There’s nothing like combining tee-shirts and technology! There are some brilliant tee-shirt designs out there, and the sky’s the limit for innovation. Here’s a design that incorporates an actual Wi-fi detector. For anyone who’s ever walked all over the city with a laptop or ipad, looking for wi-fi access, this is a great idea…..If you wear your trusty wi-fi detector shirt next time you go out, it will display all the wi-fi hotspots, and give the signal strength! The glowing bars on the front of the shirt dynamically change as the surrounding wi-fi signal strength fluctuates.

The above title is another funny example of things we’ve seen printed on T-shirts. You can have so much fun with text on Tees, but some of the funniest designs are mistakes and mis-translations. We’ve included a few more this week, some from Tee shirts, and some from badly translated signs.
Creepy Mistranslation
You Can Shirt This Have
No thanks…that’s ok, you can keep it!:-)
Uneasy Spirituality
Well….the text is nice and clear, but the meaning is a bit obscure!
Explosive Dog
Everyone stand clear! Explosive Dog on the loose….maybe a new terrorist weapon? Funny how the absence of one “s” can give text a whole new meaning.
We wish you all are Merry Christmas, and hope that all our customers are giving their loved ones some of our great tee-shirts, polos, or rashies as gifts this Season
Well, the year is roaring to an end, and we’re faced with what gifts to buy for cousins, kids, uncles, friends, etc. What better gift for a hot Aussie Christmas than a high quality cotton tee, printed with a fun message, or family photograph? Here are a few fun design ideas we found:
Today we’ve got some more funny tee-shirt designs…some of them are using nice fonts, and eye-striking designs, but woeful translation brings a comic twist for the Western reader. Here are a few more samples of tee-shirt artwork worn by people totally oblivious to their meaning:
Smelly Smell
Seduction Tee
Some of us had be very careful before buying tee-shirts with Asian writing on them…find out what they really say, before wearing!
Back Hair Tee
Wordy Jumble Tee
But the thing to notice with a lot of these tee designs is that the fonts, colour and general construction make them very noticeable, which is what a customer aims for when printing on a tee-shirt. This tee above says absolutely nothing of any value, yet the owner of the shirt was obviously motivated to buy it because of maybe a mixture of a few things…the font type, the colour, the placement and text size? Check these awesome tee-shirts out….now you can buy wearable guitar and drum tees that you can actually play! All major chords are recorded from a real electric guitar, and the included magnetic pick allows you to strum just like you would a real guitar. The included mini amp clips to your belt and gets plenty loud with great sounding amplification circuitry. The tone knob on the amp lets you adjust the sound just like a real guitar.

Mini Amplifier which powers the T-Shirt instrument
These are some really innovative applications for tee-shirts, and practical too!…..don’t have to lug your instruments around with you to practice….just play your shirt!
French and US president advertised middle East preference in a souvenir shop selling Tee shirts.
A souvenir shop in Jerusalem displays Tee shirts with pictures of French President Nicolas Sarkozy wearing a traditional Arab headress and US Barack Obama in the hat of an Orthodox Jew.
Top Palestinian and Israeli leaders held talks in New York amid frantic diplomatic efforts to avoid a showdown over a Palestinian bid to seek full UN membership as a state. Let us know if you want some Tees to support their cause.
Some of our customers like to wear scary stuff on their tee-shirts, and we get some pretty amazing artwork sent in to print. But the message gets kind of lost when the artwork’s all blurry and pixelated, and our Art department often gets called in to re-draw an illustration, and put the SCARY part back in !
This is a sample of the artwork received from one customer recently:
Scary Mummy
It goes without saying that this kind of artwork presents a real challenge in preparing a new drawing for displaying on one of our great tee-shirts, and usually necessitates a couple of Panadol afterwards too! Here is the result of our re-draw, and then a sample of what it looked like on a shirt:
Scary Pic redrawn
Scary Tee
Once you’ve had artwork re-created, it remains on our files for future use…in case you want us to dig it out at Halloween, to scare everybody all over again Maybe you’re an aspiring artist, and want to advertise your skills on a shirt, along with your contact details, and maybe a website URL….our top quality polos and tees are perfect. You’ll also notice that the print sizing maximum for our style of printing is 28cm wide by 36cm high
