I’m looking for an experienced graphic designer to help clean up and prepare concept designs for print. Pricing is for the first design concept then if it works well I will hire you to do a batch of designs. The artwork/design concepts need to be professionally refined and made production-ready. The work may include fixing or recreating text, cleaning up distorted patterns, sharpening details, improving linework, adjusting composition, removing artifacts, preparing transparent backgrounds, and ensuring the final files are high-resolution and suitable for apparel printing. Experience with Printify, Printful, or similar print-on-demand platforms is preferred, especially if you understand file requirements for shirts, hoodies, and other apparel. The goal is to take the existing concepts and make them clean, polished, and ready to upload for printing. Initial scope: * I would like to begin with one test design first * After reviewing the first completed design and confirming the quality meets expectations, we can proceed with the remaining 25-30 designs. Deliverables should include: * High-resolution print-ready files * Transparent background versions where appropriate * Files suitable for both light and dark apparel, as applicable * Source/editable files if available * Final formats such as PNG, SVG, PDF, AI, PSD, or other appropriate print-ready formats Ideal candidate: * Strong graphic design and digital cleanup skills * Experience preparing artwork for apparel printing * Ability to fix design issues without losing the original concept * Good eye for typography, symmetry, spacing, and detail * Familiarity with Printify file requirements is a plus * Able to communicate clearly and make revisions as needed Please include examples of previous print-ready apparel designs or AI artwork cleanup projects, along with your per-design rate and typical turnaround time. The first design will be used as a quality test before moving forward with the full batch. Also, if you have experience setting up Printify or similar drop-shipping system, there could be additional paid opportunity to have you load the files and present mock-ups for print. Images may be provided to those who sign the NDA. Start your message to me with GREATREMEMBER so I can see you read the instructions and didn't just kick an automated bid in. I'm looking for a long-term relationship with someone who will continue to help me with design work.

GREATREMEMBER Your brief landed in front of the right person. With 20+ years in print production and digital artwork refinement — working extensively in Illustrator, Photoshop, and Affinity Designer — I've prepared countless files for apparel printing, including POD platforms like Printify and Printful. I know their file specs, bleed requirements, and color mode nuances inside out. For a project like yours, I approach each design with surgical precision: fixing linework, rebuilding distorted elements, reconstructing typography where needed, cleaning artifacts, and delivering layered source files alongside print-ready PNGs and vectors with transparent backgrounds — optimized for both light and dark garments. My turnaround for a single design cleanup/rebuild is typically 2–3 business days depending on complexity. Per-design rate for the test piece and the batch will be scoped once I see the artwork — fair pricing, no surprises. I'm also experienced with setting up Printify stores, uploading files, and generating mockups, so that additional opportunity you mentioned is absolutely within scope. I work clean, communicate clearly, and treat every file like it's going into production tomorrow — because it usually is. One question that'll help me quote the test design accurately: do you want it rebuilt as clean vector artwork wherever possible, or should its original textures and distressed details be preserved for the final print?

Hi, The first test design will be carefully refined into clean, production ready apparel artwork while preserving the original concept and character. I’ll manually correct typography, distorted shapes, weak linework, spacing, symmetry, artifacts, and composition instead of simply enlarging or applying filters to the existing image. The final artwork will be optimized for Printify and Printful, including high resolution transparent PNG files, suitable versions for light and dark garments, and editable AI or PSD source files where appropriate. The first design can be completed within 1 to 2 days, and the same quality controlled workflow can then be applied consistently across the remaining 25 to 30 designs. I can also prepare mockups and assist with product uploads for the wider collection. Portfolio: https://www.freelancer.com/u/Humaumair12 Warm Regards, Huma
