Sticksy

What resolution should my artwork be?

Aim for 300 DPI at the printed size. DPI means dots per inch, so you need about 300 pixels for every inch of sticker, measured along the longest side:

Sticker sizeImage size for 300 DPI
2 inches600 pixels
3 inches900 pixels
4 inches1200 pixels
5 inches1500 pixels

Artwork between 150 and 300 DPI can still look fine, especially on bigger stickers, though it may look a bit soft up close. Below 150 DPI it usually prints blurry or pixelated.

Stretching a small image to a bigger size makes it blurrier, so start from the largest original you have. The creator scales images larger than 2048 pixels down to 2048 pixels on the longest side, so uploading anything bigger won't change the result.
