How to Size Printable Wall Art to Sell on Etsy - Print File Size Guide

[@Beefn00b]

This is the most helpful video I’ve seen on this topic. And the fact you made the PSD files available to download - you’re a legend! Thank you!!!!

[@brandontimothy]

I'm so glad you liked the video and the resources provided! Thanks for watching.

[@AdventureJenni]

Additionally, I want to tell you how much I appreciate your video title... it is very distinctive from the tutorials on how to size pictures for the listings on Etsy... I've been having a harder time finding the instructionals on how to create the files that will actually go to the customers!

[@MikeG-js1jt]

This is by far the easiest ratio adjustment method I have thus far seen............ thank you Asian American Man!

[@brandontimothy]

You're welcome! :)

[@therandomhero76]

I'm just starting out myself...I've started creating original art that I want to sell...the free download of size guides and PSD files are great, thank you!

[@Iy958]

This is the best , simplest explanation of file sizing. Thank you! Helped me get my shop setup so much easier.

[@doodictimagineanything1959]

thankyou sir, i just setted up my etsy store and have been referring a lot from your videos. both inspiring and educating. hope my shop goes well.

[@brandontimothy]

Best of luck to your Etsy seller journey!

[@willpower3317]

How’s it going?

[@titis1950]

This is the most generous video I've seen on this topic. thank you!!!

[@nicolaan1960]

Finally an easier explanation for my brain. Thank you, and thank you for the files.

[@MinaRoy]

This is so incredibly helpful! Thank you so much for a very thorough and raw tutorial, Brandon! I've been researching so much regarding what the most time-efficient method of exporting multiple images for printables was (from automated batches to custom PS actions) and this just makes the process simple and clean.

[@brandontimothy]

Welcome! I'm glad you found the tutorial helpful, and thank you for your kind words! Happy creating. 😊

[@aricar325]

It is generous and kind of you to share your experience, knowledge and templates. Thank you! I bought some art from you in 2019, and you've inspired me to try my hand at selling some of my own art on Etsy. This video was very helpful. Just liked and subscribed, and will watch your other videos with great interest. Cheers!

[@avnhealth]

I was so happy to find this! I've just started with wall art and had NO IDEA how to size the images. Thank you so much!

[@brandontimothy]

Glad I could help!

[@homecookingwithtony]

Thanks mate. That was exactly what I was missing. I've already done a heap of art. I was just waiting to find the sizes so I can upload them to Etsy and other print on demand places. Thank you for your generosity.

[@Nowayjose-vd1wm]

Great video.. Just set up an Etsy Shop this week and now I can see that I will be editing every single one of my listings... 😂. I've been doing a single file, now that I see this it only makes sense to have the 5 different so the end user is able to do as they please. Now once I get this done.. I'm going to pray for a sale lol

[@RoRo-cf5hy]

Thank you for listening to our concern, SIZING! You are the best as always, Brandon🤗.

I have watched it earlier too. Came in yt suggestion three times. I woujd like to see step by step on etsy wall art till product listing and learn n do.

[@raspberrysoda341]

New subscriber here. Thanks so much for the templates, Brandon! So many KZbinrs talk about how to make money with digital art, but none share so much detail! I appreciate you!

[@AdventureJenni]

Hahaha OMG I'll have to watch this one about 10 times, maybe then I'll get it! I always thought I was a fast learner... until now! Thanks for this video! Great help, truly! :)

[@emilypascale]

I rarely comment on video but I HAVE to thank you for this!! I was getting so confused and this is the exact video i was looking for. Thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!

[@MamboFerido]

Hey man, I really appreciate the file size download link! Helped a lot big time!

[@brandontimothy]

[@katieshelton7974]

Great Video! Thank you for including the sizing templates! The sizing has been stopping me from designing. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for your time and help!

I'm glad this video was helpful for you. Happy designing!

[@CindyScinto]

I love this instructional video! Great job! I was pulling my hair out and you did a great job of explaining it. And big THANK YOU for the templates!

