Create a T-Shirt Design for a Banana that include:
Image specifications: 15"W x 18"H @ 300ppi (i.e. 4500 x 5400 pixels), sRGB, less than 25MB.
Please use our design templates to make your t-shirts.

CYMK: While you may design your t-shirt using RGB colour space, your t-shirt will be printed using CYMK. CYMK colourspace is not as wide as RGB; for example, metallics and pastels are difficult to render in CYMK.
300 DPI resolution: Your design needs to be 300 DPI, not a lower resolution image resized to 300 DPI. Resizing will result in a pixelated, blocky print.
Less than 25MB files
Design the entire t-shirt: You are submitting a 15" x 18" rectangular artwork using our templates; however, you need to consider that your design is being printed on a t-shirt. Your design should integrate into the t-shirt. Generally speaking, you want to avoid a solid rectangle filling the entire printable area. Your design should work with the t-shirt. Where possible consider the (blank) shirt color in your design, by making that color transparent in your artwork.
Artwork sizing and placement
While you can certainly use the entire 15" x18" in space, often customers find a print that is 18 inches to be overwhelming. By and large, we find that keeping your maximum dimension to 12 inches or fewer results in higher conversion rates.
Be conscious of the placement of design elements and where they would appear in relation to your customer’s anatomy. Remember your designs are printed on men’s, women’s, and kids shirts.
Horizontally center designs visually as well as mathematically. Heavy design elements on one side can make a design feel off balance even if it is mathematically ---------- signs typically do the best when they are placed near the top of the print area.
Types of designs/effects to avoid
Designs that look contained within a rectangular block, especially if the design does not incorporate the color of the shirt (taking a screen capture of a game)
Elements that subtly blend into the shirt color. These can print like a halo with a hard edge. Think how web safe colors have big jumps between colors.
Elements with a transparency less than 20% are likely to get lost when printing, or turn out as a solid ---------- signs that have a single, large logo as the only element of the design
Simple white shirts
Designs that typically sell well
Designs on dark shirts (our t-shirt color selector is organized based on sales)
Distressed designs
Simple, identifiable silhouettes work well with content that has characters
Bold high contrast colors.
Larger art elements in the t-shirt design may get better response to online promotions, as subtler designs are hard to see in thumbnail views of the shirt

T-shirt testing
Every brand is different, but what we’ve found is that most have fans who would love to wear t-shirts with the brand on it. What we never know for sure is what type of designs will appeal to a particular fan base. So we suggest that you test out at least 5 to 6 unique designs. Typically, there are four categories of designs that work well:
Logos
Funny/ inside jokes
Character driven designs, typically doing something
Subtle designs that just look “cool” to non-fans, but a true fan will recognize it
We suggest creating at least one design for each category, and then present each design to your fans. See what works and then iterate.
