Cafepress announced that it is going to start offering yard signs:

scheduled to launch on October 10th, but if you want to get started on designs the following specs may be helpful:* Image size: 21″ x 14″ (150 – 300 dpi, 200 recommended)
  * Double Sided: submit a single image it will be printed on both sides of the sign
  * Product size: 22″ x 15″
  * Frame: ships with collapsible U frame stand that measures 21″ x 33″
  * Base price: $14.99
  * Material: Printed on flexible 10 oz outdoor sign vinyl
  * Features:
  o Weather resistant for up to 2 years
  o Heat Sealed Edges
  o Double sided

Of course they can be used for a lot of other things too, but mostly they are going to be political in nature. The only drawback I see is that price tag. Base price $14.99? That’s a hefty price especially when political candidates and organizations give out signs for free. So if you want someone to plunk down $14.99 + commission for a yard sign that design better be the best design ever.

They also announced larger, 3.5″ buttons and that the paper in there perfect bound books will now be on white, instead of cream, paper.
