Hey,
New to the forum and wanted to put a post on the new member introduction area.
Graduated a printmaker but just recently got into screening tee's. I print in my basement and right now am just learning some tricks while printing shirts for my friends.
I don't plan on starting a business but wouldn't mind trying to sell some of my designs. Would love all of the advise that I can get.

Thanks
T

There is a ton of info here, and we are all learning and sharing,, so just jump right in.

I see that you have an etsy account. How is that for you? A couple of friends told me that I should start an account there for my shirts. Do they take a portion of the sales? How much traffic do you get? I guess I just need to check it out

Yes they charge to list, and a portion,, slow but I use it as a online store and post it where ever i go,, to lead poeple there.
I also sell on ebay, and have a brick and Morter Store.
I so more custom orders thru etsy than sell what I actually have there,,

Good to know, I guess I'll look into starting an account there.
