Hey, have you guys ever considered using Cafepress.com to make Terraearth.com clothing? I would totally wear a TE t-shirt or cap.
It would also be cool if we sent you avatars and you could get character specific shirts and stuff.

Sorry to reply so late, but I'm cleaning up the board.. so I came across this post.
Yes, we've considered it. However a free Cafepress store will only allow you to sell 1 item per item type. E.g.: Once we've created a t-shirt with Ark on it, we can't make a second t-shirt with Elle on it.
The premium store does allow unlimited options (and templating for the store) but it's not free, it requires a fee per month. Right now TerraEarth is losing money faster than making it (no ads and such) so the money for the store would have to come out of our own pockets. Above that, even if your store doesn't sell a thing, you still have to pay the fee. That's why we haven't started doing anything with it just yet.
On the side note: We've not completely sure if it's legal to sell shirts with Enix artwork. Even though the rights for Terranigma have expired.. we're really not sure. (Square-Enix is a pretty big [evil!] bad corp.)
