custom tshirts

I was thinking long an hard about starting a website that sold, custom designed t-shirts??

also i wanted to have it so that u could upload your image, and it could be placed onto a t-shirt.

some VERY basic, first phase ideas are in the following link:

It would be nice, but I'm not sure how you could compete with cafepress.com as they are probably the leading company in that sort of thing.

ummm and do you ahve permission from the copyright holder in those pictures to use them for comercial purposes?

I know that the copyright no longer applies if an image/picture/etc has been altered by a certain amount but this is kinda grey area. So i would be carefull about using some of the images that are obviously copyrighted material (such as teh scar face pic)

Also have you thought about production costs vs quality?
Your gonna need some good quality equipment to produce high quality shirts...then you have material costs (t-shirts, inks, electricity) No good if you ahve amazing looking shirts but need to charge £30 each for them

I would suggest going along the lines of using the like sof cafe press of www.spice.co.uk to sell your designs first as they take all the hassle out of it for you (production/orders/delivery/etc)

see how your designs fare on the market - are they well recieved...do they sell? then if you think it is a profitable venture try setting up your own site to sell them.
