Difference between Cafepress and Zazzle

For anyone wondering why there are no unique pictures on my Cafepress store, it’s because I haven’t made any so far!

The only “picture” is a collection of the original 5 Sileghea pictures.

See, the Zazzle Store is called “Squimpleton & Friends”

But the Cafepress Store is called “Squimpleton & Friends: Special Events”. There’s a reason why I called it that. I had decided long before I actually put up any pictures whatsoever on either site that I would use Cafepress only for limited edition pictures. These are more intricate and will be available on any item where the picture fits.(I’m not one to go according to the recommended pic sizes. I do what is best for me as I design) .

Currently the Cafepress store only has a collection – 5 Sileghea pictures that were put together into one. All of the Sileghea collection items will eventually be taken down sometime early December.

However I will be making a xmas picture! It’ll be available at the beginning of December and will be taken down in mid January – hopefully to make way for a Valentine’s day picture?

Official Squimpleton & Friends Lens

Will Post Nov 17
While there already was a Sileghea lens, there was no full Squimpleton & Friends lens up yet.

Until now.
The page is really more of a main navigation for extra lenses, but I’m sure you’ll find some interesting info there.

Speaking of Lenses, there is also a lens for Emoti Moto!

True, Emoti’s technically an extra character, but you never truly know what the future may bring!

Also, check out the gallery’s new look! Bright colors and a new button system to fall in love with.

Horgeeman, Pog, and Emoti Moto

For anyone out there who has seen the Zazzle shop, you probably are aware that there are multiple characters out there. While Sileghea may be my favorite character, there are three current others: Horgeeman, Pog, and Emoti Moto.

Horgeeman is supposed to be a main character, but I’m actually having a hard time coming up with stuff for him so he may drop down to an extra.

Pog is a true extra in the sense that he wasn’t even created for Squimpleton World! He was just a little project I did to practice on Fireworks, but I loved him so much I made him into a Squimpleton character. However, because he is so different in style, I couldn’t make him part of the main world. Instead he is Squimpleton’s favorite comic book character.

Emoti Moto was an extra in concept, and will probably always remain one. Unlike the other characters who have short sayings that are somewhat humorous, Emoti Moto gives a poem according to her mood. There are three moods: depressed, angry, and happy.

Sileghea lens

When I created Squimpleton & Friends, I only had two characters: Squimpleton & Sileghea (pronounced Suh-lee-jah).

Since Squimpleton is me, I decided to make her special by NOT making designs for her. She’ll only appear in group specials.
So Sileghea was my first actual designable character and I loved her; I made 5 pictures right off the bat.

Even though I have more characters in my head, and even on my computer, I’ve decided to celebrate my Sileghea with a squidoo lens all about her.

I know I don’t have much in there (hey, I have college to worry about!), but be sure to take a peek!
