I need some feedback on my shops

links below

please tell me how I can make them better

I can't get many sales.. I don't really know why

people say my stuff is great but something has to be wrong.

You have some really nice designs!

I just took a look at a couple of your designs, and the only thing I can say is to finish putting up each designs' description, and make sure you pack them with great keywords.

Lots of folks are having a hard time making sales- the economy isn't in too great a shape just now, unfortunately

Try listing your work at other print-on-demand websites. The more you have 'out there', the more sales you'll have!

Best of luck,
Lorie

I love your artwork, but I wouldn't buy your shirts. A big square design on a shirt isn't appealing to me. Everything other the shirts I like though. Maybe with the shirts try making it a circle or oval with a border of some sort. Kinda like your Celtic Pine Tree design.

lorie- thanx
I'll do what you said to do .thank you for your comments

boltz22-thanx. I see what you mean about some of my shirts. the design go off the picture and well, I can't cut the background out like that. and some pitures aren't possible to cut out.

the oval thing might work. I'm not sure. but it's a great idea.

acceptional art work great ideas keep up the good work things will start happening.

thanx. i'm trying katie

You know I've always loved your work, especially the Leaf Dragons. I agree, though, that a square or rectangular design just doesn't work well on clothing. Try the oval idea, and fool around with it a bit to make it your own. Here's one of my dog prints in an oval, but with the main subject duplicated up front: http://www.cafepress.com/caninecasual.416671716

Sherry - I really love that picture and I see what you mean

how is this?

Oh, that's kicking it up a notch! You might consider making the circle border decorative, with leaves or dragons or some such, but it's pretty good as is.

that leaf idea you just gave me would kick some butt. circle of leaves round them. thank you so much for this idea. that helps me alot

I have decorative designs I could use also.

I wish I thought of that. I have alot of work to do I think

But you DID think of it. And I'm sure what you come up with will be aces.

sorry im not going to go on and on about this.
but what about this one I just did?
its a cut out of a frame around a rectangle image.
some rectangle image can't be rounded out though so I did this

Can't see much of the border in the thumbnail, so it's too hard to comment.

maybe i'll stick with oval.

I think you're on the right track, Michael. I like the round image better than the square one (though that border is attractive). I think I would like an oval image even better, especially for the Sacred Heart image. You might be able to decorate the edges with appropriate symbols for your angels, or leaves or "baby" leaf dragons for your dragons. I often make a very simple frame by cropping the image to an oval, then select the transparent area and invert the selection. Now your oval shape is selected. Create a new layer and on that layer modify the selection by expanding it 10 pixels, and bucket fill the selection with a color you like for the frame. Now contract the selection 10 pixels and delete, to reveal your image underneath. Now you have a nice oval frame. Bevel it - use an inner bevel so you don't get any stray transparent pixels (those will mess up a print on dark clothing). Save your PSD, then merge visible layers and save as a png for upload.
