Smizzy Launches AI Generation T-Shirt & Merch Store to Challenge Amazon

August 05, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Smizzy today announced the full scope of its AI-generated merch platform, documenting a product lineup that turns everyday ideas into physical goods through dedicated consumer design generators. The current collection includes an AI t-shirt generator, custom sticker generator, custom magnet generator, AI mouse pad generator, and AI puzzle generator, with more on the way.
The launch reflects a larger change in how people approach personalized products. AI image generation is moving beyond standalone pictures and into practical items made for birthdays, reunions, inside jokes, fandoms, home offices, small businesses, bands, creators, and community events. Consumers increasingly begin with a sentence, refine the visual through conversation or controls, preview it on a real product, and order the finished item within the same experience.

That behavior is becoming visible across retail. Amazon recently introduced prompt-based custom merch creation for U.S. shoppers, including t-shirts and personalized gifts. Adobe reported that generative AI sources drove a 693.4 percent year-over-year increase in traffic to U.S. retail sites during the 2025 holiday season. Etsy’s recent trend reporting continues to highlight personalization, keepsakes, apparel, and meaningful gifts across major occasions. Together, those signals point to a new consumer expectation: AI can help shape not only what people discover, but what they create.
Smizzy’s breakthrough is its product-specific approach to AI merch generation. Instead of presenting a general image tool and leaving production decisions to the customer, each generator is built around the dimensions, preview needs, customization options, and ordering path of the item being made. The focus is on disrupting larger merch stores that can't offer the same level of consumer friendly experience combined with high quality AI models.
The Smizzy AI T-Shirt Generator converts a written idea into original shirt artwork, then places it in a t-shirt design workflow. Consumers can choose a visual style and shirt color, add text, upload a logo, or include an optional scannable QR code. That combination supports personal designs alongside band merch, creator merchandise, event shirts, and business marketing products that connect a physical t-shirt to a website, music page, menu, campaign, or social profile.
The Custom Sticker Generator applies AI artwork to square sticker formats. It covers standard custom stickers, weather-resistant indoor and outdoor stickers, and glossy label rolls, with options for logos and QR codes. The format reflects the growing use of small branded products for packaging, local promotion, product launches, clubs, and creator communities, while also serving personal art and gift projects.
The Custom Magnet Generator brings the same prompt-based design process to matte square indoor magnets in 3-by-3, 4-by-4, and 6-by-6-inch sizes. Original artwork can be paired with a logo or QR code, giving the familiar refrigerator magnet a role in personal keepsakes, event reminders, local business visibility, and compact promotional merchandise.
The AI Mouse Pad Design Generator is built for edge-to-edge desk artwork on a rectangular mouse pad. Consumers can describe a scene, theme, hobby, monogram, or visual direction and see the composition applied to the product. Its place in the lineup shows how AI-generated gifts are expanding from apparel into useful home office and gaming accessories.
The AI Puzzle Generator extends personalized AI product design into screen-free entertainment. A single generated design can be previewed across six configurations: 30, 110, 252, 500, 1,000, and 2,000 pieces. The range covers children, families, casual puzzlers, and experienced enthusiasts, while the finished artwork also appears on a gift-ready metal tin. Users can adjust the image crop, inspect a simulated piece overlay, edit the artwork, save a draft, and share a design.
More unique offerings such as tabletop RPG mat & board generation tools are in the works.
Across these offerings, Smizzy connects natural-language creation with product-aware previews and print-on-demand fulfillment. The result documents a broader direction for AI t-shirt generation and AI merch generation: the technology is becoming less about producing an isolated digital image and more about helping consumers make a specific object tied to a person, moment, message, or business goal.
This development also widens the meaning of merchandise. A t-shirt can carry a campaign link. A sticker can become package branding. A magnet can hold an event reminder. A mouse pad can personalize a daily workspace. A puzzle can turn a private idea into a shared activity. Each begins as language and becomes something physical.

