Imagekind?

Many of my artist friends sell things via Etsy. I've often wished that there was something similar for photographers. And then yesterday I found imagekind.com. Has anyone used a service like this in the past to sell prints? Anyone have any thoughts on these kinds of services? Thanks. -- ~Nick D
