| Plentyoffish, Now with Flowers. Posted: 10/12/2006 2:54:42 PM | Today I added the ability for users to send flowers to each other onto the site in the USA and Canada.
Here is how it works.
1. You can click the send flowers link on someones profile and it takes you to growerflowers were you can pick the flowers you want to send. Once there you fill out the order and give your personalized message.
2. Once the order has been submitted, Plentyoffish AKA me automatically sends an email to the reciever telling them a user has sent them flowers. The receiver follows the link they receive and fill out their address information. Once the receiver submits their address info the flowers show up in a day or 2!.
3. At no point in time will the sender or receiver get access to each others personal information such as phone, address, name etc.
Hope you all like it, I thought this would be cooler then sending lame "virtual" gifts like other sites do. :) | |

| Plentyoffish, Now with Flowers. Posted: 10/12/2006 3:00:40 PM | | That's a neat thing right there. I'm not sure if it will work but I definitely have to give you credit for creativity. So how does one make certain that the recipient knows who sent the flowers exactly ? | |

| Plentyoffish, Now with Flowers. Posted: 10/12/2006 3:01:44 PM | | When you order the flowers there is a card you fill in. Enter your name etc in that card. Ie the personalized greeting that comes along with the flowers. | |

| Plentyoffish, Now with Flowers. Posted: 10/12/2006 3:06:54 PM | I saw that on people's profiles today, was wondering. Kinda cool huh? I think maybe you should test it out Admin, and send me some flowers.  Wonder who's the Einstein that voted to delete the owner of the sites thread????? hahahahhahahhahaha | |

| Plentyoffish, Now with Flowers. Posted: 10/12/2006 3:27:04 PM | Okay, I think this is a real awesome feature Markus, but I have a question....
What if the expected recipient does not WANT the flowers? (meaning they choose not to enter their info when asked for it) Is the sender still going to be charged for them? | |

| Plentyoffish, Now with Flowers. Posted: 10/12/2006 3:35:59 PM | | one question on one of the forms it ask you the persons name so do you put there name that is on the profile or their real name??? only asked because i order some so just wondering if the right person will get them | |

| Plentyoffish, Now with Flowers. Posted: 10/12/2006 3:37:16 PM | what?!?! who doesn't like flowers? forward 'em to me if you're getting too many ;) I was thinking in the event someone you were not interested in sent them.
OP--
Oh sure! Way to guilt us all into accepting the flowers! 
EDIT:
Can't read.....*L* Okay, very cool. Not that I am gonna get flowers, but if I did, I wouldn't want to feel guilty for not accepting them. | |

one question on one of the forms it ask you the persons name so do you put there name that is on the profile or their real name??? only asked because i order some so just wondering if the right person will get them
Where it says firstname and ID where you enter your billing info... I will get them to change firstname to POF username.
This information should be auto filled in though. | |
