There are a few types of ways to silkscreen.
the first link is the cheapest way to screen but not as nice finish
second link is the full version of silk screening with emulsion
third link is how long to expose the screen after emulsion.
fourth link is example how to use photoshop

I really really URGENTLY need your pictures, you can use photoshop and all the funny patterns and faded pictures. BECAUSE we are using emulsion.

I weighed the pros and cons, and using the emulsion is only difficult in the exposure but all in all it can LOOK best that cutting cannot do because of the intricate lines. here are some examples.




more links please do look and read.

T-shirt Reference Designs

Better to research first then make a design.
Better to have one colour or 2 to impress because silkscreen is a tedious process.
Here are my offline resources.





if you need a colour scanner do pass the materials to me. I've got a scanner at home, photocopier, faxer, printer, yea all in one. I've scanned this resource from a book a once good friend gave me.
Have fun
