Another thought...
You're really good at taking ideas from guys and putting them to mock-up. Do custom work based on the input you get from guys. Maybe they'd even submit photos you could work from?
I took a set of pics awhile back and put them in a super wide frame and I loved it. I had it outside so it didn't last. If I could find that and have you do an original with a variety of cc bands, that'd rock.

What kind of pricetag would something like that carry? Obviously size would dictate, but maybe a size/price range?

No I wouldn't have any problem with people posting a picture of a good idea, in fact I encourage it.
Yes size and difficulty would make a huge difference in cost. Looking at a few other peoples paintings, I see them commonly priced at $100 for a paper print and $500 for a canvas print, with originals in the thousands sometimes. I would be selling my original canvas (Not a print). Unfortunatley I not ready to make a quote at this time.
Just a random guess would be: An original on the canvas I have in stock with an image of my choosing would be around $100. The problem is it can easily cost upwards of $50-$75 in material without anytime included. I will update you guys on some figures after I complete my first project, thinking about getting started this weekend. In my head I was thinking numbers from $100-$200. I will take special orders later on and have a pricing system or due estimates/quotes, just want to do my own thing at first and hopefully sell or trade a couple.

I was thinking about painting on canvas paper instead of streched canvas to help lower the cost and allow the painting to be rolled up for cheaper shipping. I haven't shipped this kind of stuff before so I am not sure how well it will work yet.
Then the purchaser would just need to put it into a frame.

I am not very familiar with CCs, can you maybe post a couple pics of the ones you think would be more desired?
