There have been a TON of questions about the transfers. Although I've only used the light transfer paper, I've carefully read all the responses so I'd like to summerize it all...trying to be helpful.

There are two types of transfer paper...light transfer paper for light colored shirts and dark transfer paper for placing images on darker shirts.

So far I haven't heard anything about price equating with quality. Alot of people use avery, I myself have used this brand...it works fine. You can buy it at wal-mart, office supply stores, and ebay.

Make sure you print your image in reverse so that words will not be backwards in the end product. Some imaging programs will have a menu where you can choose "transfer" or "mirror image". I have the option in both printshop 15 and in the printer menu for my Lexmark. Look under options or under the help menu.

Practice printing it on plain paper to make sure the size and COLORS are what you expect. You may also want to do a test iron-on with some scrap fabric so as not to waste precious tshirts.

Beware that white spaces will print blank with light transfer paper. Meaning, if you put donald duck on a pink shirt with light paper, he will have pink feathers. Most non-commercial printers won't print white. Of course, if you're determined NOT to use dark paper and you are using a nonwhite light colored shirt, a print store may be able to do the printing for you. Does anyone know if Ginkos has white ink in their printers? However, you can avoid this by using dark paper. Some people have complained about the texture. I've heard it called "rubbery". Remember, though, even commercially printed dark tees tend to have a slick/rubber feel to them. If you really want a darker/brighter tshirt (especially if you have kids and white is NOT an option) don't automatically discount the dark transfer b/c you're afraid of the texture. I imagine that if you're doing a very large image it could make a large area of your shirt stiff which could lead to some discomfort. With dark transfer paper, white AND clear spaces will be white. If this bothers you I have a suggestion. An earlier poster created an image of tinkerbell on a white background but she was putting the image on a lime green shirt. She found a color on her pallette that printed in a near matching shade and made the background that color. You could see a slight rectangular shape on the shirt where the edges of the transfer were but it was such a close color match, I think it looked great.

As for tshirt quality, I bought a package of white undershirts from the mens department at walmart one year....avoid doing this for women...bras show thru! The only time shirts have to be 100% cotton is if you're tie-dying. I think any blend can be used for transfers. MAKE SURE TO WASH IT FIRST. You don't want the shirt to shrink after you've done the tranfer.

Follow the tranfer sheet directions to the letter. If directions are lacking, I'd consider purchasing a different brand. Generic directions: USE A HARD SURFACE. I wouldn't do it on a glass table but glass top stoves seem to work well. I personally prefer and ironing board (call me old fashioned). Use the hottest setting....and press hard! Put your weight into it...but don't break the stove. I like using my ironing board on the floor. After a few minutes I test the corner to see if it pulls away easily. If not I put it down and run the iron over it for a few more minutes. If it peels off easily but you hit a spot that won't budge...just reheat it. I've seen a question about ironing in circles or corner to corner...just do a section at a time...top to bottom or bottom to top...doesn't matter where you start as long as you do each secition in order (as in, do one corner, then the diagonal corner then the middle and you might wind up with a gap and therefore a bubble or wrinkle.) I think once you've thouroghly heated the whole thing, its safe to do circles.

Ok..think I've covered it all. Let me know if I left anything out. :flower:

I do have reservations for Poly concierge in October. :cool1: The ME folks should be able to deliver us to correct resort. I think it would be great fun to go up to the ME desk and say "guess where we're headed...". :rotfl2: Only problem is I've already got a Dash shirt for DS and we're planning on MGM on arrival day so I want DS to see Incredibles with Dash shirt. Guess he'll be changing at the resort before we head out to the parks.
lovesdumbo - OT but I think I read on the Boards that the Incredibles were leaving MGM so Chicken Little could come in at the end of the animation tour. You may want to try and track them down.

Beiji--can you help me get a higher resolution for printing? Don't know why it looks so fuzzy after I save the changes--any help you could offer would be appreciated. TIA

Aw, that is so sweet!!! :goodvibes

Mine too! He just doesn't get it at all. I don't get how he can watch news or business chanel all day long (he's a stay at home dad) and I'm the one with the business degree/masters in economics.
Anyways...LOVE your new sig. You should go to www.v50.net to get the days/hour/minute countdown clock.

You've got the Poly and a SAHD! You go. . .you're already rich and famous! (I am a SAHM myself with an MBA and my BIL is a SAHD with a BA seems more common these days) How about letting me borrow the shirts then? :rotfl:

Thanks for the clock info. . .I always wondered where those came from.

[MidNite]

I just ordered some photos from photobox - proofs of my wedding invitations - and I had some spare credit so I just ordered MidNite's first 3d image - the one with Out of this world on? It came out really clear and crisp and looked just like a postcard! I'm thinking of printing a batch before I go and writing people's addresses on the back - then writing a message while I'm in WDW and posting them...

It might work with some of the other images that everyone has created too.

hope you don't mind Midnite :0)
I don't mind a bit. Use them however you wish to!

Okay... I love all your designs, but I was determined to make all my own - just to have the joy of my family wearing something I created, but this one I am going to have to use!! I really like all the 3-d designs, but I had resisted until I saw this. Thank you for all your hard work and creativity.

[Mrs. Squirrel]

There are two types of transfer paper...light transfer paper for light colored shirts and dark transfer paper for placing images on darker shirts.
Fantastic Tips! Last night I saw transfer paper at Sam's 14.99 for 20 sheets. Said it was for light, cotton blend shirts-cold transfer. Do you know what a cold transfer is? Does this refer to not having to use an iron? I didn't get them, because I wasn't sure what this ment and the package had no explaination.

