New Marketplace Guidelines – For Better Marketplace Quality!

Many called for new guidelines, now they are in place. In the future, the Marketplace will be more fun for our customers and easier to browse. 
Along with some minor updates, a few new fundamental guidelines for examining uploaded designs will be put into place soon. Here are examples of what is no longer accepted:

Photos, e.g. holiday pictures or snapshots

Personal content (e.g. URL, emails, birthdays)

Spreadshirt’s Graphics Service – We’ll Vectorise Your Design for You!

Yep, you read that correctly! Spreadshirt is now offering vectorisation of your pixel graphics! For those of you who don’t want to spend the time creating a vector graphic, or those who don’t feel too comfortable with a graphics programme, we present Graphics Service.

For £12.99 (or €14.95) per design we will take pixel graphics (.jpg, .png etc.) and create a printable vector graphic that meets all of our requirements. All you have to do upload your design on the Graphics Service page in the user area, go through checkout and we’ll take care of the dirty work. You’ll have the vector graphic waiting for your approval in the user area within 5 business days (we’ll inform you via email).

It’s as simple as that! Remember, the better the pixel graphic, the better the vectorised result! This way to Graphics Service!

P.S. For those of you reading this from the United States, not to worry – you’ll have Graphics Service on the .com platform soon!

Into the Blue – 10% off Everything Blue!

Once in a blue moon we go all colour crazy. For the next two days – blue is the colour your eyes should be looking for. And this is no coincidence – blue is very “in” this summer! It’s a great time to get that marine look down.

Be quick about this one – this offer is only valid for the next two days – 5 and 6 July. If I were you, I’d take a closer look at the Timbuk2 Classic Messenger bag in blue/black or the lapis blue Zip Hoodie by American Apparel. With 10% off, those products have a much nicer price tag. And if you’re not looking for anything in particular, our blue colour search on the Marketplace will help you find even more!

Simply use the voucher code TRUEBLUE when going through checkout. Valid on Spreadshirt and in all Spreadshirt partner shops for blue-coloured products.

Meet Some Spreaders – David, Manu and Marco

David, Manuela and Marco are Spreadshirt’s bulk order service, or simply the Bulk Team. They think of themselves as a special task unit, and having spent an hour with the three of them I can only agree. They are a pleasant bunch and scored a fair few times by getting the laughs. We couldn’t get out onto our terraced roof to enjoy the sunshine, though – here you can read which curious circumstance forbade to do so:

(NB: the interview was conducted on a Friday afternoon and we had just run out of coffee…)

It’s great to eventually get the opportunity to meet up for this interview. The three of you seem to be quite a busy lot. So here’s a straightforward question for you: What do you do at Spreadshirt and how long have you been Spreaders? Read more
