Art

Q: Will my shirt image be as clear as my photograph or printout?
A: No. Our process for printing on textiles is at a level of 300 dpi or 1,400 x 1,400 however, cotton as a substrate or print surface does not produce as high of a resolution as photo paper or canvas which we use at PictureCrafters.com . While the color and image quality are good, they are not as crisp or detailed as a photograph. Screenprinted textiles are printed at 55 lpi whereas color pictures can print at upwards of 200 lpi.
Refunds are not given because an image on a shirt doesn't equal the print quality of a photo.

Q: My art skills are lacking, can you help?
A: A member of our Art Department will review all work submitted for printing. If needed, changes will be recommended. If you are having trouble working out your design, our Art Staff will be happy to guide you through the process.
See FAQ "Do you charge for artwork?" for more detailed information.

Q: Do you charge for artwork?
A: Coloranywear.com allows you to do your own designing, so there is no artwork charge for work done on the online designer. You may call us for assistance with your design for no charge. If custom artwork is needed, there will be a separate charge for this.
Uploaded art must be high resolution (300 dpi). The Art Staff can work with art of lower resolution, but having them do so will incur a separate art charge, billed at $25.00 per half hour.

Q: My logo looks fuzzy when I upload it, will it print this way?
A: No, we use low resolution images for proofing. The image that would actually be used to make the screen will be high resolution, therefore your imprint will be high quality.
If you are uploading your own art it must be high resolution (300 dpi). The Art Staff can work with art of lower resolution, but having them do so will incur a separate art charge, billed at $25.00 per half hour.
