How to upload to Redbubble
My first tutorial video, explaining some of the basics in uploading an image to Redbubble.com.
I made this image smaller for the purposes of this video, you can find it and any of my full sized work at www.redbubble.com/people/orthodoxyn

Hi are you still using Redbubble? I have questions about my image size when setting up my shop. Redbubble is not giving a warning like you show in your video if your image size won’t work. My images were created in procreate on a 3000x3000px canvas at 300dpi, I was hoping that for the larger items like the shower curtains I could tile my image and it would be sufficient, but I don’t know what scaling % I would need to use so my image is printed clean.
Hi I was hoping to find out more info on how to make images bigger in size to a vector graphic. This cant be done in photoshop but where would you do it? It wont make a difference reshooting as I have a high quality DSLR camera but images still wont get high res for a doona cover size.
How do you take pictures of artwork in a drawn in a book? I've been trying to take photos with my iphone 7 but the max resolution I can get is 1536 x 2048 and the basic t-shirt requires 2400 x 3200 and I hear increasing the resolution is bad
hy pleas im a beggener in redbubble what number of work to put in redbbuble in day
Great video! How do I fix the size of the image. When I upload it it is tiny and I don't know how to fix that.
So, I followed their suggested dimensions, but I'm getting a notice that says, "Please choose a file that has dimensions smaller than 182.25 megapixels." What do I do here?
Thanks so much for making this video! 😊👍🏽
I'm using mobile and it keeps saying failed to open picture
I appreciate your wise counsel. Most important, your artwork's fantastic!
I’m new to Redbubble and I uploaded my work but for some reason it’s saying that I don’t have any work..
This is great but it's 3 years old now and RB has changed the UI somewhat
runningheadcom yeah, might make a new one sometime once they've made a significant update.
How do I upload photos into Redbubble without them being so dinky?
Josie Ray not sure what you mean by "dinky" sorry! If it's an issue with your photo being too small then you'll need a larger resolution image.
orthodoxyn how do I get a larger resolution image?
How do you find images on google or Pinterest that have a lot of resolution and don’t have to reload them to Redbubble?
Josie Ray if you're taking a photo you'd likely need a higher quality camera. If you're drawing an image you'll need to scan it at a higher resolution.
orthodoxyn I search for commercial free images on google or Pinterest that’s how I do my art any suggestions?
Dude this is great - very useful - thanks
Tom Martin thanks! It’s a little out of date now but glad folks are still getting use out of it!
Very good. Thank you (-:
Thank you for taking the time to do this very helpful
Hi, I'm just trying to upload my first artwork but it took me forever and hasn't been done yet...because I have lots of questions. At 2:25, I can't see "color availability" for me to select a background color. Did I miss anything here? And when I click on the availability tab, there isn't any warning, nor grey-out, nor check marks. So I just check them off. Please let me know if I am doing it right. Thank you!
Ava Rich this video is a bit out of date now! Unfortunately that feature has been removed and you can only pick a "default colour" now 😞
Hi, thank you for getting back to me. I have another question: They accept PNG file for clothing but it's in RGB mode. I have a design that has half white and half blue background. Do I still save as PNG for T-shirt? But for dress, I remove the blue from my artwork and use the blue ground color from the system. Will the blue come out different?
Ava Rich I can’t tell you how it will print sorry! It might be worth contacting Redbubble support?
No problem, thank you for your time. Just a note about the support: You can only email them for questions and don't know when they will get back to you. The live chat doesn't help you with this.
Ava Rich yeah their artist support don't work on chat. They'll get back to you eventually you'll just need some patience over the weekend.
Just signed up and yet to post anything. Your video is a great help, thanks! Now what happens money-wise after I post an image and someone wants to buy a product? How is the financial side of things dealt with?>
Graham Hart if someone buys your work you have a markup you get paid, which is a percentage based on Redbubble’s price. You can set this to any percentage you want and you get paid for any sales you make around the middle of each month.
Can you upload vertor art?
You'd need to save it as a PNG or JPEG to upload it.
orthodoxyn will this affect the quality of the product
really helpful thanks - on another topic re colour, do i need to create in CMYK then convert to RGB before uploading? thanks!
I think if you want a more accurate estimate of how your work will print it's a good idea. But some images I just pop up in RGB and hope for the best.
You said you were going to create a separate video for other tutorials... Have you done it? :)
Solid Hoodie no sorry, life kinda got away on me and I never got around to it.
Thank you for this. was very helpful as im about to use the site.
I'm really interested in opening a Redbubble shop, but I photograph my work rather than scan it. Would this affect the quality of a print?
