What a Colorway Is, and What It Commits You To A colorway is a named, approved assignment of colors to every part of one design. The name covers the shell; the commitment covers everything else.
Print Resolution for Apparel: DPI Means Nothing Without Size DPI is pixels divided by inches, and only the pixels live in the file. A print spec that names a DPI without a printed width has named half a number.
AI Merch Generators: One Artwork, Three Substrates A merch generator makes one file. Cotton, ceramic, and hardgoods each need something different from it, and none of it is decided at export.
Outfit Swap vs. Garment Swap: Replacing a Look or a Piece Outfit swap replaces the whole look; garment swap replaces one piece. The difference is what stays in frame to check the result against.
Points of Measure: Turning Fit Into Something Checkable A measurement point turns a judgment into something two parties can disagree about productively. Which is a different job from describing how a garment fits.
Mixing Two Prints: Scale Conflicts Before Color Conflicts Color clashes read as a decision. Scale clashes read as a mistake, because two motifs at competing sizes give the eye no way to decide what it is looking at.
Extracting a Print From a Garment Photo Six separate distortions sit between a printed garment and the artwork on it. Extraction produces an estimate of the original, and estimates have uses.
Batch Processing Product Images: Where Single-Image Tools Break A tool is judged on its best output and a pipeline on its worst. Which changes where the cost sits: not in processing the images but in finding the failures.
Design Agents: Which Verification Steps Cannot Be Removed Verification used to happen because the work stopped and somebody looked. Agents remove the stopping, which means checks have to be placed rather than assumed.
Fabric Movement on Camera: A Function of Weight and Stiffness Two properties govern how cloth moves, and neither of them is visible in a photograph. Which means appearance carries no information about motion at all.
How Product Images Drive Return Rates Conversion measures whether an image persuaded. Returns measure whether it was accurate. Optimizing only on the first selects for images that overpromise.
Changing Garment Color in a Photo: The Apparel-Specific Rules A garment is several fabrics joined by seams, with parts that must not change at all. Which rules follow from that, and why direction of change matters most.
