I am puzzled by this companies description of what they are doing, they are weeding a design out of a "sheet of ink" is it me - or is this simply vinyl/flex given a more "expensive" name "plotter printing"

It's just vinyl by the looks of it. I used to use that company for my DTG work when I was in Nottingham

But more importantly, what's the score using female models with thongs to show off t-shirts?
is this a good selling point? Tell me now as I'm just about to get my nikon out and tell the missis to put her pot noodle down!
(can be found by clicking on stag night t-shirts and then playing a video - on the link above).

I can't comment on folks calling things by another name, as I always use a completely different name for all my sublimation printing.
The only models I use for my tees are flat vector templates. Not as sexy, but far easier to pose and with no prima donna tantrums to contend with.

i might change my website to show "plotter printing" where needed lol, it just sounds far more technical than vinyl/flex
