Denise, I took them to a special place near here. The process was different than the usual t-shirt imprint, which is fused plastic, which eventually starts to "flake". This process seems to actually "fuse" with the cloth. It was pricy, like I said, but they guaranteed that it would look as good after 50 washings as new, and so far it does. I'm sure there are other places that can do the same process, it will just take some research. I don't think any of the laser or home printer photos will last for more than one or two washings. Good luck.
