A Website Facelift!

Hi Pen Fans!

If you are viewing this blog post on our website, then you’ll be seeing our new look!

If you are not on our site currently, feel free to head on over to www.edisonpen.com and  have a look!

I am very happy with the new appearance, but there’s still some minor formatting issues to take care of, which we’ll be working on over the next few days.  If you see any issues with the website, feel free to let us know, but we should be ironing out all of these small details in the next few days.

As a side note, the 2014 LE Glenmonts are coming together nicely!  I apologize for not having a more recent update, but during the time that we transitioned over to this new appearance, I couldn’t post anything or risk losing the content.  So expect to see a 2014 LE Glenmont update early this week!

Let me know what you think of the new look and have a great day!

Useful Videos and a Big SmugMug Update!

Hi Pen Fans!

Highlights from the video…

1.  I have added a new tab on the lower left side of the website called Useful Videos.  I hope that you find them as the title states!

2.  In the last 3-4 months, I’ve fallen behind on keeping the Smugmug Galleries updated with Signature Line Pens.  I just completed a large update, so if you want to see plenty of new Signature Line pens of all styles, feel free to visit the Galleries!

Thanks!

Smugmug Problem, and a Few Quick Updates…

Hi Pen Fans….

Highlights from the video above.

1.  Smugmug searches are only working from the Home Page or Galleries Page.  Due to an indexing problem, we are not able to search within individual galleries right now.

The solution for now….when trying to search within a specific gallery, search from the Home or Galleries page only, but place the name of the Gallery in the search window along with the term that you are searching for.

For example, if you want to find Pearlettes in Ebonite that are currently ready to ship, you will type "Current Pearlette Ebonite" in the search window of the Home Page or Gallery Page.  This will show you Pearlettes in Ebonite that are in Current Inventory. 

If you want to find Blue Glenmonts, type in "Blue Glenmont" from the Main Page or Galleries Page.

You can’t do this from the respective individual galleries for now, so work from the Home or Gallery Page.

This issue will hopefully be fixed soon.

2.  New Stealth LE will hopefully be announced next week.

3.  New Production Pen in the next 2-3 weeks barring something unforeseen.

Thanks!

Email Change….

Hi Pen Fans.

Just a quick note about an email change that will be happening over time.

Some of you might have been getting emails from me at this address….. 

bgray005@neo.rr.com

I’m going to make a transition away from this email address, and start using the following email address for all Edison related matters…

brian@edisonpen.com

So from now on, please do not use the neo.rr.com address.  Only use brian@edisonpen.com.

The neo.rr.com address will work for about three more months.  I will not completely abandon this address quite yet.  But around summertime, I’m going to discontinue this address, so please get rid of the neo.rr.com address and start using the edisonpen.com address.

Thanks!

Email Problems…

Hi Everyone.

Just a quick note regarding my email accounts. 

There have been some problems lately which I think have been fixed.

Bottom line….if you are expecting an email from me, and it’s not received by around noon EDT today, Monday, then reach out to me.

I’m usually very fast with emails.  With the exception of weekends, emails are almost always returned within 12 hours, usually much faster.

So if you’re expecting an email from me and it hasn’t beeen returned today, try again…it might have not been received somehow.

And calling live is always OK, as well.  567.401.2043
