I'm having a lot of trouble comprehending the submission guidelines, lol. Trolling the forum now but I think I don't know what I don't know

oh go for it! what's the question?

our submission guides are REALLY confusing

i didn't understand them until i worked there

I get that the 640x800 is the preview size you submit. But if it was approved, what file format are they even looking for?

the halftone tutorial was awesome but then it looked like he turned everything back into a flat jpg at the end, don't they still need the colours broken out?

12x16 max size

300 dpi

oh dont worry about halftoning

that's my job

feel free to just point me at the right place in the forums or whatever, I'm just lost, lol

and if it's going into gallery or collections, its going to be dtg printed and in that case, halftonin would just cause printer issues

no I get the size restrictions. I mean are they looking for jpg, psd, what?

so don't halftone it, just submit it

OH preferrably psd

but like

if there was any issue with the file

okay now I'm MORE confused hahaha, I thought they said you had to use halftones to get shading

it's literally my job to email you

YEAH

the no halftones is recent and we just started that

tshirt printing, mind

yeah just make your shirt however you want

shade however you want

just don't do any crazy distress or dithery textures

still a 6 colour limit?

because that would make my life hell

EEEEEHHHHHHH

THE SIX COLOR THING IS KIND OF A 'guideline'

you do you, boo.

if it gets in gallery or collection, it's gonna be dtg printed and that's infinite colors

do I still split the colours out on layers in the psd, I assume?

uuuummm work however you wanna work

however is easier for you

if it gets accepted and there's any issues, i'd just ask you directly

this is probably all pointless since I doubt it will be accepted - or sell if it does - but hey, worth trying, right? lol

yeah!

if you want, i could take a look at the design and push you in the right direction!

i'm not in charge of accept/declines at all

but i know how shirts work :'D

lol i'm mostly just so pissed at this whole nonsense with Cap, and I loved Evans' reaction so much

I imagine it's probably too obscure, but my friend made me do it, lol

thank you for the help, you are amazing ^___^

LMFAO

I LOVE IT

but we'd never run it

it's too controversial

we just declined like 5 of them today because of the controversy

buuuuuut you could throw that on Teepublic and Redbubble and def get that money money

because it would definitely sell

if you market it to the right people

lol probably not if there are five other submissions today alone

they weren't specifically that

but it was basically anything alluding to hydracap

but i really like it

aw thank you. Can't draw for crap but I can photoshop half decently, haha

I do crazy shit like this, lol

omg

i miss doing those

I WISH I HAD THE TIME

also dem crossover ships

you know chichirinoda and I are posting a Snart/Bucky fic, right? Hee

omg i had no idea

i thought you guys were rping it

we did, and now I'm fleshing it out and we're posting it. Two chaps up already on AO3 ^_^

and another friend and I are doing a Steve/Felicity in the same universe, hence the banner lol

archiveofourown.org/coll...

oh man

that's so cool

/bookmarks

hee! Hoping to have chapter 3 up this weekend

how do you even market something like this, anyway? the design, I mean, heh

I guess social media presence. That thing I suck at

pretty much!

sometimess they market themselves but it's rare y'know?

i only have 600 followers on tumblr but thats the only place where i have a presence

i have an fb page and instagram too but im still not that active :X

your designs are awesome though ^_^

LOL thanks. they're still slim pickin's

but they're a start!

how goes the job itself? Still enjoying it?

yeah! i mean it's got its issues like all jobs. The commute is hell for me, but its really fun!

we do dumb photoshoots and make dumb jokes about things

and the whole office makes fun of me and one other guy for being team iron man

AND NOW WE KEEP THROWING THE HYDRA THING IN THEIR FACES

becasue we assholes

heeee. Rub it in, you deserve it

its p. fun haha
