To create a software is one thing. The challenge is to combine it with the printing technology. Our fiddly software on on side is able to fit 100% to our technology where the quality is superior to everything you find on the market at the moment. Even compared to Cafepress in the US. I agree with you that on a quick glimpse the interface of craving looks much easier. But make the test an order a shirt from them and from our services. After that you will understand why their Interface looks so much easier. Hi Ed, the prob with creativecraving is that there is no info what they put on the shirt. To create a software is one thing.

Having used others, such as creativecraving.co.uk you should look at a simpler design tool. I find your design software a bit fiddly.

There are even some products that wont let me print on them and they are white?! I have got a lot of designs that look awesome against black as they are printed in white, pastels and silvers. However i cant use them and they dont look good on white shirts. Not everyone wants to by a white shirt all the time...remember black is slimming girls :). I too hope Spreadshirt allow pixel designs on dark colours soon as i am currently forced to find somewhere that can accommodate my printing needs.

The other thing I noticed while trying to find a suitable bussines to print my merchandise is that Cafepress offers more products and they LOOK like they are better quality from the images on their website, I havent orderd anything as yet from Cafepress or Spreadshirt, these are just the impresions I get from the websites. Cafepress do not allow back prints on alot of its merchandise and you will get charged by HM Customs for importing from the US. I write this because I hope that Spreadshirt take it in and make their service that little bit better.
