"He who marches out of step hears another drum." ~ Ken Kesey
Art is subjective ! Just look at what Old Navy hets 35 bucks for
After all, a customer who chooses you for price will leave you for price.
On this subject of customer-supplied art and cheap vs. expensive etc... when a customer insists that what they bring in to your shop is what they want, what is the role of the printer here? To give the customer exactly what they want, or teach them what would work even better? Clark's post with the crawdad is a good example... sometimes they need to be shown and taught what good design is. Going the extra mile to educate a little bit about effective design and what people will actually wear is a win-win... for some extra money, a design that will actually be WORN will bring in more business for everyone.
