Excellent Cat Photo on a T-Shirt

By Steve East

For the first time ever, I actually bought a photo online!

I have a cute little online store (which has zero sales) and I was looking for a way to boost traffic to my humble web page.

Since I already had T-shirts for sale, I thought of an idea. How about adding a very funny photo of a cat and place it on the shirt. Add a hilarious caption, then edit them together onto the shirt.

So, I searched the internet for cat photos, there are literally millions of cute, funny cat, kitten, (you name it) photos. How on earth would I pick one. Anyway I stumbled upon a photo on Flikr which had an awesome shot of a cat with a priceless "expression."

I contacted the "author" by email, and asked him what he would charge for the photo. He answered back saying "make me an offer." After thinking about it, I thought about offering US$20 for it, with the intention of going up as high as $50 or so. But he accepted the $20 right away!

So I used paint.net to edit the photo and to add the funny saying, then uploaded them to my tiny t-shirt store (I use the cafepress site).

In my opinion, it would be a very unique and cute gift for a cat lover.

The saying on the T-shirt reads "I love Cats," then in a section on the side (slightly below) it continues: "they taste like chicken!"

Now, I'm very curious to see if my investment will pay off or not.

Stay tuned, and I will update when I get more stats.
