i wanted to start make some custom t shirts but i wasnt sure how to get my pics on there. i know that you can get special paper, print it out and iron it on but that low quality. im looking for a better way to get my pics on the shirt.

i do have a sewing machine..not sure about the embroidery thing. but i just want to start with screen prints first. then move on to the bigger stuff...then the next MARK ECKO!
the hanes idea is something i might do, but its low quality. im looking for another option that isnt expensive but better quality.

Well if you don't want to have a company do it for you, don't want to purchase an embroidery attachment, and don't want to use an iron on, the only way you can print a logo on a T-shirt is to either paint it, borrow a friends screen printer, or purchase a screen printing worktable ($300 +).
^^^ What he said.
There's no "easy home solution" to make your own t-shirts except iron-on, which sucks as it fades and cracks after a few washes.
Silkscreening is permanent and much better looking but you're limited in the types of colors.
If you're going to run batches of custom shirts I'd recommend you go through a local screenprinting shop or use cafepress.

Go to the library (holy shyt, what a thought!) and check out a book on scren printing. You can make most everything you need yourself. That is if you really want to learn.
well, its not that i dont want to buy an emroidery thing..i just have no clue what it is. that screen table sounds like a good idea, im going to have to check that out
I have a heat transfer t shirt business.(basically a big iron on) And I have a company make all my transfers and I order all my shirts from another place combine 'em together and *boom* t-shirt business. the heat transfer machine was a bit over $1k and the transfers vary by quantity and type as with the shirts
