5 Tips to Create Winning Designs That Sell (Designing T-Shirts) 🔥 Go from Beginner to Pro Fast!

[@MP-mg7og]

@Detour Shirts 3 things that make your site the best: 1. You're actually an artist and this shows in your designs. 2.your transparency ppl are getting tired of 'get rich scheme' videos that make POD seem so easy 3. You explain extremely clearly, you actually teach technical and art skills. 👌👌👌👌

[@DetourShirts]

Thank you... Great 3 points... I hope to keep it up

[@SophieMarnez]

I really appreciated the process of starting from almost “nothing” and enriching the design little by little. It seems to be easer that trying to hit the sophisticated version in the first place ;-)

[@DetourShirts]

Glad that was helpful

[@JayLangly]

Look up 'Informal Balance' or 'Formal Imbalance'. Plus 'Uniting' a 'Variety' of Elements. Negative space plays a part as well.

Remember, kids, no more than 2 fonts. 2. As for colors, Adobe Illustrator has a build in Color Guide palette. It’s dope.

You Da Man Man, this is the longest part of my design process I make the design in an hour or two then I spend 2 days just looking at it thinking "what the hell is wrong with it? I know there's something wrong" I think I doubt myself too much ha!

[@DetourShirts]

It comes with practice... The more you do the better and faster you will get... keep going.... I have the same problem sometimes... a lot of times I just say, "this is good enough" and upload it so I can move on.

Thanks Juna! When I do text for a shirt, I usually end up with white text having a black outline so that the text will show on all colors of shirts. Is there another way around this problem?

[@DetourShirts]

Great question... I like to make 2 versions... I use dark text for light color shirts and light text on dark color shirts

[@rokoroo]

@@DetourShirts Do you make a reference in the description to the other version where they can have a dark/light shirt color? Or do they just figure that out for themselves?

[@tinam.9810]

Juna, I wish I could your videos are always so helpful! You've been in this business for quite some time. So, maybe you know the answer: I came across a redbubble shop, opened Jan. this year (not even a month) with 12.000 likes! 250 designs only with geo. patterns, all in the same style, nothing special. Is it realistic, to have such results? Maybe there are ways I dont know.

[@DetourShirts]

Sure.. If you know how to drive traffic to it...Yes... 250 designs wouldn't take that long... you get a max of 60 designs a day... It would only take you about 5 days to upload that many.... completely possible.

[@tinam.9810]

@@DetourShirts Thanks for the reply. One can upload even more designs in this period. What surprised me A LOT was the number of likes. More than 12.000 likes in max. 25 days for a very medium quality and the same style designs... Even if they got the traffice, I cant believe so many people could like those designs. And almost no followers... Anyway, thanks

[@marlene97992]

Hi Juna! Another excellent video! Would you mind sharing why you choose to work with CMYK since RGB has a larger and brighter color range? Does affinity designer only work with CMYK? Thank you!😃

[@DetourShirts]

Good question! It's because eventually the colors will have to be CMYK when it goes to print. The brighter colors in RGB will have to be turned into something not so bright. I rather know what I'm getting.

[@marlene97992]

@@DetourShirts yes, agreed. So Redbubble and Amazon only print in CMYK? Printful requests their files in RGB but I know some other POD companies only print in CMYK.

[@NiazMohammad]

Another great video. Thanks Juna. I have a question though. On RB, while positioning our designs, do we top align always? Say, my design is not actually utilizing the whole of 4500x5400 px, what do I do then? Align it center or top alignment?

[@DetourShirts]

I usually top align and then bring it down to make sure the design is over the chest... I will depend on the design so you will have to eyeball it

Hi, I want to ask I'm an artist I have a few artworks I want to put on some shirts but the problem I'm in tier 10 on MBA the only way to get out of tier 10 is chasing trends or I go to upload my artworks to shirts because I see your store you have a lot of Japanese styles art ramen kawaii, etc... I want to do some art like this but is saturated my question is I put my artworks in shirts and wait until get some sales or just do like others do chasing trends ?? and thank you

[@DetourShirts]

It's not the only way to get out of tier 10... You could buy your own shirts, you could make shirts for family and friends, you could do evergreen designs and wait. You can design what you want but just realize that just because you like it, it doesn't mean other people will want to buy it. BTW, I don't think the Japanese art is saturated... you just need to have something else that audience will want to buy.
