Death… and taxes… Well, I guess you can add a third one to that list, the continuing proliferation of design-submission-competition tee stores. There are a lot of them out there, and if the previous post about Threadless taught us anything its that as a business model it can be pretty darned successful, so I’m not one of those guys that rolls his eyes when I see another company that seems similar to the big T, because lets face it, it’s a good way to make sure you have quality (and commercial quality) in your inventory.

Styletax treats its artists a bit different to most of its brethren, instead one getting one lump sum as a prize for having a winning design, it’s possible that you could be earning cash off your design for the forseeable future. Styletax will give you €1 for every tee that they sell with your design on it, I think they do runs of 100 tees, so if you design a good seller then you’d get up to €100, but reprints are always a possibility. You also get a couple of free tees if your design is a winner.

There’s quite a lot of cartoony, bold vectored designs in the shop at the moment, but my favourites are actually the more intricate and subtle designs (such as ‘Drawing a Daydream’ and ‘Night Owl’), so there’s a nice variety

All the tees are a reasonable €15, but when you consider that worldwide shipping is €2.50 for 1 tee, then you’ve got a very good deal.

And if you were wondering why there is no picture or page links, it’s because the whole site is Flash and I’m not really in the mood to take a screen capture and crop it at 2am.
