It’s called Tee Shirts by Me and it’s got a lot of graphic shirts with a few funny ones in for good measure. The plan is to continue to expand each section. For instance, you’ll see an animal shirt section as well as tiger shirt and lion shirt sections. Once that becomes more filled out, it will all fall under the animal shirts category with options on that page to see tee shirts for various animals grouped together. Eventually there will be a “cultural section” to encompass things like the Egyptian shirt and the Kanji shirt selections, plus some other options.
One of my favorite parts is how the front page has a floating menu at the top for each section. Also, getting shirts on tee shirt models and taking photographs would be rather expensive, so these model pictures along the left are actually photos purchased and modified using a picture editing tool.
Obviously, there is a lot of work to be done. First of all, the art has to be done, and that is very time consuming. Much of it is vector art, which doesn’t take quite as long given that you can only use three colors via the normal sort of tee shirt printing. Some of it is bitmap png art with transparencies. This takes a long time to paint, as you have a lot more detail available to you, and you want to make these seem as vivid and detailed as possible.
In any event, we shall see how it goes, but I like the new design. It actually used to be designed exactly like this site, using the same sort of template that I designed for shirt shops. Of course, it still uses the same sort of thumbnail elements. The real change is in the background coding and the sliding door header.
If anyone is interested in a WordPress shirt design that you can use with Spreadshirt, simply go to the contact area and fill out the form to let me know. I’ll set it up so that it can be downloaded, and I am working on a bit of an instruction manual to go with it.
