it looks a bit too shiney for me....look almost plastic or starched IMO, but hey you asked, and you probably should have started w/ a darker base color....like olive drab or a darker brown, b/c the light colored shirt is gonna overtake anything you put on there if there are gaps
Yes, I agree on both points. As far as the base color goes I did want something darker. I looked for awhile and couldn't find anything I really liked that was 100% cotton. I was also excited and in a hurry to get started so I just went with it. My hope is that if I break it up enough it may do the job. I'll just have to wait and see. As far as the shinyness *sp* I noticed that as well. I didn't realize it was going to be that way until I already had it on and took a pic with flash (which is what you see reflecting). I can only hope that it gets dulled down when I wash it. Other similiar iron ons have dulled after I wash them so we'll see what happens. Either way thanks for the input I think they're both right on the money.
