what's up good how you create designs
for any print-on-demand product
including merch by Amazon using this app
called word swag so I think it's free
for iOS and maybe cost $4 for Android if
I remember correctly anyways once you
launch the app tap this icon in the
bottom right it's like the two images
that's how you create images then tap
transparent background because for our
purposes we need that transparency now
you'll get this layout by default you
want to double tap into the text and
type your text if you don't know any
actually you can just tap down the side
and they'll generate it for you so there
you go say no to drugs say yes to tacos
I like that let's go with that I'm gonna
hit save and close and we will work with
this also I'm gonna zoom out I don't
know why it zooms in so much now it
didn't use to do that alright so you're
like what is what is all the hype about
what's going on here well what's cool
about this app is that for one going
across the bottom here you see 1 2 3 4 5
and then dice you can rearrange the
styles or the layout of this style I
don't know exactly how to describe it
I'm tapping the dice repeatedly right
now and just watching it cycle through
different approaches to using this style
so this style is called square number 9
but if I tap to the right of it simply
good this is a different style and this
one needs to be zoomed in a bit so you
can see now how I'm cycling through and
it's swapping kind of the red during
just a little bit and you can keep doing
this until you see layouts that you like
it's this one's called fresh say no to
drugs say yes to tacos you can keep
cycling through it's kind of weird
though how the app did not used to be
this way where I keep having a
pinch-to-zoom and then not so that's a
little odd but if you don't feel like
doing design you can just pop into this
app and it can generate this stuff for
you long shot that one looks kind of
cool
flower rendering called full bloom
Keywest
this one looks alright special dark puts
it in like a circle not too many
different styles to cycle through their
new caption wet paint I like this one
I've sold some shirts using this this
layout this one right here with like the
paint spots too not bad-looking so I'm
gonna save this one and we'll pull it
into Photoshop and resize it I'm gonna
hit share and I'm gonna push this to my
Google Drive I'll retrieve it from there
later let's try to find at least one
more maybe around the world
this one looks right punch out shout out
say no to drugs say yes to tacos this
one's pretty cool look at that so this
is more like the ones that sell well on
t-shirts some of these maybe not all of
them like this one probably would sell
so I'll upload that to Drive
and let's see any other good ones
there's so much that you can mess around
with stack attack this one I've sold for
sure a bunch of a bunch of designs but
there's nothing really to this it's just
like one in a photo shop and typing some
text and like changing the angle that it
renders that the jak1 this is a good one
too again there's no skill involved here
they generated the same for us and
they're generating the layout for us so
see that could go on a shirt too sketchy
times
any others this one's good I like the
one with the the line in between there
we go like this alright so what is that
three or four different ones that we can
play around with so I hit save to drive
this is just how I do it I save to my
Google Drive and then I just retrieve it
from there so I'm gonna eggs out of the
phone now and I'm gonna pull these up on
my desktop alright guys and then from
here all you have to do is download your
files to your desktop however you go
about doing that and I wanted to show
you in the Windows image viewer but of
course they still haven't figured out
how to show white text over a black
background so this is an example that I
prepped in a separate video
it's just says work hard play hard and
you can see like the dimensions that
word swag renders it at is 2048 by 2048
so I just pulled into Photoshop and fit
it how I like it so if we're using this
for Amazon merge specifically we don't
get to like play around with how it's
gonna be laid out on the product outside
of right now where you actually like
save your PNG so I'd recommend doing
this for Amazon merch especially if
you're uploading to like printful you'd
be able to do it in the in the like
product creation wizard so for now we'll
just leave it like this so I'm gonna
turn off the background and save this as
merch optimized on the desktop so just
call it work hard play hard yeah that
works alright and then I'll kill that
layer bring the black background in
again say no to drugs say yes to tacos
position this about like they're
seamless looks good the app just cranked
that out for us in two seconds turn off
the background and yeah say no to drugs
say yes to so guys I made a video about
this the other day but like when you do
your file naming conventions you want to
do something similar to what you see me
doing with relevant keywords and dashes
instead of spaces always good practice
say no to drugs yes ty so you could blow
it up a little bit to make it bigger
centered there we go brilliant and you
know what I might actually do guys is
that black text so that we just let it
see through to the color of the shirt in
the back I'm going to merge these layers
and then what you can do is you can just
like select color range and click the
black and then just cut it like that so
now if we were to like make a I don't
know like a pink or purple background
it'll show through like that instead of
it being like hard-coded is black so a
little trick there I think it looks
better this way and more consistent with
the design so yeah
save this say no to drugs say yes to
tacos to number two and then just to
show you guys the other ones we're not
to save them we're not to go three
Dexter step of saving them but I'll just
pop them up here and show you so I'd
probably make this a little bit bigger
I think bigger designs so well that
looks about right pretty good and the
last one is right here wait did I skip
one this this is that's all for alright
yeah so we just cranked out I didn't
save it but yeah for easy merch by
Amazon designs as you can see here work
hard play hard came out of the word swag
app I did that on a separate video say
no to drugs using the paint splatter I
think that looks really good as well and
I forget what this one was called but I
mean you guys could hopefully you're an
agreement that like if people were
looking for a say no to drugs say yes to
tacos shirt like this looks like a
professionally designed nice symmetric
layout and it's not like we couldn't
accomplish this ourselves using graphic
design software but I mean how easy was
it to use that app and that I mean I
think it's free iOS and $4 in Android we
see word swag app
Android well I have it installed so bad
example but iOS see where it's free yeah
so free iOS and four bucks Android but
well worth the four dollars I've been
using it for years
and I don't use it like as a primary
go-to but I use it on the side for
whenever I don't feel like if it's like
a text-based design and I think you know
I'm pretty familiar with the styles in
the word swag app and if I think I can
crank one out there quickly and easily
then I just use that you know it's
simple enough so anyways guys hope you