All Pro Thornton Deck Builders Expands Pergola and Shade Services

THORNTON, CO - August 05, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
All Pro Thornton Deck Builders, a residential construction contractor serving the north Denver metropolitan area, has expanded its outdoor living division to include dedicated design and installation of shade structures and pergolas across Adams County and surrounding communities. The expansion responds to rising homeowner demand for permanent shade solutions and covered outdoor seating areas ahead of the summer construction season.
The expanded service line covers freestanding and attached pergolas, louvered roof systems, gazebos, and integrated shade sails, with construction options ranging from cedar and pressure-treated lumber to powder-coated aluminum and composite materials. Homeowners in Thornton, Northglenn, Broomfield, and Westminster can now schedule consultations directly for structures designed to withstand Front Range wind loads and snow accumulation typical of the region.

Colorado's high-altitude climate presents specific engineering challenges that shaped the new offerings. Ultraviolet exposure along the Front Range degrades untreated wood at a faster rate than at lower elevations, snow loads in Adams County commonly require structural framing rated for thirty pounds per square foot or higher, and downslope wind events can exceed sixty miles per hour during winter months. Each of the new structures is engineered with those conditions in mind, and lumber is finished with penetrating stains rated for high ultraviolet exposure.
Demand for outdoor shade construction has climbed across the Front Range over recent years, driven by longer summer heat cycles and homeowners investing in usable backyard space. Industry observers have noted a broader national trend toward permanent outdoor structures, with pergolas frequently cited among the categories seeing sustained residential growth in the aftermath of pandemic-era home improvement spending.
Each project begins with a site evaluation covering sun orientation, existing deck integration, drainage, and municipal code compliance. All Pro Thornton Deck Builders handles permitting through the City of Thornton and neighboring jurisdictions, and construction crews carry general liability coverage along with workers compensation insurance for every job site.
"The expansion reflects a clear shift in how homeowners along the Front Range use their yards," said David Miller, owner of All Pro Thornton Deck Builders. "Shaded outdoor rooms have become a functional part of the home rather than a seasonal add-on, and the company built the new service line to meet that expectation with structures engineered for local weather conditions."
Projects typically move from consultation to installation within four to eight weeks, depending on material selection and permit review timelines. The company offers three-dimensional design renderings prior to construction, allowing homeowners to review dimensions, roof pitch, post placement, and finish options before any framing begins on site.
Attached pergolas typically extend from an existing home's exterior wall or an existing deck ledger board, sharing structural load with the residence. Freestanding structures require independent post footings excavated below the local frost line, which sits at roughly thirty-six inches in most of Adams County, and set in concrete piers. Attached construction generally involves less material and a shorter installation window, while freestanding designs offer greater placement flexibility across a yard.
Louvered roof systems, one of the more technically involved additions to the service line, allow rotating aluminum slats controlled by a wall-mounted switch or remote, closing to shed rain and opening to admit direct sunlight. Standard pergola configurations range from ten-by-ten feet for smaller patios to twenty-by-twenty for larger entertaining areas, with custom dimensions available when the site requires it.
Standard warranties cover workmanship for one year and structural framing for five years, with manufacturer warranties passed through on louvered roof mechanisms and composite materials. Optional add-ons include integrated lighting, ceiling fans, retractable canopies, and privacy screening built into pergola posts, each configured to match the primary structure and any adjacent deck surface.
The new service line joins an existing portfolio of custom deck construction, deck restoration, railing installation, and outdoor kitchen framing that All Pro Thornton Deck Builders has offered to Colorado homeowners for more than a decade. Consultations are scheduled by appointment, and preliminary design work is completed before any construction estimate is issued.

Photographer Broadens Headshot Sessions for Agents

August 05, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
JA Headshots, a professional portrait studio in Fort Myers, has expanded its lineup of sessions built specifically for real estate agents, responding to steady demand from a market where an agent's face appears on yard signs, listing portals, business cards, and brokerage rosters. As the Southwest Florida selling season stays active through summer, more agents are updating portraits that have aged past the person a client meets at a showing.

