Graphics Guide for DIY Templates

Got a knack for creating your own Graphics? No Problem!

We currently have 6 DIY Templates available within our Shoppe Admin for you to choose from. These Templates are precoded so all you have to do is upload your own graphics!

How easy is that? Simply follow the Graphics Guide below and you're set!

Although sizes other than what is listed below will probably work with our DIY Shoppes,
we recommend that these guidelines be followed to assure the graphics will display properly.

Also, please be sure that your graphics are named properly and in the right format.

You may print this page or forward it to your Graphics Designer
