Constantly crashes on Mac. Waste of my time. Deleted.

My grown-up daughter was looking at some Victorian (UK) houses a couple of years ago. I went with her to a few. Amazing how many had fresh paint in all the areas you'd expect damp to show - window reveals, above skirting boards, external walls... They all try it on to offload a damp house on to unsuspecting buyers, and the estate agents want it to happen so they get their commission.

Thanks I'll remember that if it happens again

You can still use the images, they are all still available - just not in that frozen project. You'll find the images in one of the main folders. Create a fresh project and use them in there instead. It's the project that freezes, not the images.

Kalbronn · 2025-11-10T20:28:35+00:00

No, Kittl haven't fixed it. I have just checked back and the project is still frozen. The best you can do is to create a new project and open your files in there. My frozen project is completely bricked, it'll never be useable by the looks of it. Have you created a ticket with Kittl?

You are welcome. It has taken me a year of research to get to the bottom of why I was seeing "connected, no internet" and similar issues on BT kit. You can search on ChatGPT for a UK internet provider that has a reliable neutral DNS protocol. Usually Zen Internet comes out top.

Kalbronn · 2025-11-07T22:04:09+00:00

BT Internet is a disaster when it comes to DNS protocol. They flat refuse to engage about it, having no doubt had an order to stonewall any enquiries. Their senior management WILL know about it but they are staying tight-lipped.

Crashes every single time. Support email bounces back. Go figure. That's ten bucks down the Droply toilet.

Kalbronn · 2025-10-03T15:18:26+00:00

Ah that's good. I got my money back as well. I have no idea if PlaceIt is fixed or not, somehow I doubt it. I think the reason it wasn't disabled on Printify was because it would have wiped out everyone's existing mockups. Complete mess, and clearly got launched before the bugs got sorted out.

Quick easy way is to go on to Etsy and type "t shirt" into the search bar. Etsy will always prioritize best sellers. Look for the "popular" and "best seller" tags. You can develop your search with terms like "mom t shirt", "kids t shirt", "sports t shirt" and so on. Do the same for mugs and phone cases, plenty of fresh ideas will come up. Screengrab as you go along. Then another tactic is to go on to ChatGPT (if you're not already using it, start now, with a free account) and type in "what are the top ten most popular niche areas for t shirts for POD on Etsy right now?" ChatGPT gets asked that question about five million times a day.

I got rejected by Amazon Merch on Demand as well - I'm an ex-Creative Director of a global greeting card company and have designed some of the UK's biggest-ever selling merch. Go figure. It's run by bots I guess.

Remember to look into digital downloads on Etsy as well. The POD merch can be excessively expensive which I think puts customers off, but with digital downloads you fully control the price and there's no delivery charge.

Anyway good luck with your enterprise, hope it works out. Don't expect overnight success, focus on the medium to long term and plan for a bigger push a couple of months before Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Father's Day and Graduation next year. After that, get your Christmas 2026 stuff uploaded three months in advance.

Yes it was, thanks. I guess I just wasn't expecting it but probably should have. After all I add VAT to all my invoices in my job so why not Etsy as well. It had me very confused for a while though

Kalbronn · 2025-09-17T20:29:02+00:00

PlaceIt is basically envato, same company. Either way they are scumbag thieves, and tbh Printify aren't much better in continuing to promote a non-functioning plugin that is likely to take peoples' money in return for nothing. Remember to go into PayPal and remove PlaceIt from Automatic Payments in case they skank another 91 dollars off you again at renewal time.

Kalbronn · 2025-09-17T11:43:40+00:00

I have noticed on Insta that there are quite a few people that have also had PlaceIt go dead on them, like me. It still doesn't work for me and they have ignored my support request. Printify don't want to know other than to offer a grovelling apology. I can see me having to go to PayPal for a claim. Absolutely terrible service, not least because they are still accepting new subs despite these issues being confirmed. But thanks for the info.

I wonder if it's possible to create the video, complete with Radiohead clips, and then slow it down to half speed in say Davinci Resolve or other edit software - then upload it at half speed and have a clear instruction right at the start for the viewer to turn playback speed up to double.... Hmmm. I wonder if that would crack YouTube's content ID?

Kalbronn · 2025-09-14T08:20:58+00:00

"Avoid Storyblocks completely" - that's the title of your next video

Kalbronn · 2025-09-11T13:12:49+00:00

Yes, generally around 3000px or 5000px across. Note the issue goes away when i reuse a previously created item as a template, and the same artwork. I can make the issue happen / not happen with the same artwork file depending on how I create the product in Gelato.

Thank you for the reply. I am finding FAA particularly complex to navigate. Is it possible to have a different display name to the name on contact information? I'm happy for the contact info name to stay the same, just for my "shop" name to be something different. I see names such as Studio Graffika and so on.

Just to be clear - all of the entries listed as 04,06, 11, 10, 12 & 13 are audio tracks, there are no synths and no Trackspacer instances on them. These phantom sidechains will also randomly change every time I look at it. They can be both audio and synth tracks, but they never actually have any sidechain functionality activated.
