Chirply (YC S10) is Threadless for Paper Goods

The link, in case people try .ly first: http://www.chirply.com/

A few things I noticed:

  - front page looks very different from the voting index, as though they're very different sites
  - front page lacks focus
  - index mentions tacky greeting cards but only shows blank white line-art empty cards rather than actual examples/previews (even if they're not real yet). I'd cut back (or shrink) the front page text and put some designs to vote on there too.

Hopefully the front page is just temporary until winning designs are chosen because all the best stuff is hidden behind it.

Related: Someone should collate "Threadless for x" and FML clone sites so people can see what openings are still available in the market.

i actually owned the domain chirp.ly back in the day. got an inquiry of purchase sometime that would fall in line with the conception of this company. though lost contact with the inquirer.

possible it wasn't the yc company, but i only bring it up because i've seen this happen several times on hn and hey, small world.
