From what I understand, if a tshirt has more than or equal to 4 colours, the cost of production doesnt change. I'm not sure why the number is 4 and not the usually 3, but it seems t shirts are printed with 4 base colours. Now, the Firefox logo, for example, has a whole bunch of gradients, oth in the blue and the red regions. I've got firefox t-shirts that have the logo reproduced faithfully. I'm not sure what the process is called, but it basically looks like the logo has been printed on some kind of paper and then sort of stuck onto the t-shirt. I dont know how this would react to everyday use, and havent really washed it enough times to see if the logo will start to peel or chip off, but right now atleast it looks good. Something along these lines might be useful for the oxygen logo on the T-shirt.
