Upload Your First Artwork

Time estimate: about 3 minutes to upload, plus up to 2 business days for review.

Artwork is the image you place on products. Every product on Artist 360 uses at least one piece of artwork, and every artwork passes through review before it can be used. This page walks you through your first upload.

Before you begin

Have your image file ready. PNG, JPG, and SVG are all supported. Files up to 50 MB are accepted. For print quality, use at least 1500 × 1500 pixels at 150 DPI or higher.

Step 1: Open the upload page

1. Sign in to Creator Studio.
2. Open Artwork → Upload from the Creator Studio menu.

You’ll land on the Upload Artwork page with a title field and a drag-and-drop area.

Step 2: Enter title and file

1. Enter a Title for the artwork. This is how you’ll find it again in your Artwork library.
2. Enter a Description if you want a longer note to yourself (optional).
3. Drag your image file into the upload area, or click the area to browse and select a file.

You’ll see a preview and a confirmation that the file is ready.

Step 3: Upload and submit for review

1. Click Upload Artwork.
2. You’ll land on the new artwork’s detail page. The status is Draft.
3. Click Submit for Review. The status changes to Pending Review.

Draft vs Pending Review

A Draft artwork is saved to your library but hasn’t been looked at by Artist 360. A Pending Review artwork is in the queue for approval. You can only place approved artwork on products.

File requirements

Requirement	Value	Why
Supported formats	PNG, JPG, SVG	Covers raster and vector art
Maximum file size	50 MB	Fast uploads without hitting browser limits
Minimum dimensions	1500 × 1500 pixels	Ensures enough resolution for print
Minimum DPI	150 DPI	Threshold for acceptable print quality
Recommended	SVG for logos and type, 300 DPI raster for illustrations	Crisp detail on large prints

Files under these thresholds will upload, but you’ll see a Low or Fair DPI badge when you place them on products. That may still be fine for small prints, but large-format items (back prints, poster-size designs) will look noticeably pixelated.

What review checks

Artist 360 review confirms your artwork:

• Meets the minimum dimensions and resolution
• Doesn’t infringe copyright or trademark
• Doesn’t contain prohibited content (hate speech, explicit sexual imagery, etc.)
• Is safe for the print production process (no truly black-only SVG strokes, no corrupt layers)

Most artwork is reviewed within 2 business days. You’ll get a notification when the status changes.

If your artwork is rejected

A rejection includes a reason from the reviewer. Common reasons:

• Resolution below minimum
• Potential trademark or copyright conflict
• Color mode needs adjustment (convert CMYK to RGB)
• File technically corrupted

Open the rejected artwork in your library, click Resubmit, attach a fixed file, and it re-enters the review queue.

What You Accomplished

• Uploaded an image file under 50 MB
• Added a title (and optional description)
