Photoshop Contest Forum Index - General Discussion - Help! Best custom t-shirt makers? - Reply to topic

Hey guys, I need to get a couple t-shirts made. I need simple t-shirts with a large, multi-color image with gradients on the back. I am looking for decent-quality shirts with high-quality printing.

So far I've found a few different sites online that seem to have good stuff. It is important to get a manufacturer that doesn't use cheap printing techniques, I need these to be really nice. I'm not ordering bulk, only a few.

I was hoping that some of you have had similar needs in the past and could provide me with information pertaining to what website you used and if they turned out nicely. I don't want to spend money and end up with some half-assed result.

The local school teams use a local shop because they do small batches. Haven't seen any gradient work by them though. Confused

I decided to go with Spreadshirt. They seem to have the most competent design interface.

I just produce a few shirts some weeks ago. At some newer digital textile printers you can print digital white. That gives you great possibilities.



Check the video at: http://www.embcon.de/Brother_GT-782/index.htm gives U a good overlook of the way they are produced.

I think U can upload PNGs with transparent backgrounds at spreadshirt to get the same effect. I produced my shirts with a local German textile printer office, so that I'am not 100% sure about the output at spreadshirt.

Cheers BL

Yup, I believe the shirt I ordered from Spreadshirt will be made using the digital printing process. At least, it had better be... Evil or Very Mad
