You have some flexibility when designing your layout for mugs.  Although the default crop box in the cart is fairly square, if you select "cropping: None", we'll do our best to fit the image around the mug if it's a landscape-oriented image.

UPDATED 12/22/2008 with new dimensions for all mugs:
Currently the lab cannot wrap handle-to-handle, but they are pretty close on the 15oz white mug if you use an image with a 3.5x8.5 aspect ratio.  For an 11oz white mug, one side of the image will still be a few inches away from the handle, but your best bet is a 3x7 aspect ratio.  Ditto with the 11oz black mug, though this same aspect ratio ends up wrapping somewhat further around the mug than in the 11 oz white mug.

For a full wrap-around image, you'll need to use images of the following dimensions:

11 oz white mug: 2640 x 1140
An example of a 3x7 aspect ratio image:  1500px tall by 3500 px wide.


15 oz white mug: 2550 x 1080 
h6. Here's a properly sized image for maximum wrapping:

11 oz black mug: 2625 x 1125

You can also use larger images, that keep the same ratio. For example a 3150 x 1440 image is just fine for an 11oz white mug because it keeps the 2.1875:1 ratio of width to height .
h4. Here is the size of the cropping area in the shopping cart:

 FORGIVE OUR LAG, PLEASE:

The following images use the olde dimensions, but still illustrate the layout of the mugs nicely.  Until we remake these images, please see above specs for full wrap dimensions. 

 You can use the "full wraparound" - like this: !sunset-1.jpg!
 
  Another example here, showing how the main part of the image can be positioned on different sides of the mug: !sunset-2.jpg!

Here, the entire photo will print:

I just took a crop from an image, and put it on a canvas that was 1275 by 450 pixels, then added the text in photoshop.  The photo will wrap around the whole mug :-)
