I used cafePress untill they started to screw artists over.
I never made a profit off of any item they had to offer. B/c in order to make a prifit you have to jack the price up. The prices are outrageous for someone trying to make extra money. I was bumping mine at least a $1.00 - $1.50. Persoanlly they have flaws with selection. White. UGH! I've come up with many designs that work better on something than white. I do sublimation at my job and white is pretty much the only thing you can use.
They made a change to the agreement terms back in august or so pretty much stating: you make the art, we own the art. I read that, gave my shop two days before it went into effect, then killed it.
If you are someone who wants to try to make a few extra dollars and have better traffic through your site than me, then I recomend it. If you are an artist who cares about your art and who handles it, then make it yourself.
how much did i make? not a penny.
I even had one for my band. We made more from gig sales from shirts we hand made.
Mo-Holler.
