Dear Subscriber,

Welcome to the June edition of 'Computer & Printer Tips'.

Summer is here, and the vacation season has begun.

Family vacations, kids out of school, birthday parties, and 4th
of July picnics with fireworks only a couple of weeks away.

In this month's issue, our feature article tells you how you
can create your own custom T-shirts.

For those of you who are creative or a little crafty, this can
be a really fun and easy project for you. If you have kids,
they'll love to be involved and have a fun 4th of July T-shirt
with an image they helped make.

With that said, on with the show...

FEATURE ARTICLE: Create Custom T-shirts w/your Inkjet printer
===============================================================

With the Fourth of July a couple weeks away, it's the perfect
time to make your own custom Independence Day T-shirt using your
inkjet printer.

I'm a simple man. Personally, I prefer cotton T-shirts to any
other article of clothing. They're comfortable, go with
anything and are inexpensive. Plus, they are a great palette
for funny sayings, logos, or interesting pictures.

Well, the T-shirt just got better a little better because now
you can customize them yourself!

Most kids are now on summer vacation so it's a great time to
have them make their own fun T-shirt. This project will surely
get their creative juices flowing and keep them out of mischief
at the same time... (at least for a little while)

Rencently I made a fantastic custom shirt for my Dad. It
played on an inside joke about him, and it was a hit with
everyone in my family. This 4th of July, I plan on making a
custom T-shirt with an image of an American Flag with fireworks.

While everyone else is wearing the same Independence Day T-shirt
from "Old Navy", I will be sporting something unique this year.
We're going to get the kids involved too, and whip up something
fun for them as well.

So, how does this whole T-shirt image process work?

Basically, you use your inkjet printer to print out the image
onto some special T-shirt transfer paper, which you in turn iron
onto a shirt or sweater, or any other cotton fabric.

The process is simple...

Use an image from a digital picture, scanned photo or search
for a graphic on-line. (browse Google images for ideas)
http://images.google.com
Print out the image onto the transfer paper
Trim the excess off of the printed image
Iron on the image onto a T-shirt, hat, bag, etc.

Tips:

Print out your custom image on regular paper first as a test.
If it's how you want it, then you can proceed with the transfer
paper.
Be sure to select the "mirror image" setting in properties
before printing out since the image will be reversed when ironed
onto the T-shirt.
Remember that your printer doesn't actually print white (only
an empty space without ink). So if you are printing the Stars
and Stripes (or something else in white), make sure you use
white as your base fabric.

(Full instructions are of course included with the T-shirt transfer paper.)

This month, we are running a special on the transfer kits for
only $14.97 (normally $19.97).

This is a great time to save $5.00 off the regular price.

We just restocked our supply of our T-shirt transfer sheets
kits, but it is a popular product this time of the year. If
you're interested, you should order now as our supplies are
limited to quantity on hand.

Have fun with it!
