Seriously need help plz!!!!! (screen printing)

[timmys_girl1uk]

ok so i have a design and everything for a print for a shirt that i bought. so i tried it out first on a piece of paper and it just comes out a splodge.
i wanted to do the dog the bounty hunter symbol like on the show but it is only small.
so do you think that it is so small and detailed that wont work to well.
do you think that i would be better off just painting my design straight onto the shirt. I followed the instructions exactly how it said to.
please help thanks for reading.

Maybe try something a bit stiffer than paper. What sort of paint did you use? How small is small? If it is tiny you could try drawing it with a marker, then filling it in with paint (there are a few threads about markered t-shirts) If it is really small (again, not sure how small you mean) it may be too small a stencil for the paint you are using, or too small for that sort of detail and that is why it is a 'splodge'! Any chance of a picture? That maybe can help others figure out what the problem is.

If you can get your design onto the computer, try enlarging it with an image editing program (i.e. Photoshop) and then printing that out. That would make it bigger.

maybe try stencilling it instead?

do you have an completed screen? can we have a look at it?
maybe the paper just bled. you should try it on a scrap piece of cloth first, that will give you a better idea.

if you post a picture it might be easier to lend advice.
