You could also redo the picture with your own blank shirt and decorate how you want. You can then use that same picture for your other designs as well, as it'll always be blank.
Hi, when I try to place my design png file on top of the mock T shirt file, it snaps over the entire T shirt area and replaces it. The blank T shirt file is deleted. I've tried various ways (like converting file to jpg) to overcome this. Do let ke know where I'm going wrong.
Good video. Well explained step by step. But, with all the respect, what I was wondering: How to show the design exactly as it will be printed on the product? (So potential costumers won't get dissapointed.)
@@creatwinkles Here's a link to a tutorial that shows you how to create more realistic looking mockups with the free website Photopea.com: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tErjU7iLVK8.html Also, place your design on the mockup exactly the same size and placement of your POD product listing. :)
Thanks for the great tutorial! I have used Photopea for years, and this made perfect sense. I tried using the Levels function instead of the Curves function for the final step, and my results were great.
Etsy recommends using an aspect ratio of 4:3 which will be 2500 pixels (width) by 2000 pixels (height) for horizontal or landscape images. (2000 x 2000 pixels for a square crop of the mockup image.) These pixel dimensions will ensure that your mockup image will fit within Etsy's 10 MB file size limit and still have great resolution.
The font that I used for the t-shirt design is "Stay Trendy" by KA Font Designs on Etsy. (I added a "Wave" effect to the text.) www.etsy.com/listing/97745223...

Hi, thank you for the detailed video. Could you please let me know the reason for exporting the final image as a jpeg as opposed to a png or other type? Thank you!

Thank you! I purchased your bundle and I check every two weeks to see what's new! Found this video. I know how to do this too, and I never considered adjusting it for mugs. Argh. 😂Thank you again!
I used the font "Stay Trendy" by KAFontDesigns on Etsy. Here's a link to it! 😊 www.etsy.com/listing/977452234/stay-trendy-font-retro-font-groovy-font?click_key=3b5bed09d8aef1ce9f3beaf3e0ba413d872e499f%3A977452234&click_sum=f12cb0bf&ga_search_query=stay%2Btrendy&ref=shop_items_search_1&pro=1&sts=1 😃I watched these tutorials to learn how to add a font to Photopea.com and give it a wavy effect: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rld9vi846a8.html Here's another great tutorial: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-WR7zsKqYK0U.html
@lisadoesstuff9368 I think I just needed more practice with messing with the "curves" 🤷🏻♀️ honestly I don't know why it was like that but it's gotten better
@@PlaguesPosies curves shouldn't make your image blurry, is your original image a low resolution? if you want i can help you create the shirt mockup :)
@lisadoesstuff9368 I'm not sure, I was using mockups I bought on Etsy and my design only looked grainy after messing with the curves. But I know that makes no sense. Thank you for your kindness and your offer to help but it's actually been working better lately :)
