That is the question… sometimes they can make all the difference in the world.  We are referring to whether you should distress t-shirt designs or leave them as they are.  The difference it can make can really go either way.  It can be the final touch on a t-shirt design that makes it look great or an additional step that should never be done.

So how do you determine whether you should use a distressed filter on your artwork?  We think it has everything to do with the intended audience and the content of the design.  If you’re going for the vintage look, or the design is supposed to look old-school, then they distressed filter is definitely the way to go.  If you are looking for your colors to pop off the shirt and want to design to be more contemporary, then a distressed look wouldn’t be appropriate.

Let us show you an example of what we’re talking about.  This first design could represent a number of things, but for these purposes let’s just say they were given out for a primary school graduation.  This is what it would look like:

That design would look great and really pop off some screen printed tee shirts.  But now let’s say that design is for a summer camp with high school students attending.  These kids would find it much cooler at their age to have the distressed, vintage look.  So here is the same design with a distressed overlay:

Ultimately, we will leave that decision up to you of whether or not to use the distressed filter.  We just want you to know it’s available when you need it!

We just got finished printing a T-shirt on the digital t-shirt printing side that really blew us away with creativity.  One of the things we pride ourselves in, is giving you an online t-shirt designer with all the tools to create top-notch t-shirt designs.  We are not satisfied with just regular clipart and simple fonts that limits you to designs that won’t impress your friends.  It makes us proud when we look through the hundreds of tee shirt designs that we receive a day and some just completely stand out.

It is every bit of our job to continue improving the experience you have when designing t-shirts at You Design It.  As we have mentioned before, some of the t-shirt designs speak for themselves.  This next design that we’re about to show you is definitely one that is good for digital t-shirt printing at a small quantity because it has so many colors.

It obviously came from some funky designer who is all about keeping the funk.  There was a lot of artwork rotating, coloring, and resizing to accomplish this design:

Great job!

After we complete in order of screen printed t-shirts or embroidered hats, we don’t stay in our customers face asking for more time or information.  We want to let our work speak for itself and encourage you to come back just by giving you exactly what you wanted.  Our goal is to impress you so much that you want to tell us about it instead of us asking for a good quote.

This was the case from an order place by a nice lady named Anna, who needed some custom t-shirts in a short timeframe.  Here’s the e-mail we just received from her after she received her t-shirts:

“Thank you sooooo  much for the wonderful T-shirts! The kids loved them! And even though I ordered them a little late, you were able to complete the order AND ship them in time for the game. That was only 8 days from order placement until the arrival of the T-shirts! I will definitely use your company whenever I want team shirts again!”

Thanks again for that Anna, you couldn’t have made us happier! 

Anytime you are planning a group trip there’s always the excitement of what is to come. It’s almost always guaranteed that there will be some good memories to follow. One of the most common items that we sell are custom hats with embroidery. One of the best things about purchasing embroidered hats is the fact that they are adjustable in size, and pretty much fit everyone. That is a great thing when you are not sure of everyone’s size that will be attending your trip.

Our embroidered hats common in many different colors and styles, and it is definitely an item that we can turn around quick. Our pricing for custom baseball caps is very low and the quality like anything else we do is very high.

Here’s a picture of some hats that we recently embroidered for a group trip:

It’s definitely that time of year that camps are calling us every day to get custom t-shirt designs and printed t-shirts for the upcoming camp season.  As we are preparing to open up our artwork catalog.  We would like to encourage you to create your custom t-shirts in our online t-shirt designer.  It is very common for a camp to have a particular theme for the year, and we would love to help you out with that.

One of the biggest trends, we have seen when it comes to printed apparel for camps is the ability to resell the items at a profit.  It is a great way to secure funding and get your camp name out there for future campers.  And remember, the general rule is that the cooler the t-shirts are, the more campers you’ll have next year. 

There are three cities that we would like to highlight in this post because we have been frequently sending printed t-shirts to these areas.  As with all of our standard orders we ship everywhere in the contiguous United States for free and these cities are no exception.  For Atlanta, we have been referring to it as Hotlanta around the office, because they have been on fire with ordering so much.

Jacksonville, Florida and Biloxi Mississippi have also been sending in a steady stream of orders for custom designed t-shirts this year.  If you are in those areas and looking for screen printed tee shirts then look no further.
