Design Revisions - How We Define Them at Magic Wear
Design Revisions can be requested if and only if you've purchased a Template or Fully Custom Design Fee to begin the custom apparel design process. Keep in mind, design revisions do not apply to our Ready Designs category where you can only personalize our existing artwork with a custom name, size, collar type and pocket type.
How Many Design Revisions Do I Get with My Design Fee Purchase?
All of our Design Fees include 2 free rounds of design revisions after receiving your first draft via email. After this point, any additional revision requests will incur a $50/hour fee paid up front.
What is a "Round" of Design Revisions?
After you purchase a design fee, you will receive the first draft via email. Take time to review the artwork and respond to the email chain detailing your thoughts including ALL minor change requests you may have in one email response (not multiple emails). We will review your notes, make the necessary changes, and provide you with a revised second draft.
This process constitutes one "round" of design revisions. After reviewing the second draft, you have one free round remaining. Again, any change requests after receiving the third draft will incur a $50/hour fee paid up front.
How Do We Define Design Revisions at Magic Wear?
Design revisions are defined as a tweak or modification of the initial concept. These requests stay within the originally agreed-upon project scope. It’s a fine-tuning process that brings the design closer to what was initially envisioned.
Consider the following examples to better understand what qualifies as minor design revisions when you purchase a Template:
- Correcting placement or alignment issues.
- Scaling the size of logos, images or text to appear larger or smaller.
- Adjusting fonts for readability or stylistic reasons.
- Minor changing of colors for better alignment with branding or mood.
- Revising custom text requested.
- Moving logos, images or text to a new location on the design.
- Adding strokes/outlines to text for easier readability.
On top of the above examples, additional scenarios qualify as minor design revisions when you purchase a Fully Custom Design Fee:
- Adding new elements to the design.
- Slightly altering existing design elements to better capture your initial concept.
- Providing new example images to better explain your initial vision if the first draft didn't hit the mark.
What are Major Design Changes?
In contrast to minor design revisions, a major change request ventures outside the initial scope, impacting timelines and costs of the custom apparel design process.
To clarify what constitutes a major design change or a change request, here are some examples:
- A complete overhaul of the original design concept, requiring the design team to start from scratch.
- A shift in the design direction midway through the project, necessitating a complete redesign of any elements.
- Expanding the scope to include significant additional custom design labor not originally agreed upon.
Clearly understanding this difference sets the stage for a smoother, more efficient design process.
Bottom Line
Communication is key, and it is in your best interest to provide as much information as possible before we begin the design process. Research your idea online looking for reference images to better explain the look, color palette, mood, and style of your vision.
After putting your initial request in writing, you are always welcome to request a phone call or video chat with the designer assigned to your project to better explain what you'd like. We'll take notes and send you a summary after the call to keep all instructions written down for us to reference in the future.