:rotfl2: I wish on the rich part...(never want to be famous). My DH was earning what it would have cost for daycare and I was earning more than him. It does help that we were married for 15+ years before we had children so we saved then. We also don't do much at home so we like to enjoy our vacation. My August is a totally unplanned spur of the moment thing and will be "somewhat" cheap. $330 for air for me & DS and $200 for room plus food. I really think this time with DS is important.

Back OT---the Avery paper tells you to let it cool before you remove the paper-so you don't have to burn your fingers taking the paper off-maybe that is what they mean by "cold transfer"? Can't imagine no iron. I did notice in a flyer that BJ's has them too. On the avery paper I cut around my image and the "border" that I left-without anything printed on it-is a bit cream looking. You can see it if you look real close at the white T but not from a distance.

Midnight-hate to ask because it really is great the way it is but could you use that All Star Movies logo that triplefigs found rather than the generic All Star logo on the All Star Movies design?

Tracy-great designs! How fun for your kids to wear shirts they designed!

[DisneyFreq]

Sorry Julia&Nicksmom...didn't realize you'd done a transfer tips post (page 96). I'm still trying to catch up! I imagine we hit the same point in our reading when we realize it needed to be summerized!

what's that saying "great minds think alike"?

[triplefigs]

Oh that is so good! And so sweet. Love it, love it!

Thanks! That's quite a compliment coming from you. I thought it was very sweet to. Wondering if I should change the words to "And they lived happily ever after..."

Yeah, sorry about it being late. I couldn't find the logos for All Stars until today. J&N mom and I were helping MidNite out last pm looking for images. Found a good site today that had them all, plus the All Star Music photo.

[PoohHappens]

OK all you creative types, I need some help, I can get a #10 baby out of a 5foot tall woman but this I cannot do (I am an L&D nurse). I need some suggestions and help. I am sure this has been answered before, but I cannot find the answers. So I am going to number them and cross my fingers.

1. Where do you find CLEAR clip art????
2. What programs are you using?
3. What are the best quality transferrs to use?

My DH is an IT guy so with his help I can figure out something if I have the answers to these questions.
Also for anyone who has the time or some cute suggestions I am looking to make a few shirts. One just for our family vacation--I think I can handle that one with all the great stuff you have provided. I also want to make one for myself for my birthday. We are going to be in WDW for my birthday. Waht is really fun is that I am exactly the same age as WDW. Two really great things happened the 1st week of October 1971, WDW opens-1st I was born 5th. Just thought it was funny and that my mom would too. she is traveling with us. Third we went 10 years ago with my exteded family and after the fact found out that my DBil wanted to ride Dumbo and we did not. He remembers seeing pictures of it as a kid and thinking that was the thing to do. So I would really like to make him a Dumbo or die shirt or something to that effect. I am not expecting anyone to waste their time on my dreams I was just wondering if anyone had any great suggestions. Also I am still looking for answers to the first three questions.

[geetey]

:earseek: :earseek: :earseek: Do you know when? Don't you think they'd put them up somewhere? The Incredibles are still pretty popular I would think.

I have some friend who just returned on July 28 and she said the area is set up for Chicken Little now and she didn't know where they had moved the Incredibles to. When we were there in June, Mr and Mrs Incredible were the 2 characters we saw at the end of the Animation tour. Sorry. Hopefully Guest Services can help you find the Incredibles!

Hi MidNite...just looked at your website.
Altho I don't know nuttin about making no transfers, your 3 D designs are truly incredible!!!! KUDOS to the artist

[daisylove]

MidNite is there any chance of getting one of your fabulous 3D mickey heads with the characters in costume inside it. I think J&Nmom had a great one with the characters in the villians costumes. If you get to a place with nothing to do... :maleficen
You guys are so great to creatively challenged folks like me. Thanks!

I know this is about t-shirts, but will someone help me with an invitation. We have a breakfast booked at CRT on August 23 at 10:20 and I have three daughters Ashley, 11, Bryanna 4, and Zoe 2. I might add that this is really all for Bryanna who just loves Cinderella. But I want the invitation to say something about Cinderella is inviting them to her castle to be breakfast and than also and that her friend snow white had an extra dress and wanted Bryanna to have it in case she wanted to dress like a princess also. Bryanna was just in Awe of the pay it forward post-card, that I just think this will be unbelievable.

I might add Ashley just thinks her mother is crazy :crazy:

There's a CM named Angie Belle who often posts on this board...she said the Incredibles should start appearing in Tomorrowland at MK soon, since they were displaced by Chicken Little.

Just wanted to jump in on this thread. I plan on making some shirts now for our February vacation. I love the "Do you Believe" with Tinkerbell design. I will be using that one. Also looking forward to seeing a Saratoga Springs Resort one seeing as we bought into there. I found a t-shirt site, not sure if its been mentioned or not. They even have lime green ones. The prices are pretty good too. http://www.blankshirtstore.com/?idcust=234544666

How about, my daughters are princesses so I guess that makes me a queen!
Sorry, I read that in another DISer's siggie...thought it was really cute. princess:

I downloaded the free trial of photoimpact 10. Took me days and days of trying and asking questions on this board. Took my kids two minutes. Kids now a days know more about this kind of stuff than I ever could. By the way the way she did the background for the prince one was by going into the tab that says effects, then going to lighting and from their clicking on the kaleidoscope button and choosing a design from there. She added the graphics and text and then added stars from the special effects or particle gallery (its one of them).

I can work on the Cinderella invite -

since it was brought up - my kids get a Mickey note every day at Disney with an invitation for the day's activities or a good night from a character and there is always a little treat with them - the last time I went I made about 20 of them - does anyone want to see them?

