Hi everyone, I recently launched my online store at www.onfrontstreet.com. I'm using Drupal 6 with Ubercart and used Acquia Prosper as my base theme. Check it out and let me know what you think!

We recently design and developed our t-shirt line called The-Rec and that is what we are selling on there now. We have other projects in the works, but the site is quite basic for now, until we can expand upon it.

I've worked with other e-commerce packages such as osCommerce, Magento, ShopSite, and I just wanna say Ubercart is my favorite one of them all. It integrates nicely with your Drupal site to create a seamless experience between the blog, the store, and other site functions.

I like the site, expecially the front page. The contents are balanced well and all the possible info a customer needs are clearly traceable.
I've a question: how did you do your slideshow? It integrates very well in the rest of the page and seems to be made ad-hoc.

Thanks for your feedback!

I used the views slideshow module to do the front page. I created a nodetype called "Slider Image" with a Link URL cck field. In views I would have the picture link to the URL i specify in the node instead of actually linking it to the Node itself. This will allow me to enter in different types of images and specify exactly where on the site it goes. I just leave "Slider Image" nodes published but not posting to the front page.

That's a great site, man. I have a question for you: are you tracking inventory levels for the shirts by size? If so, how are you doing it? I'm working on an online store for a client, and I can't quite pull off what I need.

Thanks!

Thanks for checking that out! Greatly appreciated.

Yes I am tracking inventory for my shirts by size. Do you have the stock and attribute modules enabled? Once you do head over to edit your product. Activate each option for your attributes in the Options tab. Once you have activated each option, head over to the Adjustments tab in the product edit to assign a unique SKU for each option.

I was stuck on this portion as well. You just have to remember to create the unique values for each option you have available before it can start tracking each attribute combination individually.

Hope that helps!

Hi, I am PHP developer. I liked your site design very much and because you are profesional I want to ask you, is it possible to create t-shirt store, but with possiblity for user to create design of shirt. What do you think about this, can I use Ubercart, or Magento will be better?

File upload at purchase time is no built into UC but obviously can be done. Maybe checkout the Node Checkout module http://drupal.org/project/uc_node_checkout
