Funny T-Shirts! or Threadless T-Shirts - Designer Clothing Submissions - Tees, Tshirts and T shirts! shows the status of their inventory. So does anyone out there have a suggestion/solution? Thanks in advance. Tuan

I like the look of Busted Tees - Jokes you can wear! Funny T-Shirts! and therecklessts.com. Both are very clean. How can I go about getting this look for the shopping cart/website?

The bustedtees site is a custom website design. They either had someone in house design it for them or they contracted someone to put the layout together.

The design doesn't come from the shopping cart, it comes from their own creation.

So you would have to hire a web designer to create a site that has a similar look and feel and just get a shopping cart installed (by either the designer or yourself). Then you just put the design layout that was created into the template system of the shopping cart you want to use.

I don't think you'd want to copy the bustedtees site exactly, but the look of images of t-shirts in boxes on the main page is used by several sites these days.

If you are serious about it and want you site to look good then suck it up and pay some money to get it professionally done. That is what we ended up doing and we LOVE the way it turned out. It is far better than anything we could have done and well worth the money.

nice simple design KayDub, couple of things I would want to see if I was shopping is the image on a shirt as opposed to the box with the design purely to get an idea of scale on the tees, and also a contact number and adress for contact us, I never shop with any company unless I can call them if I have problems, emails can easily be missed or forgotten

We are working on getting photos of models that will come up if you click on the desings from the main page.

The address and phone is a good idea. We talked about it but decided to leave it off. We weren't sure it would be too big of a deal to most people.

Definitely a big deal If you are asking for their personal information and their trust, you should give them the same information to help build their trust so they know how to reach you in case of a problem. Email isn't always reliable.

I've been given some quotes for getting a website built from guru.com. I've been quoted 1500 - 2000. All singing and dancing without flash. Is that standard or a bit steep?

Sounds a bit on the higher end but still within the reasonable range.

Depends on what exactly they are doing for that amount though and what your project specs were.

Don't do a Flash website, for several reasons. First reason is that its extremely hard to get a flash website to rank with search engines since there is no content that can be indexed.

You would need to create an entire html frame with all the content on your pages to get it to work, and that will translate into a MUCH higher cost.

Second, most people when asked about e-commerce sites and shopping say they hate flash driven sites. They are generally harder to navigate and slow to load. The other part is the flash is usually done "over the top" and distracts from your products, after all they are there to see what you have to sell, not see the annoying eye candy.
