So I've been tinkering with zazzle mostly and obviously you can only print in a 1800x2100pixel area and pocket, etc but you can't print around the whole t-shirt.
Example: PacSun.com - Clash V-Neck Tee
(sorry if your not sposta link like that this is my second post)

I have lots of designs I'd like to put to t-shirts that have alot of color but I don't know how these shirts are created.
Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks for and and all help!

That particular shirt looks like the material was printed, then sewn together. Myself and any of the other printers on this list should be able to print similar shirts. http://www.t-shirtforums.com/screen-printing/t8891.html

Do you know of any place, similar to zazzle or cafepress that would do that?

No. Fulfilment printers don't do all-over prints, as there is too much involved in the process to do them as one-offs.

the fabric was printed before the garment was cut and produced

That makes much more sense, so the difference between over sized printing (which is for material before its sewn into a shirt)
and belt printing is that a belt printer can go all the way around a t-shirt after it's sewn together?

This is a belt printer:

You could print a shirt, or fabric on this machine. The advantage of printing fabric before the shirt is sewn, is that there are not spots of missing ink over seams and collars. The disadvantage, is that cut and sew usually has very high minimums.
