iPhone Cases Full Of Win
For years I have been waiting for printing on phone cases and have previously had to go elsewhere. Thanks to the addition of iPhone cases artists can upload anything onto their own phone and run wild!
I purchase an Uncommon iPhone case over a year ago well before RB had them on offer of course and the quality is superb. What impressed me most is the subtle indented ‘uncommon’ branding…
Google Image Search Finds Stolen Images!
Well, here’s a new tool that will no doubt become quite handy in finding some art thieves online. Personally, if someone has gone to the trouble of stealing my artwork to try and make a profit I tend to not bother worrying about it as I am focusing on my next endeavor. Life’s too short to chase thieves.
HOWEVER, there are a lot that would like to chase down evil-doers – so today…
When a design goes viral...
I’ve been waiting….
Sometimes you don’t know which design will win hearts. Sometimes you just have to design it to see if others enjoy it as much as you do. Then occasionally, a lot of people seem rather interested in your design…
I was alerted by my Twitter search that Insanely Gaming shared my design (and even included the link back to the shirt – thanks mate!).

Selling, Without Selling Out
To most people, selling your art usually means spamming everyone in your friends list to buy, buy, buy! But very often, that can have a terrible effect on your network and social connections. Here are 5 tips I have learnt of how to effectively sell, without selling out.
1. Don’t Share More Than Twice a Week
If you share your art through Facebook, Twitter and more, be careful how often you …

Recently I was searching for a 503 cartoon for Barkles.com -

Well, let me just say a simple thing goes a long way.
Andy Bauer (Art By Andy) added me to his watchlist about the same time I was looking for someone to do this design. He had a cool cartoon profile pic, which intrigued me so I …

Theft is disgusting
EDIT:
I received an email back from one of the Red Eye crew. While I will not share their response here, they did mention they received the design on a usb key. There are a million and one things I could say about this but I will leave those thoughts up to you.
I have been alerted about a recent bought of design theft in a shop in Dublin. It isn’t just my design however, there are a lot of…
Heavily Increased Sales
I have noticed since Redbuble modified the Gallery to be called and displayed as Shop that my sales have gone up – almost doubling last months previous sales.
I think the main reason is the language and ‘direction’ given to the consumer – as at a Gallery anyone who wants to buy ‘artwork’ will consider it, scratch their heads etc – but when it’s call…

Model T-Shirt Display Images
While the cartoon T-shirt display does look good, it would be fantastic if Redbubble could trial the Model T-Shirt Display Images – Basically taking a photo of one guy + girl in slightly different poses (each pose represents 1 t-shirt colour) and using that as our display images.
I noticed that in the shop (http://www.redbubble.com/shop/t-shirts) there is a photo of a guy wearing a blue shi…
