Redbubble spends more time censoring critics than they do addressing the mass intellectual property violations in their marketplace. It's more profitable to pay an employee to monitor social media than to remove content that they KNOW is intellectual property infringement. Redbubble has a long and sordid history of going to court with copyright holders instead of moderating the content. The reason for this is simple; they would lose MILLIONS if they actually removed the violating content. Other POD companies such as Threadless, Spreadhsirt, CafePress, Society6 and Teespring all use proprietary software to purge known copyrighted works before they are even uploaded. Redbubble has the means to do the same thing. Martin Hosking CHOOSES not to use the software. They know exactly what they are doing. They know most copyright holders won;t pursue litigation and the ones who do will be tied up in court for so long that the company will make millions on their works before a judge orders its removal. This company hides behind "third party" status and tries to claim the copyright moderation is the obligation of the shop keeper or artist uploading the design. They refuse to take any responsibility for it. No other POD company on the market behaves this way. This is a terrible company and if you are shopping or selling on this platform YOU are part of the problem. You are enabling these people to steal from other artists and copyright holders. Many artists try to dismiss this by telling themselves "everybody does it" or "Redbubble is doing the best they can to prevent it". Neither of those statements is true. Every POD company DOES NOT do this. And even if they did, how does that make it right in any way? No, the truth is, the people selling on this platform need the money and they don't want to sacrifice it over morals and ethics. Folks, this is why the world we live in sucks. Everybody wants to virtue signal and pretend they care, but in actuality it's all just about image. Redbubble will be the first to make a post on social media about blacklivesmatter or LGBTQ rights, but then they allow mass intellectual property theft on their platform and rob people every day. Does that seem like a company that cares to you? If you are selling or buying on Redbubble you are part of the problem. This company could not exist if you didn't shop or sell here. Plain and simple. These people don't lose any sleep at night over the outright theft of copyright. But if it became a societal issue that they could slap on a shirt and wear around town to show everyone what wonderful human beings they were, they'd be all about it. They'd wear this cause like they wear LGBTQ rights or Blacklivesmatter. The faux outrage would be off the charts. But they can steal copyright all day without your average person knowing about it. Suddenly being a good human isn't their identity. It's what you do when nobody is looking that defines who you are. And this company doesn't want you to see who they really are. That's why they spend more time trying to censor blog comments than simply removing the copyright protected works from their marketplace. They can't even deny it. KPAK3H.com/blog

I have a question so basically I create a Redbubble account, load up my designs and choose a merchandiser to create and attach my pay pal acc. When one of my t-shirt designs are purchased do they charge my credit card for the shipping or to cover the production cost of the product ? then repay me when they receive the customer's payment so to speak by paying me a commission? I guess my question is my PayPal or card charged for any reason during the process?

I believe they control all of the shipping and production costs but then you only get a margin of that sale you could also control that margin by markup on products

CON: you can create a few designs (non offensive and non copyrighted) and they may suspend you before you even put “for sale” on public. You lose all that work and will never get your site back because they have terrible customer service. You’ll have to recreate another account on another computer or else they will catch that too and their system can tell if your developing another account from the same IP address, even if you use a VPN.

I had RB delete one of my pictures because apparently it was _copyright infringement_ (it was fanart) yet I've seen people upload literal copyrighted photos that they did not take or create and are able to make 1000s of sales from it! RB can be kind of sketchy and seem to call the shots randomly. I just don't understand how people can take pictures of celebrities from Google images and make a collage out of it and make momey, but if I made fanart for a cartoon it gets taken down. It's bullshit!

[@Ken.-]

@@b1njjj95 Fanart is copyright infringement when you try to sell it. Redbubble can't manage the millions of things people upload, so it may have been a take down notice they received that caused your work to be removed.

[@b1njjj95]

@@Ken.- Not really, because it's my work that I created. I get that it's artwork for a licensed TV series, but it's not the same as the thousands of pictures of actual copyrighted material, like screenshots and promotional posters that are being re-uploaded onto RB that get sales. Yeah, well RB should really have better system in place to monitor actual copyright infringement because it's not fair that people are making money off of stolen posters and screenshots while artists that make real art get their work flagged.

[@Ken.-]

@@b1njjj95 Doesn't matter if you created it. Using the likeness of images you don't own is copyright infringement. As for redbubble's system, like I said, they may have received a takedown notice. Most websites aren't in the business of policing their users. They would have no way of knowing if a particular work is a violation of someone's copyright or if the user has permission. If the owners of the work you've made Fanart of are overly aggressive in protecting their copyright, then your going to see your work taken down.