[BluOrchid2]

Kate don't you dare go running off on us!!! :teeth: I'm sure that we can come up with more design requests to keep you busy and make you feel wanted around here. :) For instance, I've been really wracking my brain to come up with another good shirt design for my 14 yo son. It's so hard you know to get boys that age to be excited about Disney b/c it's so NOT cool. Okay, so he's really into German stuff....did exceptionally well in his 8th grade German class and won the class award for it last year. He's planning on 4 more years of it in H.S. When he plays Xbox, he plays with guys in Germany and speaks IN GERMAN to them over the headset. So anyway, he is really excited about spending his whole day in Epcot, hanging out with the German CM's who work there and talking to them all day. Of course he's hoping that some of them will be cute little German GIRLS. LOL. So that's why I was wanting the Mickey Mouse in Lederhosen, which I did get a pretty good image emailed to me, but now I don't know what to do with it. German flag colors are red, yellow, and black...there are lots of nice pictures of the German pavilion in Epcot....I just don't know how to tie it all together to make a nice shirt for him. :shrug: any ideas? anyone? Bueller? Bueller? :teeth:

[Mrs. Squirrel]

How about, my daughters are princesses so I guess that makes me a queen!
Sorry, I read that in another DISer's siggie...thought it was really cute. princess:
On a similar vein, was out shopping and saw this phrase at a local airbrush t-shirt shop. Thought it would make a unique WDW shirt! It had a beautifully done text of the word Princess (pink w/silver accents and stars) with a large black X over the top of it. Underneath it read. . .Forget Princess, I want to be Queen! The word Queen was of course larger and even more beautifully done.

By the way, PoohHappens is the funniest username!!! :rotfl:

[Mrs. Squirrel]

WOW!!! I haven't been around all day and LOOK what you guys have done!!

It appears my work here is done!!!

Don't even think about it! That's the great fun of this thread. . .all the different ideas and design styles. Keep 'em coming and thanks for sharing! :cheer2:

[Steamboat Marti]

Here is a photo of one of the five t-shirts I made for my husband's 40th birthday. Each shirt had three different photos of my husband when he was a baby. Since we went with his parents, my FIL had all pictures of him and my husband, my MIL had only her and my husband... you get the idea. Now let's hope that the loading of my first picture goes easier than the iron ons did!!!

That's us getting ready to be the grand marshals on his 40th birthday... his only birthday wish. Thank goodness for a lot of praying and a little pixie dust, and his dream did come true.

:Pinkbounc I can work on the Cinderella invite -

since it was brought up - my kids get a Mickey note every day at Disney with an invitation for the day's activities or a good night from a character and there is always a little treat with them - the last time I went I made about 20 of them - does anyone want to see them?

Yes yEs YES!!! :Pinkbounc

[PNO4TE]

Thanks for the tip about uncompressing the graphics in AOL to enable me to save the designs as JPEGs. It worked like a charm! I figured the problem was with AOL but had no idea where to start (and no time to start looking :confused3 ). Thanks a bunch!! :banana:

Terrific idea! Those shirts like really high quality. Do you know where you got them?

[MidNite]

1. Where do you find CLEAR clip art????

try www.magicalears.com

2. What programs are you using?

Photoshop and Swift 3D

3. What are the best quality transferrs to use?

This, I dunno. :goodvibes

[MidNite]

When I actually do tees, I will let you know. But for the time being, here are the mousekeeping envelopes... They aren't this low res, but I didn't want to bombard the place.

Hi Midnite! :wave2:

here are the cards - the quality is not so good b/c I cut and pasted them into a jpeg just to give you guys an idea - if you want them higher quality - I can work on them over the next couple of days

[Danauk]

J and N's Mom, I love your firework design on your site (where wishes come true). Could you add New Years Eve 2005 underneeth it for me please. I would love to wear in where ever we end up on New Years Eve (we haven't decided exactly what to do yet - suggestions welcome from anyone.)
Thank you so much

I'd love both princess ones and the mickey mouse one, because we are also doing dinner with him.

This just makes my day!

Kate - you have me in tears already this morning!!! I *loved* the card designs.....do you have them accessible on the internet anywhere yet? Rather than bother you with specific card requests, I could just grab the ones I want. What size card is the finished version? I have never done cards like these before, but I think Aurora would really be thrilled to get them. She's really into getting "mail" now....she writes letters back and forth with her Grandma who lives across the state. And you are so sweet to offer to work on the German design for my son, too. I will email you the image of Mickey in his Lederhosen, thank you so much.

[lmartin2711]

I am also in tears this morning!!!!! Thanks for sharing those cards. My trip isn't until 12/06 and I already have a long t-shirt file started. Now I will have to start on morning and evening cards for the kids for everyday. Thanks for sharing your creative ideas with me. My husband doesn't understand why I am sitting here in tears.

[lmartin2711]

OOOPS....guess I need to work on my ticker........sorry

I didn't have much time yesterday, so I only made two new Mickey heads. And someone asked me for a better quality Dis green one, so here it is.

[DisneyFreq]

Not to get OT, but, for the mousekeeping envelopes, how much $ do you generally leave? I researched on "proper tipping" and most of the advice I found was $1/day in less expensive hotels (staying at all-stars). I was still planning on leaving $2/day b/c I am going to ask mousekeeping to hide some "treats from tinkerbell" in the room each day. (read that tip on another thread...it cuts down on the "i wants" if they know there is something waiting for them in the hotel room....also no kicking and screaming over the mid day break!)

