Yes, now it's Year of the Hare, but why don't you make every year to be Year of the Rare? YOU are RARE! Or, "you are unique, like everybody else [get it? :) ]. YOU have a rare/unique set of qualities (and defects, I might specify) - why shouldn't YOU express yourself by designing FREE OF CHARGE? Look at my tiger stamps. You, too, can do something like that, or better! :)

Year of the Hare ( more correct than Year of the Rabbit, they say)

Why don't you make every year to be Year of the RARE creator/designer (that's YOU!)?

"Tu, soltanto tu..."

:)

Designing such personalized stamps is a lot of fun!

I also put them for sale (minimum quantity is a sheet of 20 stamps, per Zazzle policy) in my Public Gallery at Zazzle (they ship only to US addresses).

I also put them for sale individually, not in sheets of 20, at http://www.delcampe.net/stores/dorinco.

Today I am shipping ("Dude, where's my SHIP?") 9 of the above tiger personalized stamps to a collector in Germany. 

He paid at delcampe $5 apiece, plus a combined $5 for shipping, delcampe fees and PayPal fees. Total $50.

A week ago, I have shipped a set of ALL 11 different tiger personalized stamps to a collector/dealer in the Russian Federation. 

Total 11x$5 +$5= $60. Plus $12 Registered Mail fee, per USPS. Final amount = $72.

DID YOU KNOW that there are more US$ billionaires in Moscow than in any other city in the world?

Billionaires from around the world, bored out of your mind...you're welcome to splurge on my stupid little stamp designs...:) :)

What's in it for you, if you are a regular Joe or Jane, working your ass off at the daily grind, living your life of quiet desperation? [Welcome to the Club!]

As I said, ANYBODY in the world can design in 200+ lines of products at Zazzle, not just stamps.

FREE.

Then put them for sale.

Then, if anything sells, you'll get a modest royalty.

But it may add up, if you're wildly successful [lasciate ogni speranza...but you never know, until you try :) ]

I have occasionally created other items, besides stamps.

Take a look, if you don't believe me :) ( see the Dubya T-shirt, the giant panda poster, etc.):

I'll say it again, to make it clear for everybody:

I spoke on the phone 1-888-8ZAZZLE (1-888-892-9953)with Jillina @zazzle, and she checked with her supervisor.

Zazzle stamps can ONLY be shipped to an US address!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The best procedure is this:

1) you can design zazzle personalized stamps by registering at zazzle.com (the main US website of Zazzle), regardless of where in the world you reside.

Put them in the Public Gallery so you can receive royalty payments (thru PayPal or check) from Zazzle, should your products find buyers!

2) you can order zazzle stamps ONLY from zazzle.com (not the regional zazzle portals!), regardless of where in the world is your billing address associated with your credit card.

3) you can ONLY receive those stamps at an address in USA! So you better get a partner/friend in USA! :)

Y, as in Year of the RARE "YOU"
