Color reduced design in Photoshop

Since you can only use 2 colors in the design scarf we recommend making your design in black and white. The colors later can be changed in the Online Designer.

Start a file in the correct pixel measurements of your desired size.

Design scarf color reduced

If you already have a design place it on the scarf.

You can draw already color reduced and pixel perfect with the pencil-tool. If you would rather use the brush-tool you have to color reduce the whole design in the end.

Click Image > Adjustments > Threshold in the top bar and choose the settings as you like.

Single pixels can be edited and corrected with the pencil-tool now.

Save the finished design as a png-8-file and check the file to be still color-reduced. Then you can upload the design to the online-designer and choose the colors you like.

Backside:

The backside of the design scarf cannot be designed. The design from the front is displayed there mirror inverted, and the colors are swapped.