I professionally clean condos in the summertime. Most ppl won't leave a tip, so I have to say I appreciate any amount of $. I've even gotten excited over finding quarters in the couch cusions. :rotfl2: What frustrates me about condos is that most people "live" in them for about a week and there is no maid service DURING their stay...and very few of them will clean while they're there unless, say, they run out of clean cups/towels. Yet no tip. In addition to basic maid services (sheets/towels changed, bathrooms scrubbed, carpet vacuumed) I often had to do ALL the dishes, clean spills out of the fridge and burner pans (shrimp juice, ukk!) and scrape congealed food off the dining table. When my kids were babies and we went to a resturaunt and they made a big mess, I always tipped extra b/c I knew I was making more work for them then the average customer. OH well...done griping now. :crazy:

[MidNite]

I try to leave $1 per person per night. But, I really think it's just personal discretion and finances. :flower:

[lovesdumbo]

What size card is the finished version? I have never done cards like these before, but I think Aurora would really be thrilled to get them.
I'm sure Kate will tell you what she did but if I were going to make them I would use card stock and make them 3 1/2 x 5 so that I could just print them from my photo program (I use PictureIt! by microsoft) and they have a template to print four 3 1/2 x 5 photos on a page. Or you could print two 5 x6 or 5x7 cards to a page.

Love the cards by the way!

I preprinted the cards - it was a great icebreaker with the characters and they LOVED that their pictures were on the cards - we took some blank ones for characters we didn't expect to see and I printed them once I got home

I printed them 6 up on an 8x10 - using word

[lmartin2711]

The scrapbook for autographs is another great idea. I love scrapbooking so that just added another "to do " for me.

[PoohHappens]

Triplefigs, thank you for the Dumbo pattern, wow you are quick, I hope that did not take too much of your time. I didn't mean you had to do one.
Midnite, thank you for answering my questions, I have started to find some good clip art. I usuallyprint up and itinerary for our trip that I would love to add some of the clip art.

Here is my next question, I have contacted a friend of mine that I knowwas a graphic designer before her SAHM life. She has photoshop-yeah!!!!!!! So if I get together with her and show her this stuff will she know how o download it and hlp me make someshirts and cutomize a few things??????? She said she would help me, I just do not want to look stupid when she does or ask her to do something completely unreasonable. Thanks.

I had oher plans for our trip name but it may become operation dumbo now. ;) You would think a 40 something man would get over it, but he really wants to ride dumbo. We saw no point because it was an hour wait for a lame ride and he did not speak up. My DH said we should print that on a pink shirt and make him wear it. :Pinkbounc

[patmacd]

Kate -
I absolutely LOVE the scrapbook pages you did for Julia's birthday! I'm leaving in 7 days and hardly have time to get laundry done & pack but I'm going to have to start making scrapbook pages now! You are just so talented! I'm jealous!

Glad you like it. If you want me to change anything let me know. Oh, and JULIA and NICK's MOM had a cute shirt looking for uncle donald with a spy glass. That might be cute for Dumbo too. She could just put Dumbo in the middle of the spy glass. If you like her design better, she could put the same words on the shirt that I did. I know she'd be happy to help too.

[Steamboat Marti]

Midnite - since I don't know how to quote something from a previous quote.... you asked where I got these shirts because they looked like high quality....

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a236/Steamboat123/DSC01949.jpg


All of our shirts came from Wal Mart, but my shirt (the one that you see the full back on) is not 100% cotton. It has a little spandex in it and it is from the "Just Your Size" section. I was worried about the spandex, but it was not problem. I have already washed the shirts and they faded a little, but not much. Overall I was quite happy.

[THESCHULTZFIVE]

I had the same problem. Do you use AOL? If so, AOL automatically compresses graphics files to enhance speed (I did not come up with this, I found it on a troubleshooting website so if it is not the exact explaination, please no flames!) :blush: I guess that's where the .art comes from. You have to go into AOL's Settings. If you have 9.0, view by category. Under Customize AOL click view all. Scroll down to How AOL Works and click on Browser Settings. Change the default to Never Compress Graphics. Once the change takes place and you right click on a image, you should see other graphic save options.

Hope this helps!
You don't know how you have just helped me. I could not figure out what the problem was and you solved it for me. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You

[Danauk]

Midnite, I love the new designs, especially the 2 beach club ones. I will wear those on my trip at Christmas.

MidNite - I am totally FREAKIN out over how cool your resort designs are!!!

Last night I was busy stealin, (is it stealin if you put it out there for all of us? :goodvibes ), some really cool stuff from yours and Julia&Nicks sites. You guys are so good to give your time and web space for all of us.

I uses MdiNites HM-MNSSHHP logo for my commando planning folder, and then one of J&Ns The Gang-MNSSHP for the packet for my mom!!!

I LOVED the Beach Club and Boardwalk. I am waitlisted for both, but currently have my ressie at SSR, so I can't wait to see your SSR.

Also, the Dolphin and GF are so spectacular that it makes me want to go stay there. DH LLLUUUVVVSSSS the Mission Space 3-d. WOWOWOW

Okay, enough worship. :worship: :worship:

[Dimk]

Midnite - Is there a Swan Resort in the works??? Pretty please and thank you. No hurry. :flower:

[mousiemom]

Where do u get the pages? Did u have them sign the autographs @ a character breakfast? I do a disney scrapbook every yr. and I love this!!! Too Cute. Anymore ideas send them my way please.
Thanks

[LoriDee]

I did it, I did it!!!! :cheer2: I finished my first t-shirt design. I created a shirt for my DS's 10th Birthday. I figured he could where it to school and to his birthday party.

I borrowed the idea from Julia & Nicks Mom by using characters from finding Nemo. And I borrowed the idea for the badge from DisneyFreq. Thank you so much.

I know that the information for posting pictures to this thread has been explained before. I'd appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction. I'd like to pay it forward for all the help.

