17DecDesign Your Own Custom T-Shirt

bluecotton.jpgWinner of Adobe’s July site of the day and featured in many high profiled tech sites, BlueCotton gives you the ability to design your own customized tee shirt. Customize your tee shirt with an easy to navigate and operate online web interface. Creating a simple text on your custom tee shirt is simple and has a lot many features that come along with just creating a one line sentence or a single word. Letter spacing, rotation, and text outlining, are just a few options for text. I will definately bookmark this site, as a graphic/sticker/web designer, I’d like to put some of my artwork on clothing. I must say, I like BlueCotton’s interface and features on customizing a tee shirt way better than cafepress. Check out custom greek t-shirts.
