DesignCrowd Help


What files will I get?
You will receive different files depending on the type of project you run and the type of design you are requesting.  DesignCrowd has Minimum Design Standards that specify certain required file types (see the lists below) that you will receive for each type of project.  You will receive these file types unless you specify otherwise in your project brief.  You may also receive some additional files ("source files") depending on the designer who submitted the design. 

Table: DesignCrowd Standard Files by Type of Design

  • 1 EPS file vector file - fully scalable and editable for use with printers
  • 1 Large JPG file - for use in high quality documents
