How To Change Size Of Images In Designer

Struggling To Get Your Image Size Right?

You’ve picked the perfect photo. It might be for a birthday, a work event or even a last minute rush order. But when you upload it into the designer, something feels off. The image looks too small, too large or just not positioned correctly.

That frustration is common. Many people don’t realise that sizing your image properly is one of the most important steps in getting a great looking printed shirt.

What Happens If You Get It Wrong

If your image is not sized correctly, a few things can happen

  • Your design may print too small and lose its impact. This can make your shirt look unfinished or unprofessional, especially for events or branding.
  • The image can stretch or pixelate. This affects the quality and can turn a great design into something disappointing when printed.
  • You may place the design outside the printable area. This can result in parts of your image being cut off or not printed at all.

No one wants to wait for delivery only to realise the shirt is not what they expected.

You Don’t Have To Figure This Out Alone

At Custom T Shirt Printing Online, we understand how confusing online design tools can feel at first. That’s why we guide you step by step so you can confidently place your order and get it right the first time.

We’ve helped customers across Brisbane and beyond turn their ideas into shirts they are proud to wear. Whether it’s your first time or you’re placing a rush order, we make the process simple.

Here’s The Simple Plan To Resize Your Image

Step 1 - Log Into The Website

Start by logging into the website and selecting the shirt you want to print on. Once selected, you will enter the online designer where all the magic happens.

Step 2 - Click Add Design

At the top of the editor, you will see a tab called Add Design. Click this to begin uploading your artwork. This is where you can bring your image into the design area.

Step 3 - Upload Your Image

You can upload directly from your phone or choose from other options such as an image library or social media platforms. This flexibility makes it easy to access your favourite designs quickly.

Step 4 - Resize Your Image

Once your image appears on the shirt, resizing is simple

  • Click on the image to activate it. You will see small round circles on the corners.
  • Drag these circles to make the image bigger or smaller. This allows you to control the exact size visually.
  • Move the image into position by dragging it across the shirt. This helps you centre it or place it exactly where you want.
  • Stay within the dotted orange ant tracks. This ensures your design prints correctly and avoids any cut off edges.