An agent's headshot is often the first impression a buyer or seller forms, appearing beside a listing long before a phone call. Yet many agents still rely on a portrait taken several brokerages ago, or a tightly cropped snapshot that clashes with the polished branding a modern brokerage expects. A dedicated headshot photographer who understands the format can deliver a portrait that works at thumbnail size on a portal and at full size on a sign rider.

The expanded sessions cover wardrobe guidance, background choices that match brokerage branding, and framing that survives the aggressive cropping used by listing sites. Individual agents can book focused sessions at jaheadshots.com/realtor-headshots-fort-myers, while brokerages that want their whole roster to match can arrange group team headshots in one coordinated visit.

"An agent's photo is doing sales work before they ever say a word, so it should look current and approachable, not like a headshot from three brokerages ago. When a whole office matches, the brand reads as organized and serious," said Joshua Albanese, founder and lead photographer at JA Headshots and owner of Spearleaf.com, a marketing agency.
Albanese built a headshot-focused practice in Chicago before relocating to Fort Myers in 2024, and the studio applies the same coaching-first method to agents who spend far more time behind a listing than in front of a lens. Sessions run without a rushed clock, expression coaching helps camera-shy agents relax, and retouching is included so the final images stay natural. Turnaround is arranged to fit an agent's timing for a new listing launch or a personal rebrand.
A portrait that performs across real estate surfaces has to solve a few technical problems at once. It needs a clean, uncluttered background so a face still reads at the size of a portal thumbnail, even lighting that survives a brokerage's color treatment, and enough space around the head to withstand the square, circular, and banner crops that different sites apply automatically. A headshot photographer who shoots for agents frames with that downstream cropping in mind, so a single file holds up on a sign rider, a business card, and a listing profile without looking stretched or cut off.
Beyond the technical fit, an agent's portrait carries a tone. Buyers and sellers tend to choose the person they feel they can trust with the largest transaction of their year, so a photo that reads as approachable and current does real work before a first call. The studio's coaching is aimed at that exact impression, drawing out a warm, confident expression rather than the stiff, arms-crossed pose that dates so many agent photos. For someone who spends far more time at a closing table than in front of a camera, that direction often turns an awkward few minutes into a portrait worth using.
The session itself stays unhurried, which matters for agents working around showings and closings. Rather than a rushed handful of frames, a headshot photographer gives an agent time to try a few looks, review images along the way, and land on one that fits the brand. Edited files are then returned on a set schedule, with standard delivery inside a few business days and a rush option when a new listing or a personal rebrand is on a deadline.
For brokerages, consistency across the whole office reads as its own kind of professionalism. When every agent is photographed against the same background under the same lighting, the office page looks like one organized brand rather than a collage of mismatched selfies, and later hires can be matched to that same look as the roster grows.
As the regional market keeps agents busy through the season, the studio expects continued demand from individuals and offices refreshing their branding. Formats, group arrangements, and open dates are available through the studio's website.


About JA Headshots JA Headshots is a professional portrait photography studio in Fort Myers, Florida, specializing in headshots for business professionals, executives, corporate teams, attorneys, realtors, healthcare providers, and authors. The studio offers individual sessions, corporate group sessions, virtual headshots, and on-location event photography built around personal branding and corporate presence.

