How to place an order:

  1. View our wholesale garment catalogs and online ideas @ http://culturestudio.net/stock.html.

  2. Choose the garments you would like to use then fill out our Tech pack and order form for a precise quote. On the order form fill out what type of garment as well as the print locations. Be as specific as possible. Place your artwork on top of the t-shirt to show size and positioning but also send the artwork in a separate camera-ready format. We prefer to have vector artwork if doing spot color printing.

  3. Upload your art work, tech pack and order form using our uploading system by clicking here or email sales@culturestudio.com or call 312.243.8304.

What types of art files do you accept?

We can usually work with just about any type of art file short of a paper napkin. Below is a list of common files we can easily work with.

If your file type is not listed above, please send it anyway. We will do our best to convert it into a file we can work with. If for some reason we can not work with the file(s) you have sent us we will notify you immediately.

Please make sure you send us the highest resolution and largest size of your image (300 DPI or greater preferred). The better the artwork you send, the better the shirts will look. If you have any questions regarding your artwork, please contact us at Culturesudio.net.

How do I get my artwork files to you?

You have three options for sending your artwork files:

1. You can upload your art files here. Sometimes the upload feature can be a problem for some users due to file types, image sizes, and connection speeds. If you encounter a problem trying to upload your artwork, see option 2.

 


2. You can email your artwork to us at Culturesudio.net Our mail server will accept file sizes up to 5mb.

3. If you have really large artwork files we have a special ftp site ready to accept your large files. Simply contact us at Culturesudio.net for the ftp instructions.


I need help with my artwork – can you help us?
Absolutely, at culture studio, we can help you with basic edits and layouts and that type of work is included in the prices. However, if you require full featured, created from scratch artwork, just give us a call and we will see what we can do to create that perfect design for you. Our typical hourly rate is just $45 an hour for full featured, created from scratch concept artwork designed by one of our four in-house artists. Remember that an artwork fee will only be charged for that created from scratch, custom designed artwork. Basic edits and layouts are included in our price and are typical of over 99% of our orders. If you have any doubt or questions just call or email us.

Will I see a sample before you run my order?

We have an excellent electronic proofing system in place. Generally within 2 business days of placing your order you will receive an electronic proof of your artwork designs. This proof will show you ink colors, image sizes, placement, etc. We do not begin production of your order until you have approved your electronic proof.

Production samples are not provided for orders under 1,000 units unless requested and may incur a sampling charge. If your order is 1,000 units or more and there is sufficient lead times, at your request, we will produce a production sample for you at no charge. Please call us for further details.


How long will it take to produce my order?
Once you have placed your order you can expect to receive your electronic proof within 2 business days. Once you have approved your art proof your order will be put in our production schedule and will be produced within 10 business days. Once produced, your order will be shipped out via UPS Ground.
