    Anne is a really good digital artist to follow. She came through for me on some questions I had on one of her offers and followed through perfectly. There's a lot to be said for that in comparison to many of the others out there that you may never hear back from.

    You explained this clear and concise. I really appreciated it. It seemed so simple once you explain it. I thought it was a lot more to uploading the file in order for the customer to get it automatically . I guess that happens through a feature from Etsy once it is paid. I went through a lot of tutorials on this subject to finally get to you . Thank you so much!

    Thank you for helping me open my 1st 1 sticker sheet up. More will come, but I have drained after. I guess nervous and overthinking had a lot to do with it. The next one will not be as bad. I guess that little push off the fence. I set the goal for today to do it. Plus I had to be held accountable with my grand-daughter to do it. She has always been a great partner in business since she was 4(now 16 and tougher). I want to do printing stickers but right now I just want to get my feet wet first. Looking forward to binge-watching your others. Thanks again.

    Thank you for such thorough walk through! That helps for someone like me, who is just getting started with digital! Do you have any videos explaining how to make the various formats, of the same image, available to the customer? [SVG, EPS, DXF, PNG, Vector, cut files, JPEG]. Is this something I have to do before I list on Etsy? Would each file format be a separate listing?

    • @GDHT
      @GDHT  4 года назад +6

      I always include all the formats with my listing. So I give the customer 5 files - EPS, SVG, DXF, PNG, PDF - in one listing. I don't have a video about it, but you can save all these either via the Save As feature or the Export > Export As feature.

    • @GDHT
      @GDHT  4 года назад

      I actually don't do variations, but there's no need to worry about it - just double check your listing variations once you publish. You can always edit after publishing and fix anything that isn't correct. It's just a reminder message that the preview may not be accurate, but your listing should be correct.

    Hi, I have a question about the licensing part. Like personal or commercial use... after I list a digital download on Etsy, how can I be sure that they will only use my product for personal use only? Do I need to purchase a certain licensing for this?

    • @GDHT

      You can do a reverse image search for your designs from time to time and then issue DMCA takedowns for the ones violating your terms...and you do have the right to sue if you think it's worth it!

    If I want to sell a pdf file how can I make those nice pdf display I see people use. The pages seem to overlap or give a preview of what the printed version might look like in a book. I've been googling and I just can't figure it out! If anyone knows please comment!

    • @GDHT

      Those are called mockups. So if you searched for 'page mockup', 'resume mockup' or 'pdf mockup' you could probably find some good ones! Here are some resume ones: www.freepik.com/free-photos-vectors/resume-mockup

    So what happens when the customers buys one of these downloads? Does the file automatically get sent to them by the system or do you physically send it? Also, for photography, how do you provide different size ratios?

    • @GDHT
      @GDHT  2 года назад

      Yes, it’s automatically sent once the payment goes through. For different sizes of photos, I would just specify in the listing what sizes you’ll provide and then upload each size. You get a maximum of five files, but you can have as many files as you want in a zip file (within a maximum file size)

    I have an Etsy shop. I was selling there lots of hand- crochet and knitted baby items before. Currently it's idle. Should I just update it, do some "re-construction" and use it again for digital art? TY

    1.A person can create in one store under one listing with lots of diffrent background font style and size colors etc with paying 0.20 cents for that listing ?
    Can i change the wording for some of the cards or it must remain the same eg.Happy Wedding in one.Then blessed wedding in the other.?

    What quality or file size should your images be when you upload them to Etsy?

    • @GDHT
      @GDHT  4 года назад +2

      It depends on what type of file you're wanting to sell. If you're uploading digital prints, you can have them at actual size (5x7, etc) and then 300 ppi. If you're selling vectors, it doesn't really matter because you can scale those to any size without losing quality.

      @GDHT  4 года назад

      You don't have to have a digital downloads shop - you can sell physical items on Etsy too, but they have to be handmade by you or vintage items (Etsy rules). People are interested in selling digital files because they can create a file once, then it sells multiple times with no extra work (no having to actually create a new product every time, no shipping, etc).

    Thanks for the info! I noticed that you put in your terms that you don’t want people taking your design for a print-on-demand site... I was thinking about selling some of my better ideas this way, but do you think this could be a big problem if I ended up with a popular design, and is there any way to stop people from stealing a design?

    • @GDHT

      Stealing does happen, but you can file copyright complaints with the site. I've had to do this a few times, and the sites are good about taking down the design.

      Unfortunately, it's a risk you take. You can watermark your thumbnails, but someone who knows what they're doing can usually get around that. I've found that most people in the world are honest, though, and just pay for it.

    Hi Anne,
    A very thorough explanation! The $0.20 cents you mention is only a one time listing cost for all four months? So basically, you can sell as many times an item just for a $0.20 cents during those four months and continue to pay $0.20 each four months in the future? If it sells before the four months, since this is downloadable product you have to pay $0.20 again?

    • @GDHT

    Hi Ann, Thank you for your clear instructions. I'm getting ready to start my digital shop with Etsy. I have an instruction sheet with pictures and illustrations on how to make a fleece blanket, It is 4 pages. My question is once I download the 4 pages I'm hoping that they will just see the cover photo,( the thumbnail) then when they pay they will get and be able to see the other 3 pages. Is this correct?

      Yes - that's correct! The photos area is completely separate from the downloads section, so that would work.
