Join the Red Bubble
December 8, 2007 by sil63
Red Bubble is an artists community and site where anyone can display and sell their own artwork (prints, greeting cards and t-shirts) and also share their writings. It’s relatively new but already counts a lot of members from all over the world and it promises to become a valid alternative to Flickr and Imagekind.com.
I decided I’d give it a try and I immediately liked its easy navigation and layout. Everything is kept tidy and elegant. It was nice to upload my images, set my markup prices for prints, and see people commenting almost right-away. Sure it needs some further implementations but the overall impression I had was quite positive.
They are also running a contest with very valuable prizes. Closing date January 13th.

What is it you like about RedBubble compared with Imagekind?
Hi Molly, and thanks for the comment.
I especially like the fact that Redbubble is free and you can upload an unlimited number of images, which you can sell also as greeting cards - a nice added feature. I honestly wouldn’t pay a hundred bucks a year for a Pro Imagekind account with unlimited uploads.
Secondy, Redbubble has offices and printers not only in Australia but in the US and the UK too. This makes them more attractive for non-US buyers who want to save on shipping.
Redbubble seems also a more community-driven site than Imagekind.
Hope this answers your question
