I love your show! Your episode with database maintainance ideas brought back to my mind the question that I have not managed to resolve yet. I have several websites with post types and each one has a post thumbnail in a different size.
However I am not aware of specifing the image size when the user is uploading images on this post type only so I am forced to crop the image in several sizes that I know I am never going to need. Do you know a way to specify the image size on a custom post type level in order to avoid creating image sizes that I am not going to use?
How do you approach this issue? I think that many of the people from your audience will benefit from such info.

I noticed that in a podcast you recommend meeting burner, but it seems you are using go to meeting for your upcoming webinar. I am looking for the best way to host a webinar from my website. Which of these do you recommend? Currently I have been doing screencast recordings and just posting those, but I want to jump to the live audience, and a webinar would be the next logical step.

Woo is a South African Company. However their employees are distributed all over the world. And show up at many of the local WordCamps – I just met a bunch of them in Atlanta (which was an awesome event). I didn’t have an issue paying for my WooCommerce extension – but I just wish that they would accept American Express as this is my business’s CC or even just PayPal.
Mar 20, 2013@webdesignSC Hmm, I didn’t know it was South African. Hopefully some of them show up at the WordCamp events I plan on attending!
Mar 20, 2013After listening to the podcast I went to the woo site and found WooSidebars. It is a great plugin as well.
Apr 1, 2013@stefangr I like WooSidebars too!
Apr 1, 2013How do you handle WooCommerce with your clients? Do you have them buy the necessary extensions, buy a single-site license yourself and bill them, or buy the multi-site or unlimited license and bill them for part of it?
Apr 19, 2013DanielJLewis I normally purchase the license and then invoice the client. I don’t think that Woo has a developer bundle for unlimited licenses.
Apr 19, 2013dhartzler10 Each extension has a single-site, 5-site, and unlimited-site license at varying prices. Usually the 5-site is double the single, and the unlimited is triple the single.
Apr 19, 2013DanielJLewis I had no idea. I guess I always get the single-site license. I normally just purchase a new license for each client anyways.
Apr 19, 2013dhartzler10 I’m considering purchasing unlimited or even 5-site licenses for the extensions I like and may reuse myself or potentially with other clients.
