Here are some notes to elaborate on the video info that you need to know:
Etsy's MAIN goal is to Keep Commerce Human
You are NOT allowed to take a premade design from Canva, Kittle, Creative Fabrica, etc., slap it on a t-shirt, and add it as a listing to your shop. You MUST manipulate the design and make the end design a unique piece.
You are NOT recommended to use mockups for the first listing image that say something like "Your Text Here" to show the customizability of an item. The first mockup image must be what the end item "will" look like, and you can add the "Your Text Here" mockup later within the other 9 photo options.
