In the realm of digital design and printing, achieving true color accuracy is both an art and a science. This precision is largely dependent on the successful use and understanding of ICC (International Color Consortium) color profiles, as well as advanced visualization techniques. These tools play a critical role in ensuring what you see on your screen is as close as possible to the final printed product. This blog post aims to unravel the complexities of ICC color profiles and explore the innovative use of 3D color space visualization to enhance our understanding of printable colors. We use color profiles calibrated for the specific printers to ensure what you see on the screen is as perceptually close to what is actually printed as possible. Since the gamut of actual printed colors is not as absolute or as uniform as sRGB, not all RGB values can be converted to a printable color while simultaneously ensuring all printable colors can fit into the displayed RGB gamut, which is a priority.

With the rebrand, we are introducing template categories. We want to provide greater creative opportunity to designers within the same template theme. Previously, for example, if your team logo featured a hexagon shape then you were likely to gravitate towards our hexagon themed jersey. Previously, there's only been a single hexagon themed jersey template. So by that perspective, your options were limited. Well, that's not the case anymore. With our new product filtering option within our online designer, you will now be able to browse templates within the same theme. Our concern with limiting templates previously was in regards to overwhelming clients. Since that concern is solved with template filtering, we will fully embrace exploring each template niche with much greater and ongoing options.
