GOOD IDEA!!

I'd be happy to help in whatever way possible, looking for pictures, clip art, etc. Please tell me how to help! I just don't know how to cut them out or paste them in one image (or anything else related to creating the shirts )

Here is a copy of a PM I sent to someone yesterday explaining how:

You will first need to make sure the photo you are wanting to post on the board is already uploaded to a location somewhere on the internet. You cannot post a photo on the board that is located on your computer's hard drive.

There are lots of free photo hosting places out there; I use photobucket.com. Go there and register for a free account, and then follow their instructions for uploading pictures. Once you get the photos uploaded, you will see an address (http://....etc) for each photo. THAT is what you should put into the IMG insert text box field when you are posting here on the board. It tells the board the location/address of your photo, where it is on the internet.

Thank you. I finally figured out how to post photos thanks to you!

Thanks to julia & nicks mom, I successfully downloaded the free PotoImpact 30 day trial. Woo hoo!

Now I'm wondering if someone can help me figure out how to delete the background from a clipart image. I can see where the dotted line is around the image, but can't figure out how to get rid of the background. Normally I would just play around with it all day, but I'm trying to get ready to go out of town and I don't have that much time.

Anyone?

If anyone has the time, I'd love something for myself and my daughter. We are doing a mother/daughter trip (also my b-day, lol). My name is Brenda and my daughter's name is Meghann and we are going in September. Thanks so much!

Holy Cow! I've never seen such talented and GENEROUS people in my life. These shirts are absolutely amazing. It's been 10 years since DH and I went to Disney for our honeymoon, and now we're taking our triplets in December for their 1st time. I'm blown away by all the terrific designs.

So, do people wear a special shirt every day of their trip, or for just a few of the days? We'll be in the parks for 7 days, so that would mean a lot of designs. Since we're going in "winter" would I need to transfer them to long sleeve shirts or sweatshirts, or would you still do short sleeve?

I was trying to think of themes I could link together (triplets). Maybe each child with the same design but a different color and character? Ideas I could use help with are:

• MVMCP shirts (I like the "MVMCP star" one but it only has 4 characters on it, and I need 5)
• Kids first trip to WDW (the different character but same design) ie Buzz, Woody, and Little Bo Peep shirt
• Peter Pan, Captain Hook, and Tink (or Wendy) shirt for our Family Magic Tour
• PRINCE shirts for my 2 boys (John Smith, Prince Charming, Prince Eric, Prince Phillip, Peter Pan) to wear at all those Princess meals (we're doing 3~ )
• DD would love ANY princess shirt (general or holiday)
• My boys would love a Villian shirt with Maleficent, Cpt Hook, etc
• Pooh character shirts (general or holiday)
• General Christmas shirts (family of 5 so need 5 characters)

Any other cute ideas? I don't think DH will wear a shirt, but the kids and I will. maybe a GRUMPY shirt for DH? That would be perfect!

Hey I have another idea. You could do Huey, Dewey, and Louie shirts. Those are Donald Duck's nephews I believe. I think they would make cute shirts.

I like Batch #2 (the top pictures) because the Mickey Heads stand out better. But both sets are AWSOME. Way better than I could ever do.

first - select your item - on the left of the screen is a toolbar - there looks like what appears to be an eraser - when you click on its arrow - it says object amgic eraser - if you choose this - it erases all of one color - so if your background is white - boom done! - you can choose different degrees of matching - so you can get all shades of blue - but be careful if it matches something in what you want - it will be erased

Which program are you using with this feature? And how do I select an object in PhotoImpact 8?

Is that how you made the white lines through the letters in your MVMCP design?

I have never used 8.0 - but if it is like 10.0 - there is an arrow - click on that - then click on the object -if it doesn't appear to be chosen (like if you opened a jpeg) then cut the object out and repaste it - then you will be able to play with it as it will no longer be considered the base of the design

there is an option when choosing your font color to do a gradient - I used a red one

Oh, ok. I was trying to add our names into your template but couldn't get them to look like yours. I'm using Photoshop and don't really know a whole lot about what I am doing.

Yes, J&N mom, would you mind listing the font and size on your blank templates? I couldn't figure out which one to use to match it either. You are so great to help us all out!

when I get a chance to update my website - I will put the name of the font with the shirts - I can't tell you size as I go with dimensions not the size of the font

No flames at all!!! I really like Batch #2 because the Mickey heads stand out so well, but I also like the shirt your DH and DS 4 is wearing in Batch 1 (the group photo). Both sets are great!
