Help finding a suitable met my wife on ancestry.com image for my dads birthday t-shirt

Hello all,

possibly the longest and certainly the most ridiculous forum topic I've ever written...

So it's my dads 65th birthday and he is a serial wearer of the most inappropriate t-shirts known to mine and coincidentally has a great interest in genealogy. I therefore came to the conclusion it would be a fantastic idea to get him the infamous 'I met my wife on ancestry.com' t-shirt.

Unfortunately, I was only able to find US sources which were fairly ridiculous prices. My next idea was to get a high-quality image that I could take to a printer or better yet, use the likes of vistaprint. I've done a bit of searching and found one 600x600 image but I'm a bit worried they'll attempt to print the white background colour on a white t-shirt which will look awful.

I'm wondering if anyone with better google skills than me can help me find an image source or tell me where to look for such a thing?

Thank you for any help you can provide, if I get this sorted I can guarantee it will provide the old man much joy! I may even return with a picture of his cheeser in it

I don't get it. I though Irish people were supposed to have good humour?

well unfortunately, as you can tell in my family's case, this isn't true. Anyone any ideas on good places to turn to for turning up a high quality image for this?

Why not just use something like this: https://www.tshirtstudio.com/t-shirt-printing/design-your-own-t-shirt rather than having them print an image on a shirt?

EDIT - There's also this but it's black not white: https://www.redbubble.com/people/ra...MI4seKvoj42AIVwrDtCh19BAy1EAYYASABEgIBDvD_BwE

How much do you want to spend?

This is actually what I am trying to do. The problem being the images I've found are too low quality to even use after my limited fireworks skills have been put to use i.e. slight white outline on the tree leaves for example. I'm basically looking to source a higher quality image and have no idea where to look or potentially buy one from.

Happy to spend £20 or so, mostly a decent quality image I'm after and can go from there
