I thought that I would just take some time to update everyone on how I have been reacting to Cafepress’ latest changes. Since the changes took place where they announced the 10% commission for marketplace sales, I have created 32 new designs. Of those 32, Cafepress has received five of them or 16%.
In the past Cafepress would have received 80%+ of all new designs. But oh well, you know how it goes … you screw with me and I push back. Oh, and just so the folks from Cafepress, who I know stop by and read this site, know all of those five designs you have gotten also went up on other sites as well. You folks are no longer getting exclusive designs like in the past where nearly half or more of my designs were exclusively sold through Cafepress. Have some competition pie.

Heck what can you do? I guess they had to get even more greedy eventually.
I actually have a question for you Jeff. Would you care if I reposted some of your ideas, thoughts, advice, updates, etc on my website to let some of my clients know whats going on in the shirt world? I wanted to check first before doing so.
