Yep, I added them 👻

Ive been working on an article titled " The Ocean Still Has Stories To Tell" SLOWLY.. time is tight these days but eventually ill get it posted. But while working on it the other day a Storyteller came to mind.. and inspired a new design for some t-shirts, now in the shop. 🤪 Got test prints today to check it and they came out great.

Following up on the Marketplace announcement, here are some of the main features members will be able to use. Marketplace gives members a proper place to buy, sell, trade, and look for items without everything getting buried in forum topics. Member features include: - Create your own marketplace listings - Add multiple items to a single listing - Upload multiple photos for each listing - Choose the main/default photo for the listing - Set a price, or mark an item as free or negotiable - Post For Sale, Wanted, Trade, and mixed listing types - Add item condition, location, and detailed descriptions - Browse listings by category - Search and filter marketplace listings - Save listings to come back to later - Contact the seller directly - Comment on listings, where enabled - Follow listings for updates - Mark your own items as sold / closed - Relist expired listings - Manage your active, sold, and expired listings from your own listing area - View seller profiles and other listings from the same seller - Leave buyer/seller reviews and feedback after a transaction - Build a visible reputation through marketplace feedback - Edit History captured (every edit to original listing captured and visible publicly The goal is to make buying, selling, and trading easier for members, while keeping listings organized and easy to find. Marketplace is still being improved, so member feedback will help shape what gets added next.

Please post, ideas, suggestions and bugs if you find any here. So I can keep track of things in one place.

The new Waterpixels Marketplace is now running, and we’d like everyone to start using it for buy/sell/trade posts. For now, the existing Classifieds forum will stay open while we finish testing the posting rules and make sure the Marketplace works the way it should for new members, post-count limits, and normal member access. Once that testing is done, we’ll restrict new posting in Classifieds and move future listings to the Marketplace. Please use the Marketplace for new listings whenever possible, and let us know if anything feels confusing or does not work right. A few things to check while using it: - Creating a listing - Uploading photos - Choosing the default listing photo - Posting into the right category or categories - Marking an item as sold or closed - Browsing and filtering listings - Saving listings to favorites If you run into a bug, please post what happened and, if possible, include the browser/device you were using. Screenshots help too. The goal is to make the Marketplace easier to browse and manage than the old Classifieds forum, while keeping the same community rules and protections in place. Timeline: - Marketplace is live now - Classifieds will remain open briefly while we finish testing - After testing, new Classifieds posting will be restricted - Existing Classifieds content will remain available for reference You can find the Marketplace in the main navigation or in the below link. Marketplace Please give it a try and post feedback. This is ready enough to start using, and we’ll keep tuning it based on what people find.

Welcome to Waterpixels Joe, glad your here and hope you enjoy the community.

Ok, The Marketplace is currently in active testing, and we’re working through the final details to make sure it is useful, safe, and easy to use before opening it up to everyone. Hang in there — it’s coming. Planned features included for the first Release: Create listings for gear you want to sell, trade, give away, or find Support for multiple listing types: - For Sale - Want to Buy - Trade - Free / Giveaway Multi-item listings, so one post can include several individual items Individual item sold tracking for multi-item listings Ability to relist individual sold items if they become available again Listing images with a clean gallery view Categories for common underwater gear: - Housings - Strobes & video lights - Ports & extensions - Trays, arms & clamps - Accessories and other gear Price, currency, condition, and location fields Seller profile integration Buyer/seller feedback support Sold and closed listing states Messaging/contact tools for interested buyers Moderation tools to help keep listings organized and trustworthy Listing history so important changes can be tracked Mobile-friendly layout for browsing on phones and tablets We are also testing the design with sample listings so we can tune the layout, image sizes, category filters, sold states, and listing detail pages before real members start posting. This is not live for general use yet, We want the Marketplace to feel like a natural part of WaterPixels, not just a bolted-on classifieds section or old forum style we are use to.. Thanks for your patience while we test everything. More updates soon.

I got a Marketplace section coming soon Ive been working on, Should be much better to manage for you guys. We will start testing it and make live soon. I'll get some screen shots up later.
