In photoshop was an option that allows you to do the exact same as these sites, but it's only on these newer versions and it's not that magical, but way more useful if you have to modify something if you need to. The tool it's called _Select subject,_ you have to first select the selection brush an then bellow the top menu you will find that button (make sure to select the right layer to make work properly this tool), then as the final step apply that mask to separate to another layer and optionally fixing the mask.

Love your channel dude, I'm just starting out with redbubble and your videos are so helpful! Thank you for what you do, will probably get back with another message when I get my first sales! Keep it up
I got this response from Pexels that contradicts this vid: "You are not allowed to sell the photos or use them on physical products you sell without first updating, modifying, or otherwise incorporating new creative elements into the content to add value and make it your own. This means you cannot simply crop the image, remove the background, apply a filter, overlay a text, change the color of the image, or add simple photo enhancements and then sell the photo. Some examples of what you could do to significantly alter the image to make it your own would be: adding artistic typography and/or other graphic elements to the images; using an element of a Pexels image in a collage; using an element of a Pexels image as a background for your own content."
@@haideralee9293 because you cannot create more pixels out of what is there without losing quality very quickly. The system has to guess what each new pixels colour should be. This does not apply to vectors as they use math to generate the image. JPEGs and pngs etc will not look great if enlarged and printing will make anything pixelated look very tacky and make the image even worse because printing requires a high dpi and large scale image. For example A4 paper at 300dpi(which is the min needed for a sharp image) is approx 3500px X 2400px. That's larger than a hd 1080p BG image(1920x1080). As suggested you may possibly get an ok image when upscaling an image via an AI program but it still won't be great. It's like trying to watch an SD video full screen on a 4k tv, it will look bad and if that is for something that is being sold it will simply not look professional and put people off.
Just wanted to drop a line and say thanks. like 3 years ago i watched your vids and made a bunch of sticker designs in a few days and they consistently bring in $100-$200 every month since then 👍🏻. If i had been making one a day i feel like i could have a 6 figure passive salary right now lol.
I smashed the subscribe button so hard that my thumb broke clean through my phone. That hole in my phone is now providing me with a steady flow of passive income.
I am a sucker when it comes to stickers haha. I love putting them on my laptop, tablet, phone and other electronics. A good and non-destructive way to decorate your stuff if you ask me ( p.s: I probably spent a fortune on stickers and will continue to do so hihi )
You're reading my mind (and not only mine) :))) The first question I came up with, was: but is it legal? Thought to ask about it in comments but I got the answer right in the video. Thanks for your videos - short and packed with the useful info!
You're welcome and thanks so much for your nice comment. And since I've pinned it, here's a reply from Pexels for you and others to see (TL;DR It's all good as expected): "Thanks for reaching out and sorry for the delays! Yes, cutting an element of an image/part of a Pexels photo and removing the background is allowed and considered a modification. Some other examples of what you could do to significantly alter the image to make it your own would be: adding artistic typography and/or other graphic elements to the images; using an element of a Pexels image in a collage; using an element of a Pexels image as a background for your own content."
@@PassiveOwl The word "modification" is quite broad and can be interpeted differetly by different people. So, thanks once again for your video and this message, giving us even more details about it! :)
@@PassiveOwl can you do that background removel trick with other places? other then pexels?? also this video came at the right time for me ;) so thanks for that ;) ;)

Thank you for this great video. I have a question about the pixels. Redbubble required many pixels sizes. Do you think that using a bigger size pixel would work fine for an item asking for smaller pixels. Example: 4500 x 5400 that I use for tee shirt and using this size for a sticker or something else?
This video was really helpful, ive never heard of those sites, will check them out now, also I've been on redbubble for 7 years but have always struggled to make any sales, given up many times but always come back to it, a lot of designs are usually, bizarre, and abstract with psychedelic themes and and i struggle to come up with keywords and writing a description, really bad at selling myself and also at times i find it difficult to come up with a title, a video on keywords and tags for abstract and surreal based artwork would be great, thank you
I admire your persistence. Been at it for about 6 months and yet to make any sales. Hopefully this will change soon now that I'm getting a clue on how to find niches and keywords.
Cheers! See description as I've credited the artist - it's from a site called Chillhop that allows TH-camrs to use music for free. Great idea! I love listening to chillhop while I make my vids. Very calming.
Hi! Do you think it is necessary to resize the photos? Wouldn't the sticker be ok due to its relatively small size?... It's not a huge poster after all....
If you remove background and leave enough space between each sticker, there shouldn’t be any problems. You can test and see how it turned out in sticker preview when you upload them.
I do have a question on how RB sells their products. If I were to make a design for a phone case would I have to have to have the Phone Case or does RB have phone cases where they can then just stick my drawing onto it?
Yes Roberta, they provide the products, print, ship, and do customer service! Sorry for not specifying, I usually make videos with the assumption that people already know about RB.
Great video. Many Thanks. If you don't know where to start and you feel lost because you are having trouble finding a niche, what would your advice be?
Hi, thanks for explaining about Pexel’s license. Could you explain Pixalbay’s license for commercial use? Same thing does removing background and adding some drawings count as making it a unique photo for sale?
I'm immediately impressed by how clear and to the point your message is
I was thinking the exact same thing
Yeah no kidding, this guy could have a solid business just remaking everyone's videos because he gets to the point.
Me too! 👍
Seriously though, kept me interested for the entire video!

convert it into smart object in photoshop, go to image size, change the ppi to 300.
so that you wont lose quality
Yeah, you can be really clever about it! 🚀 Thanks for this awesome video! 🙋🏻♀️
These videos are amazingly helpful! I want to thank you so much for doing them. I can follow them and reproduce what you are doing. Thanks again!
Do you recommend a niche redbubble store or just one store for everything and use collections?
Never ever resize an image larger than its source for printing, unless it's a vector.
why?
@@haideralee9293 because you cannot create more pixels out of what is there without losing quality very quickly. The system has to guess what each new pixels colour should be.

quick tip, for printing the DPI should be 300, 72 is default for screens bu tmay not look very well on print. cheers!
are there any celeb photos there to use for free?
Do you recommend making the design available for other items like shirts, or only sticking to stickers?
Is there a way to check if I can sell from my country? Like is there a list of countries that can or can't sell?

And also why people who use copyright images haven't been shot down?
