I closed my CP shop last year. It was the first POD site I ever discovered and joined in 2005. Fortunately, I hadn't quite worked on it full time before I discovered Zazzle 2 years later. After some growing pains, Zazzle eventually became my POD of choice. Closing my CP shop was kind of anti-climatic. Since then I have also opened up shops at Printfection, T-Shirt Monster, Spreadshirt and Skreened. I don't miss CP one bit. I agree with Kim. I closed my CP shop last year.

These are all very good suggestions regarding promoting your shops. I do however have a bone to pick regarding cafepress. Due to censorship and the closing of threads in forums regarding the topic, I post my concerns here. I have been with cafepress since 2006 and did quite well with 50% sales from my shop, until these new marketplace "changes" took place. My July sales have plummeted 75%. with a meager 1 "shop sale". I found 5 other free online gift and t-shirt shops that I am quite happy with (comboutique, spreadshirt, zazzle, tshirtmonster and wordans). I will be investing my design time into these shops, and will be moving away from cafepress unless their policies return to a fair practice for us designers, who are the backbone of cafepress.
