Another disadvantage is that if they a not washed properly, the image can fade. The easiest way to avoid this is to turn the T-Shirt inside out and wash the T-Shirt in cold water with a mild detergent, no bleach or bleach additives or fabric softener. Then hang the T-Shirt to dry.

Printing's final step is the easiest of all. Once the printing of T-shirts are done, the T-shirts are then placed in a dryer. The heat produced by these dryers is twice than that of an oven. This step is very important as the ink printed onto the T-shirt has to dry completely and the heat helps in drying quickly.

If you are not using a software, it is always better to take a picture of your hand-made design and upload the picture onto the computer. It is very important to remove a few prints of the designs on regular paper so as to see how it would actually appear on the T-shirt. This will give you an idea about your design and the changes which would have to be made.

Colours that you use: Make sure that the colours used complement each other. A good way to do this, in case you use Adobe, is to turn on global colours. This will not only ensure a fine picture quality, it will save you a lot of time.

Make sure you wear clothes depending on the people you expect to meet. Funny t-shirts can be of various kinds: Family Jokes, Adult Humour, Sex Jokes etc. You don't want to wear an Adult joke t-shirt to a kids only party!

Let's take a look at screen printing. Screen printing is the method of developing an image on to a screen, most generally a nylon screen nowadays, and then placing ink through the screen on to a T shirt. This is the old school tried and true method that some purists think is the only way to go about making a cool t shirt. Well, it is a great method, but not nearly the only method available. Screen printing can be relatively expensive if you get a 4 color machine with the rotating arms that looks like a partially amputated octopus. You have to also have supplies on hand such as a dryer, ink, screens, and an assortment of different size and color of t shirts. This could set you back around $1500 for up front costs.

The reasons why custom t-shirts have caught on so fast are thus clear, and we can't even pass this off as a temporary teenage fad because everyone seems to be in on this new fashion trend, even the corporate moguls and the housewives. This is also because t-shirts have a very flexible appeal. They are comfortable to wear for everyone, regardless of what social standing, age, or gender you belong to.
