Title: T shirt designs - income potential
Post by: leaf on January 26, 2009, 12:01
There are a few stores, or at least one anyhow (i am sure there are more)
http://www.spreadshirt.net/en/GB/T-Shirt/Spreadshirt-1342/

perhaps it is similar to cafe press (I haven't check that site out too much)

anyhow, you can design a t shirt, or just make a design and sell it to t shirt designers so you get paid when someone uses your design or buys a shirt you designed.  I would think it could be a potential earning avenue for graphic designers.  Unless perhaps the volume of sales is so low that it just isn't worth it.

I've used them a few times to print t-shirts for me.  Shipping was quick.  The quality on some was better than others.  They had quite a few limitations with what kind of artwork they could print, but I think they have a digital press option now, and their product line has grown quite a bit since last year at this time.

I think you can also have an unlimited number of products in your store, you can't have a free-unlimited at Cafe Press, but I believe you can at Zazzle.

A very good thing to note about Spreadshirt is that they actually reply to queries, it was almost immediate.

the sales are very slow at these places. I use zazzle,cafe,didn't do well at spread shirt. I've had one payout of $26 at zazzle. it's a patience game.

Do the earnings usually have to reach a certain level like at most microstock agencies, or can you request them at any time?
