My 2nd attempt.



As you can see on this one, I've included the URL in the circle. Threw in the old slogan. Threw a little 2 tone in with the font. And tried to put some more emphasis on the x-s man.

I really like this one

If you guys want a good silk screened shirt you'll need to limit your designs to a very small number of colors. I'd say 4 colors at most but try to stay at 2.

full colors with gradients only really work with iron-ons and they tends to look like crap after a short while.

i think the big design on the front is ugly. i say just the little guy. and the design on the back.

That may be the case, there is always the option of finding a company who specialise in printing bespoke t-shirts to do it. Over here there is a site which lets you import and move your images where you want on a mock-up copy, then you submit your order and they'll pro print it for you.

After all, quality costs. You're better off getting it done properly once, than doing it badly 5 times.

i agree i think it will look better simple.

Just have "hack it crack it mod it" on the front instead of that whole big thang!

People are spending far too much time and effort talking about the techniques and methods of production. This isn't official anything, it's just an effort to get a simple working design that at worst.. will get printed on my photo printer (a la the first post in this thread) and at best.. can be something really special and worthy of moving forward into something the whole scene can wear with pride.

I'm still leaning toward one of zebra's designs I think.. but I'm gald to see some others take an interest in this.

Something else I have found.. is that there are services that can take the picture and do cross-stitch on denim etc.

I've seen pics turned into cross stich before and it can be quite pleasing.. but that's usually done by hand manually. Apparently the process can be computer automated, and done quickly and cheaply.

Some else I was thinking.. anyone got a new look for XS MAN ? It definitely time we updated it..

I guess it must be said, that if you submit a design in this thread, XS will hold and retain all rights to the artwork and submissions.
