Hi. I really wanted the "No Means No" t shirt that was made after the C's won last year, that showcases that iconic moment, when Paul Pierce blocked Kobe Byrant that is shown here:

I wish I could of gotten this shirt while it lasted



But the t shirt isn't sold anymore.

Someone else said that if the graphic is made with a transparent background, people can make the shirt on cafepress.com on a green shirt or whatever.

Is that possible? 20 TPs to whoever can help me out!

I really want that shirt.

This is the best I could do.

I'm gonna mess with it some more, see if I can make it a t-shirt.

If I could find the original action photo I know I could make it.

OKay, I even created it online to make sure it worked out. Its pretty close.

Go to "Create T-shirt", then pick the dark fitted option, then attach the image attached below. Super easy. I think it will look great, but I make no promises or profit here, so order at your own risk.

Note, I cannot attach it, it is too large.

The original shirt is sick! :o

I've found this lone picture of the action, but it's not the great angle of the original shirt :

Edit : Here is another angle, quite close but withou the Finals logo on the floor :

thanks for the help! what can't you attach?

i tried using the image on cafepress, but once i added the image to the website, a blank screen came up.

don't know what to do next.

That's the picture.

I can't believe I just made that. Understand everything I know about photoshop is completely self-taught.

it looks great. but it's not the right picture. the original has the finals on the floor, plus you can tell in the original that paul has the upper hand. in this picture, it looks like its a pro kobe thing....and i dislike that guy!

hmmm.

lol no, you didn't offend me. I was more joking that you were picky. I actually enjoyed doing it. I like learning to do new things on photoshop, and I like thinking of dumb T-Shirts to do.

i actually fell in love with this shirt too, but what kept me from going the extra mile to have it made was the reason this guy gave.  I think even in the original, unless youre familiar with the play itself, you would almost think that this is a Kobe Bryant t-shirt.  I actually liked the 2nd photo someone else posted from the side angle, with Pierce clearly getting the block.

Again, no knock on what you did IndeedProceed, it looks absoloutly phenominal, the picture itself I just dont like.  TP anyway for the fine craftsmanship.

Which photo did you like Greg?

because the side picture that you can clearly see the Paul blockage Kobe is the first picture, unless you meant another picture.
