I thought it was something to do with golf when I saw the shop name :lol: Design-a-tee is at the edge of downtown nearby the bus stops opposite the squirty fountain floor that still soaks me from time to time :point:

It had a sort of soft opening on the 8th but since then, the CMs have been inside testing out the screens that allow you to design t-shirts.

I did take a really sneaky shot through the window and got an excellent photo of....... the reflection of me taking a photo through a window :lol: I'd never make a paparazzo

...but basically the story is, it looks ready and pretty cool!

Downtown Disney and Hanes team up on T's

The most visible sign yet of the 10-year deal signed in 2007 between Walt Disney World and Hanes Brands Inc. is expected to debut today when the Disney's Design a Tee Presented by Hanes shop begins a soft opening in Downtown Disney's Marketplace.

The shop, next to The Art of Disney store at the east end of Downtown Disney, will allow customers to use one of eight touch-screen kiosks to design their own short- or long-sleeve T-shirts, featuring more than 300 items of Disney art and up to four lines of text, and have them printed while they wait.

"They select a shirt style, color and art, write a personal message or select from a set of programmed messages," said Hanes marketing director Dudley Gentry.

Prices range from $20 to $30. Shirts are made in about 15 minutes, he said, and patrons can wait and watch them being made on video screens, pick them up later or have them delivered.

It's doing odd days as a soft opening, at other times there's a CM posted in front of the door saying it's opening any day now

it looks totally ready though

They were $26.99
You have about three t/shirts to choose from.....long sleeve, short sleeve and fitted.
About eight colours and loads of pictures from Mickey and friends through princess', pirates etc.
You can then type in your printed words on the top and bottom....choosing the colour, font and if you want curved or straight words.
It is all very simple to do and the machine takes you through step by step and, there is always a 'back' button that you can go to if you change your mind.
There was about 6 machines.
