A. Prepare all necessary files
Before creating a campaign, you should prepare all necessary artwork files that will be printed on the product. We allow sellers to create product designs by uploading multiple image files (image layers), and adding multiple layers of texts (text layers).
Supported image file formats: .PNG, .JPG, .JPEG, and .PSD. Supported color mode: RGB.
Please visit this link to download our resource package for a simple personalized campaign. In this resource package, you could find the sample assets as following: a .PSD file for the template artwork used in this article, Font files for text personalization, and .PNG files to picture choice personalization.
Please be aware that when using artwork with a transparent background layer, areas without pixels may be automatically trimmed, resulting in a smaller size compared to the actual dimensions when launching the campaign.
For example, the original artwork have dimensions of 2900px x 2900px, due to the transparent background, the uploaded version to the store have smaller dimensions, such as 1910px x 1602px.

To prevent this, it is recommended to place four points (each point representing 1px) in the four corners of the layer during the design phase. This ensures that the image is displayed in the correct position and size as specified in the design.

Our base products are divided into many categories such as All Over Print, Apparel, Home & Living, etc. Find your desired base products in the corresponding category. To have an overview of all product’s specifications, please visit our catalog page.
