tbh, the only company I've used and haven't forgotten is Zazzle. But they kinda suck and over-charge for some stuff.

and literally all my emails that I care about go to my spam so unless I move them they're deleted in like 30 days; also been quite a long time since I ordered anything to be printed/made into stuff so I've got no boxes

From what I've heard, everyone seems to really like RedBubble. I had a few shirts and mugs from them of some art and it's excellent quality!

I've been wanting to give them a try for the longest time! They seem to have pretty good quality but a lot of the reviews I've seen have been mixed. A lot of them claim they've been really effed over by them and tons of people say they're the best place to go for custom printing. Thank you for your input!

I remember your business cards looking really good and I was tempted to get something printed by them here soon (I think Allen got his business cards printed using VP too, I'll ask him). And your shark stickers looked really good too (I haven't used them/put them on anything yet because I hoard stickers and they're too good to put on anything I have lol) but I can't remember where you got them done, office max/depot or something, right? I'm dying to get some stickers printed right now. Do you know if any place does those cool holographic ones?
I'm checking out CustomInk right now, seeing about getting some canvas bags printed to sell. :3
Thank you so much for the info!! It really helps. :D

It annoys me to no end when artists do stuff like keeping their "techniques" secret, (get over yourself) holding psds behind a paywall, (Whats the point) charge extra for NSFW (if it makes you uncomfortable dont do it in the first place), and generally treat their audiences and "lesser artists" with an upturned nose.

My mom used to tell me to not give away art "secrets" because then they'll go and do it on their own. And? Being an artist yourself doesnt mean you stop appreciating what anyone else does, not to mention that loomis, richard williams and bridgman revealed "secrets" but reading it doesnt make you perfect overnight.

i'd seen this recurring trend as well. had been through that just trying to get a massage business card printed before.

also with publishers for aspiring authors in that boat. when you find the publisher they give that "oh we're waiting to get a new editor..." kinda running trend. :P