Excuse OT but, Beiji- I see you'll be at MVMCP on 12/20. We'll be there for our first ever. I'll be wearing your lime green Mickey on my sleeve. :cool1:

Thanks so much everyone.

I preprinted the cards - it was a great icebreaker with the characters and they LOVED that their pictures were on the cards - we took some blank ones for characters we didn't expect to see and I printed them once I got home
Please please please tell us how you did this. What size are the pages? Did you just carry them loosely to have them signed, or what? Is it a Creative Memories book? How many did you make? One for every character, that sure would be a lot! You have great ideas!

[triplefigs]

OMG That is GREAT!!!!!!!! Could I impose on you to post it without a name??? My DD6 is of course a princess but I always joke that I must be one of the evil queens. Gets her so mad as only a 6 yr old can get. I would love to have that on a shirt. I already have the black caps WDW sells with princess for her and Queen(with the evil queens pic) for me. Oh Thank you Thank you!!! :maleficen (now you know why I love this smilie so much)

Actually, I just tweaked it AGAIN :rotfl: Here it is with no name and a few more Villains! Just open it in Pain or Photo Impact to insert your own name under Ursula's hand.

Midnite - Is there a Swan Resort in the works??? Pretty please and thank you. No hurry. :flower:

I'm going to be doing them all :crazy2: Basically, in alphabetical order.

[daisylove]

Thank you Triplefigs it looks great.!!

Midnite do you think when you are done with the ones you are doing now (if that happens you busy girl!) that maybe you could do the 3d Mickey head with the other parks in it. Epcot, MGM & AK as there is already a castle one?

[MidNite]

Yeppers!

Also, I relinked all the Customized so anyone who wants one can download it.

[Mrs. Squirrel]

Thanks for the tip about uncompressing the graphics in AOL to enable me to save the designs as JPEGs. It worked like a charm! I figured the problem was with AOL but had no idea where to start (and no time to start looking :confused3 ). Thanks a bunch!! :banana:
You are most welcome! I am just paying it forward. I have learned soooooo much new techie stuff from fellow DISers! As I learn, my signature grows!! :earboy2:

[Mrs. Squirrel]

I had other plans for our trip name but it may become operation dumbo now. ;) You would think a 40 something man would get over it, but he really wants to ride dumbo. We saw no point because it was an hour wait for a lame ride and he did not speak up. My DH said we should print that on a pink shirt and make him wear it. :Pinkbounc
That was lol funny! :rotfl2:

[Mrs. Squirrel]

You don't know how you have just helped me. I could not figure out what the problem was and you solved it for me. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You
You are welcome too! My DH will laugh when I show him these nice comments. . .that I helped someone with a computer question! I have about a 15 second window of patience with computers before :badpc: so I feel your frustration!!!

[Mrs. Squirrel]

I LOVED the Beach Club and Boardwalk. I am waitlisted for both, but currently have my ressie at SSR, so I can't wait to see your SSR.
For the acronym challenged, what resort does SSR stand for? What do you mean you're on a waitlist?

Julia & Nicks Mom-fantastic idea on the daily cards. How old were your kids when you first used this idea? Would an 18 mo. get anything out of it?

Karebear1
Minnie Mouse Mom-thank you for the clipart request (see, you helped back already :) ) and the response post.

[kadaten]

For the acronym challenged, what resort does SSR stand for? What do you mean you're on a waitlist?

SSR = Saratoga Springs Resort

Waitlisted most likely means she's a DVC (Disney Vacation Club) owner and while she has reservations at SSR, she REALLY wants to be at Beach Club or Boardwalk, so she's asked to be put on the waitlists there, just in case anything comes available. :)

[MommyBoo!]

I just sent you an email

also - since I know you are all the types of moms who would LOVE this - this is Julia's autograph book:

I'm sure someone sorted out the graphics filter a few pages back - are you using AOL?

I hadn't even paid attention to this post, because at the time I didn't have the problem and I don't have AOL. I went back and tried to use what they said on mine (comcast), but I still can't figure it out. Oh, well, if anyone can help...
:badpc: :badpc: :badpc:

[GoofyDisney]

Katie - Thanks for the interpretation! All was true and correct!!!

It takes anywhere from 30 minutes to 5 hours. :sunny:

I am guessing Tink and the Pixie Dust bottle would be the 5 hour one. ;)

[julia & nicks mom]

I printed the scrapbook cards on a 6x6 piece of paper before I left - with the names and pictures

I carried them around with me in a plastic baggie with sharpies - I took them everywhere -once we got a signature it stayed in the room -

when I got home I then made the photo part with my digital pictures and printed them on the computer

Julia looks at it everyday

this last trip - I made the cards 4x6 and bought a Disney album that holds 4x6 photos - I put the card before the pictures of them signing them - this was the cheaper and easier route to go - but I LOVE the other one more - so for this trip we are going back to the 6x6 pages - I also bought a small clipboard for the pages - this helped the characters sign the pages

I used to sell them on ebay and have a program set up to merge the characters together with the names but the first time I did it - it took forever to find all the clipart - but so worth it!!! The characters also just loved the pages - they definatley increase character interaction!!

for the cards - I used them last year for the first time - Nick was one and Julia 3 - Nick may not have appreciated the cards - but he liked the presents!! :earboy2: and they will go in our scrapbook - notice I said will - I can do the computer stuff no problem - it is the scrapbooking I can't seem to sit down and do!

[Beiji]

I did it, I did it!!!! :cheer2: I finished my first t-shirt design. I created a shirt for my DS's 10th Birthday. I figured he could where it to school and to his birthday party.

