Show HN: Threadless for socks

So...This is what it's come to.

But anyways, let's assume it gets funded for $1M+. Here's a few thoughts:

- The workflow from design->buy should be a lot simpler. I was expecting more of a CustomInk experience. (1. Pick the type of sock, 2. Design, 3. Buy in ANY quantity). - Buying socks should definitely not be an email-only experience, and definitely not with a minimum of 500 pairs. I understand making, say, just 10 pairs is much more expensive, but if someone is at the point buying "Sock Swag", they're probably willing to pay a premium. - Please autosave. - Use a better way to delete an 'image'. I selected an image and pressed backspace which took me back to the home page. - The hash you're using for a saved design URL is tremendously long. If Google docs can get by with shorter unique URLs, so can you. - I just made a sock with pictures of my face. Just because I could. Is that going to be publicly accessible through any sort of gallery? Please make the privacy options more clear.

Been waiting for something like this for a while. Having tried a ton of socks, I find build quality varies quite a bit. Dont see any discussion of this on the site - can you elaborate?

tees have an advantage in that they can say something to others. socks don't, usually.

unless your feet are up on the table.

anyway, it's a GREAT idea. hope it is profitable.