I guess it all depends how good the photo is? I know for some larger paintings some artists opt for photos in a controlled setting (no glare etc) but yeah, with a nice camera you can get a large enough file :)
I see what you're saying :) I#m a bit worried that if someone ordered a print from me, it would just look like a large photo instead of a poster ^^;
Hi. If I add an image to a clock, do I have to publish it first before I can use another image for a clock. Or is there a way to keep upload different images for the same final product and then go public at the same time?
Don't Turn Around you have to publish each image one at a time. Redbubble doesn't have a way to uploaded by product.
Thanks! I'm sorry I have to ask you this, but the site is unclear. Once I put up the images, does it create a "store" of all the products I have that I can sum up in a link to send people?
Once you create an account, you have a store page (it just has nothing on it yet). As you add works they will populate your page.
Thanks orthodoxyn. Do you have a connection to the site or are you just a big fan of theirs? I set it up, but then instead of saying Don't Turn Around it says something like Don39ud93ut Turn Around. Seems like there is an apostrophe problem. A real shame as I love their products, but I can't let my 100k+ subscribers know about it. I tried their customer service days ago and just always get an email back saying 'your request needs more time'. If you're connected to it, do you have any answer. If you're not, could you recommend another site?
i dont understand. As much as i enjoyed your vid i still dont understand since every time i upload a pic onto a tee it is always to small! and the percentage is at 100% it look bad i really dont know what to do. i want to make money off here but i dont know if i can with my ugly creations...
It sounds like your image size is too small. You can check out the dimension requirements over here help.redbubble.com/hc/en-us/articles/202270679-Dimensions-Format-and-Colour
Hi orthodoxyn. Do you know how can I duplicate the works only change the image with the same size but retain the position and size in all products. Now I have to adjust the size and position for each image
Ramiro Diz the only trick I could think of is make a transparent rectangle in photoshop that has the exact pixel dimensions for a T-shirt (2875x3900 pixels) and place your image there. That way it would technically fill the whole shirt area the same each time. Sorry there is no really simple way to do it!
Hi, when I upload my PNG file it goes on a white T fine but when I try a colored T there is a big white block around my graphic. On Zazzle I don't have this problem. Can you help?
Terry Zellers you need to remove the background of your image and then save it as a PNG. There are RUclips tutorials on how to do this all over the place 👍
Thanks for posting,,
John Chaney happy to help!
when I search for my shirt using the tags including the title of the shirt it doesn't come up in search?
Pyramid Tank it can take 15 mins for a design to show up in search results. Also make sure you're sorting the results by "recent" as there's a lot of content on Redbubble.
orthodoxyn thanks
I don't know why I always failed when uploading my work. "Ack - it seems there's been an unexplained problem. You should probably give it another go." I tried to give it another go, but it still not working, until I just upload for one product but its still not working
jon isa sorry not sure, you may need to contact RB support?
Hi, thanks for the video, really helpful and well explained. I have a question about background. I saved an image with no background colour on the Photoshop image into a Bitmap image and when it is uploaded into Redbubble it has a white background meaning it doesn't work on different coloured items. How can I avoid the white background? Thanks,
Karen Oberheim you need to save the file as a PNG to preserve the transparent background.
If I make a shirt will I get a free one or lower price? and can I change prices?
Waffle The Denosour you won't get a free shirt (RB would lose so much money!) but if you buy your own work you only pay the base price. You can set your own margin/price.
orthodoxyn Thank you so much!
orthodoxyn also where can I set the price?
Hi, I already have a Redbubble portfolio, but it the first time I'm running into this message : "Please choose a file that has dimensions smaller than 182.25 megapixels." I looked through the help section on the site itself ,what am I overlooking?
zoomboom That's a new one for me! I'm guessing your file is just a bit too large for their uploader? Try making it smaller and seeing if it works? Otherwise it might be best to contact RB support?
orthodoxyn thanks a lot, will try to figure it out, as I already uploaded king size duvets graphics before with no problem
This is a dumb question but do I actually send out prints and stuff when someone orders it or does redbubble make a print from the image you upload and send it out automatically
Dante Moon Redbubble does everything, you just upload the artwork 👍
orthodoxyn sweet! I was also wondering when you make a sale do you get the base price when you get paid or do you get the difference of the base price and the actual price that it's being sold at.
Dante Moon Redbubble keeps the base price, it covers the manufacturing costs. The artist keeps the mark up percentage. I highly recommend checking out the RB help centre as it explains all this in detail 🙂
Hi!I am thinking about starting a shop on redbubble and i am not really sure how it goes...When someone order something with my print, do I recive some kind of notification so I can know am i recieving any money? And , this may sound stupid idk but can you like order something with your print on it and have some kind of discount,or its the same price for you too?Loved the video btw :)
Lea Vuckovic yes you get an email with the details of the sale and if you buy your own work you only pay the base price. I recommend checking out Redbubble's help centre which had a lot of FAQ's about getting started on there.
