Rough T-shirt Artwork

Posted on December 30, 2010 by pc

Rough Artwork – If your design is not in a properly built in a digital design format, it must convert it to one before a T-shirt can be printed.

Images poached from the web and faxed or copied materials that are low resolution may not be acceptable and will be used for concept only. All we get from this is a starting point, but we are started which is sometimes the most difficult part of the process. So if your having trouble getting started send me what you have and we can get started.

Time is money so the the largest, sharpest, cleanest original images you have available deliver the best results at the most economical price.

I charge by the hour to perform this service and will provide an estimate of the time required to do so before any work is done. The quality of materials I work from will determine the cost and accuracy of the finished file. Email Me
