What kind of transfer paper do you use?

I LOVE all the photos of people's shirts they made. I've tried doing T-shirts in the past (2005) and while the design/printing was bright and vibrant on my computer and on the transfer paper.....after ironing it to the T-shirt it was dulled colors.

So what kind of transfer paper do you guys use to get such bright colors to transfer to your shirt?

I have an inkjet photo printer so I'm pretty sure it's not the printer or ink that are causing the dull colors....and they're plenty bright and beautiful when printed, so it's either the transfer paper or my method of ironing it, right?

Alot of the ones you see are probably on Dark Transfers (where you don't reverse the image) I have always used Avery
s Dark Transfers, But then I was introduced to AMY_MICKEYS Dark Transfers (just look for her name and there will be a link in her siggie to her website )
I absolutely LOVE the quality of the transfers I got from her, much more of a professional level to your shirts for sure

Thanks! I went ahead and got the Avery Dark Transfer because I don't have enough time left before we leave to order something. But if the Avery's don't do what I hoped, then next time I'll give those others a try. Do you happen to know what brand they are, maybe I could find them locally?
