If I find someone who can take my original sketches and make them look nice enough for a t-shirt how should they royalties be split??

Should I offer a flat rate, if so how much?? Should they get some $$ off of each one I sell if so how much??(if shirt sells for $18-$20.00)

Examples would be some skateboard designs and music related.

I am about to start this all up but I need some input so i don't get screwed or screw someone over.

You will have to pay a graphic designer to do that for you. There will not be any royalties...just a flat fee up front to do the artwork. You can try posting at t-shirtlogos.com, and you will get responses from graphic designers.

Thank you jdr8271

There's another good thread about it here:

Also, if you get a good relationship with your printer, sometimes you can have the in house art department clean up the design and get it print ready at no additional cost if you're doing the printing through them.
