-content/endurance-page-cache/_index.html show up on your WordPress blog or site? I started happening on this site a couple months ago, I said to myself, What The Fuck is that? I did a little research and found one site that said to disable it in the WordPress admin area in Settings >>General>>at the bottom. I did that and it did nothing.

Endurance-Page-Cache

I researched it a bit more and it seems that a lot of hosting companies add a plugin called “endurance-cache-plugin”. I read on another blog that said it’s in the plugins folder and that you had to rename it and add a blank file…huh? That’s not quite true though. It is in a folder called mu-plugins.

Inside that folder is a file called “endurance-cache-plugin.php” I called Hostgator Tech Support and they new what the problem was right away because a lot of people must be calling about it. All you have to do is rename the file “endurance-cache-plugin.php.old” or whatever you want.

Endurance-Page-Cache.php.old

Then you’ll notice above the “mu-plugins” folder there’s a folder named “endurance-page-cache”, inside there is an html file name “_index.html” I also renamed that to “_index.html.old”

I tried 301 Redirecting wp-content/endurance-page-cache/_index.html

I attempted to 301 redirect them that, but that didn’t do anything except screw my site up. If you don’t know how to 301 redirect a url, if you’re not familiar with that term or not familiar with .htaccess files, I strongly advise you to not mess around with it. I know how to do those things and it prevented my site from loading. I must have done it incorrectly.

At the same time, I have to say, don’t be afraid to do things like this, because that’s how you learn. Just be smart about it and back things up…or just call tech support to be sure. If you’re going to mess around with your .htaccess file, make sure you download a copy, save it as a back up, then use a copy of that to work on. Then research what you want to do. Do it, upload it and check your site. If it gets screwed up, then just upload the back up file.

At first I started thinking someone was screwing my site because of my last post about Joe Biden saying “Nigger” in a speech he gave. With all the censorship going on the the media cover-up of the president-reject, the commander in thief and his obvious dementia, I thought, somebody was upset with my Love of the 1st Amendment…The man is in serious cognitive decline.

Think And Grow Rich Audio Book

The emotions of FAITH, LOVE, and SEX are the most powerful of all the major positive emotions. When the three are blended, they have the effect of “coloring” the vibration of thought in such a way that it instantly reaches the subconscious mind, where it is changed into its spiritual equivalent, the only form that induces a response from Infinite Intelligence.
Love and faith are psychic; related to the spiritual side of man. Sex is purely biological, and related only to the physical. The mixing, or blending, of these three emotions has the effect of opening a direct line of communication between the finite, thinking mind of man, and Infinite Intelligence.