You are a saint! Thank you so much this is exactly what I needed!

[@brandontimothy]

Glad it helped!

[@sansonemily6731]

I agree. So simply explained and exactly what I needed.

[@magssm]

@@brandontimothycan I ask a question? I’ve managed to covert my digital wall art into 5 different sizes but how do I actually add that to ETSY? I can’t see a variation option like physical products? I just see the option to upload 5 files but I’m not sure how the customer is able to chose the size they want? Thanks

[@toraedesigns4704]

​@@magssmwhen the customer buys the file, they will get 5 files of different sizes, and they will print out the size they need. No variations needed, just add all the aspect ratios in the listing

[@followmesky]

Thanks, finally someone not using Canva to show us the resizing

[@kerstinrao2651]

Thank you! This was helpful and I appreciate the PSD files you shared.

[@carolberridge6102]

Thank you! Thank you! Easy to listen to and generous. All the best to you.

[@maryezell3888]

If your image is pixels (JPEG), convert it to a vector format (SVG). Then you can scale up to an image the size of a billboard if you could find a paper printer to process it! There will be no blurry pixilizations, faceted colors or ragged edges.

[@lisamaria1021]

Hello. What process do you uses to convert to vector? Thank you.

[@traceydickson7371]

Thanks! You took this to a higher level. And actually simplified it for me.

[@DTM-Books]

Thank you very much. I need this information in order to set up my Etsy shop to sell my photography. I'm very thankful and will be using this video for reference, as well as consulting your other videos. Much thanks!

[@thefacelessbiz]

New to picture / poster selling. This video is awesome. The download also works with Affinity Photo / Designer, which is a great, cheap alternative to paying PS / AI SUBSCRIPTIONS. Liked and Sub'd. Thanks.

Happy to help! 😃

[@yenart3011]

Thank you so much. You've saved my life. Been struggling with it for a while.

[@carnegard]

Great video, thanks for your insight! I actually made a script that resizes one image to all those ratios automatically and saves them as new files with the ratio in the name. I got so tired to do this with all my images hehe

[@musictheory4u153]

How?

[@RhodeIslandDivorce]

@carnegard I did almost the same thing. I commissioned a javascript programmer to create the script for me but I didn't have it resize the photos because no javascript can properly decide the cropping the image when you go from say a 2:3 Ratio to a 4:5 Ratio. That's something that takes a human eyeball and preference for what might be clipped by the ratio difference. Just my take on it anyway. I might see if further scripting could help but I heard of someone who tried the same thing and while it did the job, the images just didn't come out the way the artist expected and consequently some customers might not be happy. Since reviews on Etsy and other forums plan a big role, I'd rather eyeball it. Perhaps AI will get into everyday scripting but we're not quite there yet.

[@RhodeIslandDivorce]

@@musictheory4u153 You can have someone prepare a script for you. I did... but I didn't go as far as the resizing and cropping. To me that takes a good human eye.

[@lightningflower0]

Thanks so much for this video and the templates! This is extremely helpful since I am just getting started in selling digital prints!

That was awesome, thank you so much - you explained it so well! I am now no longer confused :)

[@TheMindMattersAcademy]

Super helpful, thank you for putting this and the resources together!

[@brandontimothy]

You're welcome! 😀

[@28SongTube28]

But why do you have RGB mode when for printing you should use CMYK? And it seems this preparation of the file sizes can only be easily done when the design has white space around it right? Otherwise you would always see that it doesn't fit correctly..

[@gabrielamunteanu8795]

Thank you so much, i am very gratefull to you! Saved my life,my time and keep me away from lots of worrying and confusion as i am new to all this. Thank you!

[@brandontimothy]

[@gabrielamunteanu8795]

@@brandontimothy Could you do a video where you explain how to do Square print sizes for Etsy?

