What’s a fast, quick, easy way to get a design onto a shirt by using an iron? (I’ll pick a best answer!)?

Posted on February 1st, 2010 by admin in online t shirt design | 1 Comment »

i’m supposed to iron on this design onto a white shirt for my dance class uniform, but i lost it and i’m in trouble. i can find the design online, but is it true that you can just buy special paper and print the design on it, and then iron it on and it will work? please tell me the fastest quickest CHEAPEST way..i need to get this done! thanks (:

Yes. You can buy the iron-on transfer paper at Walmart and most similar stores or craft stores. You just put it in your printer. I used to actually draw designs with crayon and iron onto clothing. This also works but not if you have a specific thing you need to use for your dance performance.

Do you think it is a good idea to make/design shirts to raise money for your choice of charity?

i know i like to make shirts with my own kind of design on it (i hand paint them with fabric paint) and i think that selling them for a profit and donating the money to charity is a good idea. what do you think?

This could be your calling, and it doesnt hurt to try. We all want the same outcome, yet our options and gifts are different. Good luck on your project.

Is it illegal to sell t-shirt transfers of trademarked designs?

Posted on February 1st, 2010 by admin in shirt designs | 5 Comments »

There’s some guy on ebay selling designs on t-shirt transfers for like $5. They are designs of like video games like a resident evil picture that is clearly from the box minus the words. Is that legal or would it be like copyrighted or something? I was wondering because I had once wanted to sell those but figured it was illegal.
Also, do you know if it’s illegal to draw a picture of a trademarked design and sell it?

It is illegal if you do not have express permission to do so. You can obtain licensing rights to reproduce logos, covers, etc., but it can be very expensive.

Design a t-shirt online?

Posted on January 28th, 2010 by admin in online t shirt design | 5 Comments »

I’m looking at designing a t-shirt for when I go abroad to Majorca with a large group. The only thing is, I’ve looked online and a lot of these websites are really expensive. Has anyone got a cheap website to use?

I don’t want people that have just googled it to answer this, I want people who have actually designed a t-shirt or know of a friend who has done it.

Just email him. He is really good!

How to design shirts using Photoshop CS4?

Posted on January 28th, 2010 by admin in design shirts | 1 Comment »

So im 15 and my dream job would be designing t-shirts and having my own line…so i need to find a website that gives me a run down of how a person designs shirts, how do they start? with a photo? draw the design with a tablet? i need alot of information…

you just use whatever you have.
a graphic, a photo, a drawing.
usually you design your shirt then send the design to a tshirt manufacturing company.

here is a shirt i photoshoped up for a band.

What are some good designs for a Student Council shirt in high school?

Posted on January 28th, 2010 by admin in shirt designs | 1 Comment »

Hello yahooers! okay. i am having a problem. I want to have a part in my high school student council. Currently, we are trying to design our shirts. What are some designs that i should throw out? (Note: I am the only boy in the student council) I just feel nervous about my current design and that the girls will not like the idea and just try to pick something they like

If you want to have your design pass the scrutiny, come up with two. Make the first one so appalling that your second one–the one you really want to pass–will look awesome by comparison.

I suggest for your first one, put a couple Care-Bears surrounded by Tulips with, of course, the Student Council Name above it.

For the second, I would play it safe and just try some big block letters–arched…throw in a star burst in the background.

How to make your own T-shirt design?

Posted on January 19th, 2010 by admin in design your own shirt | 1 Comment »

My friend’s birthday is coming up, and I want to make them a T-shirt with a design I made on it, but I don’t know how exactly. I made the design on the computer and I’m planning on printing it off on cardstock and using it as a stencil, but what paint should I use? Do I buy fabric spray paint, or the regular old paints and a paint brush? How long will the design stay on the shirt, because I want it to be sort of like a screen print (I looked into screen printing but nobody will make me just one shirt).
Thanks for the help!
:)

I think fabric paint and paint brushes would be best. Depending on the kind of fabric paint you use it can stay on there any where from 2 years to forever.Wal-mart sells a really cheap kind, so I wouldn’t suggest that. Instead check out Plaid stores or Michales or Hobby Lobby.

Best of luck hope this helps :)
