They should say that American Apparel is the manufacturer of the shirt (I only found out by clicking their google image search link from the checkout page). They're known for running a size small + (imo) they have a good reputation for quality t-shirts, so it might help with sales.

Thanks for the tip! The unisex shirt is American Apparel, and the women's is Bella Ladies' Favorite, or American Apparel depending on the color.

I agree. This is such a misleading website. I don't even know what I'll get.

After you click "Continue with this design," you'll see a proof on the left. You're getting the code as blocks--the hover text is just to show you how the code is being highlighted.

Well that's kind of boring

After seeing the proof, I was still confused what I would receive, and thought maybe the blocks were placeholders for the text that would appear in the final print. You should definitely make this more clear, because the phrasing on the site gives the impression you'll get the actual code.

Without a doubt you'll get lots of requests for refunds if this isn't adjusted.

I don't understand why there are these colored blocks instead of an actual code snippet. Also, I was assuming there would be a variety of different code samples. Just CSS? Really? Dude, that's not even a programming language.

You can type in any code you want...it'll autodetect the language.

Yeah I thought I was getting readable print. Instead I get some coloured lines on a shirt.

No thanks.
