Made an AWESOME SHIRT!

[Selkielass]

This was a Necro of a *very* old thread- found it while googling for garter snake shirts and wondered why nothing seemed to come of it. (I have heard mixed reviews of cafe press and thought that might be a factor.)

I'd like a nice Garter themed T shirt, but nothing I've seen out there has struck my fancy.
Some websites/boards I've frequented in the past help pay server and hosting costs by offering a T shirt for sale. Has this ever been brought up here? I couldn't find anything in a quick search.

I liked the shirt but the images could use a little more photoshop work (no offense)

What?!What is wrong with them that could be better?!

color corrections/popping, have the images without tails fade out a little smoother (via very soft brush and some gradients etc), flat lines at the bottom of an image where it was cropped or that was the bottom of the full frame file- either way needs to be filled in.
I could nit pick it further if I had the original .psd file to mess with.
Just little things I would fix before sending it into production.

which is exactly why no shirts have been made yet. The design needs a LOT of work. And I haven't had time to do it. Even though this thread is rather old. This was really just me playing around seeing what I could do with the images I had. At the time, I didn't even have photoshop on this computer... now I do! And I am very good at it.... but I just haven't had the time or motivation....

In fact if I were to do it... I would definitely position my snakes and take new photos of them in shapes exactly for this purpose. These snakes were just happening to be in the poses that you see them in, in photos that I had previously taken.

Personally I would prefer a snake that just happened to be in the shape of a letter over one that has been positioned; thats what makes it so cool ...to me at least lol

If you do get around to doing it I'd help you you with some of the photoshop work. I'm not the best, but I'm far from the worst. If you do like photoshop you should enter some contests on worth100.com
Here's an entry I did that got first