Which is better, red bubble or Etsy?

Redbubble spends more time censoring critics than they do addressing the mass intellectual property violations in their marketplace. It's more profitable to pay an employee to monitor social media than to remove content that they KNOW is intellectual property infringement. Redbubble has a long and sordid history of going to court with copyright holders instead of moderating the content. The reason for this is simple; they would lose MILLIONS if they actually removed the violating content. Other POD companies such as Threadless, Spreadhsirt, CafePress, Society6 and Teespring all use proprietary software to purge known copyrighted works before they are even uploaded. Redbubble has the means to do the same thing. Martin Hosking CHOOSES not to use the software. They know exactly what they are doing. They know most copyright holders won;t pursue litigation and the ones who do will be tied up in court for so long that the company will make millions on their works before a judge orders its removal. This company hides behind "third party" status and tries to claim the copyright moderation is the obligation of the shop keeper or artist uploading the design. They refuse to take any responsibility for it. No other POD company on the market behaves this way. This is a terrible company and if you are shopping or selling on this platform YOU are part of the problem. You are enabling these people to steal from other artists and copyright holders. Many artists try to dismiss this by telling themselves "everybody does it" or "Redbubble is doing the best they can to prevent it". Neither of those statements is true. Every POD company DOES NOT do this. And even if they did, how does that make it right in any way? No, the truth is, the people selling on this platform need the money and they don't want to sacrifice it over morals and ethics. Folks, this is why the world we live in sucks. Everybody wants to virtue signal and pretend they care, but in actuality it's all just about image. Redbubble will be the first to make a post on social media about blacklivesmatter or LGBTQ rights, but then they allow mass intellectual property theft on their platform and rob people every day. Does that seem like a company that cares to you? If you are selling or buying on Redbubble you are part of the problem. This company could not exist if you didn't shop or sell here. Plain and simple. These people don't lose any sleep at night over the outright theft of copyright. But if it became a societal issue that they could slap on a shirt and wear around town to show everyone what wonderful human beings they were, they'd be all about it. They'd wear this cause like they wear LGBTQ rights or Blacklivesmatter. The faux outrage would be off the charts. But they can steal copyright all day without your average person knowing about it. Suddenly being a good human isn't their identity. It's what you do when nobody is looking that defines who you are. And this company doesn't want you to see who they really are. That's why they spend more time trying to censor blog comments than simply removing the copyright protected works from their marketplace. They can't even deny it. KPAK3H.com/blog

I have a question, do you get your product that you make?? Or not?

[@deetee-uk]

As an artist I opened an account yesterday and was suspended within 24 hours, without any definitive reason. I had to send a mugshot, like a common criminal, in order to try and get my account reinstated. After reading other artist's reviews, as well as customers, I'm glad this happened and I'd only uploaded a handful of images. I won't be dealing with them in future as an artist, nor a customer.

[@RAMIRELLI-Art]

is there a limit how many designs you can upload to Redbubble?

[@karimrahim9205]

Sorry if my question is kinda random but, do you recommend opening 1 redbubble account per niche ? Or should I just use the 'collections' feature ?

[@AlexandraStrambu]

I thought about this when I was starting out too! I ended up deciding to keep just one store and use the collections feature because the more artwork you have the more likely you are to make sales. Maybe if your niches are complete opposites then open 2 separate ones but otherwise I would just do one!

[@karimrahim9205]

Alexandra Strambu | Thanks ! I think I’ll open a different account for my photography/artistic work, and keep the current one mainly for simple/trendy tshirt designs

[@debradavis956]

@@AlexandraStrambu I heard you sell more if you have a nitch, but to me it is too limiting.Then I heard on a video that if you sell something it will only be from one niche and you should stick with that one.I have everything but the kitchen sink on mine. I sold a cartoon animal, and a van gogh painting and they are completely the opposite of eachother. One thing I did hear on a video was to open more than one store so if you get kicked off, you still have another one. You really do not know if you are going to lose your store, and then they probably won''t let you copy your items for sale. I am putting the same exact things on cafepress, just in case,which is a lot easer to use than redbubble.

[@JaneDoe-yd1hz]

So if I upload and figure out the art, Redbubble will put it on a shirt/bag/etc. as necessary and send it out when it is ordered? My main question is on material; am I going to have to create the items myself?

[@alfredharrison597]

You create the art, they print it on the items. You have zero overhead, but they do so thats why you only make a fraction of the total cost of the item. You make about $7 per shirt that sells for $20 dollars. Which if you think about it isnt bad because you are making money off of a virtual product that can be infinitely replicated with zero overhead.
