Feels good, doesn't it?

I think I've sold something like 8 times in all the years my gallery has 
been up. (Not including all the stuff I solve to myself yet still earned 
royalties and referrals on...)

I hypothesize that only a small number of galleries on Zazzle produce 
any significant income. I mean, my gallery is basically a bunch of 
Mandelbrot zooms. Wanna take a guess how many others just like it there 
are out there? Hint: lots. I think you really have to stand out if you 
seriously want to be noticed.

OTOH, many of my most popular products are ones that I myself didn't 
think were very good... From this, we can draw two possible conclusions:

1. I have no sense of taste at all.

2. Everyone has different tastes - and therefore almost anything will 
appeal to *somebody*.

I don't see these options as muturally exclusive.

PS. Don't you hate it when you have to explain to an apparently well 
literate adult what "muturally exclusive" means?
