5/22: NEW! The Hangover Part III & the Wolf Pack are here!

The famous Wolf Pack is back! Are you ready to design for their Epic Finale? Now you can create your own Hangover III-inspired T-shirts, hats, phone cases and other great gear, and share your favorite movie-inspired moments and quotes! Maybe the Intervention scene sparks your creativity, or a scene with Mr. Chow (think you can fly??)…or, maybe it’s Phil hanging from the bed sheets. Photo op anyone? The Hangover III has so many hysterical moments and quotes we think you’ll find inspiration wherever you look. So enjoy…and try not to laugh too hard while designing. We do have two serious notes to add to your process—please make sure to follow the brand guidelines, and always add the tag “TheHangoverMovie3” to your images. Oh, and don’t drink and design. Pretty sure there are rules against that.

E-commerce plug-in makes its debut

Businesses and bloggers, today is your lucky day! CafePress has announced the launch of PressIt, an innovative e-commerce plug-in that creates opportunities for bloggers and other small online businesses to seamlessly monetize their original content without relying solely on outside advertising placements that may detract from a site’s unique focus.

PressIt is a free, downloadable button that can be added to any Web page. It synchronizes a site’s proprietary Web content with the CafePress product ecosystem, enabling bloggers and other small online businesses to generate revenue from a blog’s original content by allowing visitors create fully customizable print-on-demand products through CafePress.

How it Works:

Blogger or Business signs up to become a CafePress affiliate.
Downloads and installs PressIt button to Web page content they believe may generate unique e-commerce product revenue (images, graphics, logos, text).
Visitors who click the PressIt button will be able to see selected content on a selection of CafePress’ over 500 base products – including t-shirts, mugs, posters or tote bags.
Visitors place an order and, if completed and approved, the content owner earns an affiliate commission from CafePress.

The free PressIt plug-in is available from WordPress by clicking here. Non-Wordpress users can install a simple JavaScript code on their site by clicking http://pressit.cplaunchpad.com/about.html.
