Abstract:

Users access a computer system using a network to customize products offered by selecting from a library of customizing components and applying the components to the products. Data indicative of customized products created by the users is stored in a database. The users can purchase their customized products and/or create an online store to offer and sell their customized products to others. Other users can access the computer system and the online stores to create sub-stores to sell sub-customized products. The stores and sub-stores can provide all of the products and customizing components or just subsets thereof. The online stores and sub-stores can be linked to social media sites and/or be embedded in other web sites. The system can be used with any customizable product including, for example, clothing that is customized with appliqué patches.
