I try to avoid the think thing, but I do have a bargain approach to
this.

There are iron on decal like sheets available at office supply stores
for tee shirts at a fairly inexpensive price.  They may be printed from
an ink jet printer.  I have had very good success with these on 50/50
mixed shirts (better than 100% cotton shirts) with a dry iron on a hot
setting, using pillow cases on formica (does not work well with an
ironing board).  The image could be available for upload from a site or
through direct email or  people could send an SASE envelope with some
change to somebody (about 1.00 a sheet).  Then one could put it on
anything they want- white that is.

I think it would be really interesting to have a few different imagery
on a theme to choose from, I am sure there would be lots of ideas.

By the way, most of the experience I have had with the iron on decal
like sheets have been with continuos tone images- though lettering was
fairly good, not as good as screen printing.
