Design and preview your own tee shirt 

(where i create my stuffs)

If you think you need to hire a professional for the T shirt designs, you're are dead wrong! With almost everything can be done online, tee shirt design has no exception.

By just sitting in front of your PC, you have the control on every particulars for your custom T-shirt. Design, preview, and print according to your color, image designs, as well as text styles preferences.

So where can you do all these stuffs?
Shirt City's where I hang around the most.

Some might suggest Cafe Press or T Shirt Logo - but I love Shirt City user's interface the most. You can upload your logo or graphic designs or even use their designers' artwork to personalized your T shirt design plus preview instantaneously.

And hey, did I mentioned Shirt City do more than just T Shirt? See the thong photo above? That's my creation around that website. Have fun.

"Custom T shirt should be fun, unique, and always ready to put a smile on everyone's face!"

A good custom tee should be... 

(condition for a good custom tee)

Custom tee shirts might not be fashion designer's favorites - they are not branded stuffs, but custom tees do have their own characteristics as well...


  • Funny, ready to put a smile on your face anytime.
  • Naugthy, make fun of the rest or even yourself.
  • Simple, the message should be direct and easy to understand.
  • Cheap, anything goes beyond $20 is a big 'NO'.
  • Personalized, the objective of having custom tee is to be different, right?

More design ideas 

(Things I got elsewhere from the WWW)

More ideas to get started huh? Why not search around the World Wide Web and see how others' doing? Here's some of the examples I found online, perhaps you can use them as your design reference...

Funny text line

Simple but funny - guess this is the most popular kind of custom tee.

Love message

Father's Day, Valentine's Day, or even on your grandma's birthday - a custom T shirt's good to bring out your love message.

Cartoons

Simple comics will do fine... so let's start sketching! :)

Logos & sign boards

My kind of tees - have fun with global cooperations or well known signboard.

Okie, ready to get started?
