I posted a piece on how to do t-shirts a while ago. I deleted it when I realised that a lot of my ideas were wrong, but I think that I can offer some useful advice this time. The template posted here at RB is what I’m using now. If you haven’t worked with it before the simple way to eliminate the white rectangle and red lines is to click on Select – top left – then All, then go to Edit and Cut. That wipes everything off. I have saved the template in that fashion now. I had a lot of trouble with fonts. Everywhere I looked on the net I found instructions on how fonts could be added to the Gimp menu and I couldn’t make any of them work. My final solution was: a – make sure every font I wanted was loaded into my Windows font folder; / b – uninstall Gimp and the GTK Runtime Environment which it requires; / c – reload the latest versions of each, available here. Maybe I just got lucky, but it worked. All fonts now available. I had created another problem for myself by creating my own template, but this wasn’t an issue until recently when RB changed the production method for the T’s. Effectively I had put all my messages on a white background rather than a clear background. / I found the answer on this page, which gives instructions on how to make any colour transparent in Gimp. If you’re starting from scratch in Gimp and want to do a text T, it’s very simple (he said, having banged his head long and hard over this problem). Once you have the template open and prepared as I described earlier, click the bold T (for Text) on the control panel. This will open a box which will show options like fonts, colour – click on each to display the full range – size of text, and alignment. Click on the point of the template where you want the words to appear. This will open a small window – as you type, the words will appear here and also on the template. The template display will create a yellow boundary around your words. I find it easiest to start in the top left corner and then move the text to where I want it by clicking on the four-arrow icon. This should turn your yellow boundary to white, and the text will move as you desire. Hope this helps. PS: I’ve just used the colour to clear technique to create a negative version of my Amaze T shirt, Amaze T2. ADDENDUM: I posted this piece, Programs I Use, in the forums some time ago. I’ll link to it here for your further consideration.

Say the colour. Read the word.
Some brighter versions of my other tee. The font is one i created while experimenting with negative space. enjoy :)
Simple text tee.
Here is everything I’ve learned in my graphic design course so far. Almost everything… The tricky part is my resources have been disagreeing about what names lend themselves to what letters. Ears, for example, occur only on the lowercase g, but are also found on r, f and a, depending on what the climate is like. Feel free to argue about this in a string of entertaining comments! Also, if I’ve spelled anything worng, or if you know any better than I do, please let me know and I will look into fixing it. / PS: this is also an experiment in horizontal halftone! However I’ve cheated and used original image at 30% transparency as a kind of bolster… any thoughts on the output??

I’ve just finished reading Stephenie Meyer’s series Twilight, which I greatly enjoyed. My sister really wanted a Twilight t-shirt but the official ones are really really bad so I figured I’d just make one for her. I have a feeling copyright laws prohibit me from having it for sale though…. hmmm how do I have it viewable but not for sale…
An abstract piece using letter forms from a font i’ve just finished designing. The font uses straight and angled semi translucent lines that are drawn from a 12 point dot grid. If you can’t make out the letters, i used “A R T” in there, which just happen to be my initials ;). Enjoy. Ps. Thanks for the feature! Also see: / Full font set / Font used on a tee
I was watching the movie “The Ultimate Gift” listening to the character played by James Garner talking to his grandson when he said… ‘Learning is a gift… even if pain is your teacher”. As soon as the words had finished coming out of his mouth I honestly said out loud – YES!! Immediately I was blown away by the quote and I wrote it down and thought about its meaning for weeks. I’ve never felt so affected by a sentence before. Upon reflecting this quote I found quite confronting to realise that I spent my twenties doing everything to avoid and “run away” from my emotional pain.. Now in my 30s I’ve realised that pain was essential for me to be a more caring, less-judgemental and forgiving person. Pain seems to show us the truth in others… the truth that all people, no matter what’s on the outside… have a heart capable of breaking on the inside. It gives me great comfort that I can now view the grief of my brothers death as somewhat of a gift to me – rather than nothing but a loss FEATURED IN Prize Challenges GROUP / FEATURED IN Creative Inspirations / FEATURED IN YOU’RE ACCEPTED GROUP / FEATURED IN FIRST THINGS GROUP / FEATURED IN TYPOGRAPHY GROUP / FEATURED IN THE ART OF PAIN GROUP t-shirt available .
