T-shirt website

[Vince.]

I'm pretty decent with Photoshop and was wondering what it takes to create a website where I can sell t-shirts with my designs printed on them. I don't want to have to physically deal with the t-shirts myself, but I've heard of sites like cafepress where you don't have to physically print the designs on the shirts yourself. I have no idea how these sites work though. What is the cost to set up a store on a website such as cafepress and sell shirts with your designs on them to people? I don't want this to be a serious income for myself, just a little hobby where I could possibly make some extra money. Sorry if this is all really basic stuff, but I have no experience with this and was hoping someone who knows more about it could help. Thanks in advance.

Just go through the process of signing up on cafepress. You don't have to pay anything at all. They automatically create your *store* for you.

So say if I upload a few designs to cafe press and charge $10 a shirt for example, I don't have to pay cafe press anything to make the shirt and send it to the customer?

Straight from the website:

How much does it cost?

With our Basic Shop, you can start selling for free. And, there are no inventory costs associated with selling products through either a Basic or Premium Shop.

Each item you sell has a base price. You simply markup the base price by the amount you wish to earn for each product you sell. When you sell a product, we keep the base price and you earn the markup.

Thanks a lot, I somehow missed the part about the base price when looking at their website.

No problem
