Wrote up a post on my site for easy tutorials ... will add to it .. but for now theres easy to follow tutorials on template making for text .. image and profile / business cards

if you find it useful please leave a comment on the site .. if you have questions I would most likely see them on here

I'm going to try and add instructions for the most common questions ... so instead of having to retype I can redirect Idea

If you know of a tutorial that would be useful on there please let me know

theres also a link to free to use png frames for cards .. feel free to use them if you need to Grin

Too cool, DT! I haven't looked at them yet, but I definitely plan to do so, as I'm quite sure I have plenty to learn from "the master"!Grin

Hey DT! Awesome Tuts!

I have a question though about Templates.

Can I make a design or character/Image for others to make stuff with and make money from it? How would I do the "product"? Any advice on where to go to set up something like that???

ThanX!

DT - awesome! You're the man!

Ariana - do you mean something like this: http://krwgraphics.com/create.htm

I have it set so people pick the image they like and click on it. They they are brought to a page where they can select which Zazzle item(s) they want it on.

If that's what you mean, then you are looking to set up an API. Go into MyZazzle and in the lower right click the link for more promotional tools. Then in the middle of the page, you'll se a section for Creat a Product API

DT, since you wrote the Tutorial, maybe you could answer a Text Template question for me.....

Why can't I make more than one line of text as a Template? I need to do at least 3 lines when I am doing my (3 Initial) Monogram items.

I hope you can't help me. If not, that is cool. Thanks go to you no matter what Smile

Do each line one at a time ... in their own separate text boxes .. making each into a template as described in the text tutorial

That is how I do it, but I get an error after the first one. Prompt error I believe is what it says.

Well, I am not sure what the problem was before, but it seems to be working now. I just made a mousepad, suitable for adding a monogram, and I had no problem getting the template set up. Thanks for replying to me DT Smile
