so a site where you sell t shirt and very little of it goes to charity..

Unicef: a $3 donation can buy a large wool blanket to protect children from the cold during an emergency.
"very little" is subjective wouldn't you say?
- OSFA0
is that one of goodies you offered a while back?

I like the clean feel of the site, the only thing that bothers me is all the type on the front page & the about page being all bold - it makes the page busy looking and very dense comapred to the other pages.

Really well done irrelevant. There is a lot of info on the main page but it looks clean and easy to read. Some very cool functionality going on with the page too.
Really nice.
Do you pay via paypal or what? I like a couple of the shirts.

OSFA: Yes

Thanks guys..
Google is the only way to pay, but looking to integrate PayPal and other payment options if site prospers.

how is that Google checkout, do you like it better than PayPal, and when you add a item to the cart is that page that pops up done with the lightbox script?

really nice and but only two artists at the moment? you might get some love over at

On a side note, in case anyone wants full views of unfolded shirt or modeled pictues, they will be integrated into the site using Flickr so you will be able to comment and RSS feeds. :)
Props goes to Darren Ansley at http://www.besupercharged.com for CSS mastery of the site.

Yes only 2 artists at the moment, not including me, but I don't put myself at their level of design.
I have already received several emails regarding other artists that would like to donate a design. So more shirt designs on the way. This thing was completely bootstrapped, so I could not print a ton of designs...

i dont think its a problem, both brooke and si scott produce fantastic work. id love to see more contrast on the si scott stuff tho, the detail is amazing and its a little lost on grey

good stuff irrelevent any money to charity is a good thing.
I don't like your site though :( it just leaves me feeling dry.
Bear in mind though I have next to no taste and pretty much everything I do looks like a 'slow' child has been let loose on a type and touch.

i dunno chossy, i think yr chosscasting skills are above and beyond

radar: Yes I like Google checkout considering there are no transaction fees until 2008.
The pop up box is a shadowbox of sort using a yahoo js library.. or at least that's how it was explained to me.

wouldnt it be better just to minimize cost by donated products / time / design to get more money to charity?
the question is, is this another designer-tshirt-cloth site but only difference is that you get to donate 1-3 dollars ?
not to rag on you but i always question a business that is based on charity drive and does not really give as much as it can.
- OSFA0
i agree on the si scott piece. it gets lost, and I would love to buy one on blck.
- JSK0
as for design,
i think its lack of selection
also it tells me more retail than actual charity based
also if you are socially award, are these shirts made in sweatshops? are they environmentally friendly?
