Great STUFF !

LOVING the new site!! I was so excited when I saw my e-mail this morning. My week has started off great...saw lots of Halloween items at the stores yesterday, bought a hilarious/gross Halloween card, and yes...I bought my first kin. It had such a nice carvable face that I couldn't resist buying him. Then the new site today!! I think I'll buy a lotto ticket this week. AWESOME job Ryan...as usual!!

Sweet! I really like the colors, very easy on the eyes. Main page is awesome and the sayings across the bottoms of the pattern pages are great! I can't wait till payday so I can buy me a "Night of the Zombie Pumpkins" T-shirt! Happy Halloween Season to everyone, and thank you Ryan, I'm looking forward to another great batch of Zombie Pumpkins :twisted:

That was my plan... for anyone that had a "case of the Mondays" last week, I hope the glow of the new site brightened your day for just a moment.

I've been looking at this layout for so long, it doesn't look as new to me. But I'm glad everyone noticed the little details, like the pumpkin "o", the wiggly-worm menu, the light-up mascot, the "dig in" tombstone, the random horror movie taglines at the bottom, etc.

That's what I was hoping for. More cool blues and greens this year, to give the feeling of night. With a punch of glowing orange in the night, naturally.

Thanks, I think they do look rather fancy myself. :D

Part of the inspiration for this year's theme was certainly that movie. In fact, Night of the Living Dead celebrates it's 40th anniversary this year. Gotta pay respects to the zombie movie that kicked off the popularity of the modern undead.

The tagline you see on the shirts and fliers is a take on the classic quote from the beginning scene of that movie, "They're coming to get you, Barbara." But with pumpkin ghouls, it's more like "They're coming to GUT you, Barbara!"

Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks for all the kind words about the launch of the new site. I'm pleased with it (although, already plotting improvements for 2009) and I'm happy to say that the new code fell into place with almost no technical errors. Let's hope its a sign of things to come. Smooth sailing until November!

All the pre-engraved handles I have are part of a whole set. But if you could find someone that wants to buy just the brass end and blades, we may have a deal. :wink:

Maybe I can trick some poor chump, who doesn't know the first thing about carving :)

all this talk of carving set handles with the ZP logo on is pee'ing me off. I think Ryan must have sold me the very last set of old stock! :roll: :lol:

Go on rub it in!

I bought a couple more of the coloured lights from the ZP store and I have to admit the ZP branded carving tool did go back and forth from my basket a fair few times but I eventually checked out without it..(i bought two last year) :lol: Daft I know but that ZP logo really makes them, hopefully they will be available next year and still branded with the logo :D
