Pet T-shirt design ideas

A pet portrait works best when it preserves the details that make the animal recognizable: ear shape, coat markings, and expression. Explore public previews to compare portrait treatments before making your own. Start with the Pet portrait concept, which turns one photo into a portrait in a style you choose, or with the Funny Cat Moment concept for an illustrated scene. The custom dog shirt guide walks through the photo, the background and the placement step by step.

What to compare

• For a photo-based portrait, choose a clear reference with the face visible and describe the markings or expression you want to preserve.
• Compare a close portrait with a full-body illustration. A face can carry more recognizable detail within a small print area.
• Inspect the eyes, ears, and coat pattern in Design view, then use Product view to check how the portrait sits on the garment.
• Take the photo at the animal's eye level in daylight. Flash flattens the face and blows out light fur.
• Give a face the center of the chest. The small left-chest spot turns a portrait into a smudge.
