Default What is the best way to start selling prints?

Hey all,
I really want to start selling prints of some of my work. What is the best way to go about this? I have no web design skills. Also how do you go about advertising you have prints for sale? Any help is greatly appreciated. I would like to hear stories from those of you that do sell prints too. Thanks

I would also like to know where you can get prints made.
Do you gise do it locally, print them by your self, or is their an online place to do this?

Another vote for MPIX. But hortonsI62 asks a very improtant question. I have a website for my landscape photos BUT when I shoot High School Sports,I will set up a gallery through Exposure Manager to make it easy for parents to order pictures and streamline my work.
