Combining the Awesomeness of PS and AI, create an original tee, parameters are below:
Start by doing some research: Who is your audience? What kind of tee would be likely to sell? What is considered copywright infringement?
Start by going to:

Turn-in Requirements:
Step 1. Save the T-shirt Template Design to your profile (My
Documents/My Pictures) as an .ai, .psd, or .gif file...or all three. Keep your
original layers/work intact, in Illustrator it is best to save for web and
devices, and then choose the file type.
Step 2. Turn in to the hand-in folder, D. Chandler, the Template
saved as a .jpg at 72ppi and your name.
You can show both the front and back of your tee if you’d like,
as well as a few different color schemes (Multiple submissions.)
STEP 3: Create your thumbnail
Your thumbnail doesn’t have to be your entire design, a small
piece of it works fine.
This is what people will click on when they want to vote on your
design.
Your thumbnail must be a .gif and under 10kb. Using the “save
for web” option in
your graphics program to save your thumbnail is definitely
recommended.

Have I listened to critiques and feedback given to me to improve
my design?
Is my presentation well done? Is the image saved in a high
quality format?
Have I followed the
rules for submitting and have created something that is
