Hi guys just wondering how you set up your own virtual shiping company. Also how do you make them logos that you have at they end of your posts. There like advertising posts. I would be very interested in setting up my own virtual company if someone would like to help me or become a co owner i would really appreciate it.

Many Thanks Lads

Hi Chris,

It depends really, there are no 'set' rules to start a virtual shipping company. However, before you start a shipping company or clan you need to think about what you can offer that is different to all the others out there.

Do you think your shipping company will need a website or forum? There are a few people who have a free forum, and some who have paid to have their own website.

Graphics wise, there are a few programs on the internet that can make banners and images, but you can also ask some people here to design some for you. TJK does signatures, and some others will create things for you if you ask nicely

By the way, if you need help with websites or anything, please ask me and I will try and help. I do things like that as a day job so I think I should be able to point you in the right direction.

I'm sure others will post here and give their thoughts and opinions, so I'll let them post