I borrowed the idea from Julia & Nicks Mom by using characters from finding Nemo. And I borrowed the idea for the badge from DisneyFreq. Thank you so much.

I know that the information for posting pictures to this thread has been explained before. I'd appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction. I'd like to pay it forward for all the help.

Excuse OT but, Beiji- I see you'll be at MVMCP on 12/20. We'll be there for our first ever. I'll be wearing your lime green Mickey on my sleeve. :cool1:

Thanks so much everyone.

Congrats on finishing your first shirt! And that's so cool that you'll be at MVMCP with Mickey on your sleeve. Will it have your screen name on it? I'll probably have an "It's my birthday" pin on and maybe a Diser pin I've been working on.

[triplefigs]

triplefigs...LOVE your villian design! :maleficen

Thanks, but the credit goes to J&N's Mom. :worship: She made the original, I just added a few more Villains to the shirt. It's her design, not mine. I'm just good at "tweaking"! ;)

Thanks for the info. I think I may try this as my DD3 was afraid of the characters last year. She says she wants to get an autograph book this time like her big brother did, but I don't know, I think she still might be afraid. Maybe this will give her incentive to go up to them. Brilliant idea.

[DisneyFreq]

I agree with you LoriDee.........I actually keep this reduced on the bottom of my screen and open and refresh it a couple of times an hour just to be sure I don't miss anything........I'M ADDICTED!!!

LOL....thats exactly what I do...leave it on my tool bar and pull it up every few hours to refresh and read a couple of pages!

It definately breaks the ice - Julia isn't afraid of the characters (except the villians) but Genie was a little intimidating to her - but there was NO WAY she was going to leave without his autograph - it gave her the courage to talk to him!

If you plan on selling them on eBay any time in the near future, let me know!!! Just email me your eBay user name so I can check out your auctions. I'd be very interested in buying one for dd since I know there is no way I could find the time to do all of that and I think it is such an amazing keepsake.

[DisneyFreq]

Excuse me if I GUSH but...

JULIA AND NICKS MOM.....THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! I love, love, love (did I say love yet?) the autograph book idea. My daughter has been returning every trip with an original disney autograph book thats not only full, but ratty. I put stickers of the characters in them b/c she couldn't read (well, now she can) and she loved to look at the autographs but couldn't remember which belonged to who. I've seen some scrapbooks where the scrappers ripped out autographs and added them to pages. Although I've been looking for a way to combine the two, I couldn't bear to take something that belongs to my daughter and tear it up. I really want something she can keep for herself and this is the PERFECT solution. I was also wondering if getting the autographs would help my son get over his fear of characters. The kid is SCARILY brave...he'll jump off anything and he's going nuts over the fact that he's tall enough to ride the rockin roller coaster this trip. However he won't approach the characters! (as of last year at least). He claims he's ready to "give mickey a hug" and I'm hoping this book will help him follow thru. I plan to do one for both of them. Oh and you answered all my questions...I was wondering about the clip board part..cardstock is pretty stiff but not that stiff...and the baggies are also an excellent idea. "Patrick, Your genius is showing." :banana:

[bethbuchall]

This is the shirt I designed for ds's birthday last year. I thought I did well until I start seeing the shirts here! I am getting some great ideas for dd's birthday trip next year. You are all so talented!!!

I've never posted an image before, so I hope this works...

http://photobucket.com/albums/a190/bethbuchall/?action=view&current=MilesDisBdayshirt.jpg

By the way, this shirt didn't get a lot of attention except from Peter Pan who met us at the end of the Family Magic Tour. He loved the shirt and was thrilled that he and Tink were on it. I think there are two reasons the shirt didn't attract a lot of attention: 1. it is a little too busy and the birthday message doesn't really catch your eye, 2. he had his hair done with blue gel and pixie dust that morning at the MK barbershop, and that really got everyone's attention.

ETA: I guess you have to click on the link to see it...not sure what I did wrong, but at least it's accessible.

Thanks, Julia & Nick's Mom!!! Have any idea what I did wrong? It's scary that I used to actually be a programmer (in my former life 14 years ago!), and now I can't do anything!

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the autograph album, and I hope you don't mind if I make a version for dd's 13th b-day next year. We made our own albums for the last trip (except for the then 13 y.o. ds who was too cool for an autograph album...until we got there, that is! We bought one for him practically first thing).

This is the best thread ever!

when you post pictures you have to put the

location of picture (which is what you had)

photobucket actually gives it to you under the thumbnail

[julia & nicks mom]

I just want to let everyone know -

I am sharing my ideas with you here b/c they make my family's trips SO magical - did you all see the pictures of Julia riding the tea cups with Belle? My eyes tear up when we watch the opening of the Magic Kingdom and when I see my kids having an awesome time - it is the BEST feeling in the world

I wish everyone could experience that!! and if I can help your family get that magic - I want to!

so please feel free to use any of my ideas - that is why I post them! tweek them whatever - I am flattered that you love my ideas!!

I posted a few posts ago that I would make pages for someone - I felt bad doiong this b/c this has never been my intent - while I am willing to and really don't charge much beyond my costs - I am really happy to just help you all do this!!

So, to make sure I understand how you did the autograph book.....you printed the pages with the 'Happy Birthday' and the date at the bottom along with a picture (clipart) of the character?? Then took along some without the clipart and added it after you got home??

How much would you charge?? ;) I know that doesn't sound like much to do but I know finding the clipart and figureing out which characters you might see......I think I would rather pay!!

I posted on page 120 how she made the other one and for this one I did it and I just started off with purple as my background, added tinkerbell, then the text and then added two different star backgrounds.

