Step 1… Get Template. Go to the Add a T-shirt Design and Click on the Highlighted T-shirt Template. A box will pop up for File Download. Click on Save and name your file (Save it to where you can find it).
Step 2… Open up your photoshop and find the Template and then decide what art you would like to put on a t-shirt. (I am only teaching you how to put a full page of art on a template as it is easier for us both).
Step 3.. You should have both the Template Opened up and the Art you want to Trasfer. Now resizing your art to fit on the Template. While on the Template… Go to Image (top right) then Resize and then Image Size. Once you are there you should see these image sizes… Top of page should say 22m… Next Row… width 2400 pixels.. Height… 3200 pixels… width 33.333 inches… Height 44.444 inches… and Resoulution will be 72 pixels/inches. Now you have the sizes and now you can make sure your art fits this size. It can be smaller but no larger than these sizes.
Step 4… Transfering art to the Template. After you have resized the art to fit on the template you now need to do a Select and then All (top left) after you do this you Click on Edit (top left) and then Copy. Now go to the template and do a Edit and then Paste. The art should be on the template now all you have to do is Go to Layers (top right) Now Click on the Template Layer on the small drop down then Click on Layer (top left) and then Click on Delete Layer. This gets rid of the RB grid.
Step 5… Now all you have to do is a Save As and rename the file. Also when you go to close the template and art do not save changes when closing template so you can reuse it again and again. You can also resize your art before closing or save it as the new size.
I hope this helps! If anyone would like to talk live for more assistance my IM address is hoffardart@hotmail.com
Here are the direction with less words…
Transfer Template
Open Template
Open Art
Resize Art
Select – All
Edit – Copy (art)
Edit – paste (onto template)
Layers (click on Template Layer) – Layer – Delete Layer
Now File – Save As and Re Name Template
Do not save changes when you close the Template so that you can reuse.
On the art you can resize it or Save Changes when closing.

Kimberly so many will be grateful for the explanation you wonder why it is not available as “folks this is how you do the template.” Ha ha simple stupid is the best way to explain something so simple (Hey you are not simple stupid OK!!! Namaste). Now maybe explaining the zazzle-Looney method of simple stupid…ha ha. OMG geeking Geeks speak Geek write Geek think Geek…it is all Geek to most….Kudos to you.

Hee hee, i just can’t seem to get their template to behave, when i download it, it comes up in a macintosh program called preview, & i can’t get rid of the background. & my image won’t stay, it just bounces back out. And i have tried & tried to resize an image to the 2400×3200, & not one of mt art programs will do it. Not even Gimp. Sure wish mac could do IM, lol. Hopefully later 2nite i will re read your instructions & see where my errors are
