Making dreams come true

To make dreams come true you need two things: focus and time. Without focus a project takes way too much time, and without time...

Anyway, I had a dream that I wanted to come true. With some spare time in the weekend and in the lunch breaks ---which are 2½ hours here--- the second factor was available. I struggled a little bit more with the first factor, since I tend to jump from database design to logo design to testing out e-mail automation. But I managed to stick to my plan:

  1. Create a new domain;
  2. Install WHM;
  3. Move my current sites from TotalChoice Hosting to WHM;
  4. Define my hosting packages;
  5. Install phpCOIN;
  6. Create a PayPal merchant account;
  7. Install IPN module and test Paypal;
  8. Define products and prices;
  9. Test the order and invoice processes;
  10. Test helpdesk e-mail processing;
  11. Write Terms of Service and Acceptable Use Policy;
  12. Twiggle with hundreds of parameters;
  13. Design a nice logo;
  14. Create a new stylesheet
  15. Add some more information about the server and the hosting plans;
  16. Add hosted by buttons to my current sites;
  17. Make some publicity;
  18. ...profit!!!

Everything is fully operational, but it has a horrible design. I hope to fix all that this week, take my summer holidays and open the site on August 1st.