Kate,
On behalf of my family - we THANK YOU! I'm new to this website and you have already designed my dd Melanie a princess t-shirt graphic for her 6th birthday and I've already requested a Lilo & Stitch from you for her birthday dinner at O'hanas. We are leaving in 7 days and I want this to be such a super special birthday for her and I'm very grateful to you for helping me to add these extra special touches that will do that.
Gratefully,
Patty

Bridgette just informed me for the prince jon background I earlier posted that you go to effects, then lighting but you actually go from effects to fills and textures, then kaleidoscope and then do as I said on my earlier post.

Ok, now that I have buttered you up (kidding)....in your spare time :rotfl: :rolleyes: do you think you might be able to do a 3-D for Pop Centry??? Huh?, huh?, please, please, please!!!! :bitelip:

Oh my gosh, I absolutely love this one too!! I am really gonna have to learn how to get these great designs everyone is making onto a shirt. Of course, I am going to buy a heck of a lot of shirts!!!!

A natural blue....too funny!!!

[bjakmom]

WOW - this thread keeps getting better and better each time I check in !!!! :earseek: In addition to a daily Birthday trip tshirt for DNeph, I'll now be putting together a birthday autograph book and daily notes !!! How much 'magic' can I make with your help ?!! :love:

In thanking you all I want to share what our 'magical' trips mean to us - I have been lucky enough to have taken many trips to WDW while raising my own kids - almost all grown now, last one with 1 foot out the door. But in the last year the trips my little nephew and I have taken to WDW have given us great joy and something to focus on while grieving the tragic loss of his dad - it just means soooo much to me to have a 'happy place' that we can share where we can laugh and play and I can spoil him rotten with surprises that make him feel happy and special (and give my sis a little time to herself) - so thanks to all of you for sharing your wonderful ideas, work and love of Disney - you are truly 'passing it on' and we are covered in pixie dust! :wizard:

MidNite - LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the Boardwalk design - thanks !!!

J&Nsmom - I'll be PMing you about the autograph cards - they are awesome! !!

[daisylove]

Someone, somewhere, in this thread posted a design that had the characters in costume in front of the Huanted Mansion with the words "Trick or treatin with the mouse"

Could whoever made that post a larger version? My DD has fallen in love with it but the one I saved comes out very small. Thanks!!!!!

[triplefigs]

My favorite shirt I've made. I'm a romantic...

julia & nicks mom and triplefigs.......Is there anyway either/both of you could post just the pic of Tinkerbell from your pictures?? My DD would love both of them since they have great pixie dust with her. TIA

The picture I put Tink in (the DL design) already had that "dust stripe". I just added Tink. I used this site.

Go 1 hour in any direction all kinds of stuff to do.
1 way it's the Ocean.
1 way it's the Mountains.
1 way it's the desert.
I grew up in Illinois.
Flat, to cold in winter, to hot in Summer.
It does rain most of the Winter.
I'll take that anytime over snow.
If they are moving to the Portland area.
I would compare it to like Chicago.
Always things going on.

[triplefigs]

Yeah for the Oregonians!! We all muist live relatively close! Technically, I'm in Happy Valley, next door to Clackamas.

Triplefigs.... I love that last one you put up. Soooooo cute!

Thanks! this is really addictive!

No kidding!!! I went to dinner with my husband tonight and when we got home I rushed to the computer to see what wonderful things were created in my absence, and found 3 new pages. Makes me dread next week when I go on vacation for 15 days. I'm going to have so much catching up to do! Whatever you do, don't stop! I love going through all the wonderful designs and looking enviously at the posts of all you people who are so creative and talented. :teeth:

Seriously, though, I hope you all know how much pixie dust and magic you are sending out over the internet. You truly are good fairies!

[triplefigs]

Made these for my triplets. I bet they'd get noticed in these bright shirts!

Thank you triplefigs.
Tinkerbell looks great.
Your fast. :moped:

Yes Davids-Coco it is a long way from WDW.
Southwest isn't a bad flight.
1 stop & no plane change.
6 & 1/2 hours not to bad.

We have an Alaska Airlines flight. Up to Seattle and then nonstop to MCO. 6 hours... mostly first class too :). Not too bad. Plus by going to Seattle, we miss the "big" line.

[geetey]

triplefigs,
Where did you find those large pics of the castle? I would love the black and white one without anything in front of it. It's beautiful!

[momof2OH]

Here's another one I did. I love the castle in this picture.

Oh that's beautiful!

Is that one of Peter Ellenshaw's castle designs? GORGEOUS!

[momof2OH]

Thanks. Honestly, I'm not sure. I just did a search for castle pics and found it.

[momof2OH]

How are you making hte cool borders? Which program are you using? they both look great!

[momof2OH]

The borders and most everything else is done with PhotoImpact. I do do a few things in Printmaster.

[momof2OH]

triplefigs... I found this pic while doing some searching and thought maybe you could use it.

[Mrs. Squirrel]

Beiji-Love, Love,Love yout new sig!!! It would look great either as a t design alone or as an add on to a sleeve.

Disney store has the cutest green mickey head antennae balls. Not lime green, but close. They are blank, just the shape. I personalized mine with a black sharpie. Can you tell I am addicted?

[Mrs. Squirrel]

Sorry, off topic, but had to share. DH Mr. Moose just walked by and told me to "Get a life!"

(Remember, he has never been to Disney.) When we first planned the trip he asked me. . .it's just a theme park, right?

