Before continuing, confirm all three:

You own the artwork or have permission to let another person use it in eligible AMS orders.
The recipient needs this exact version, rather than artwork they can edit, export or pass on.
You understand that stopping new adds leaves previously accepted versions with their recipients.

Having a saved copy does not establish sharing permission. Keep the artwork private while you check uncertain rights. A Share control cannot make that decision for you.

Need a different name, graphic or wording? Arrange an authorized changed version with the owner first. Adding does not grant artwork editing, production-file downloads, re-sharing or publication rights.

My Designs checks the saved source and ownership before showing Share. Being in your library is the starting point.

Saved source	Sharing guidance
Your eligible upload or generated design	May qualify without running Make Print Ready first.
Your eligible prepared ProFile	May qualify as its exact prepared version, under its existing restrictions.
Purchased, Design Library, order or File Fix artwork	Excluded from this sharing action.
Artwork received from someone else or published to your account by staff	Receiving it does not make it yours to distribute through Share.

The important choice is whether another person who receives the link should be allowed to use it.

Audience	Who can preview and add?	Check first
Specific people	The account with the exact invited verified email can review and explicitly add.	Confirm the recipient’s account email. Forwarding does not grant another account access.
Anyone with the link	The active unlisted link has a public preview. Another eligible signed-in account can explicitly add.	Use only when forwarding and that wider audience are acceptable.

Creating an invitation puts it in AMS. This feature sends no email or text. You pass the link to its intended recipient yourself.

An eligible upload can be shared before Make Print Ready. It keeps its saved appearance and still needs a quality check at the size you intend to print.

Check	Raw shared artwork	Prepared shared ProFile
Preparation before sharing	Not required for an eligible raw source.	Uses an eligible completed prepared version.
Recipient label	Shared artwork.	ProFile.
What to review	Artwork quality at intended print size and any preparation the order requires.	The accepted prepared version, printed as-is under its existing restrictions.
Before ordering	Review size, placement, readiness and proof.	Review size, placement, readiness and proof.

A small screenshot still needs careful inspection at shirt size. Check lettering, edges and background at the intended print size. The artwork guide explains the checks.

An owner change does not silently replace the version you accepted. Review a new offered version separately. Follow the recipient steps to find or use an accepted design.

Find the offer under Shared by me and choose Stop new adds. Check that the intended offer shows as stopped.

Action	Effect
Stop new adds	Closes that offer to new additions. Other active offers are separate.
Return to an accepted version	Use the saved entry even after that offer stops or expires.
Remove the owner’s original from My Designs	Does not recall the recipient’s accepted version.
Hide a received entry	Removes it from the visible collection; Restore brings it back.

The audience guide explains offer management.

What happened?	What to do
Share is missing	Check the owning account, source eligibility and current sharing availability.
An offer is unavailable before you add	For Specific people, check the invited verified email. If either kind of offer stays unavailable, ask the owner about an intended new invitation. The message does not identify whether it is stopped, expired or restricted.
Add was interrupted	Check My Designs for the saved entry before retrying.
An accepted design is missing	Return to the accepting account. Check Hidden designs and choose Restore.
The old offer stopped after you added	Return through your accepted collection rather than the old invitation.
The accepted entry itself is unavailable	Ask AMS for review. A new offer cannot bypass rights or availability restrictions.
Link copying failed	Select the visible link and copy it manually. Keep it with its intended audience.
