“Hey, what’s your shirt mean?”
“It means that when the zombie apocalypse does finally come. I don’t want to get eaten alive with some weak-sauce like, ‘Abercombie est. 1892′ on my chest.”
“Wow, that’s cool, I’m really jealous.”
“Yeah, you look really jealous.”

A while ago I had an interview with KC INK Writer Sarah Benson. It was published in last week’s issue and has finally meandered it’s way to their online site.

When we heard about a new, local Web site called 200nipples.com, our imaginations ran wild: Porn site? Guide to medical oddities?

Turns out, 200nipples.com sells T-shirts designed by different Kansas City artists. Only 100 copies of each design are sold. After that, the design plate is destroyed, according to the site.

Each shirt design covers 200 nipples total. That’s barring customers with third nipples.

The shirts are priced on a sliding scale that’s gauged by scarcity. The first shirt sells for $1. The 100th shirt sells for $100. Every month there’s a new design.

The brother-and-sister team behind the site, Kansas City residents Wade Meredith, 27, and Shandra Chapman, 30, launched it July 1. Since then, 200nipples.com has sold shirts to people all over the world, from New Zealand to the United Kingdom to Kansas City.

Meredith said he hoped the site would give Kansas City artists and designers global attention. As for its racy name, Meredith said it’s all about catching the attention of “hipster designer” types. “You know, people who would appreciate something novel.”

But naming your site 200nipples.com has its downsides: “That name gets us banned from a lot of e-mail,” Meredith said.

We made it in their WTF section. (Probably appropriate, but not exactly flattering, in the traditional sense of the word )

Scott and I did another round of feature-polish and debugging this weekend.

• Fixed a cart bug that was giving certain OS/Web Browser combinations trouble.
• When a shirt that is counting down hits zero, it now instantly reverts back to green instead of waiting for the whole page to hit the scheduled 5 minute refresh. (We also fixed the pointer/hand mouse-over issue when hovering over unclickable buttons.)
• Site copy has been adjusted to make the buying experience more consistent from page to page as you move through the cart.
• We added a contextual error message to let someone know what’s going on if they try to head back to the home page while they still have a shirt in their cart.

There’s more stuff in the works, but that’s it for now. You keep buying shirts and we’ll keep making this site better. If there are features you’d like to see, or something you think is confusing or not well laid out, let us know in the comments or via the contact page.
