Hi dugg, welcome to the T-Shirt Forums!

I hope you can share some of your expertise in our Graphics and Design section of the forum :)
Welcome Dugg, you have some great work on the site.
Hey, Dugg, great to have more brains and experience joining in to keep the quality level of this forum as extraordinarily high as it has been.:)
Hi Dugg,
Love your Skull Designs quality!
Yup, it seems that people are still into skulls. I think they will allways sell.

Since you said that you have answers for Illustrator, Photoshop... I have something to ask you.

I've used only Photoshop to create my designs and now I'm trying Illustrator too. My question is: if someone asked me to send a design in EPS format can I save it from Photoshop?
As far as I know EPS is a vector format, right? So if I save my file from Photoshop will I damage it as I did not create my design in vector?

Hope you understand what I mean.
Hi Dugg,

welcome to the forum. Your designs are great and so is the site :) Where did you get those foreign passport stamps that are on your second page (RECENT WORK 2)? Is it from clipart or did you create them yourself?

Thank you,
A
Thanks for all the kudos everyone! yeah, I still get requests for more skulls.
I'm actually getting ready for another project with more gothic looking designs.

Yes, you can save a "photoshop eps" file. But that won't make it a vector file.
If the client wants an eps illustrator file then maybe they want the artwork created in vector format. They have to be a bit especific.
And no you wont damage the file if you save as eps.
Hope this helps.

Hi annushka, the page is a template from apple. But if your looking for stamp designs I think I can provide.:)
If you need let me know. I will look.
Thanks fluid/ Richard. You have quite a list of clients there! very nice.

The reason I've asked you is cause I had a request from a client to send him the final work in EPS format even if I've specified that I use only Photoshop for creating my work and not a vector program. I suggested PNG but he asked for EPS insted at the advice of his printer guy. So, I've sent the EPS and it seems it was OK.
Another thing, I had my design made at high resolution, it was around 3000x6000 and when I saved it as EPS it had around 40MB, impossible to send by email because of my connection so I had to reduce it until it occupied 6MB.
Anyway the job was done.

Have fun!
never a fan of skulls but the "boxa king" design is terrific
