Design for Success - part 3

I make all of my designs 12x12 inches at 300 dpi, and upload png files.

Why? Because you never know if CafePress is going to increase print areas. Also, you want the quality of the prints to be top-notch, and 300 dpi will get you that. Also, you can make a design smaller, but not larger. (Well, not successfully at least).

I use Photoshop, but you can also use other programs like Gimp (free), which I heard is great.
