Ok so something that resonated in one of Tom’s videos is that if you produce ‘crap’ posters it’ll be a problem. I’ve made 15 posters so far and would love some feedback. My posters are made in Gemini with me dropping into Canva, removing watermarks/brands and adding the year as a title and a random date. Anachronism is my theme and they’re supposed to be amusing. All feedback good and bad welcome! https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/SlimJimPrint

First three listings posted last night, at last! Had a message a mere 6 hours later asking about sizes. Likely a spam message or genuine interest from a potential customer so soon?!

Hi all, I’m still yet to post my first listing but in the meantime, I just wanted to get some advice on upscaling. So far, I’ve dropped my image into Photopea, image size 841 mm high, 300 DPI, ticked resample. Looks ok but a little blurry on screen at 100%. I also tried upscayl as an alternative but I feel when viewed at 100% on the screen. The image looks very rubberised and plasticy, difficult to describe! Does the first resample option work well by itself when printed or do I need to fiddle with some settings in upscayl or elsewhere? I guess the best thing to do would be to actually print a test one before selling on Etsy!

Just starting out and no idea yet if my ‘hilarious’ posters will sell or not. I’m wondering is there any point creating any print-ready files at all until I get my first sale?

Hey guys, Happy Thursday! We are thrilled to announce that we have FINALLY launched framed prints on PrintShrimp!! Those of you that have been around for a while honestly have probably given up hope, but I promise we have been working so hard behind the scenes to get these live 😆 Frames are available in 3 finishes (Oak, Black and White). All frames arrive ready to hang. Please view the attached pdfs for images and more details. So, what do you need to do? Obviously, frames don't automatically appear for sale on your Etsy shop. Before you start panicking about how much it will be to add frames to all of your listings - don't worry! We have built a couple of tools that allow you to add frames to all of your listings (and yes you can use them for free) These will create your listings so they are set up with variation options for Print Only Black Frame Oak Frame White Frame Attached is a screenshot of what your listings will look like after adding them with the tool Head to your portal and click on the new tab 'Frame Launch' Please please please watch the YouTube videos (and pay attention lol) that go through how to add frames to your shops. It's a simple process but there are a few things you need to do to add frames, and the videos explain it all to you very clearly. The two main things you need to do are: Edit your listings to have one SKU: For us to edit your listings and add frames, we need all of your listings to have one SKU per product. We have built a tool that will identify where your listings differ and clean them up for you. You will need to do this as step 1 if your products have multiple SKUs (i.e. an SKU for each size variation) Actually edit your listings to add framed variations: This is where the magic happens. You need to do a few things such as disable global and domestic pricing, so please watch the videos that details all of this. We have our recommended pricing built into the software that will apply to all of your listings, for frames and print only. This includes some modifications to print only recommended pricing we had before (which means higher profits for you guys compared to before). I have attached a guide with the new recommended pricing below! Here you can get a snapshot of the expected profits from selling frames! This is based on UK prices and accounts for UK VAT when charged and Etsy fees.
