Technical Difficulties

It seems our little problem has been resolved. Thanks for your patience.

We're having a few problems with the site and feel it's reasonable to explain exactly what the problems are and why they're happening.

In the simplest terms possible (hopefully it'll be clearer than mud) I'll try to explain.

The Liberated is a shop that promotes products from Cafepress (the printing company) shopkeepers. Because of this, the product pages on the website are not hosted directly on the liberated.kippygo.com domain. These pages are pulled from the Cafepress website.

Last night the Cafepress team made some updates on their own website which have caused a minor glitch on the websites of people who host their own websites selling Cafepress products.

This glitch simply means that the product image will not appear on an individual product page. For instance, let's say you're browsing the anti-Bush section of the shop and from there click on the icon to browse "Stop Mad Cowboy" products. You decide you want to purchase or have a closer look at "the Stop Mad Cowboy Disease Anti- Value T-shirt." The page with the individual product, in this instance the one I just listed, will be missing its picture.

Normally there would be a close-up image of the product with the design on it, but as a result of upgrades to the system these images are no longer appearing.

Also you may notice that the graphics are loading incorrectly (i.e. they look out of place, incorrect, or just "not right"). This is also a result of the upgrades, but does not affect your browsing experience in any way other than aesthetically.

This does not affect your ability to add items to your cart and make purchases or to otherwise browse the store.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and will keep you updated on fixes to the problem.

A Few Liberal Women's Choice, Pro-Choice T-Shirts and Bumper Stickers

This clever and witty pro-choice bumper sticker slogan is also available on t-shirts and more. If the fetus you save is gay, will you still fight for its rights?


This Funny Pro-Choice design featuring the pope is available on a variety of products, not just this pink tee.


A design that reminds us of backward times, this liberal wire hanger design also comes on a few other t-shirts and buttons. This women's rights design reads: Welcome to South Dakota. Heath Care... just like Grandma had!

More Earth Day Gifts and Apparel



Earth Day Beauty:

Soft shades of sage and blue color this beautiful Earth Day design. The design reads "Earth Day 2006 Cherish Earth's Beauty" and is one of several great products by Lil' Goodies. This ornate Earth Day design is perfect for any nature lover or environmental activist and is available on a range of quality products, including coffee mugs, t shirts, ornaments, and baby apparel.

I'll take this chance also to boast designs from one of our favorite shops: KA Designs.

Changing LeavesChanging Leaves: Althought not strictly an Earth Day design, this graphic featuring vintage changing leaves not only makes a suitable environmental oriented t shirt for the tree hugger in you, but is also suitable year round, and not just for Earth Day!





Lazy OwlLazy Owl T Shirts and Gifts: If it's the distressed and worn look you're after this Earth Day, this vintage style drawn owl on a branch is perfect. Again, not strictly Earth Day, but it certainly suits the holiday and is a year round design. This graphic is fabulous on the ringer t shirt (love the green!)




Autumn WindAutumn Wind: This winded tree features a retro vintage look and is available, as always, on loads of awesome gear. Kippygo's favorite here is definitely the Jr. Raglan 3/4 Sleeve Shirt.






Birds of PlayBirds of Play T Shirts and Gifts: Featuring retro graphics of colorful birds sitting on leafy brown branches. We love the cap sleeve tee with this earthy retro look. The black t shirt is also pretty awesome.
