I show you a couple of resources that I use to determine what color to use for more sales and continued passive income.

Immediate thought : black or dark is always best.

After watching the whole video : I *really* thought I was doing something... > ***MANAGE PORTFOLIO***

I wish Redbubble gave the custom colour option to the customer, so the colour we choose as a vendor doesn’t/wouldn’t inhibit people buying the design if they don’t like that colour choice. Also, are you planning on making a full-fledged course at some point? It’s great that your videos are so info packed (and free), but a step-by-step course covering all aspects of the path to (possible) POD success would be awesome - and no doubt popular. Greetings from West Yorkshire 👍

It wasn't mentioned in the video, but those of us who can't afford Photoshop can use Photopea. It's a free online tool that's similar to Photoshop in many ways. Of course, it doesn't have all the capabilities of Photoshop but it's more than adequate for most POD purposes. Once you don't mind ads on the right side of the work area, you're good to go.

This has been something at the back of my mind.., lately, so thank you!!

[Dreanpitch]

Very useful, i usually go conservative with bright designs over black products, but good color choices is something that I may have overlooked, and those hacks can expand my options! Great, thank you

[jamesmccleese]

awesome!! I'll definitely be using this.

[dominikblaha]

Made my day lol. Didnt want to waste time watching videos but you just saved me a lot o time! Thank you.

[francisnduka]

Made my day lol. Nice video and channel. Thank you for the PSD file, Very useful.

[ruperttappin]

Man, I just came across your channel and subscribe, very cool stuff, thank you. I am from London and just started selling on Redbubble this week, definitely going to put these tips in place.

[denisesomewherearoundhere]

The custom color looks great. But does Redbubble have that color in a shirt?

[GreenlifeFin]

Nice video and channel, thanks. Very useful.

[Storystein]

Black isn't always the best option? Disgrace! A very insightful video, thank you :) I've always eyeballed it, but I realize that such a tool might be more effective.

[elizabethlengle]

Shirt mockup owl doesn't work for me. I don't have Photoshop, is this the reason? Would love to have access to this or something similar! Thank You!

[genesiscreation]

Hello, i need your help! I create most of the designs for only Black and white t-shirts. But, Redbubble put it on all colors and it looks bad on other colors than Black and White which i want. How to select only limited colors of shirts to show on my store? Please help me i couldn't figure it out.

[rafaelatakami]

Great video, thank you! I have a question. If you choose that color to your products, what color do you usually put in the standard print and the large clothes? I usually get lost

[KarenAllisonrc]

Hi, Passive Owl, is there a limit as to how many colors a designer can place on T-Shirts or other POD designs? Is having a lot of colors on a design going to add to the cost of the T-Shirt? Thank you for your video it was very informative and I just subscribed. :)

[tedsmith]

Hello Passive Owl. I am starting my Tees business. I am mainly using Placeit for designs, and Teespring and Redbubble for my stores. Should I be using more stores such as Printful? Also, what do you think about PIXLR. I believe they have a free version? so I don't have to pay at least as a beginner for Photoshop. Thanks, I enjoy your videos!

[cd-vgnz]

Thank you for the mock up. I noticed about a week ago that the tote bag has a color picker, so it will be handy to pick colors there as well. It made me wonder though, what color is the other side of the tote bag that is not shown. Do you know? I have never picked a color for the backside of the tote before, I just always did the color thing at top which does not have a picker. Now I am wondering what the customer is getting.

[alekosimba]

5:00 so what does that mean? The customers will decide which color to choose for the first 2 products? Or will they always see white colored shirts with that design?

[ajalalawal]

Hey guys
How can I remove the design from back of a t-shirt on Redbubble
Unlike Teespring you can choose not to put the design on the back of the t-shirt
It’s not really nice with the design at the back of the shirt
Anyone help with this
Thank you
