about our printers

From which of our printers should you purchase your prints and shirts?

We maintain more than one option for our print-on-demand items, here’s why.

Redbubble focuses on art and archival printing, and will print a wider range of images than Zazzle. Some of our designs, such as the Beetle prints as well as our photography, are only available through Redbubble. Redbubble has also just introduced throw pillows.

Prints from Redbubble can be ordered in six options:

1. -Photographic: Silver halide prints on archival Kodak paper, in a choice of two finishes, sizes range from 8” x 8” to 20” x 20”

Zazzle sells a wider variety of products and slightly larger posters than Redbubble, and in more countries. Our stickers, and some other items like keychains and mugs, are only available through Zazzle.

Prints from Zazzle can be ordered in four options:

1. -Value poster paper: Matte finish on very white paper
   

2. -Poster paper: Bright semi-gloss finish
   

3. -Archival heavyweight paper: Matte finish designed for highly saturated images, fade-resistant archival quality
   

4. -Premium canvas: Gloss canvas made from additive-free tightly woven cotton-poly blend, ready for stretching
   

Sizes for all of the above range from 11” x 11” to 40” x 40”.

Framing is available on all print options in 82 different frame styles, including both wood and metal, 19 different mat options, and standard or UV acrylic glazing.

Clothing can be purchased in many shirt styles (126!) that also vary greatly in price. Lowest-cost t-shirt options are available from Zazzle, but American Apparel premium shirts tend to be a bit less expensive at Redbubble. Zipper and pullover hoodies, golf shirts and other items are also available.

In addition to all of that, Zazzle also has mugs, bumper stickers,  keychains, iphone cases, tote bags and sticker sheets.*

We have set up our mugs and cases to have changeable background colors, so if there is a change you would like to make, click “Customize it,” look for the “Edit” button, and select “Background.”

*Not all of our graphics are set up for every product, so if there’s a missing one that you would like, please let us know.
