...find it hard to only use 8 colors on their designs?

no. because you can pretty much use as many colors as you want with the simulated process.

and you used to be limited to 4.

so no.

you know, it was only a little over a year ago when we could only use four colors in our designs...

yikes! 4 colors!

So if I make a design with a bunch of colors, I can say to use the simulated process and they will allow the shirt to be submitted? Or are there restrictions when using it? I read the submission kit, but it dosnt fully explain everything.

Thanks for helping this noob!

I remember back in the day you could only use one color, and that was the color of the shirt itself...

tell me your stories ipear!

yeah you can pretty much do what you said dusty, but if you can stick to 8 then i'd stick to 8. The less colors the less expensive to print, right?

personally, i'm a bit tired of all the simulated designs. seems lazyish. but that's just me.

I subbed this under my old account "OmairThePantha" and it almost got printed, but then threadless changed up it's rulings so I decided to sell it to HIp Hop West, and I made like 340934049 pesos.

No, I like limited colour, I still try to stick to 5. Don't know why, guess I'm just a wierdo.

also, its hard to explain, but the colors have to be used correctly to make a simulated process print. you cant just use 20 colors and say its simulated process

I like *invisible* ink on *invisible* fabric - but it's a bit chilly in winter
