When I make thread designs I start with making the width 900px, and the height I normally set to 1500px and increase it as I go if I need more. Though overall on most resolutions, 900px is a good choice for the width. (It might look a bit off on phones however, not the "Might".)

Also 1 more question, the text's size is very small when I have it on 72pt, with the dimensions 900x1200.
Why is this?
I tried 1296pt (the max) and it is still very small.
I'mma reinstall Photoshop and see if it will fix the problem.

Of course, using 72pt will make it small. It also heavily depends on the font. Some have a smaller canvas to work with, hence when they are scaled they might appear small. Though at max pt they should be far too big. So either try different fonts, or make sure you are actually changing the font. (From what you its seems like you aren't selecting the text you want to change before changing it's size.)

I am trying this with the Google font called montserrat or whatever it is called.
I am not new to Photoshop, I selected all the text and changed the size to 72pt.
At 1296pt it is still small so I have to use the transform controls in order to make them bigger.

You actively selected the text after selecting the layer using the Text Tool? If not then deselect the Text Tool and open the "Characters" window and change font and size from there after selecting the layer of the text. These are those sizes on a 900x1500 canvas:

Make certain you've zoomed into 100% Btw. (CTRL + 1)
And remember to set your resolution to 72 when making a new document.

No wonder it wasn't working, my resolution was 1... xD
So basically I am reinstalling Photoshop for nothing.
Thank you.

Might be that. For future reference. If you are making something to be showcased digitally (such as web design, thread designs etc.) then use 72 in Resolution. If you want to print something, then go all the way up to 300 resolution. Aside from those two numbers, you don't need t o remember anything else.

Alright, resolution 72 = HD right?

Yes, resolution 72 is best optimized for digital use.
