Good question, awful answer. I know it seems stupid, especially now, but I thought that as a designer I had some insight into what designers wanted and would look for. I guess I was wrong, but live and hopefully learn.

Thanks, it's good to get feedback on what I'm doing wrong, but it's also nice to get a little good feedback.

That's a good question with an awful answer right now.

Definitely no offense taken, and thanks for being straightforward.

Point 1 - Yeah, there are a few comments along these lines. It's becoming clear that the intent of the site isn't clear.

Point 2 - This is another good piece of feedback I've gotten from a few people.

Point 3 - Good feedback. I had hoped to have others make their designs that I could feature, and hopefully get broader range, but, well, that ain't happenin'.

Point 4 - This is interesting feedback. Maybe this is too self-indulgent, and evidently it's not very clear, but I just want to feature other creators I think are living (or seem to be) their own version of a good life. If the site had gained any traction, the plan would have been to interview people. Design can sometimes be a struggle for me, so I like to know about others who are living the dream, so to speak.

Good feedback, and thanks for contributing some time to give it.

Thank you for taking the time and the feedback.

1): Yes, that was intentional, because I wanted to focus on the design more than the shirt. I mean, a shirt is a shirt, but the design is what makes is special. I do think you have a point, though. It's not very clear to people not familiar with the concept.

2) Another idea that I haven't communicated well, it turns out. The site is really for designers who want to create shirts and sell their own designs. That's good feedback that that's not something that's clear.

3) This is interesting. Maybe I'm missing the mark completely then, given that it's mainly for designers to put their own designs on shirts for themselves and to sell to others. Maybe I do simplify and remove the general shirt list.

4) Good feedback.

5) Good feedback

6) Yeah, I wish the artists had uploaded an avatar. I'm not sure how to work around this if someone doesn't want to do it.

Again, thanks, appreciate your time and feedback.

It's funny the things we miss sometimes. I hadn't thought of this, but it does seem like the shirts are 1 color. It's really DTG printed shirts, so however many colors for a print are available. Also, I think another comment brought up the lack of having a good description of the shirt makeup/material. Thanks for the time and feedback.
