In this video I show how to create a tshirt design using the website Placeit. Although Placeit is known more for t-shirt mockups they also have a section of their site to create tshirt designs. You don't need any design skills. Perfect for the person who doesn't know how to draw or use graphic design apps.

Man, I love placeit, i use it to the fullest, the only issue I have is they have so many styles (specifically typography), i often spend hours locating the style I want or I make a variation of what's in my head.. also some allow certain # of letters and certain # of add text lines, but I figured ways around it.. also they have an image cropper/resizer it's awesome,, thank god for placeit I suck at photopea/photoshop and inkscape, trying to still learn tho.

Hiya June - I love your videos as they are super informative and easy to follow along with - keep up the great work. Question: It seems like some tee graphic templates will permit additional text and others do not? The other day I was attempting to create 7 lines of text and the "add additional text" menu would not appear after I created 4 lines of text. So my question is how do you add say 6 or 7 lines of text using their tee design templates? Thanking you in advance - Michael

@DetourShirts 3 жыл бұрын

If you are designing on Placeit you are limited to what they can do.... those templates are cool but they have their limitations.... If you really want no limitations on the amount of lines you may have to pick up an graphics application like Illustrator or Affinity Designer.

I'm about to start doing print on demand on Amazon, Tee spring and Redbubble but I'm not exactly sure what type of designs to go with. Do I sell shirts with designs that take a while for the first while then switch to simple texted based with a graphics? Also, would it be worth it to buy the "100 Scalable T-Shirt Quotes" for when I get the ball rolling on Amazon? EDIT: One more thing, are there any stores that I should keep niche specific?

@DetourShirts 3 жыл бұрын

When starting out I would do the style that you are most comfortable with. Your style will depend on the audience you are designing for and the competition. It's not one size fits all. Scalable designs do the best on Amazon when you are in the higher tier. Remember the print on demand business is a slow one. Many people jump in thinking they can upload 1000 designs and get it going faster. It doesn't work that way. It takes time to figure out what works for you. Then you can scale. I don't think you need to be niche specific until you find a niche that really works. Hope that helps.

Hi Juna. Great channel! I'm using PlaceIt templates for some of my designs. Question: I can't make some of the design lettering and image really big and bold. I get those elements as big as I can in the PlaceIt template. Will the person printing the TShirt make the design appear bigger? Hope you understand the question. I'm new to designing and learning along the way. Cheers from Canada!

How ever big you make the design on the upload is how big the design will be on the shirt. Sometimes it can be bigger than you think.... It good to order a sample if you are concerned with the size and want to get it just right

i got a few questions though. i am just curious 1)if i used placeit from what i understand you can resize to 4500 by 5400 which is for merch by amazon using the free resize tool correct? 2) placeit designs default comes with rgb or cmyk?, does it matter? and should i try attempt to change it using converter from rgb > cmyk? 3) i tried using the free account today, i only see the DPI is set to 72 by default. apparently it doesn't support to 300 dpi which is for fine printing. Does it matter on my print on demand products or it will look pretty bad when i print out on a physical product?

@DetourShirts 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the questions. I'll try to answer them. 1) Yes you can resize your design using their resize tool. I didn't show it in the video but placeit has a resize tool. 2) It in the end it doesn't really matter. Just try to stay away from the really bright colors. There is no good way to print those. 3) It says 72 DPI but if you resize it to 4500 x 5400 you will be fine. It's a transparent PNG which is exactly what you need.