Wha ha ha ha. Silly human! You will be assimilated. . .resistance is futile. :teleport:

[DisneyFreq]

Thanks triplefigs for those two pics of the castle. I couldn't figure out how to google the image...clipart just gave me cartoons. :bitelip:

And for all you oregonians..you should start a DIS club. I've seen a couple ppl on here from the panhandle...panama city, fort walton beach, pensacola, but its a pretty wide spread. It's so nice to have this site b/c my husband gets so fed up. The other day he said "you won't let up, will you?" NOPE, so you might as well steel yourself!

[JessetheCowgirl]

Wow! These designs are just incredible!!!!

I can't decide what to do for our family----we are taking my mom and my grandma in March (first trip for both of them!!!!).

I thought about "4 generations of princesses" or something for grandma, mom, me, and DD, but that leaves out my DH and our 2 sons.

Any ideas???

[Danauk]

I agree that this thread is amazing. I have already got 13 designs I want to print and my trip isn't until December!! I have decided that as I don't know what the weather will be like then I will put some designs on vest tops, some on regular t-shirts and some on long sleeved t-shirts. That way I can layer and wear more than one at once!!

[Disneygrl36]

Triplefigs,
I love, love, love your So This is Love shirt.
I used this song to walk down the aisle too, so it has a very special place in my heart.
I must make myself this shirt!!!!
Can I copy from the board or do I need to get the design from you?
MMMMMMMM, MMMMMMMM, MMMMMMMMM, MMMMMMMM
I love it!!!!

Mrs. S., so glad you noticed! That's a great idea to put it on a sleeve. I could put "Yes, I am a DISer" on the other sleeve.

[lovesdumbo]

Does anyone have a list of "common" characters you can find while in WDW? There must be a link, right...mabey I'll go check out Deb's site.

Triplefigs, love your design. Thought I'd mention, Disneyland is commonly written as a single word....at least on all the merchandise! It's funny how big the DL castle looks in pictures!!

Here's a great site to try for characters by Diser HugsForEeyore. She lists all the characters she's ever found, where and how easy/difficult they are to find:

That B&W shot of the castle is so gorgeous- I hope you don't mind I made a "people- free" version! Apologies to anyone whose family members were erased... ;) .

Wha ha ha ha. Silly human! You will be assimilated. . .resistance is futile. :teleport:

:rotfl2: We were watching TV one day and saw a comercial for some local amusement park and my DH asked why we didn't just go there and I told him "I don't like amusement parks." He just doesn't get that Disney is NOT an amusement park! My DH is a little slow and just started getting it on our last trip (his 3rd, 2nd with our kids). He actually said while waiting for the town car to pick us up to go back to the airport "this is kinda sad". I'm hopeful this time he'll really get it.

So it looks like our dates in August overlap. Do you have a T-shirt itinerary worked out yet? I'm still working on mine:
Sunday 8/28 arrive MCO 10:30am all wearing ASMovies T, go to MGM, Sci Fi @ 2:15

Monday 8/29 MK, 8:10am CP, me Tink, DS Buzz-To Disney T, DFriend's DH Thanks Walt T (to wear on Keys to the Kingdom tour).

Tuesday 8/30 Epcot (no T's yet....) Maybe Mission Mickey for DFriend's DH

Wednesday 8/31 we have a 6:30 flight home. Not sure if we'll do AK or go back to another park. Maybe Mickey fireworks for DFriend's DH.

me, DS, and DFriend have AP's. She wants to buy non hopping passes for her DH and DS(15-who probably won't wear any T I could make for him). Her DH is SOOOOO excited about this trip and I think the T's will be a nice way for me to thank him for letting her go on 4 trips with us while he stayed home.

Well, if you're going to erase them.... could you erase them in the color version too? I don't know how to do that... YET! :rotfl:Glad you liked it. I thought it came out brilliantly in b&w!

Melanie,

You should be able to copy it directly from the board. If not, PM me and I'll email it to you. I thought it turned out great. That's one of my favorite songs too!

[JnEsWDWMom]

Just wanted to let you know I'm still here and loving all the beautiful designs. :wave: Triplefigs, the black and white castle/Cinderella one is awesome!! I have so many good ideas and I'm addicted to watching this thread. I'm trying not to look and work on my EPCOT shirt! If I get it together soon I'll post. Keep up the good work!!

[triplefigs]

and the much revised back! this is loads better, now the front and back have similar color schemes.

Hi there, your designs are AWESOME!!! I just found out that my cousin and her family are going with us in October 2005..YEAH!!! Was wondering if you could change month/date and the names for the stick figures for us?? Adults are
Tim, Lanette, Jerry and Jacqueline
kids are
Tristan (boy), Isabella (girl) & Roman (boy)
I am going to figure out how to do this (soon I hope) but for now would appreciate your help. Thanks!!!!!!!! :love:

[MinnieMouseMom]

Wow! These designs are just incredible!!!!

I can't decide what to do for our family----we are taking my mom and my grandma in March (first trip for both of them!!!!).

I thought about "4 generations of princesses" or something for grandma, mom, me, and DD, but that leaves out my DH and our 2 sons.

Any ideas???


4 generations of princesses with a few princes thrown in for good measure

The girls could have a shirt that said, "2nd Generation Princess" (or whichever number) and the boys could say the same only prince

[triplefigs]

Found this gorgeous pic of the WL. thought it'd be perfect for the 3D Mickey.

[triplefigs]

You guys have ALL totally inspired me. Last night I ran out and bought a whole bunch of blank tshirts from Hobby Lobby, 4 pkgs of iron on transfers for our printer, and a printshop program!

Has anyone done anything tropical-ish? I would love to see them!!!! I love Midnite's Polynesian resort one and we'll probably do something with that on one shirt, but I'm SO not creative enough to figure out how to do this at all (I'm a banker and only work well with numbers, lol!)

Thanks in advance! :sunny:
