Is there anyway members can sell like sigs and wallpaper and stuff like that in the new trade center ?
-
No, not at the moment.
They can only sell items which you have in your shop.
-
Wil this be apart of future releases or its just not possible ?

I'd love for Users to create sigs and sell them to people, I'm also wanting to sell the actual privilage of having a sig too. I'm still looking for a way to sell things like BBcode to users, although I spent yesterday beating the display.template.php file into letting me sell icons which appear in the user info section of posts.
I'd love to know if anyone has already done anything like this, especially the BBCode one ;)

I think you can change one of the test items into something to sell, I`m just not sure how to do it.

You need to know PHP to be able to make your own items. If you do understand PHP, you can use the current items (including the test items) for reference. The test items are largely commented, so if you know basic PHP, you'll understand it.

Only problem I see with selling sigs, is that people might try to steal it. You would to somehow restrict the ability to right-click and save. On top of that the image would need to be reduced in size or stamped with something so people can't use it right away.
And I mean reduced in size, as in that even if you right-click and save the image will still be that small. I've seen some sites that have reduced images, but if you right-click and save, you will get the full size version. I think it was some html that reduced the image size, but still had your browser upload the full image size.
Just make sure that there are alot of security features added so people can't steal the images, either through right-click, print screen or by it being cached in thier browser. Those methods I listed should keep that from happening.

Where do I find the code for the test items ?

The code for the test items is in Sources/shop/items/testitem.php and Sources/shop/items/testitem2.php. It's best to look at all the items to see how they work, the test items are highly commented so they'll help you there.

Ok i`ll take alook at that as soon as I get time, thank you.
