Threadless

Yesterday I signed up to a website called Threadless. There, artists can submit designs and, if they're approved by the website's staff, get 20% of the proceeds from the sale of items (mainly t-shirts) with their prints on them. I submitted several designs and am waiting to see if any of them get approved; should they be, each print will have 10 days during which people can vote on the print, and depending on the number of votes the design will be sold - or not. Should be interesting!

To give you an idea of the kind of prints Threadless sells, here are a few of my favorites:

Cleaning Up Town

The Milky Way

Dino Hug

Sushi

I Want My Blue Sky

It's Dangerous To Go Alone

There's a pretty wide variety of awesome designs, ranging from melancholy art to juvenile humor, with a lot of video game and tv show references thrown in (such as the "It's Dangerous To Go Alone" print, which pictures Link from the Legend of Zelda games). Have a look around the website, and I'll let you know if any of my designs get approved!

Edit: Unfortunately, all of my submissions were declined. I'll work harder!

  1. Hey, Sophs. Just for consideration, could you make it so that clicking a link opens in a new tab; I, for one, don't like being directed away from a website...

    1. Last time I checked, I had enabled that all links open in a new tab! I'll make sure to check that again. Sorry!
