Threadless sucks.

Ever since I started working from home full-time, I've been wearing a lot of t-shirts.

And, as someone who is a bit of a slut for fashion (see my latest piece on Nerfed Gamer about fashion in gaming), I also own a lot of t-shirts featuring works from some of my favorite artists.

The shirt in the header of this post is one of Rob Sheridan's, and I absolutely adore his work.

It's just a shame that it is absolutely falling apart due to Threadless' piss-poor printing methods.

I actually own multiple Rob Sheridan t-shirts, but about half of them are ..

.. Hang on, Sarah Smile by Hall & Oats just came on over the sound system at the coffee shop I'm at, I gotta sing along (buy me a coffee, please, I'm begging you)..

.. Ok, I'm back.

Anyway, half of them have the prints practically destroyed; barely recognized husks of their former glitchy glory.

I have a Nick Maskell t-shirt that I only got to wear a total of 5 times before the artwork was pretty much gone.

That is just plain fucking unacceptable.

It's not like I'm abusing them; they get washed precisely as the care instructions require, and while I've had occasion to wear them out to the gun range, it's not like I'm crawling around pulling a Rambo with my rifle or anything to that effect.

My own works are printed through Redbubble; I am actually very happy with the print quality so far, and they have lasted a LOT longer (my personal favorite is the I'm going to stab you with my last spoon piece on a navy blue hoodie).

I used to get shirts printed through Zazzle, but the high costs and declining color alignment consistency made me switch.

So, if you're looking to get into selling t-shirt designs, I beg of you.. Bypass Threadless and look elsewhere.
