Anyone operate a Uk version of CafePress?
Discussion
Looking to find a UK supplier where I can get items logo'ed up and sold on...
Basically, want to offer a range of promotional items with a logo on but want to be able to leave this up to a third party such as Cafe Press so all I do is point the prospective vendor their way and get a small affiliate debit.
I doubt it will be high volume so dont want the expense of printing loads of stuff out and them not selling.
Also what software would be best to work out a logo design which is recognised as a decent image producer for larger items such as clothing etc.

Most promotional items are printed using a screen printing process and the preferred image format is EPS with all text converted to curves (i.e no embedded fonts). The most common application for creating EPS's in the industry is Illustrator CS (which is a little pricey) but you could could use Corel Draw.
It is worth noting that screen printing often doesn't reproduce shaing or gradients very well. For this reason most promotional gift designs use solid colours, unless you move to full colour transfers or Dye Sublimation printing particularly on mugs.
