WindDancer This is a rough first 3 colour stab, it needs tidying up A lot depends on the company and how many colours etc But if this is OK I can tidy up and add lettering and you can get a quote for 3 colour embroidery or printing.

But have done a bit more work and this is how it may look on a garment background:

It all depends on the process and the prices and how many colours we have. If they can print in 256 colours you could have more lifelike: If it's embroidery or a a basic process it will need to be limited in colours and thus stylized like the first ones.

I like the photo one. I've been looking at the 'photo on t-shirt' websites, just need a few more details.
Does anyone have any suggestions to add, for the wording or anything?

Photo is nicer. I can tidy the edges up a lot more if we go down that route. Or I can do in 16/32/64/128 colours if needed.
With 3 or 4 colours I actually did it manually drawing outlines and floodfill as computer transfer did not get it right, but it takes someone with more artistic skills than me to capture things like the eyes accurately. And even then the end result when they embroider can be disappointing as the stitching does not always pick up the pixels.

Just got back on line after a long absence! I like the actual photo in number 8. The cheapest method would be a photo on a white T-shirt, and I also really like the surrounding colour you have done I can get them done for about £7.99 locally on Fruit of the Loom T's, including lady fit. Maybe cheaper on web. What do others think? What do you think Fire(I only wear black)Fox? Anyone know of a good supplier?

Anyone know of a good supplier? You could try Caroline's T Shirts in Southampton. www.carolinestshirts.com/I ordered some Ts for work on Monday afternoon and they will be delivered tomorrow They use a vinyl transfer method which is really quick and not expensive. I'm paying £7 per T plus VAT. You could all have different colours if you don't all want the same.

I'll go for a long sleeve black, navy or purple unisex hoodie from www.carolinestshirts.com/. Wouldn't wear a white T, WindDancer you are right! What is the minimum order number for vinyl, Millie? I don't mind paying extra for a one off or a hoodie.

With the photo they said it was thermo imaging (so you can iron the logo), but it didn't print white. So if white needed, it came from the fabric the print was applied to.

So what would you like from me WD... I can give you a jpeg tidied up from the original photo with a cut out of Corrie on a white background or a gif on a transparent background - with lettering added - what do they prefer?

I don't mind paying extra for a one off or a hoodie. Don't think they have a minimum order Vern as each one is done individually anyway. Contact them and see what they say but I'm sure they will do whatever you want. Mine arrived yesterday and I'm really pleased with them.
