I like the first one, the second one has too dark a gradient and the text doesn't fit and i don't like the third one.

I agree with Bob here. I like the first one a lot. Would look nice on a t-shirt. The second and the third are just to hard to imagine them to be used for any particular purpose.

all of these with the exception of the last are going to be extremly costly to put on a tshirt.

T-shirts tend to be vectored + a certain number of colors. with all of these shades added up your going to have one expensive tshirt. not rly cost effective. the firstd esign is cool but the others ened work.

This is what the first design would look like (Assuming you wanted the background taken out and the shirt to be blue) on a regular tshirt. This could probably be done using an iron on graphic, which is sort of expensive, but not as expensive as if you wanted an embroidered design (which in this case would not work).

I tried the other two (the third might need a bit of retouching and then it would work) the second did not fair well on the shirt medium, mostly because of the gradient on the background, would make it pretty wierd to look at.

I'd probably wear that, if I had something over it :D

lol ok well ill keep workin on them, i just started makin t-shirt designs not too long ago :p

the second and third designs were my first two, so i was kind of expecting a negative response from them two

First is definitely the best.

I like the first one to best. However, I"m going to disagree with the others and say that, if you took the third design, and kept just the lower right portion, and put it on the lower left of a white shirt, it wouldn't look too bad...

good job man, good job...

gracias :) ill keep workin on them and postin as i go along :D

I will give you some pointers for t-shirt graphics.


Unless you know someone who is great at silk screening, or willing to pay, they will not silk screen within usually 1 inch of any seems. So, for the bottom design, it would just end abruptly, and not look as good, same with the sides, looking at it head on, you would expect to see it wrap around, but it doesn't.

Limit your colors. Most places online have the cost broken up into the t-shirt, the screen for printing, and the colors. Now, you will have to pay for another screen for each color. So, lets say it was $15 for a t-shirt, $10 per screen, and $0.2 per color. If you have 4 colors, that ends up at roughly $55.8 per shirt, with a minimum of usualy 8 - 12.

One last note. When you send it, if it is a raster image, most places will want it to be several thousand pixels both tall and wide. Vector images, they like the vector file so that they can just open that, print the right size and no distortion at all.

Hope the was helpful.

ahh i gotcha, that really helps and ill keep that in mind for my next designs, thanks so much pet :D:D

I like the first one the most, but the last one isnt bad at all!

This forum is meant to grow, so if you have any more questions, do not be afraid to ask, we have a fairly knowledgeable user base, so it should get answered.

i like the 3rd one. if the bottom right corner wraps around the shirt to the back then it would look good. the 2nd one.....the pen tool coming from the logo kills it. the 1st one is pretty good ^_^ GG CHRIS

for the dimensions, you could still make it like 1000x800 but make the dpi really high right?