Self-Storage Construction Slowdown Puts Focus on Build Cost Efficiency

ENGLEWOOD, CO - August 05, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
A notable slowdown in self-storage construction activity nationwide is shifting attention among independent developers and investors toward cost efficiency and construction value, as higher financing costs and moderating rental rates make project economics harder to achieve than they were during the sector's pandemic-era boom. Federal Steel Systems, a supplier of engineered steel building packages, said the current environment is prompting more self-storage developers to scrutinize the composition of their building packages before committing to a project.
According to analysis published by StorageCafe in June 2026, approximately 55.4 million square feet of new self-storage space is expected to come online in 2026, a figure that closely mirrors 2025 deliveries but remains well below the boom-era highs of more than 70 million square feet recorded annually in 2018 and 2019. New supply as a share of total inventory has contracted to roughly 2.4 to 2.6 percent, and industry observers have noted that higher construction costs, tighter lending conditions, and localized saturation in Sun Belt markets have all contributed to a more cautious development environment heading into the second half of 2026.
Industry analysts tracking the self-storage sector have noted that the slowdown in new development is expected to benefit existing facility operators over time by limiting additional supply pressure, but that the same financing and cost dynamics are creating meaningful challenges for developers still looking to build. With borrowing costs above recent lows and rental rates flat or declining in many markets, the margin for error on new construction budgets has narrowed considerably, making the cost and completeness of a building package a more consequential variable than it was when rents were rising sharply.
"Self-storage developers today are looking at a very different set of numbers than they were a few years ago," said Nick Guinn, a representative of Federal Steel Systems. "When rents were climbing and money was cheap, a project could absorb a lot of surprises. Now, every line item matters, and developers want to know exactly what they are getting in a building package before they commit. That is where we spend a lot of time with our customers, making sure the package they are buying is complete and that there are no components they will need to source separately after the fact."
Federal Steel Systems supplies engineered steel building packages for single-story mini-storage facilities as well as multi-story and climate-controlled self-storage structures, with each package designed to meet local building code requirements for the project's specific location. The company said its all-inclusive packages are structured to eliminate the need for developers to source doors, insulation, and panel systems from separate vendors after a primary structure contract is signed, a practice it said can result in significant unplanned costs when material prices are elevated or supply timelines are uncertain.
The company noted that permit-ready stamped engineering drawings are included with every package, a detail it said has become more relevant as local permitting timelines have extended in many jurisdictions. For self-storage developers managing a financing window, delays between project approval and the start of construction can affect both costs and lender relationships, and having permit-ready documentation available from the outset of the building process is designed to reduce the administrative gap between project approval and breaking ground.
Federal Steel Systems added that for orders placed for production without delays, the company guarantees the quoted package price through fabrication, giving developers a firm cost figure to carry through the financing and permitting process. For orders held on an approval or permit-contingent basis, the company said it maintains close communication with customers throughout the waiting period so they have a current understanding of market conditions when the order is ready to move to production.
The company said it works with self-storage developers across a range of project sizes and configurations, from straightforward single-story facilities to more complex multi-story builds, and that its team is available to walk customers through accessory options and structural configurations before a purchase order is finalized. Federal Steel Systems said this up-front consultation is intended to ensure that the package a developer receives reflects the actual requirements of their project rather than a baseline specification that requires modification after delivery.
Developers interested in discussing a project can request a quote on the Federal Steel Systems website.

Morocco Travel Gains Popularity as Multi-Destination Trips Draw Visitors Beyond Marrakech to Desert, Mountains, and Coast

