Description ...At least I believe this is Wind Waker Link.  I love LoZ, but that's one game I haven't gotten to yet.
Anyways, I have a transparent file on my computer, and I was actually thinking about making t-shirt designs like this.  I'm just curious about who would actually buy it.  I did already get over 50 likes on facebook, but I'm still kinda doubtful I'll make much cash off of it.  Not to mention that the words tend to be books, dialogue, or lyrics, and the images are also characters from video games and such..

Song:  I can't remember, but they were fan lyrics to either Song of Storms of Zelda's Lullaby.  The video I got them from were adrisaurus [Go check them out, they're AMAZING!!].

Thanks!  Question though, what's your opinion of things like this becoming a shirt?

I definitely think if the art is decent quality & you don't charge an unreasonable price (over 30 USD is unreasonable in my opinion.) Then I'd totally buy it!

Yeah, I still don't know about a price yet.  I mean there'd be the cost of actually printing the shirt and then also the profit for myself.  If I did sell something for about $30 then that would probably only factor into me making about $5-$10 for myself.

Sorry, you don't even know me, haha.  I've just been thinking about this a lot this past week.

I believe if you take your art piece and use a copier to make several copies for more shirts, you can iron the art pieces onto tshirts. If you made the background of the art white, and you ironed it onto a plain white tshirt, it would give you a pretty good quality. I wouldn't do this without looking it up to make sure it's possible though. You could spend a couple hours a week ironing the art onto the tshirts, and you'd have a nice bunch of them. If you charged 15$ a shirt so more people can afford it, the 5$ would help pay shipping & you'd get around 10$ a shirt. So, if only ten people a week buy the shirt that still gets you roughly around 100$ (more like 75$, but y'know) I know it's a pain to do it from home, but it's actually much cheaper if you do the math. I could help advertise these shirts so you'd get a higher profit. 

It's completely okay I may just be a stranger but I'll still listen and try to help.

I've already run through that idea.  I'm a Homestuck, I've already had plenty of experience with iron ons and they only last about a week before disintegrating.  Considering the detail of my designs that's just going to rub right off.

Yeah.. the price is kinda why I'm not sure if I should actually start selling them or not.  Commissions don't get any attention, but shirts do.  Though I did have a kid once commission me and he asked how much they'd be, and when I said they were choose your own price he decided to give me $20.  I made $80 off that job, haha.

I'd probably stick to commissions until I could figure out this whole shirt thing, but that's just me.

Problem solved for now lol
I put it on TeeSpring to see if they'll be popular.  If they sell I'll know they're popular and won't waste cash doing so and also make a bit for myself for if I decide to open an etsy shop and just do it myself.

Really!?  It's more expensive than I thought it'd have to be though, but it doesn't actually ship unless they can sell at least 10.
