How is this done? I'm looking to have a design that covers the entire shirt, front and back. What is the process associated with this? How should artwork be setup? What kind of machines are used?

www.inyourfaceapparel.com does this. They print on the fabric before the shirt is sewn together, using sublimation or watermation. Artwork has to be set up in a vector form (I would imagine). It is however extremely expensive to do this.

is this the only way to do it? it makes sense, but just wondering if thats the only method ie. without having to construct the shirt.

why would it need to be in vector form?

Another way to do this is with a screen printing press called a "roller press" or a "belt press". It prints the shirt by rolling it on a conveyor belt.

Something like this machine:
