Ryan, you are a wealth of knowledge. Even though I have been printing for two and a half years, I enjoy watching your videos as I always learn something new. If I could offer some constructive criticism....you talk really fast. If I did not have experience behind me already, my mind would have been blown and I would have had to stop the video and/or replay parts to try to digest what you said. Keep up the good work and awesome videos!!!

[@milkshuhua8524]

I finally saw a tutorial that included the setting principles.

[@AGQuantum]

Thanks for making all these videos. They have been so helpful ! :)

[@monrea10]

[@cindydurant5100]

Do you have a video or info on how to change the Artisan 1430 printer to use all black inks?

[@rodiron]

Is the template only available through purchase?

[@risbill1]

Illustrator and photoshop have been on PC for a long time so not sure why you recommend a corell draw for PC.

[@nothing-sq9ok]

how come it needs the white underbase?

[@badshahzxcvbnm]

what monthly plan do you have with adobe illustrator? 9.99- 49.99?

[@mrogalla3892]

are the tshirt guide and registration marks no longer available?

[@carlosfigueroa8299]

Illustrator includes simpler ways to create overprints: using layers and Copy and Paste in Front eliminates the need to align superimposed images manually (always a source of headaches). Thanks!

WHATS BETTER FOR DESIGNING MAC OR PC?

[@Ryonet]

Hey there! Either Mac or PC can be used for your design computer, they both work very well.

[@colinmurphy8119]

2:48 How exactly did you overlay your 13 x 19 canvas onto the t-shirt template?

[@DishSoap3]

He made a canvas that was 13x19. Opened the t-shirt template in that canvas. Dragged the corner of the t-shirt box to scale it bigger than the 13x19 canvas. If you have artwork that overhangs the canvas, you will see the black outline of the canvas over the top of the image for reference.

[@OffbeatOracle]

So why do you say the templates are free in the video, but once you go to the site it costs $29.99?

[@factoryinks2372]

watch my diy registration template video you can make your own registration board for a fraction of the cost

[@jonathanzambrano6349]

I couldn't find your video.

[@Ryonet]

The link that we had on the product description needed to be updated. The downloads should be on the new link in the product description.

[@johnnyr.3941]

Where can I find the t-shirt template package?

[@Ryonet]

[@ruciokas]

Why you didn't make white print a little bit smaller rather than making red larger?

[@Ryonet]

You can choose to either choke or stroke your artwork! We just chose to stroke the red for the purpose of this video but you can do either.

[@AvinashSingh-kw6oj]

Why do you keep saying red when the color is clearly an orange?

[@joachim007]

So why do you say the templates are free in the video, but once you go to the site it costs $29.99?

[@daltontyson]

The exact comment as above.
