Answers to your commonly asked questions!
Artwork and Design
-
Q: What image quality do you recommend for printing?
A: For best results, we recommend images at 1200 dpi, though 300 dpi is the minimum required. Be sure to verify your image quality before uploading. And as always, we suggest ordering sample shirts before placing a bulk order.
-
Q: Can you check my artwork before printing?
A: Unfortunately, we cannot review artwork before printing. Your design will be printed exactly as it’s uploaded. We recommend double-checking everything and ordering a sample shirt before placing a bulk order to make sure it looks perfect!
-
Q: I’m great at drawing but not so good with Illustrator or Photoshop. Can you help turn my drawing into a print-ready file?
A: We do not currently offer artwork services via direct website purchases, but there are great tools out there! Try using a graphic designer or online tools like Canva or Adobe Express to turn your drawings into print-ready digital files. Remember to order a sample shirt before going big with your order!
Printing Process and Techniques
-
Q: What is Direct-to-Garment (DTG) printing, and how is it different from screen printing?
A: DTG printing is a modern method where your design is processed by a computer and printed directly onto your shirt. Screen printing is an older technology that involves creating a stencil (a "screen") and applying layers of ink to the shirt, with each color requiring its own stencil. DTG is ideal for high-detail designs and smaller orders, with no minimum quantity, while screen printing usually has a minimum order requirement. DTG allows us to produce a single shirt cost-effectively, making it perfect for one-off designs or smaller batches!
-
Q: Why does the DTG colored shirt I received feel stiff or have a "box stain" on it?
A: No worries! This is just part of the Direct-to-Garment (DTG) printing process. The "box stain" is from a special pretreatment used to keep your design looking vibrant and long-lasting. It will wash out after the first wash.
-
Q: Do you offer screen printing or embroidery?
A: We are not accepting screen printing or embroidery orders at the moment. Stick with us for awesome DTG & DTF prints!

Q: Can I get different designs or colors for my shirts?
A: Absolutely! You can mix and match colors within the same shirt style. As long as it’s the same style, you can even have different designs on each shirt.
-
