Why Are My Stickers Changing Size When I Upload My File?

Hi there! Do you love stickers as much as we do? We bet you do! Today, we're going to talk about something important that happens when you upload your artwork to make stickers at Sticker Print.

What's the Deal with Sticker Sizes?

So, you've created a super cool design, and you're ready to turn it into a sticker. You upload your file to our website, but then you notice something strange—your sticker size has changed! Why is this happening? Let’s break it down in a way that’s easy to understand.

Keeping the Proportions

Imagine you have a drawing that is 3 inches wide and 2 inches tall. When you upload this to our website, we use something called a contour cut-line. This fancy word just means we make a special outline around your artwork to cut it out perfectly.

Now, here’s the important part: our editor keeps the original proportions of your artwork. This means if your drawing is 3 inches wide and 2 inches tall, we will cut it exactly that way. We can’t magically make it 3 inches by 3 inches without stretching or squishing your drawing, which would make it look weird.

What Can You Do?

If you want your stickers to be a different shape, like a perfect circle or square, you’ll need to edit your artwork before you upload it. Here are some tips to help you:

Edit Your Artwork: Use your drawing or design program to change the size or shape of your artwork. Make sure it looks the way you want before uploading it.
Choose a Different Shape: Instead of trying to make your artwork fit a specific size, consider using our circle or square sticker options. These shapes can help you get the size you want without changing your design’s proportions.

Let’s Recap!

When you upload your artwork to Sticker Print, we keep the original proportions.
If your drawing is 3 inches by 2 inches, it will stay that way.
To change the shape or size, edit your artwork or choose a different sticker shape.

We hope this helps you understand why your stickers might change size when you upload your file. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to us. Happy sticker-making! 🌟
