165,000 stitches is way to much for a t-shirt. They just aren't designed for 
all of that thread. I have done a 180,000 stitch design on a jacketback but it 
is a different material. I have never used 1.5 oz. tear-away on t-shirts. 2.0 
oz. or 2.2 oz. cut-away would be better for t-shirts.
As far as digitizing goes, it takes a lot of practice and I wouldn't attempt 
anything over 20,000 stitches until you have mastered small designs. I wasn't 
able to see AL picture either, maybe use www.tinypic.com 
(http://www.tinypic.com) and paste the link here
