Question: Wants to make a tshirt but might be illegal!?
there's this really good idea i have for tshirt but it involves taking a screenshot/picture from a show I watched!. I would have to make an iron-on for this picture and I don't know how!. To top it off, I don't know if it's illegal or not!. I don't plan on selling the shirt, it's just something for me and me alone!. So is it allowed!? If so, how do I go about doing it!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
If you are making the t-shirt for your own use, it's legal!. In fact people do it all the time!. Making multiple copies for sale without permission from the owners of the show would be illegal!.

Making an iron on would just be a matter of saving the screenshot, using an image editing software to reverse/flip the image (because you need to print it out the opposite of the way you actually see the image), and printing to t-shirt iron-on paper, which you can buy various places (even office supply stores!) You would just have to make sure it's compatible with whatever printer you have!.
