How to Ensure the Best Results When Customising Your Clothing and Apparel

At Ninja Market, we offer an easy and intuitive way for you to customise your clothing and apparel with photos, text, logos, and more using our onsite application. To help you achieve the best results and avoid any issues with poor quality items, we've put together some tips and guidelines. By following these steps, you can ensure that your custom creations turn out exactly as you envision them.

Tips for Uploading Photos

  1. Use High-Resolution Images:

    • Recommended Resolution: For the best print quality, use images with a resolution of at least 300 DPI (dots per inch). Lower resolution images may appear pixelated or blurry when printed.
    • File Formats: Use standard formats like JPEG, PNG, or TIFF. PNG files are ideal for images with transparent backgrounds.
  2. Check Image Dimensions:

    • Ensure your image is large enough to cover the intended print area without losing quality. For example, a 10x10 inch print area requires an image that is at least 3000x3000 pixels.
  3. Avoid Compression Artifacts:

    • When saving your image, avoid overly compressing the file. Excessive compression can cause visible artifacts and reduce print quality.
  4. Preview Your Image:

    • Use the preview function in our application to see how your image will look on the item. Make any necessary adjustments to positioning and size.

Tips for Adding Text

  1. Choose the Right Font:

    • Select a font that is clear and legible. Avoid overly intricate or thin fonts that may not print well.
    • Consider the style of the apparel and the message you want to convey. Bold, sans-serif fonts work well for a modern look, while script fonts can add elegance.
  2. Font Size and Placement:

    • Ensure that the text size is large enough to be readable from a reasonable distance. Avoid placing text too close to the edges of the print area.
    • Use the alignment tools in our application to center your text or align it as desired.
  3. Color Contrast:

    • Choose text colors that contrast well with the background of the apparel. High contrast ensures that your text stands out and is easy to read.

Tips for Adding Logos and Graphics

  1. Use Vector Files for Logos:

    • If possible, upload vector files (such as SVG, AI, or EPS) for logos. Vector graphics can be scaled without losing quality, ensuring a crisp and clean print.
  2. Ensure Transparency Where Needed:

    • If your logo includes transparent areas, make sure your file format supports transparency (e.g., PNG). This prevents unwanted backgrounds from appearing in the final print.
  3. Placement and Size:

    • Carefully consider the placement of your logo. Use our application’s preview tool to adjust the size and position to your liking. Avoid placing logos too close to seams or edges.

General Best Practices

  1. Check the Print Area:

    • Each item has a defined print area. Make sure your design fits within this area to avoid cropping or misalignment.
  2. Avoid Overlapping Elements:

    • Ensure that text, images, and logos do not overlap unless it is part of the intended design. Overlapping elements can make the final product look cluttered and unprofessional.
  3. Consistent Branding:

    • If you are creating branded apparel, maintain consistency in colors, fonts, and logo placement to ensure a professional and cohesive look.
  4. Review Your Design:

    • Before finalizing your order, double-check your design. Look for spelling errors, alignment issues, and any other potential problems.
