Awsome t-shirt design (2 color gah!). One note (and I only know this because I work for a screenprinter) the lines around the black creature's white eyes should be a little thicker. You should account for a 1/20-1/16 spread for the ink. Keep them at 1pt for actual size of the print, that's a safe thickness. Also, that super-cool gradient may not look so super cool when converted into halftones. Check it in photoshop at 60 LPI (that's about as high as you can go on a colored t-shirt, because they have to hit the white twice to make it bright...I usually play it safe at 50 lpi).

Anyway, awsome image, just some technical considerations. But AWWWWW!

Oh, thanks so much dear girl! I am such a novice when it comes to screenprinting, so its so cool you took the time to lend me your profound expertise!!! Thanks for that! So now I can play it a screenprinting guru and include all these helpful tips, mwahaha. I ll be like, oh yeah thats only a preview but I would suggest, blah blah
How on earh could I do that thingy in photoshop? I mean with the cool but not so cool when printed gradient?Is LPI lines per inch? If yes, isn't that really clever from me?

mine!!

What you have to do is take all the white from your Illustrator doc and make it balck (delete the BG and pink)...then export it as a greyscale TIFF...THEN in PS, convert it to B&W w/ a "Halftone screen" (you'll get a drop down menue)...when that comes up, type in 60 or 50 lpi (yes, lnes per inch, you little genius, you )(I'd go w/ 50, because of the double hit. if the screentones are too small, then they may print a little off and look all wonky). Then save it. Your Doc is now a B&W TIFF file. Now, "place it in your illustrator file over your existing gradient (which you have deleted for now) and select a white fill for it (you can change the fill of B&W tiffs in Illustrator). There, a little preview for you. You may need to move it behind the pink stuff.

Confused yet?
