I am new to the forum, as well as SS so if my questions are stupid, I apologize.

Is it better to upload a png or an eps? seems like you can upload bigger sizes if its a png, or am I wrong?

Thanks!!

An EPS is a vector file, a PNG is a raster file. for DTG the PNG is better.

The advantage with an EPS is that it has infinite resizability and can be printed with Flex/Flock. However, a PNG can contain more detail and color. It's all a trade off of what works best for you.

I guess its just a matter preference.

Ill add to the above mentioned that Flex/Flock print should last longer than a regualar DTG.

I personally prefer the Digital print, its not as thick as the Flex, feels more comfortable. Also if you are going for vintage look, DTG is the way to go.
To me, it doesn't matter if it doesn't last as long, the tshirt itslef will look too washed after a while, so there's no point in having a print that will outlast the shirt.

Its horses for courses - depends on the effect you want to produce, the colours you want to use and the type of t-shirts you use.

As I understand it, large flex designs can feel uncomfortable when worn as it alters the breathability of the shirt.

There are limits on how small a flex design can go. Each element must be at least 1.5 mm thick and there must be at least 1.0 mm space between elements.

Have a look here. This page is from the European site and has not yet been updated with info on Digital Direct.

Not all products can be printed on using Digital Direct. In fact there is a quite limited list for the European site as they are still getting up to speed with this service.

Some of the partners over at the European Spreadshirt have been very enthusiastic about the results of Digital Direct.
