Mixboard: Creating design variations for merchandise

Demo summary

The user uploads a t-shirt design and uses Mixboard to generate variations for different professions (engineer, gamer, mechanic) while maintaining the original layout.

Step-by-step

  1. Create a new project in Mixboard
  2. Upload the original t-shirt design file
  3. Enter a prompt specifying the number of variations and the target professions or hobbies
  4. Click the Go button to generate the variations
  5. Review the generated designs for text accuracy and graphic element placement
  6. Run a second generation without specific career instructions to let the AI identify and swap variables automatically

Options

  • Specify exact professions (e.g., mechanic, gamer, engineer)
  • Allow the AI to infer which elements to change based on previous variations

Tips

  • Use this method to quickly adapt a single design for multiple niches like memes or printable products
  • Verify that the AI correctly adjusts text placement to accommodate different graphic elements

Highlights

this could be a handy way to take one design and make it work for multiple niches
