Add to cart picture animation...?

[chunkyman]

Hi People,
first of all let me thank all of you who post answers in this forum. I have been a quite reader of this forum and I have learned a lot from you, thank you again.

Before I decided to go with Zen I did try other chopping carts but no other car has the support that Zen has. So I decided to go with Zen.
I managed to do just about everything I needed to but I have two questions that I failed to find the answers for.
Please remember that I am quite new to this so do not answer me with a lot of technicalities, keep it simple please :)
Firstly:
Most of the other carts has got this cute animation that when a user clicks the Add To Cart button a faded copy of the products image moves/makes its way into the cart. I think this is a very nice touch.
Is this available for Zen??

Secondly:
Seeing that I am new to this I do a backup of each file that I edit.
I like to try things out but sometimes I get files overwritten when installing addon modules.
I am after an addon for 1.5 that can make an incremental backup (I guess the easiest place would be on teh server itself) I have tried one but it failed to install properly. Probably it was a mistake I made or maybe because it was not written for 1.5!

Any help would be appriciated and thank again.

Will this feature increase sales?

Or is it just a silly trinket that you like?

Hi,

no I guess it's just a 'trinket' (as you put it). There are heaps of these 'trinkets' available for Zen, this is just another idea.

Just because a function is available does not mean it makes business sense to use it.

The rule with eCommerce sites is to keep them simple, fast, efficient and straight-forward. Rather put your efforts into marketing and getting better positions on the search engines.

No one is going to arrive at your site and express horror if they don't see dancing pictures. They have come there to buy something, not to be entertained.
