Quick question why are the basic colors almost hued to a grey when you put it on a shirt? Is there a way to get it not to do that or is it just redbubble’s equipment cannot handle those colors. |

Are you creating your design in RGB or CMYK? As the printing system uses CMYK to create the t shirt I would recommend designing in that and then converting to RBG to save as a PNG file. With CMYK there are not as many colours available as with RGB, which is why some colours do appear muddier as if there is no CMYK equivalent to an RGB colour and it tries to find the closest colour out of those available.
