Customize and sell just about anything you want

Yoshi amazes me with his ability to modify anything with a circuit -- undeniably impressive. At times I find myself yearning for the gift of modification.

CustomInk

Running with the "personalizing" theme, CustomInk, another great option, has a custom GUI tool that allows you to design your own products.

Click "The Lab" tab for instant inspiration for putting your inner designer to the test. I really like CustomInk's color options. It offers a wider variety of colors, fabrics, and fonts than CafePress.com.

You won't get uniform prices for goods, but the site gives you instant price quotes for whatever you design. You won't get hit with any hidden charges at checkout. Shipping and setup are free. Only pay the price the company quotes you.

The biggest drawback here is the six-piece minimum for screen prints and 12-piece minimum for embroidered items. If you aren't completely satisfied, take advantage of the site's money back guarantee.
