I ordered a tee shirt from Cafe Press, never having done so before, and I was most disappointed. The image of my cats on it looked like the shirt had been washed a bunch of times, fading the colors somewhat. Simon's orange color looked more yellowish and was the most faded looking. The black cats looked fully black, though. Not what one expects in a brand new shirt that wasn't cheap either.

So, I took off all the clothing items from my Cafe Press shop (

).

The magnets, mug and tiles however, come out GREAT! I was thrilled with them. Nice bright sharp colors. They do look in person like they do on the computer screen on my Cafe Press site, unlike the tee shirts. The hotplate tile of Minerva cooking is really splendid in real life!




So don't hesitate to buy those types of items from any Cafe Press shop. Just don't waste your money on the tee shirts.

Oh, the trucker's hat, with the mesh back comes out good. The baseball cap won't though, as it is cotton.

Thanks for the heads up on the tee-shirts and cotton hats. I haven't ordered anything yet from them, but I have been looking and thinking about it.

It really is a disappointment. Not only does that reduce items worth selling, but I wanted to get more shirt items with my cats on them.

The other items come out great, though.

If you, or anyone else, want to buy something from Cafe Press, here is a coupon code for $5 off an order of $35 or more: SRV112
It expires April 5, 2006.
