Hey guys and gals!

I know this may be a little off topic and I apologize but I didn't know what other thread to put this under.

I would like to be able to provide a product/service that entails turning photographs into pop art. I have searched the internet for "how to" information but have come up with zip! It would be nice to be able to offer this on shirts, bags, etc., as well as, the canvas panels.

Take a look at this website to get an idea of exactly what I'm talking about: PopPhotoNOW.com - Turn Your Photos into Pop Art on Canvas. It's Fast and Easy!

I would appreciate any help on where to look for equipment, instructions, whatever.

Thank you!

Using Photoshop you can easily create a pop art style design from a photo. The easiest way to create that effect is using the adjustment called 'posterize'. For the best results you will need to adjust colors, saturation and levels before posterizing.

To produce the design on tees, bags, canvas ect.. that's a bit different.
For making a canvas print a Giclee machine would be ideal. For the bags and tees i'd suggest looking into DTG machines.
