How do we use the Online Design Studio?

Step 1: Choose your product.
Pick a category
From the list that comes up from that category, click on the product.
Choose a color by clicking on the color square.

Step 2: Create Your Design.
You can add clip art, add text, upload your own art, or any combination of the three.
When adding clip art, click on a category (and a subcategory if provided) and then pick an image by clicking directly on it.
The image will load in the center of the t-shirt.
For a few seconds, you will see a box made of a dashed outline. This outline shows the area in which we can physically screen print on the t-shirt .
Remember to keep all your design components within this boundary

Moving Your Image:
Move your image on the t-shirt by clicking and holding on the image and then moving it where you wish.

Changing Size:
You can also change the size and rotation of the image by using the slide bars for Width, Height and Rotate.
 
Ink Colors:
Clicking on the color box (which defaults to black) brings up your choices for ink colors.
Click on the color you want in order to customize the color of your image.

Using Your Own Image (Art)
Use the “Upload Your Own Art” function. You will need a jpg at 72 dpi for use in the Design Studio and also a high resolution image for the Art Staff to work with.

Adding Text:
Adding text to your t-shirt is similar to adding clip art.
Type the line of text you want.
Separate lines of text will need to be entered as individual lines.
Choose a category of font styles
Click on the individual font that you want.
Your text will appear in the center of the t-shirt.
It can be moved around in the same way that images are, and you have the same options to change the size, rotation, and color.
There are also Text Effect tools which allow you to arc text up or down on your t-shirt and also change the spacing, letter size, and size of the arc.

Design Back of Shirt:
Click the “Switch Side” button.
All of the above options for art and text can also be used on the back of your t shirt.
Proceed with your customized design.

Adding Additional Types of Shirts or Products:
Click on the Step 1 tab and choosing an additional type of product. A different shirt or product can also have its own ink colors, but the design itself must stay the same. Up to six different textiles can have the same screen print design.

Step 3: Choose Quantities and Receive Quote

Step 4:  Save your design.
New Customers: Create an Account to save your design.
Old Customers: Please login to save your design.

You can save a design and then come back to it later to make changes before placing an order.
You can also save variations on a design by giving each one a separate, distinct name.

Step 5:  Check Out.
Fill out the fields as directed.
Pay with a major credit card.
You can choose from Regular delivery or Rush service.
