design is the most important part of your purchase with us so we try to
make it the best that it can be. We've seen hundreds of designs so we
know from experience what will work and what wont.

| If
you do send a bitmap, please remember generally graphics from the web
will not work on larger size printing purposes. Generally, web graphics
are 72 or 96 dpi (dots per inch) and 200 dpi sized is the absolute
smallest that will work for cotton shirt printing at exact size so
there's no fudging. That's not including finer fabrics, which are at
least 600 dpi. Plus web designs are very small when printed if you're
sending it to re-draw then no problem but as actual artwork it will not
work. If you are using illustrator or Corel Draw or any other vector / Postscript type artwork, please convert your text to curves Corel Draw (Arrange / Convert to Curves or "Ctrl Q" on PC. "Command Q on a MAC") or "make outlines" in illustrator (Type / Create Outlines or "Ctrl + Shift O" on a PC. "Command + Shift O" on a MAC)
