Hi Kathy - Don't you just hate bad results!! Ruined a good t-shirt (or whatever) as well as the disappointment - Argh!! I've had good results with several brands. Some work better with specific brands of printers, others aren't so picky. Are you using your iron to press them on? Are you preheating the iron sufficiently? What sort of surface do you have under the fabric when you are ironing? What sort of problems are you having? Colors not bright enough? Transfer peeling off? What? Let us know and someone here probably has the answer for you!

I thought I'd share a new website for purchasing transfer paper, blank t-shirts, mousepads, heat presses and accessories online. www.transferpapercanada.com

Here are two sites with free t-shirt transfers, but they do not necessarily pertain to "50th Birthday". I am also listing some cute sayings for a mid-life t-shirt and the site on which I found them: http://members.tripod.com/~charlene_norma/patterns.html http://h71036.www7.hp.com/hho/html/756_0_0_225_121.html · Classified antique · Don't worry about wrinkles they're just antique smiles · Growing old is mandatory; growing up is optional! · I'm not 40, I'm 18 with 22 years experience. · I'm not old... I'm chronologically challenged! · I'm not old... I'm chronologically gifted · I'm not young enough to know everything. (Sir James M. Barrie) · In Dog Years, I'm Dead · It is easier to get older than it is to get wiser. · It's hard to be nostalgic when you can't remember anything. · It's not how old you are, but how you are old. · Just when I was getting used to yesterday, along came today. · Life not only begins at forty, it begins to show. · Middle age is when your age starts to show around your middle. · The trick is to live a long time without growing old. · Warning: dates in calendar are closer than they appear. · You are only young once, but you can stay immature indefinitely http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Farm/9753/poemfiles/aging2.htm And one of my favorites: "I'm not 50! I'm 49.99!" I have created transfers using my wordprocessor software and choosing the very large fonts and then when I print it out, I always choose the "transfer" option on the printer setup (sometimes it's listed as "reverse image"). Hope this helps, jackie (alabama) Here is a link that might be useful: HP Free Printables

I make my own. I use the iron on t-shirt transfer paper, iron it onto muslin and then cut with pinking shears. That's cheaper than the printable fabric. Susan
