For a custom image, first design the printmark in your favorite image editor. If you want transparent areas (such as a custom border where your photo shows through the center), then you should save your image as a transparent PNG file. This is similar to making a transparent watermark, and we have a great tutorial for creating that kind of file here.When uploading a printmark image to your site, we suggest using an Unlisted (Anyone with the Link) gallery so people can't find it. Tip: We recommend your printmark image be at least 1500 pixels on the longest side, so it looks good on prints big and small.In your Selling Tools, navigate to the Branding section.
