Anyone have this dump truck?

First of all..take a flat photo, or scan, no wrinkles, and shoot straight on.
 :P
Convert it to greyscale.

Play with the levels of your bitmap ( a few times, not all in one shot ) until it's just black and white.
( the jpeg here has aliasing on it. Make it black and white only )

You WILL lose detail if the source pic ain't big, so photo/scan large.
Auto-trace.

Fix, fix, fix.
Better yet, make it your own.

I do art, it p*sses me off when I get burned, but it happens.
This is purely from a production perspective, although I doubt the guy
who hammered that truck out in a rush would give the slightest sh*t anyway.

How about letting an artist redraw a photo of one for you for a small wager.....

So if someone brought this shirt to you that they have already had printed and wanted you to print the same design would you turn the job down because someone did their art previously?

This happens with every shop and guarantee every shop does it or has done it at some point and time.
Is it legal? NO.
Do shops still do it? Yes. 
Will it ever stop? Seriously doubt it.

Gerry perhaps you have missed previous discussions on "who owns the art?"
When you do original art for a customer, you retain the rights unless a separate agreement is made. (Something that needs to be spelled out to a client as well)

Even worse, are the reports we sometimes see here of designs sent as art proofs appearing on shirts printed by a competitor.
