I have been trying to design a T-shirt with a small logo on it; something like on a football-shirt.

The picture of the logo is 510 x 621 pixels. I use the Wood-template with Photoshop.

When I put the logo on the layer it was like the prick of a needle, so small.... nd when I put the layer on the T-shirt it was not visible at all.

How can I do this??? I guess it should be possible.

So.

Do you want the logo to be "prick of a needle" small? Is this like an Izod Lacoste logo or do you want it all across the chest?

Once you've placed a graphic on a layer, Go to EDIT and scroll down to Free Transform. That will allow you to stretch, rotate and resize the graphic. You can pull and push the little white boxes to resize. Hold you mouse just outside any corner to rotate the box. When you have it at the size you want, hit Enter and it will set it. You can still move the logo around on the shirt. If you want to change the size again, repeat the Free Transform step.

I'm not very practiced in Photoshop, but this might be a first step to getting it the size you want.

In fact I want both ..... I want to make a shirt with a small logo, say approx. 7 cm. in real life and also all across the chest.

I use the Robin Wood template and the problem is that when I put the layer with the ' prick of the needle' sized picture on the T-shirt it is totally invisible !!!!
So, I don't see it anywhere .....

The only thing I see is the standard Robin Wood picture on the shirt.

So, when I don't see it it is hard to enlarge it......

If you're using my T-shirt template, something that's 510x621 pixels should be about half the size of the total image (which is 1024x1024.)

So, far from being too small to see, it should wind up being quite a bit larger than the shirt.

I'm guessing that something happened when you were putting the logo onto the shirt.

Exactly what, step by step from "Open the Logo Picture in Photoshop" are you doing to get it there?

If you explain it all, leaving nothing out, we'll be able to tell you what happened, and how to fix it.

Let us know!
