Choosing the Best Colors for Your Design

One of the most important elements of creating the perfect T-shirt for your event is using the proper colors.  You may have an idea in your head of how you would like your design to look, but when you begin designing your T-shirtonline the colors may not appear as vibrant as you would like.

 

This is due to the fact that lighting in the design area tends to be as bright as possible, while the screen on your computer has filters that change the vibrancy of colors and makes them appear more vibrant.  While these filters on your computer screen serve a purpose in providing you with the best resolution possible, they can alter the colors that you see on the final product.

Here are some tips that will help you choose colors that will work well together and provide you with a T-shirt that you will be proud to present and wear at your next event.  If you decide to have your design screen printed on a light colored T-shirt, you should be careful when choosing light colored text or designs.  If your design features too many light colors or if the text is too light, it may end up blending in with the color of the T-shirt that you chose.  If your design must include light colors, you may want to consider having them outlined using a darker color.  This will ensure that the text or design will be legible.

When choosing a darker colored T-shirt, it is recommended that your design or text not be too dark.  If you choose a dark colored text it may get lost and not stand out and get noticed as you had hoped.  When printing on dark colors it is recommended that you choose a color that will contrast with the body of the shirt and can easily be read from a distance.  This doesn’t mean that you can only choose white, there are many other color options available that will provide you with a design that you will be extremely happy with.

There are many things that you need to take into consideration when creating a design to be printed on a T-shirt.  These are only a few of the most important things you need to think about before submitting an order.  If you keep these suggestions in mind when creating a shirt online, you should be rewarded with a custom printed T-shirt that will look great.