orthodoxyn Tnx for your answer :) and yes i will tnx for advise
U so pretty lea :)
I'm uploading on Redbubble for the first time and I've read through all of the pixel dimension requirements for each product, but the way that you just demonstrated uploading suggests that Redbubble will instantly resize the pixel dimensions for you anyway. Is there something I'm missing here? Will just uploading my image at the size its always been be enough? Or am I risking my products becoming Minecraft when they print? Also the information provided in the dimensions and format page are for an older version for Photoshop, is there a tutorial that we could work up for Photoshop CC 15? And is it okay to upload photos taken on our mobile (or cell if you're in America) that are otherwise okay for printing on photo paper and canvas? I apologise if I come across as a complete novice or ignorant and if I'm being annoying with my questions, but I'm getting all of this different information for uploading onto Redbubble and feel a little overwhelmed with what to do :( That being said, your tutorial is a huge help and I feel a whole lot closer to getting started after watching it then what I did just reading the information provided on the Redbebble help page :) <3
lauren bull lauren bull larger images will be scaled down to fit smaller products. Such as a poster size image to a gallery board. So it's best to work large. Some folks want particular dimensions for things like mugs though. I recommend contacting RB's Artist Support team as they're really better equipped to answer your questions in depth. Also the best way to learn is to just start uploading! There really is nothing you can do that can't be deleted or fixed later 🙂
"Media codes must contain no more than two media" any help with that? Thanks in advance lad!
Jay Raff these are the check boxes "photography, digital art" etc. You can only tick 2 maximum.
Hi! ive been following the dimensions given for the items when editing my pictures but its still too small, im not sure why?
Priscilla Matos I'd need to see the file. I recommend contacting their Artist Support team (from the "help" button at the bottom of the page) and sending in your image. They can manually check what's causing the issue.
so what happened to other videos you promised :) I would like to see one on adjusting design positioning on mugs and leggings if possible...cheers
Diana Kipka thanks for showing interest! Life sort of got away on me and I haven't been able to fund the time. I'll try make one in the coming weeks!
will look forward to it...thanks
I'm uploading a design with a decent size but on the product it is really small even though it's scale is 100.
The size required for products like T-shirts is very large (much bigger than your screen size) or you'd get a low resolution print. You can find the required pixel dimensions for all products over here: help.redbubble.com/hc/en-us/articles/202270679
orthodoxyn I see. That's too bad because I don't want my print to be pixelated.
I've definitely been there dude - I make sure I scan my hand-drawn stuff at a high resolution now and if it's a digital image I start it at a very high pixel size so it can scale down easily.
orthodoxyn Good to know. Thanks for your help!
Do I need to gain access to a computer, or can I upload images from my Kindle fire tablet?
Kyla Jane the uploader can be a bit tricky on mobile devices but it's technically possible. I'd recommend a desktop computer or laptop if you have access to one.
My redbubble doesnt work everytime i try to upload an artwork it says can not use i dont know what I am doing wrong.
Zaiya Fine Art it might be the file type? I'm not sure. The best thing to do is take a screenshot and then contact RB support (from the "help" button at the bottom of the page) with both your screenshot and the file you are attempting to upload.
Thx man, that was helpful to see (vs just reading the instructions).
Beast Syndicate happy to help all those visual learners out there! Will need to update this soon to match recent uploader changes.
Is there a way to add text to any of these items?
Rudy Kessler no, you'd need to include the text in image.
I heard from websites that Redbubble is a scam. Should I be concerned about these allegations?
david Haha nope. I'm pretty sure those claims are made by people who breached copyright and then had their work taken down. I get paid every month no problems.
Hi I have a question about the size of adding new work, every time I upload something its way too small and I can't make it bigger, what sizes do you use? Thank you
XCaitlinamber the artwork you are using is too small. If you stretch it any larger it will distort the quality of your image. You'll need to re-create it at a larger size. If you click "help" at the bottom of the page and then "selling" you'll find the RB help centre which had a full list of the sizes for each product.
Thanks a lot!
where do i find my private works?
Lola your private works can be found on your "manage portfolio" page from the drop down menu in the top right corner.
thankyou... was so perplexed at why no kids clothes were being shown... now i understand where the 'availability' button is i can fix the problem... :)
Happy to help!
Thank you for that tutorial, it's very helpful! :)
You are most welcome!
Do you get paid for uploading these or do they get paid instead...?
If I make a sale both Redbubble and I make money. If no sale, no one makes anything but it's free to upload so have a try!
Okie dokie! I have started on it a couple weeks ago and its awesome!
Hi mate all my art is hand drawn and im not exactly technology savvy how would i get my drawing from paper to a t shirt without it showing the paper it was drawn on
You'd need to find someone to help you scan your work and then remove the background in a program like photoshop. There's a lot of tutorials on RUclips for this sort of thing but reaching out to a tech-savvy friend is often a great idea.
