[@AnalyZedTruth]

Really great info. Could you answer a question for me? I’m still wondering and struggling to understand what we can and can’t use on a t shirt. If I’m subscribed to pro, I can use any graphic on any shirt as long as I use other graphics/text? Thank you for your time.

[@JasonGandy]

Sure! You can use Canva elements to help create your own custom artwork. But I wouldn’t just use a single graphic from the library with no other customization as your design

[@mikerrabostic9236]

Hi Jason! Thanks for your awesome communication & teaching skills in videos! I created a design with a photo I had turned into a vector image; designed/ordered shirt; the image had some layer of the shade of colors not come out like the image; Any tips on specific resolution or pixel number that could help me with vector print quality? Thank you!

[@JasonGandy]

You’re welcome! Glad you’re finding the content helpful 🙂 Uploaded photos can be tricky sometimes, they need to be really sharp and high quality. Try using the Image Upscaler to increase the quality of your photo www.canva.com/features/image-enhancer/ I’ll be publishing a tutorial on this soon. Best regards!

[@Pucknutz19]

Hey Jason, great video! Thank you for posting it. I have a question... I have an image that I generated using an outside of Canva AI tool. I want to add this image to a tshirt but I want to blend the image into the tshirt better so it doesn't just look like an old fashioned iron on photo. Do you have any videos on something like this? I've tried the blur option with not the greatest of results. Appreciate any guidance!

[@JasonGandy]

Glad you’re finding the content helpful! Maybe try adding a shadow or other supporting elements from the Canva library to enhance the design. But try not to use too much blur, it can look low quality after printing sometimes. Best regards! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hamqp2Ckm6mffa8si=FGMgxD2LMC0VD4h1

[@MSRONI2222]

I have watched and enjoyed your videos. However, when I print the images. They are either too big or too small for my t-shirt. 😩 I do not have canva Pro. I do not know how to solve this issue, although I've been trying to😮

[@afriend8961]

Is the default canvas the only size available in Canva? Do you know if other editors allow for a larger canvas for designs? Thanks!

[@JasonGandy]

You can select any Canvas size you want. Just click the ‘Create a design’ button at the top right of the Canva homepage, then click the ‘Custom size’ option 👍🏽

[@afriend8961]

@@JasonGandy Brilliant! Since you're my first Canva guide, I will keep picking your brain. Lol. I don't know if you do garment pressings (heat press). I've recently learned that to get best color results to convert png with standard RGB to CMYK. Is this accurate or will any sublimation ink and built-in printer settings give you bright colors that pop? God bless! Thanks!

[@JasonGandy]

@@afriend8961 you’re welcome! I’m not too familiar with garment pressing, I mostly use print-on-demand sites like Printful

Hi, I am following your video and am subscribed to Canva Pro. However, I dont see the "Print with Canva" option on the top right? What could be the reason

[@just_vaans]

I am in jamaica how fo I get my designs so I can use it in my physical store

[@CANDICEWATTS-i7k]

Is Canva Pro a good design tool to work with Amazon Merch on Demand?

[@JasonGandy]

For sure!

[@matthewafolabi9088]

Because I have zero design ability. I am currently trying out things, following your video. What I found is that the DPI I am getting is lower than the usually recommended 300 dpi. How can I make this work?

[@petamiliter]

Why i cannot find product catalog for t-shirt when will printing with canva menu ?

[@deniseconwell4069]

I didn’t see any other videos on mirroring your images, or texts I have a problem with my design. Can you help me

Do you have to mirror your design

Nope!

[@Dublyofficial]

[@ilovelearning2]

Is it called tshirt design when you dont print it on the shirt? Just the design?

[@JasonGandy]

Depends on how you plan to use it! It could be a coffee mug design 🙂 But yes, just a design by itself

[@jayslumtv]

All of the templates I choose are being treated as images rather than text and won’t let me edit them.. what am I doing wrong?

[@KatanaPlastik]

For Pro version only😊

[@conniemann4944]

Hi again, sorry if I asked this at some point already. When saving the design file, and moving that slider bar over to 3500x4500 can you explain that a little more? That would increase the quality if the resolution correct? I intend for the design to be made in to a physical product like a screen print transfer. What if I do not want it that large. I hope that makes sense. Thank you again!

[@whitneycomeaux5452]

yes i learned that when rasing the numbers that high that helps the dpi go up to where its suppose to be. when i make an design i out it that high and have it printed out as an dtf and it comes out really good.
