Here's a link to Etsy's listing image requirements: www.etsy.com/legal/policy/listing-image-requirements/253962679005?ref=list

You could also redo the picture with your own blank shirt and decorate how you want. You can then use that same picture for your other designs as well, as it'll always be blank.

Are you making the shirts or using a "Print-on-Demand" service?

@@mockuploft I upload own designs to POD sites, which have mockups etc.

@@creatwinkles Here's a link to a tutorial that shows you how to create more realistic looking mockups with the free website Photopea.com: th-cam.com/video/tErjU7iLVK8/w-d-xo.html Also, place your design on the mockup exactly the same size and placement of your POD product listing. :)

@@mockuploft thank you very much!

Etsy recommends using an aspect ratio of 4:3 which will be 2500 pixels (width) by 2000 pixels (height) for horizontal or landscape images. (2000 x 2000 pixels for a square crop of the mockup image.) These pixel dimensions will ensure that your mockup image will fit within Etsy's 10 MB file size limit and still have great resolution.

The font that I used for the t-shirt design is "Stay Trendy" by KA Font Designs on Etsy. (I added a "Wave" effect to the text.)

Oops! That link did not work, try this one: www.etsy.com/listing/977452234/stay-trendy-font-retro-font-groovy-font?click_key=3b5bed09d8aef1ce9f3beaf3e0ba413d872e499f%3A977452234&click_sum=f12cb0bf&ga_search_query=stay%2Btrendy&ref=shop_items_search_1&pro=1&sts=1

Yes, this tutorial is for creating mockups with a unique photo of a specific brand of shirt. :)

Exporting the file as a PNG works too! :)

@@mockuploft thank you. Wasn't sure if there was a quality difference.

PNG files are better quality, however if you're trying to keep your file size under 10 MB for Etsy listing images, I might save it as a jpeg file. :)

@@mockuploft Ok, makes sense. Thank you!

Hi! Here's a link to the mockup that I used for this tutorial: mockuploft.etsy.com/listing/1283970241

@@KamauTheQuietWarya 2024 Update: Canva is always updating and changing the layout and functionality of the platform. Follow these updated instructions for importing the mockup image: 1. Click on "Create a design" and scroll down to "Import file" then "Open". 2. Click on "Use in a new design" then choose "Custom size". (In order to fit within Etsy's 10 MB file size limit, type in 2500 (width) x 2000 (height) pixels, or type 2000 x 2000 pixels (Units - px) to create a square listing image.) 3. Click on "Create new design". 4. Adjust the mockup image to fit to the edges of the design area by dragging the corners of the image out the edges of the design. (Cropping of the image may occur.) Follow the rest of the steps in the video! :)

After you open the file in Photopea, go to "Image" in the top menu then go down to "Image size...". Change the width to 2200 Pixels then click "OK".

I used the font "Stay Trendy" by KAFontDesigns on Etsy. Here's a link to it! 😊 www.etsy.com/listing/977452234/stay-trendy-font-retro-font-groovy-font?click_key=3b5bed09d8aef1ce9f3beaf3e0ba413d872e499f%3A977452234&click_sum=f12cb0bf&ga_search_query=stay%2Btrendy&ref=shop_items_search_1&pro=1&sts=1 😃I watched these tutorials to learn how to add a font to Photopea.com and give it a wavy effect: th-cam.com/video/rld9vi846a8/w-d-xo.html Here's another great tutorial: th-cam.com/video/WR7zsKqYK0U/w-d-xo.html

Agree!

this may be because you are stretching the image?

@lisadoesstuff9368 I think I just needed more practice with messing with the "curves" 🤷🏻‍♀️ honestly I don't know why it was like that but it's gotten better

@@PlaguesPosies curves shouldn't make your image blurry, is your original image a low resolution? if you want i can help you create the shirt mockup :)

@lisadoesstuff9368 I'm not sure, I was using mockups I bought on Etsy and my design only looked grainy after messing with the curves. But I know that makes no sense. Thank you for your kindness and your offer to help but it's actually been working better lately :)

@@PlaguesPosies that's good :) and no worries

difficult, but can through Canva pro
