t-shirt

This is an old revision of the document!


Unrelated to wiki. Some notes on getting t-shirts made

Goal: full color t-shirt. Lowish volume (1-20). Focus on quality over cost

Summary:

Vendor T-shirt Print quality Web UI Misc
Cafepress
Vistaprint
TBD

I primarily use Firefox, but switch to Chrome with website issues

CafePress

Summary:

  • Material: Hanes BeefyT, 6.1oz, 100% Cotton
    • FIXME: verify

Very easy to use. Website worked smoothly (Firefox)

Price something like

  • 1-6: $20

Don't like their website

  • Separate username and password login. WTF?
  • Preview showing where t-shirt prints wasn't even on the person
    • Note: full print preview looked as expected
  • Upload image button didn't show up
    • Suspect related to not having flash initially enabled, which caused some sort of glitch
  • Upload image faulty progress bar: counted down from 200% or something like that
  • General website presentation seems rough / needs editing
    • Ex: “Are you looking for a shirt, sweatshirt, hat, or bag? Check out the Change Shirt/Color button to see the many styles and colors available.”
    • The value add is buried in a list of what applies
  • At first I thought it required a login to try it out, but now think I just misunderstood the UI

Above: editing window showing poor centering / faulty print

Above: preview looks okay