August 05, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Morocco's tourism landscape is shifting as more visitors plan trips that span multiple regions of the country rather than limiting themselves to a single city or attraction. Instead of spending an entire vacation in Marrakech or taking a short desert excursion, travelers are booking 10-to-15-day itineraries that connect the Imperial cities of Fes and Marrakech with the Sahara desert, the Atlas Mountains, and the Atlantic coast in a single continuous journey.
The trend toward multi-destination travel reflects a broader change in how visitors approach trips to North Africa. Rather than treating Morocco as a stopover or a short add-on to a European vacation, more travelers are dedicating their full holiday to exploring the country's geographic and cultural diversity. The combination of urban medinas, mountain landscapes, desert camps, and coastal towns within a relatively compact geography makes Morocco unusually well-suited for this type of travel, with driving times between major regions typically ranging from three to six hours
Said, head guide and founder of Morocco Countryside Tours, said the company has seen growing interest in comprehensive itineraries. "A typical request now is for a route that starts in Marrakech, goes through the Atlas Mountains to the desert at Erg Chebbi, then continues to Fes and Chefchaouen before ending at the coast near Essaouira or Agadir. Ten years ago, most visitors booked one or two destinations. Now they want to see the full range of what Morocco has to offer, and they want to do it with a guide who can adjust the plan as they go." His company, which operates with native Berber guides, specializes in the kind of private Morocco tours that can accommodate these multi-region requests.
The company has received more than 800 reviews on third-party travel platforms, with many recent travelers specifically mentioning the value of having a guide who could navigate between regions while providing local context at each stop. The shift toward longer itineraries has also changed how travelers budget for their trips, with many opting for all-inclusive multi-day packages that cover transportation, accommodations, and guide services rather than booking each component separately. This approach simplifies logistics and gives travelers confidence that their route will be smooth even across longer distances between cities.
Morocco's tourism industry has been adapting to support this trend, with private tour operators offering increasingly flexible Berber guides and custom itineraries that can be adjusted based on weather, energy levels, and traveler interests. The country's well-maintained road network between major tourism regions, combined with the availability of quality riads and desert camps along popular routes, has made multi-destination trips more accessible to a broader range of visitors. For travelers seeking a comprehensive Moroccan experience, the multi-region itinerary has become the standard rather than the exception. The trend shows no signs of slowing as Morocco continues to invest in tourism infrastructure and as travelers increasingly seek trips that offer variety and depth rather than single-location stays.


For private tour operators with local expertise, the growing demand for multi-destination itineraries represents an opportunity to showcase the full range of what Morocco has to offer, from the medinas of Fes to the dunes of Erg Chebbi to the fishing ports of the Atlantic coast.

Torkay Event Services Announces Major Website Revamp to Better Serve the Greater Houston Area

August 05, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Torkay Event Services LLC, a trusted name in event rentals serving the greater Houston area, today announced a comprehensive revamp of its website, Torkay Event Services. The new site is scheduled to begin rolling out in phases starting in September 2026, with the core redesign and first wave of planning guides going live first, followed by additional service area pages and content added on a rolling basis through the end of the year, with the full rollout targeted for completion before the start of the spring 2027 wedding season.
The decision to rebuild the site followed an internal review of site traffic and customer inquiries. That review found that a large share of visitors were leaving the current website without requesting a quote, often after spending only a short time on the page, and that mobile visitors, who account for the majority of the site's traffic, were dropping off at a noticeably higher rate than desktop users. Customer service records showed a similar pattern on the phone and by email, with a high volume of incoming questions about topics that basic planning information could answer upfront, such as how many tables a given guest count requires or how far in advance tents need to be booked during peak wedding season. Those findings shaped the priorities for the redesign.

The updated site is being built around several measurable improvements. Page load times are being cut substantially to address the mobile drop off identified in the review. The current multi-step contact form is being replaced with a streamlined quote request tool that will allow customers to get a preliminary estimate in three steps. The photo library is being expanded to several times its current size, replacing stock imagery with photos of actual Torkay Event Services setups so customers can see realistic examples of tents, table arrangements, staging, and lighting before they book. Site navigation is also being restructured so visitors can move from browsing rental categories to submitting a quote request without needing to leave the page they started on.
A central part of the revamp is a new library of planning guides built directly around the questions Torkay Event Services' team hears most often from customers. The first guides going live in September will cover how to estimate rental quantities for different party sizes, what to consider when booking tents and staging for outdoor events, recommended timelines for reserving equipment ahead of peak wedding and holiday seasons, and how to coordinate deliveries and setup on the day of an event. Additional guides addressing corporate event planning, permit and venue considerations for outdoor gatherings, and seasonal booking windows are planned for later phases of the rollout.
Cameron Torkay, owner of Torkay Event Services, said the changes were driven directly by what the company was hearing from customers.
"We looked at how people were actually using our site and talking to our team, and it was clear we were making people work too hard to get simple answers," Torkay said. "This redesign is about cutting that friction out, whether that's how fast a page loads on someone's phone or whether they can find a straight answer about tent sizing without having to call us first."
Alongside the planning guides, the site will include dedicated pages for the specific communities served by Torkay Event Services, giving local customers faster access to information about availability and popular rental packages in their area rather than generic regional content that applies to the entire Houston market.
Torkay added that the rollout timeline was set deliberately to avoid disrupting customers during the company's busiest months.
"We didn't want to launch something new in the middle of wedding season and create confusion," Torkay said. "Starting in September gives us a clean runway, and it means the guides and new features will be fully in place well ahead of next spring, when a lot of our customers start planning."
Once complete, the redesign is expected to give customers a faster path from first visit to booked event, with clearer information available earlier in the process and fewer steps required to get a quote. Torkay Event Services will continue to monitor site performance and customer feedback throughout the rollout and adjust later phases of the content library based on what customers are searching for and asking about most.
Torkay Event Services LLC is an event rental company based in Cypress, Texas, providing tents, tables, chairs, linens, staging, dance floors, and other equipment for weddings, corporate events, and private gatherings across the Houston area.

