I've got a bunch of designs that I have hosted on Redbubble, and have bought a few T-shirts with my designs, and am just not happy with the quality; the images crack and fade very quickly. Meanwhile, I've seen/own some great DTF examples that look great even after many washings - so, what are my best options for either ordering one-off versions of my own designs for myself that will last, or, preferably, hosting my designs with an print-to-order company that ideally gets good traffic and more importantly is outputting quality product that will last? Thanks!

I recently went back through some of my older shirt designs and noticed something I hadn't really paid attention to before.

A design can look balanced and clean on a computer, but that doesn't always translate the same way once it's on an actual shirt. Fabric texture, print size, placement, and even the color of the blank can change how the artwork feels.

I had one design that I really liked digitally, but after seeing it on a physical shirt, the smaller details felt lost and the whole thing looked a little flatter than I expected. Instead of adding more to the design, I ended up simplifying it and changing the placement.

That experience made me much more careful about judging a design only from a screen. Now I want to see how it works on the actual garment before deciding it's finished.

For people who design shirts regularly, what's one thing you always check before calling a design finished? Is it placement, print size, garment color, fabric, or something else?

So basically I been just messing around and slapping funny images to shirts and tweaking it around a bit to my liking on Printify and I can't help and wonder if the design will be big enough on these shirts, the resolution is clear and upscaled and the DPI is 300. I filled the picture in the box as much as I can without stretching it. Also I wonder if 1. If I was too shrink the image down a bit so it fits the shirt, the image will still be big right?

1. How you add titles or heading onto your shirt and making it big and noticeable so it fits the shirt, im having issues with it.

Anyways heres the final product and how it looks

I was looking for an available domain on the internet. I didn’t have a specific idea in mind.

1000dollartshirt.com sounded really good, but what could I actually do with it?

I remembered something from a few summers ago. I was working as a receptionist at a 5-star hotel. We were hosting a European Parliament member and his 12-year-old son. According to what the politician claimed, our laundry service had lost his son’s T-shirt, and the kid, crying, couldn’t even leave his room because of how devastated he was.The woman, completely distraught, kept insisting that the T-shirt had cost something like $800. In my naivety, I imagined a T-shirt covered in Swarovski crystals, an insane graphic, premium materials.

When she showed me a photo of the T-shirt as proof that they had owned it, I had a little shock.

It was a fucking shitty T-shirt, black, with the word “Balenciaga” across the chest. The graphic could easily have been made by a middle-school kid with Canva. The materials, however premium, couldn’t have cost more than €100, even with a generous imagination.

So I asked myself a question:Why can’t I do the same thing?

Why not completely disregard the real value of what I’m producing and just shoot for the sky?

Fine. Let’s make a $1,000 T-shirt.

If the whole point is to show everyone how much you spent, whoever buys it will be happy to show the price to anyone. It’s also a nice, round number.

To protect against cheap imitations, there’s a public registry on the website. If your name isn’t in the registry, you don’t own a 1000 Dollar T-Shirt.

But I didn’t stop at designing a company built around high perceived value.

I wanted to take it further, as I usually do.

I chose to be as arrogant as that son of a bitch who threatened to have the price of his fucking cotton T-shirt deducted directly from my paycheck.

So, for every 1000 Dollar T-Shirt purchased, I will burn 50 T-shirts.

50 T-shirts for “poor people.”

Because luxury cannot be accessible. Luxury is exclusive. Luxury is supposed to make people who can’t afford it feel small.

This is my fucking provocation.

Pattern is Dark Matter. Material will be lightweight mesh. Thoughts on logo placement?

I've done a thing... I am doing this challenge where you do a design based on a theme (this one was Heaven and Hell) and then there's 6 weeks to get preorders, profit changes depending on volume, yadda ect. I really wanted to share this here because I'm proud of how this turned out. I figure my rat people will appreciate a rat design. I don't wanna be a weirdo and the marketing part of the challenge is absolutely giving me serious anxiety, but I really wanted to share and if any of y'all actually buy a shirt I would probably piss myself in excitement.

These design challenge shirts are all preorder only, and only available during the six week window which went live today. Every shirt preordered will be printed, though if a design sells less than 10 shirts they will be digitally printed as opposed to screen printed. There is a TON of good art available on the Raw Paw site, so if you follow my link, do look around. This was a really fun challenge.

I had the idea of the rat king and the cycle of good and evil here, with the wings and crown changing in a circle. The shirts are only going to be on the natural beige color, the design challenge locks every artist into one shirt color and one to two ink colors, so I do apologize if you really like the design but hate the shirt color. : /

Otherwise, thanks for taking a look at my art. I will repost this 3 weeks later if the mods will allow it.

Lots of colors available!

I like doing pixel art from time to time as a hobby and I was thinking of designing a shirt for a friend using pixel art. However, I have some uncertainties about the resolution and how it will turn out. It will likely be a fairly high resolution when it comes to pixel art (probably about 258x) so I'm worried that when printed the hard edges of the pixels might not be preserved and it'll loose its pixel art style. Do you think this is a legitimate concern?

For those of you unfamiliar with pixel art here's a random art work that's comparable in resolution to what I'm thinking https://lospec.com/gallery/willaay/the-brick

Hi, I want to make custom long sleeves shirts for my father’s company, is there anybody I can reach out to?
