For much of the ’90s, T-shirt slogans replaced speech as the preferred way to express feelings and announce one's spatial relationship with stupid. Communicate graphically with today’s Groupon: for $19, you get $40 worth of custom-printed apparel and accessories at Big Frog Custom T-Shirts & More. This Groupon is redeemable only at Big Frog's Old Olive Street Road location.
Big Frog transfers custom and premade designs onto everything from garments and golf towels to mouse pads and flags. Jump-start a stalled imagination machine by consulting sundry design ideas, graphic designers on staff, and a range of clothing styles. Print a picture of your favorite ex-attorney general onto a white cotton T-shirt ($15.99–$18.99 in S–3XL) or colored jersey polo ($20.99–$23.99 in S–3XL), or label identical twins with two colored onesies for infants ($16.99 each). The shop also stocks illustratable knickknacks such as coasters ($23.99/four), 110-piece puzzles ($15.39), and car flags ($16.49, pole included).
A high-resolution ink-jet garment printer can faithfully transfer any image as it appears on a computer screen, rendering lush JPEGs and pithy error messages in as many as 16 million colors. The printer tattoos ink deep into the skin of the shirt, creating crisp tableaux that last through hundreds of washes without devolving into that distressed vintage look common among Victorian time travelers. Big Frog offers a 24-hour turnaround on many orders and can replicate designs on multiple shirts.
