Ok I am looking for:
- blank cup/mug
which
- is not white
- can have a design printed/dyed on it
So far the only ways I've found of getting this is to pretend to be a company and order 100+ mugs with my design. Finding a non-white cup that can be customised and bought in quantities under 50 is proving awkward.

I'm not really sure how one would find them... but I'd imagine your best bet would be art supply stores or something similar. The kind of stuff middle school art teachers buy.
[edit] Oh, you mean a company that prints custom mugs... no idea then.

The only definition of coffe I can find is the plural of "framework at the top of a ship's mast."

yourdesign.co.uk have a black mug which when heated fades to white revealing a printed photo but its not dishwasher safe and I want a dark background.
They have a silver mug that would be perfect but tis out of stock =( and its not dishwasher safe either.

Coffe is nicer than coffee
But yes any cup or mug shaped receptacle of hot liquids that will not scare little children or get me fired that can be customized, is not white, and whose design will not fade in a dish washer.

Sorry it s German
oh, and that´s a Ramp, so i may aswell.. well, i know two girls i lend a Cup to. They returned it recently, i may as well send it right over to you.
Or you could club IamaCup over the Head, clone him and take the unconcies clones to a Tatooshop. That´s what i did last time..
PS: Don´t forget to send a Doppelgänger of Cuppy back to the Cupboard. Otherwise...
PS: It´s quite hard to get Cups who are dishwash resistant, even if you order them in marketing company Numbers, you still have to pay a higher Price for burned in Mono-Colours...
Let´s say it, Cups are extremely difficult to print on Stuff, if you want staying Stuff.

Im not particularly bothered about wether the design is photographic or stencilled on etc as long as I design it and it has a dark background or any background other than white, which is proving hard to find.

Just take a Potteryclass, disturb them all a little bit, for example form little clayhumans in Pain, and put them together to become a Ncromancers-Coffecup,
Or make a Mug, the open wide Mouth the Opening- or how about a Mug with a inscribed Blog in Cuneiform script, and don´t listen to Panda who will post after me and attempt to convert you to put Flowers, Kittens and other evil poison on your cup.
PS: You could do a Pornrelief, or add some Flair by imprinting the History of Coffee, from the Slavemarkets, to the starving free Ethopian Farmers today.. Or imprint Goatse on the Insidebottom, making shure nobody will ever drink from your cup twice (Although you will suffer loses by the hands of the Suprised)
Or imagine what strange Forms you could go, and how difficult they would be to clean, creating a unqiue Taste you will not find twice on earth.

Hey, I think that Halloween story accessories like strange looking goblets and blobfish look neat.
Those blobfish look just like creatures from outer space or something from a Halloween tale.
Having an appreciation for beautiful things does not mean that you can't appreciate art or freaky looking organisms.

That Dopefish-thing ... oh, this Picture.. imagine that as a Mug.. the Faces, while you fill this on a Coffemachine in a Office...
And some Halloween Items are nice, a shame that Tradition hasn´t already complete it´s way around the world (especially to Europe)
