Hello all, I'm wondering how you fine people design your mugs before printing.

I'm having problems with the printing side but that's another thread lol.
I was trying to design a mug tonight with a picture on the front and just text on the rear but I can't for the life of me figure out how to do this.

I am thinking I could maybe do it through Flexisign software as I can't seem to manage it though photoshop.

Make a blank template 210 mm x 92 mm in Photoshop then open your photo copy and paste to your template then adjust to were you want it,then type in your text and adjust to the other side.here's an example of one I've just done.[ATTACH=CONFIG]4095[/ATTACH]

Jeez you make it sound straightforward lol. That's a cracking dog bye the way. Can I ask how you got the jagged edge round your photo?

Put the frame you want on the template then adjust it to the size you want then drag or paste your photo then adjust the photo to the frame.
