That site is a bit picky, but still very cool.
The images _must_ be within a certain size to qualify for use on 
saleable items, I think between about 6 and 10 megapixels.

It's a shame I've lost the original scans of some of the ones that have 
sold. I never did scan them above 600 dpi, usually 300dpi..
(now doing 1200dpi on b/w ones)

It is possible to vectorise these images, smoothed edges and printable 
at any scale unpixelated, but it is not easy to do so without the images 
taking on a new form: that of perfect strokes, the artists hand removed, 
so to speak. Scanning in mono does this already to a great extent by 
removing any gradation of black naturally occurring, but that's actually 
a plus. Some detail is also lost from the originals.

A lot of Redbubble is just people taking pictures of their feet or face.
I guess some may agree it's art and buy into it ;)
Whatever, it's still worth a sift through.
