On 2009-12-02 16:11, woofmutt had the nerve to ask:
Dear Liloti,
I was thinkin of becomin' a big hot shot t-shirt slinger like yerself...Any advice?
woofmutt

Yes woofie....DON'T!
These people on here are waaaay too picky
when it comes down to "put up or shut up"
They will encourage you and practically promise to buy anything you put out...
But when it comes to actually making the sale...
fizzle would be the word to describe it....
i think my first mistake was putting them on white XL's
because it does make the more "prosperous" of us
look as big as we really are...
and i don't like that
and imagine others feel the same way..
That's why we drink so much....
it's so we don't notice!

My second mistake was actually listening to all these clowns....
They'd make a good group of politicians! :)

My advice would be to get into the t-shirt design aspect of it
That way you can design shirts on somebody else's dime
and not have to worry about sales or anything!
Just concept and doodle and research and design and draw....
Much simpler and absolutely NO CUSTOMER SERVICE!

If you ARE gonna sling tees
Do it at the events,especially Oasis
where all those rubes are liquored up
and will buy practically anything!

Thanks for the timely question
and......
Good Luck Sir!
