Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system for generating imprinted items customized by a user via the Internet or other interactive network. The method and system provides for receiving a specification of an item type, wherein associated with that item type are a plurality of constituent parts, including an image, which may be manipulated and edited. The method and system further provide for merging the item type data and constituent parts data to form a merged data set in a format suitable for a fabrication system. The fabrication system then incorporates the merged data with the selected item type to produce a finished product—an imprinted item customized by the user. The product is then provided to the user. Multiple products can be provided to multiple destinations.
