Finally! A way for shoppers to share their Spotted items and Favorite stores. Check out your own HC Pack page: go to your My HC page (for shopping), and look for the Pack Page link in the left hand menu. You’ll be able to set whether your Spots and Fave stores are public or private (default is private).
So set yer pages up and then post the links here (or on this forum thread). Let’s finally see each others favorite items and stores
Here are mine, although I need to do a lot more window shopping to really do justice to the amazing things on HC!

In the coming weeks, pack pages will get more integrated into the forums and other parts of the site (for example, auction bidders and drawing entrants will be hotlinked to pack pages). Note that your privacy is very important at HC, so defaults are all set to private. I’d love to see everyone share though!
In other news, as sellers, you now have a widget you can use to showcase your HC items on blogs, websites, etc. Go to your vendor pages under Promote >> HC Widget to see what I mean. You will get a code to embed all over the ‘net 🙂
Let me know your feedback on both the pack pages and widgets.
Thanks, as always, for hosting your stores on HC! And Happy New Year too 🙂
I have yet to look at any of this but off the top of my head I think the widgets are a great way to bring lots of traffic to Hyena Cart!
How do I get the picture I want on the widget? It just seems to choose one.
Hi Margie — the widget randomly chooses thumbnails from your listings. They’ll be different every time the page is refreshed.
I finally took time to check this out, and it was SO worth it! What a fantastic idea – thanks Karen!
