Comments on: Why I Use Spreadshirt http://www.tommywhite.com/pod-talk/spreadshirt-talk/why-i-use-spreadshirt/ Sharing what I know so that it might help others along their way Thu, 26 Apr 2012 09:07:22 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Tommy White http://www.tommywhite.com/pod-talk/spreadshirt-talk/why-i-use-spreadshirt/#comment-60612 Tommy White Tue, 06 Mar 2012 05:26:00 +0000 http://www.tommywhite.com/?p=323#comment-60612 Currently there is no way to do it other than using an IFRAME, which I don't like doing. A lot of the top sites that use Spreadshirt do it that way. I prefer making my site look exactly like www.NekkidTees.com that way the user never really notices they switch sites. It's been brought up several times about allowing us to edit records in order for the .spreadshirt.com site to route to our own domain but so far it's not been brought up again.

Other than that a lot of users use iframes and have good success even though I wouldn't recommend it. I am not sure of any other PODs that allow you to run applications for checkout services from your own site :( The way I have mine set up is that it looks as if you never leave my site.

I am selling other things besides t-shirts in my shop and I can't really have people leave the site for another shopping cart. What would you do? or do you know of any other POD that would allow you to sell through your own shopping cart.

While the color options (numbers) are limited I love the look and feel along with the durability. I have tried their DTG which is nice but on dark colors I didn't like it at the time. It may be better now since they are expanding and always testing new products. Before going to Spreadshirt the only other provider I used was Cafepress. Yes I only offer the flex.

The way most people do it is through iframes which is bad for a lot of reasons. The best way to do it is just make your hosted joomla site the way you want it to look and then duplicate it for the Spreadshirt shop (hosted by Spreadshirt). The problem with this, and it's a big one, is that people will be leaving your site. On the plus side if both sites look identical then most times no one will even know the difference. I always get asked how I integrated mine and the truth is I just did it how I mentioned above. I know that's probably not the answer you were looking for but I hope it helps. Hi Dennis,

They are getting better with the new DTG printing but I still prefer Flex/Flox. BTW I love your work. Yes the o.6 rule can be frustrating.
