Also, I was assuming there would be a variety of different code samples. Just CSS? Really? Dude, that's not even a programming language.
dojo4 [1] (Boulder, CO) built and subsequently took down a similar product called Speakteesy [2] last year. It's really hard to get the pricing reasonable, show people definitively what they're going to receive, and get a quality shirt. We did our best by generating a to-scale proof image using ImageMagick that a user would see prior to paying, but it wasn't a huge help. Lastly, the shirts.io [3] service was our fulfillment backend and, barring some light documentation in areas, was great to work with.
Good luck!

re: shirts.io, yeah I'm using their successor, scalablepress.com. The API is much better now.

You're getting the code as blocks--the hover text is just to show you how the code is being highlighted.
No thanks.
Without a doubt you'll get lots of requests for refunds if this isn't adjusted.

1) Are you doing this white-label?
2) Is this a "passive income" side-project, or something you've put a lot of time to? (Well, it's clear that you've put a lot of time to it... it's a beautiful finished product in every way, but I'm still curious to know how much effort has been put into this)
3) Are you working closely with scalablepress folks, or do you find their api to be powerful enough that you need not get in touch with them?
4) I see that just the blocks are being printed, not the code. There is probably a lot of demand for the printed-code shirts - why not go for that? (is it markedly more expensive to print text on shirts?)
2) "Passive income" side project, though with all the HN hate it's turning into a bit more scrambling than I'd imagined :).
3) I do ask them questions since I'm a pretty early user of the API, but it's pretty well-documented at this point so I don't imagine you'd run into much trouble developing on it.
Please don't mind the 'HN hate', we're a nit-picky bunch. Remember that almost always you can make it better.
The current upset seems to be about confusion as to whether shirts will have actual code or not on them -- give the folks who've ordered some sort of a clarification note, and hope for the best.
Regardless, this was a pretty nifty project. I give it a 9/10 (1 pt. lost for lacking UX in some areas and slight misrepresentation of product, but I know your next project, whatever it'll be, will more than make up for it :))

Genuinely think you would generate much more interest(and less confusion/knee-jerk anger) if you had the option of having the code printed on the shirt overlaying the blocks.
I'd definitely be interested.
Kudos is all I have to say. I wish I had those skills!
Is this like Abercrombie and Fitch where they only want the hotties in their shirts?

(Just fixed it so that it shows Unisex sizes by default.)
main(k){float i,j,r,x,y=-16;while(puts(""),y++<15)for(x
=0;x++<84;putchar(" .:-;!/>)|&IH%*#"[k&15]))for(i=k=r=0;
j=r*r-i*i-2+x/25,i=2*r*i+y/10,j*j+i*i<11&&k++<111;r=j);}

get a tshirt with that
goto fail;
...or are we past that joke now?
(In fact, I wore it today - someone else printed them right after the disclosure).
