Your very own custom t-shirts

If a t-shirt idea has been lurking in your mind for long and is longing for expression, help is at hand. Even if you're creatively challenged, you could still design your own tee. This is because, today, anyone can create a custom t-shirt online.

A typical site offers quick and easy steps to fill up the blank canvas of your tee. This involves selecting a tee, giving or choosing a design and placing the order. Let's see what a typical custom t-shirt site has to offer:

a. Product: Blank tees in numerous styles and price ranges are available at the site. Once you select your style and color, you can either upload you own graphics to create your own design or use thousands of images and hundreds of fonts offered by the site. The site's production team will review each order and recommend design improvements, if necessary. After all, they possess the creative eye! This done, your products are then decorated using high quality screen-printing, embroidery or whatever else you've opted for.

b. Pricing: Most sites are quite transparent about the pricing, but these can vary. The prices are generally based on the quantity, color and the brand of the blank item you select, as also for the screen-printing, the number of colors you use in your design. So, look for the most competitive prices online, where there are no hidden charges and shipping is free. You're sure to find such sites. Word-of-mouth testimonials of friends and colleagues are a great way to choose such sites.

c. Minimums: Some sites stipulate a minimum, that is, you've to order a minimum of six pieces for screen printing or twelve pieces for embroidery and the like. This is basically to make the design cost-effective. However, this can vary and some don't even have this stipulation.

d. Delivery: This varies greatly, as some sites offer a 24 to 48 hour turn around time, while some can ask for as much as fourteen days for delivery.

e. Guarantee: This is important and should be insisted upon. You don't want to end up with a tee that doesn't look like the one you designed! So, look for sites that offer money-back guarantee.

f. Payment: The usual modes of payment are credit or debit cards, checks, purchase orders (generally for institutions, like universities, corporations, and the like).
