# How
do I do that and would I have to print the things up myself..?

# No
you register a new account on www.cafepress.com and then upload the image for your shirts (at a nice high resolution).

You then choose what you want to see and at how high a premium above base cost.

Cafepress then do the rest, and even (occasionally) begrudgingly send you a cheque. Or (in my case) shut down your shop for copyright violation :)

# But
when you upload they give their own terms that are a bit more strict than that.
