Advice for how to make t-shirt cover photos? Seems to me that the shirts themselves (in the cover photos) would have to look like the ones Zazzle sells so as not to deceive the customer. Thanks!!
I create a neutral background scene, cut out the shape of the model wearing the shirt, then add that background as a top layer onto a downloaded image, before exporting as a jpeg to upload as a cover pic. The layer can be used over and over again.

Thank you, Nigel! Now I’m wondering how we determine what size image/pixels we need. : )
@CherylJones They don’t need to be print worthy so 72dpi is plenty for web (other designers may do differently - as I save each cover photo - I don’t like to fill my hard drive up with large files) 2k plenty - and zazzle optimizes them anyway

Thank you, Sara! What about the size in dimensions?
@CherylJones I said in my reply - 2k (2048 x 2048) but I normally size to 1500 x 1500 before I upload

This is what I came up with for this T-Shirt, which I moved into my new store; I used Pixabay for the background, and added the candy sprinkles with my drawing program.
