Artwork FAQ’s


Please note that for best results we suggest you supply artwork at 300dpi and in RGB format (our system converts all files to RGB).
 

What type of files can I use?
We sugget tif or png file with transparent background but all the following file types are acceptable:  png  tif  jpg  gif  eps  cdr


What size should my image be?
For best results you should try to use the highest resolution you can, 300dpi is good. If you're scanning a photograph, its best to set your scanner to the highest resolution possible. If you are creating your artwork from scratch an A4 canvas is fine. Our maximum print area size is 300 x 400mm.

 

What size should my image be?
If you are downloading images from Google make sure you source the biggest file you can. Small 72dpi images are not suitable as the resolution is too small and they will pixelate when enlarged. Remember to click on Seach Tools - Size - Large.

Tip: When you upload your image in to the online designer  the ‘quality meter’ will change from green to amber to red as you scale up to advise you of image quality loss. If you hit red it means the image may be blurry - you will need to find a new image with a higher resolution or scale it down again. 

 

My image doesn't look centered properly. Will it be printed like that?
Don't worry, we'll centre or straighten the image on your garment. We'll make it look as we possibly can. We want you to be happy with your custom product!
 


What is the maximum file size I can use?
Try to keep the file size under 15mb. Larger is possible but it will take a long time to load.


Do you offer graphic design services?
We don’t do complex graphic design in-house but we work with some awesome designers and can certainly organise this for you. Just send us an email with the details and we’ll get a quote to you.

Can I use copyrighted images?

If you’re really unsure about your artwork just email the file and details to us and we’ll have a look at it for you – at no charge of course! And don’t worry, if the quality of your artwork is too low we’ll contact you, we don’t just print it because you uploaded it. We want you to be happy with your custom product :)
