I am finally ready to launch a Novelty T-Shirt shop but I don't want anything to complex. I am thinking something along the lines of a website like this Bigtimeteez.com
Can someone maybe tell me what format they used with this site? I think It Is Cubecart, Is this easy to use? Thanks!

You can read a LOT about cubecart by reading through the threads in this forum that can be found in a search: cubecart related topics at T-Shirt Forums

very easy to do. he practically did nothing

Yep, it's cubecart v3. I would spend a few bucks and get v4. You can see the differences here... CubeCart - Feature Comparison Table

I went to Bigtimeteez.com and some of the designs on the home page seems to be the same as those from SnorgTees.com.
Only the colors are different.

E.g:
-I drink your Milkshake
-I'm kind of a big deal (I see this slogan used everywhere)

Yeah, I actually noticed the same designs on a lot of different sites like BigtimeTeez.com, Bustedtees.com, SnorgTees, etc. It seems they just change them up a bit. The reason I like the BigtimeTeez.com site Is because of the simplicity. It really looks clean and I beleive customers like that? At least I do.

Xeon · May 28th, 2008

LOL, yeah, but SnorgTees and BustedTees.com etc have a clean simple interface too.
At least they're not as cluttered as Threadless.

Anyway, I wonder why they even want to copy each other, though.
It takes away the originality and makes them look cheap.

Basikboy · May 28th, 2008

Yes, they are clean too but BigtimeTeez.com has the pics. without the models. I honestly think It Is better to show the t-shirts without the models because I have taken classes on advertising and If you show all the shirts with these super skinny models you will scare off the bigger sized customers and I would like to sell up to 3XL. I guess It all depends on who your target market is?

cosmicjim · May 28th, 2008

fashion is different. tshirts are still clothing. And clothing marketing(right or wrong) relies on skinny models

signs4bizness · May 28th, 2008

Target Market. Those words get more crucial everyday. Think about the customer. I target a huge variety so I would go without the models.

I like the way the shirt designs are just a box without models is it hard to do this how is this done. i really would like to create this

As mentioned above, it is done by the cubecart software. You can get it at CubeCart - Free & Commercial Online Shopping Cart Solutions

YOU create the pictures that show up in the store. So you would just upload the images the way you want them to look.

I agree with you. I also agree It all depends on who your target market is.

Just checked out Bigtimeteez.com again to get some more ideas for the layout of my site and I noticed they have their shirts now priced at $10 each!! How can they make any money selling that cheap?
