Can anyone direct me here. I am looking to create a web site similar to this site. Is it possible to create it in Site spinner without knowing too much code?

If anyone has any idea how this concept can be created get back to me asap. The important feature is the ordering of the soap, where it shows you what the soap will look like once the letters and font have been selected.
I need to be able to select color of soap, type of font, and then select the letters to be engraved. Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Sure it's possible, but not right out of the box.

You will need a good image editing program to create your graphics if you do not already have any.

You will also need to either sign up with a shopping cart system (your host may provide one) or use PayPal.

SiteSpinner can handle the forms for your various selections, but if you are not familiar with using forms, you may want to use a 3rd party tool like WebFormDesigner and then incorporate it's generated code onto your SS page.

If you want to provide some sort of visual feedback to your visitors based on their selections, then that will probably require some coding to be on your server.

Thanks Larryd.
We have a shopping cart and I use Photoshop for editing graphics. My concern is more for visual feedback to the customer. Adding the visual text. I can see that its possible but not sure if it is beyond my capabilities.

Yes, Adaptor, I couldn't agree more ... the help I've received has been fantastic ... and in particular I will mention Larryd, Bruceee and Klimt. Their help has been incredible ... particularly Larryd who has gone much further than I would ever have imagined. I hope he's now on the VM payroll!! :-)

Like you, I would have really struggled without the help I've received on here ... so if I can now do a little to help an individual (plus readers of the posts) then I will do so ... and I hope that many other SS users will do likewise. As a community it's fantastic ... and about the best help board I've ever used.

Sharing our info and helping out can promote all our sites/businesses as well as 'pay back' for the help we've received ... and there's plenty of room in this world for even more competition for all websites.

Everything has been said.
I can't find a better way to express the same concept.
Thanks.
