I love your videos but please for the love of god stop wiggling the curser. We (us simpletons) are trying to watch where you are clicking. When you wiggle it makes it rather difficult haha. Keep up the great work, fantastic video!!!
What a video, such a big help! could anyone please tell me how to get black graphics to show up on the tee, when i do it the black just overpowers the tee shirt
Hey man, great video. I'm very very new to this whole Adobe Illustrator buisness and you've helped me out greatly. Quick question - Can this Vector Tshirt mockup be used on Adobe Draw?
I have a problem when rasterizing the jpeg at 6:00 where the mask didn't disappear. I feel I've already followed the step all the way through, tried from the beginning again, but couldn't figure out what I'm missing. Why wouldn't the mask disappear?
Great tutorial. I have a question though. If I used a jpeg image of a blue shirt with white side panels or white shirt with black side panels, how do I mask the colour so that i can show what different coloured soccer strips could look like .
Question: how do you go about changing the shirt to other colors? I was able to follow all the way through but not sure how to change the image to othrr colors. Thx in advance, your video was very helpful
Awesome video, and awesome shirt... But, quick question. after you create this shirt or any shirt weather it be an image or font heavy, how to go about sending it to a screen printing company to make the shirt for you/ What file do you save it in?
+111DAKIDD You can send this to a screen printer but keep in mind, this is just to show they how it should be printed location-wise. Printers need the final file as a separate document without the mockup. But if you want to send the mockup, just export out as. Jpg or ping file.
+Pixel Moshpit Hey, thanks for the reply. So if I understand this correctly. If I want a company to print lots of shirts for me then I would have to just send them the file of the design (minus the shirt). And that file would be saved and sent as a ping file (PNG file ?). --> So when you copied in your artwork, that would be the file (PNG file) I would sent to them? Correct...
+111DAKIDD Basically you should send them the vector file of the original artwork (.ai, .eps, .pdf) and then the separate mockup image like the one created in the video.(.png, .jpg, .tiff)
+Pixel Moshpit Awesome, I think I understand now... Thanks for the info/help... got yourself a Sub... I am going to check out your other videos to see how to make my project a vector file so I can stop bothering you, hehe... Thanks agin
hi, thanks for your videos, very professional :) i need your help on something, i m just a starter, when I upload my design with PS on the shirt on teespring I see a frame and I do not want to see it I just need to see my design (text or picture), how to do please ? er is something that i have to configure on the photoshop maybe ?
It may be a detail that follows the picture, so just mask the image mask your logo then use a paint brush on the mask to remove those angle of the frame in which is showing in the pic, and that should do the job
Right after I do the clipping mask it creates a layer called opacity mask and deletes both layer 1 and 2. So I can't go back in and edit the color once the mask is made...??? Any ideas on what this might be?
You need to create a shape within the mask that has a white fill. White with add to a mask, as black will delete from it. By default the mask is full black meaning, nothing will be visible until you you add a white filled shape into the opacity mask.
Is there someplace that you post the "just for fun sketches" like the one in this video? I've seen your websites but its all the more professional looking pieces but I find stuff like this interesting...

I'm very new at this, but wondering why you wouldn't use the Trace Bitmap feature to remove the background v. using the method you did? Are there advantages to doing it your way?
nice video man ! Ive got a question tho, after I have traced the shirt I change the fill to white then I cut it before masking it. when I mask it tho I lose my layers and It also won't allow me to see the shirt when its pasted in place ?
Not exactly sure what you're missing. If you trace the shirt and fill the newly created traced object with white, cut that object. Then reselect the image object (shirt image) apply an opacity mask to the shirt image, click the thumbnail for the opacity mask, then paste in place. You should have the same results as in the video, just make sure to exit the mask to get back to layers.
I'm sure the answer to this is somewhere in the comments, but from what I've read already, I can't seem to find it. Can you please point those of us in the right direction who are trying to download it from your link & have the 'no shipping method' error? Please & thank you. Awesome work, btw.

Awesome tutorial and I've probably used it 100 times already. I have a question though...what if I wanted to do a tote bag with a handle where there is empty space within the loop of the handle? How do I trace it so only the bag changes color and not the inside of the loop? Did that make any sense?
Yes, just make sure to enter the opacity mask you created to "cut out" the tote bag, trace the negative space between the handle and bag. Make sure to set this new object you traced, to black thus knocking out that section. Make sure to copy all the objects in the mask, exit the opacity mask. Create a new layer, create a square that covers the area of the tote bag your cutting out. Then, add an opacity mask to this new object as well and "paste in place" the copied mask from the previous mask, in turn cutting it out in the shape of the bag. Use this new object as your color for the bag by exiting the opacity mask and changing this final objects fill color. Hope you get all that! ;) good luck!
+Pixel Moshpit Thanks for such a quick response! I'll try this out in a few days. Looking forward to having time to view more of your tutorials. The biggest problem I'm going to have is creating artwork. I'm no artist!
princeann1 Not sure what you mean by "full color". I assume that the image you grabbed of your search is a jpg. object you pasted into Illustrator. You'll want to select that object then head over to your transparency panel and make sure the objects mode is set to "Multiply". Hope this helps.
Pixel Moshpit Hello, quick question. When I get to the stage where you edit and cut then I go to transparency the image isn't there? What am I doing wrong?
i don't know why people said this tutorial was simple, it was very hard to follow. you need to explain what you are doing as you do it rather than race through whilst twitching about then try to explain stuff.
awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee i did it :) just watch your video and i make a t_shirt thankyouuuuuuuuuuuuu ") ") ")