[@RhodeIslandDivorce]

@@gabrielamunteanu8795 Did you figure this out? It's essentially a 1:1 Ratio 4x4, 8x8, 10x10, etc.. You just either create it that way or if your art is perhaps a 2:3 ratio you have to put in in the 1:1 Ratio size you want and crop it so it displays the best part of your art. Some cropping is going to occur regardless unless you make larger artwork real small so it fits within your square borders.

what about landscape digital print art? do we just change the orientation of the design template from portrait to landscape?

[@guidoraw1826]

I have a question please...I have a digital image ratio 3:4 , but i want to divide it in 3 part to sell it on etsy as Triptych ( i divide it on photoshop with "guide layout " ),.Now each image is not anymore with 3:4 ratio, so how can i convert it again to sell it in all format ? Thank you for the video and i hope you can answer.

[@paulahawthorne7807]

I was wondering this exact something ,@brandontimothy has a tutorial on doing a Triptych but does not explain how to get the images back to the correct file size or how to put them together in files..Ingredients are missing from this recipe. and they are the important ones...

[@z-mackdos6echo311]

Okay, you got my interest on the topic. Having been an adjunct instructor in universities and community colleges, that you stay on topic. Meaning just present all of the core information, and then back track and cover the variables. I’m guessing you’ve only worked with PS. I don’t, so I’m wondering if I could use Procreate to achieve the same quality and functionality that you do with PS. Also I doubt I could achieve or duplicate my work using PS no matter how powerful and flexible that software is. But like standards setup for businesses they’re align themselves to one specific software for ease of usage and connectivity. But this is an intriguing endeavor I would like to pursue as a passive income financial revenue resource. I will watch your other videos to see what it takes to setup the same operation you have established. You know and have all the useful information for your audience needs to learn. Just stay relaxed and don’t let that part of your brain be interrupted by what is called The Monkey Mind, because it’s what’s filtering into your presentation which is steering you on time consuming and unproductive tangents, and taking you off your primary topic. Try scripting a rough draft on the topic you’re about to discuss with bullet points you want to address as a guide to keep you from veering off course as many time as you had in this one video. One last thing. I’m not a windows PC user. How much different will this task be to accomplish?

[@ToruKurosawa]

Can you sell landscape pictures? if so do you use the same sizes but just rotate the canvas?

[@brandontimothy]

Yes, you can!

[@justpassingthrough6550]

So if I am using a photograph, I would need to resize that image to the largest size I would offer, then insert that into the templates?

This is just what I needed, thank you!

[@danielchladek5866]

Your image size of the 2x3 Ratio file is 6000 x 9000 (300 ppi). In the Ratio & Sizes document you are stating that you can print a 24"x36" but that won't hold the 300 ppi. Any reason why you decided to make the size 6000 x 9000 and not higher?

[@Hombrebrisa]

Thanks Tim, would it be possible for you to make a video on how to save the images, whether on the hard drive or the computer and especially how to save and organize the image folders in Google Drive? One more question, I use topaz gigapixel to enlarge the images, is that program good or do you recommend a better one? thank you very much for sharing so much, greetings

[@janetgarciafineart6324]

i have learned with you so much. You just opened lots of possibilities for me. Thanks

[@brandontimothy]

So happy to hear that! Thanks for watching

[@elijahbaley5895]

Thanks for your tutorial and your help, but what about the bleeds, trim area and crop marks? I think preparing the canvas with these characteristics is very important. I still don't know if the bleeds have to be within the format (aspect ratio) or outside. If they are outside, should the original image be enlarged to cover the bleeds? If so, if my original image, for example: 3:4 (7200 x 9000 pixels, upscaled) when enlarging the image to cover the bleeds, I would lose print quality since I would cover those 3mm on each side of the bleed. I would really appreciate it if you could clarify this for me. Thanks in advance

[@elincelina]

Hi! I understand we making the biggest size in each ratio, but how about the international one. We making the 50x70cm only, then customers can scale down to these other sizes? Thanks 🫣