Max Graphics Expands Services with Professional Boat Wraps for Marine Enthusiasts and Commercial Fleets

Smyrna, Georgia - August 05, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Max Graphics, an Atlanta-based vehicle wrap and graphics installation company, has expanded its service offerings to include custom boat wraps and marine decals for private boat owners and commercial maritime fleets throughout the Atlanta metro area and beyond.
The expansion addresses growing demand from marine enthusiasts and businesses seeking durable, customized vinyl solutions for their vessels. The company now provides marine-grade vinyl wraps designed to withstand harsh marine environments, including exposure to sun, salt spray, and constant water contact. The services encompass a wide range of watercraft, from center console and pontoon boats to bass boats, bay boats, and offshore vessels.

"Boat wraps for the marine market represent a natural extension of our vehicle wrap expertise," said Chris Gross, spokesperson for Max Graphics. "Boat owners are always interested in maintaining their vessels' appearance while protecting the underlying surfaces. Our marine-grade vinyl wraps provide both a great look and practical protection. We provide these boat wraps and decals for personal enjoyment and commercial branding purposes."
Max Graphics boat wraps utilize specialized materials engineered specifically for marine applications. Each wrap undergoes precise measurement and custom fitting to match the exact specifications of individual vessels. The company's technicians apply their extensive experience in vehicle wrapping to ensure proper adhesion and longevity in marine environments. The wraps can incorporate existing branding elements for commercial clients or completely custom designs for private boat owners seeking to personalize their watercraft.
The expansion into marine wrapping complements the company's established portfolio of vehicle and architectural graphics services. Commercial fleet operators can now maintain consistent branding across land and water-based vehicles, while private boat owners gain access to professional-grade customization options previously limited to larger commercial operations.
Beyond full boat wraps, the company also offers marine decals and yacht wrapping services. These options provide flexibility for clients seeking partial coverage or specific design elements without committing to a complete vessel wrap. The company's design team works directly with boat owners to develop custom graphics that reflect individual preferences or corporate branding requirements.
The marine vinyl wraps offer practical benefits beyond aesthetics. The protective layer shields the boat's original finish from UV damage, minor scratches, and environmental wear. This protection can help maintain resale value by preserving the underlying gel coat or paint. Additionally, the wraps can be removed without damaging the original surface, allowing boat owners to update their vessel's appearance or return it to stock condition when desired.
Max Graphics serves the greater Atlanta area and across the United States. The company offers mobile consultation services, allowing technicians to assess boats at their current location, whether at a marina, storage facility, or private residence.


Max Graphics specializes in comprehensive vehicle and architectural graphics solutions, including fleet wraps, commercial truck wraps, business signage, event graphics, and window decals. The company has established itself as a leading graphics installation provider in the United States, serving both commercial and individual clients with custom design and professional installation services.
