Steps-
Create your own transfer ~•~
Find or create an image on the computer. You can even scan an image from something else you have.
To find an imagine just search into a search engine what you want. For example go on google images and type in I don't know all time low logo. Fin what you want and save the image.
To create an image open up pair or photoshop and create from there!
Manipulate image~•~
Resize or add any effects.
Reverse the picture if it has words so it's now backwards.
Print Preview~•~
Print out design on a normal copy paper until you get the size you want. This may take a few try's. Print in black and white or a lower quality color.
Print~•~
Put in your transfer paper once you found the size you like and fix the quality to a higher one and change back to color if you changed that. Hit print and have it print out.
Layout teeshirt~•~
Place teeshirt or other article of clothing on flat surface and iron out all wrinkles you find on the shirt.
Picture~•~
Put the picture face down onto your shirt so the deign is on the shirt. Make sure you place it where you want it because there is no going back.
Cardboard~•~
Place cardboard between shirt do the transfer doesn't get on the other side.
Iron it on~•~
Read the instructions given on your transfer sheet.
Set iron to the temp. Said.
Move iron in big circles on the transfer.
Focus on the outside of the image so it stays on longer.
Keep iron moving to keep from scorching and ruining the shirt and design.
Wait for image to cool~•~
Turn off the iron and wait till its done cooling after a few minutes to do anything.
Remove backing from transfer paper.
Gently peel it off so you don't take the design with it.
Wash and dry~•~
wash and dry on a cool setting before you do anything else.
TURN THE SHIRT INSIDE OUT BEFORE WASHING.

Hope this helped some of you :) I'm going to be doing this a lot in the future because clothing is expensive and they never have a graphic tee I want.
