I Had These Cool Dave Hum T-Shirts Made

I had two custom shirts made this week from Print Box Originals in Austin, Texas. I only paid around $20 each. This first T-shirt came out fantastic, I humbly think. I love how the photo fades around the edges. The company didn't do that, the photo I sent them has faded edges.

A Cool Dave Hum Shirt I Had Made

I was really surprised that the first T-shirt came out so nice, because the image was smaller in size, but they somehow did a great job with the small photo anyway.

For this next photo, I send them the highest quality .PNG format file that I had of Dave Hum. I like the first shirt better because it has faded edges. This shit is okay, it still came out nice. ...

Another Cool Dave Hum Shirt I Had Made

Here are the original .PNG photos (they say this is the best format to use) that I sent to Print Box Originals on Amazon, if you want to use them. But you can send them any photo that you want, and they'll make a T-shirt for you. I chose the color black, but they also offer many different colors.



Here are a bunch more images that I saved in .PNG format for you, if you'd like to use them to make a shirt. This next photo would look awesome on a black T-shirt! ...


For the following image, I create faded edges using a freeware open-source program called, GIMP (I love this totally free program, There's nothing like it for working with photos). This YouTube video explains how to use the GIMP program to fade the edges of an image. I faded the edges, but I am not sure how this image would come out if you use it. Would the edges be white? I don't think so, because the edges were removed. But I am not sure, so please keep this in mind if you use it, I simply don't know. I love this photo though!

Dave Hum: The Banjo Man

SIDE NOTE: As a born-again Christian, I'm thinking of having another shirt made with this image that I edited with GIMP. I feathered this first cropped image on the outside using GIMP, which I think will work better on a shirt. GIMP is a free open-source program. Using "Select/Feather" from the dropdown menu in the program, you can choose how much feather effect you want. ...


This cropped image has no feathered effect...
