Watermarks: A Slight Change

Back in July, we introduced watermarks for your Marketplace designs to help protect them from unlawful use. The response was overwhelmingly positive, as protecting your intellectual property is very important when running a successful business. At the beginning of December, we’ll be making some slight changes to the watermark on your Marketplace list page design images. Please read on to find out more.

Due to a slight page redesign, a resolution change will be made to the watermark on your Marketplace list page design images. From 5 December forward, the SPREADSHIRT watermark will be displayed at a resolution of 400px instead of the original 350px.

Why the size change?

Our Marketplace list pages have undergone a slight redesign: designs are now displayed across three columns instead of four, and the size of the design images has increased.

With bigger design images, we found that a 350px watermark was often mistaken as part of the design itself. Increasing the watermark resolution from 350px to 400px will allow the watermark to stand out as a protective element, and it will no longer look like an actual part of your designs.

We are serious about helping you protect your work. This tweak will show your design images in a larger and more appealing format.
