paper onto glassware?

I've seen drinking glasses with a computer-printed image put on them, by way of some kind of shrinking printer paper. I'm pretty sure it's washable...does anyone know what it's called, or where I can get it? I'm wanting to put a picture of the Lon Lon Ranch milk logo(from Legend of Zelda) on a glass for my fiance. The sister of a friend of mine made Evil Dead glasses for him this way. I'm trying to get in touch with her, to ask...but maybe one of you know?

I'm thinking I may just decoupage it on, with Mod Podge...then we'll be careful not to put it in the dishwasher.

I would just use mod podge, since I am not sure of the technique you speak off. and just hand wash it.

You can buy transfer paper (Lazertran is one I know of) but I think it needs the image to be from a colour copier rather than a priinter. Colour copies are easy to come by though.
I'm *almost* certain that you can get an inkjet version, but not 100%.

EDIT: I found some at decalpaper.com they have a video tute on there also to show you how to use it.
