Theres a good book called "the guide to photo markets"
Theres a million websites like that one. The print on demand market is VERY slow now as is gallery sales.Love your avatar. |

Certain web sites that you can create from templates offer the ability to have your images sold. Usually though you will have to take care of the orders and shipping. You can look into something like that or you can use something like Zenfolio by Mpix.

I had a really good christmas season with zazzle, calendars, etc but i don't know how the rest of the year will pan out. They allow you to make stationery and business cards too which seem quite popular.
It's not particulary "arty" like imagekind, etc, but it seems to have a reasonably good model and you can upload whatever you want really.

Zazzle is great, other possibilities, hundreds of them, are covered here:
2010 Photographer's Market
The book covers mainly the North American market, but has also a good section on international publishers etc. SY |

go for it!! Never be afraid of putting all sorts of different things up there, even have different stores for different types of things. It's a very "end user" sort of market there with a different time line to here, but I lik that being the designer think. Let me know how you get on!!

Hi. I discovered zazzle 3 weeks ago and created some unique custom postage stamps including wedding postage stamps, RSVP postage stamps, wedding ring postage stamps, colorful flowers and more. You can be the talk of all your family, friends and co-workers with custom postage stamps. One thing I really like about zazzle is if you like someones image on the postage stamp but want to change the text (writing or message) than you can go to personalize product and insert your own text or personal message on the stamp. You can even promote your business or company by typing in your company name, business name or website URL in the space that adds your own text. This is a great tool to advertise your business and will also impress all your clients that receive mail or packages from you with your company name and web address on USPS postage stamps. You can also put your photos on business cards, mugs, custom shoes, aprons, T-shirts, ties, skateboards, stickers, postcards, mouse pads, buttons, key chains, magnets, hats, bags and much more. Its been a real fun experience so far putting my images on all these different products. Here are my zazzle links.
