Anyone out there just starting up or know of decent shirt designing programs that you can use online or download because all i have been doing is making shit up in microsoft paint and uploading the images onto a shirt. Any suggestions would be nice.

I shirt that you could upload images onto would be kick ass...
I've got a sponsor who designs shirts for us before we make them. I don't know the name of the program, if its free or if he bought it but I will get a hold of him and find out. Some samples of his programs shirts:

Illustrator by Adobe
Photoshop also
Shirt places burn screens using vector art. As opposed to raster art. Illustrator is a vector art program. If you use something other than vector, chances are (unless you can get a deal) they'll charge extra to convert. Which is basically re-drawing.
Easiest way to explain the diff:
Raster art is a picture made up of tiny little cubes (pixels) The more you try to enlarge. . . the bigger the pixels get. . . the crappier it looks
Vector art is based on constant rational equations. When you enlarge or shrink the image, everything is recalculated to keep it crisp.

I didn't ask what you thought of the shirts or the name and quite frankly I couldn't give a fuck less what you thought of them, if you don't have anything constructive to say towards the thread, which is the design program, then take your ass to the OT.

Chill out, he's got a point. The name is very poor and the designs need a lot of work. There are very few people who will purchase this. This coming from a designer. I'd recommend hiring someone else besides the guy you're currently speaking to.

Some programs are "proprietary" and only offered in people in the apparel industry. Other companies make special plug-ins for Illustrator, Photoshop, Corel Draw and Quark Express.
