Excited that this is so popular!!
I’ve submitted another class for Thursday, March 3rd for 7pm - 10pm. It should be on the calendar soon.
In prep for the upcoming class should we bring photos/art work of what we want to print? If so, preferred format and pixel size?
Yes, bring photos/artwork/logos (only things that you have a legal right to use).
For photos, I prefer PNG, and for vector designs, EPS or SVG is what you will need.
The photo size is a little more complicated. On fabrics (shirts and hats), you can generally get away with printing at 200dpi, Therefore an 8" x 10" image would need to be 1600px x 2000px. On hardgoods (mugs, ornaments, photo panels, etc.), you really want to be able to produce the image at 300dpi. A typical 11oz. coffee mug would take a 8" x 4" image, so you would need an image that was 2400px x 1200px. Bigger is better.
For vector designs, size doesn’t matter, since it can be scaled as needed.
Cary, what is the aspect ratio / size for the hat image? And is the shirt image portrait or landscape? Thanks!
Chris
The heat press for the hats can hear an area 5-1/4" wide by 3" tall. The image for shirts can be either landscape or portrait orientation.
Interesting. Eventbrite shows “Sales Ended” for the 3 March class. Did it hit the limit?
No, when I copied the event from the previous one I forgot to change the closing date on the tickets. I have updated it, and there are 5 tickets remaining. Thanks for the heads up on this.
No problem. I was just about to grab one of those slots when I remembered that I have a conflict. Boo for me.
There will be another class going up on the schedule soon.
March 3rd I believe is the next class. Lots of people interested!
Yes, March 3rd is the next class, and there are 4 tickets left. After tonight’s class I’ll evaluate and post another class for March.
Based on tonight’s class I have reduce the class size for the March 3rd class to 7 people. There is one spot remaining. I’ll get another class on the schedule soon.
Thanks to everyone that came tonight.
Tonight’s class was great! Thank you so much for teaching!! I can’t wait to make more things Here’s a pic of the items I made for anyone curious about the results
I think Merissa’s coffee mug was considered the most awesome, it even looked like it was under the glaze.
Yes, her logo worked so well on the mug. It did look like it was under the glaze.
When is the next class? Your past two classes have filled quickly.
I’m putting in a request today for Thursday, March 10th, for the next class.
When is the next class? I just now saw this post about last night.l…
Here is the main thread where we’ve been posting updates for Dye Sublimation classes
I just held one last night… I’m sure we can get another one up before the end of the month if there is enough demand. Please post on the thread I linked so we can keep tabs on the current demand.
Also, kinda sorta related, I’m holding a very basic class tonight at 6 PM on how to use the Silhouette Cameo and heat transfer vinyl to decorate with. I’m fixin to head out right now to purchase items for the class to decorate.
Here’s a link to the post about it:
