FineLine is also reducing its prices for most items on its e-commerce store due to improved efficiencies in order techniques, economies of scale in supply costs as well as quantity manufacturing price reductions.

The company has exposed some of its apparel lines in Spain to gauge initial acceptance and receptivity and met with highly favorable results. ''Kids, teenagers and young adults are the same no matter where they reside,'' commented Petry, ''in Europe, however, the younger generation is specially receptive to American music, movies and cartoons.'' The company will develop outlet store locations in Spain and later European countries to go with its Internet e-commerce branding strategy which is modeled on such successful online retailers as Disney (NYSE:DIS - news), Amazon.com (Nasdaq:AMZN - news), Dell (Nasdaq:DELL - news), and Ebay (Nasdaq:EBAY - news). FineLine's ''Signature Line'' of apparel is inspired by the company's extensive cartoon family of over 145 characters and it offers over 90 different items, including designer shirts, casual shirts, jersey tops and dresses.
