Weekly Recap: Overlay Artwork in the Product Gallery 🎨✨

Weekly Recap: Overlay Artwork in the Product Gallery 🎨✨
Hello again, my wonderful photographers!

‍

Candy here, and welcome to another Weekly Recap. This time, we’ve got one exciting improvement to share—overlay artwork now appears by default on product previews in the product gallery!

‍

Let’s take a closer look. 🌟

‍

Overlays Rendered by Default in Product Gallery 🎉

‍

We’ve introduced a fun change for anyone using Banner Overlays or Full Frame Overlays in their NowCandid Events:

‍

  • Visible Overlay Art
    ‍

    Items in the retail site’s product gallery will now display your Event’s overlay artwork right away. Customers can see exactly how their images look on each product, with that extra creative touch of your Event's Overlay Art.

‍

Theme: Marshmallow - Watermarking: Heavy

‍

Theme: Liquourice - Watermarking: None

‍

  • Use Overlay by Default
    ‍

    When customers go to customize or add a product to their cart, the “Use Overlay” option will already be selected. This makes it simpler to highlight your unique event designs or branding. But they can still view & order the product without the overlay art.
    ‍
  • Easy Toggle in Settings
    ‍

    If you prefer to keep products overlay-free by default, no worries! Head to the “Retail Site Settings” in your Profile and uncheck “Use Artwork By Default.” That way, product images will display without your Event overlay art unless customers choose otherwise.

‍

Find this option in your Profile settings

‍

Enabling Use Artwork By Default will feature your Event's Overlay Art on the renders in the product gallery page. Guests can choose to view and order products without the art, but "with overlay art" will be the default selection.

‍

That’s all for this week’s short-and-sweet recap!

‍

We hope this feature adds a little extra flair to your retail experience.

‍

As always, let us know what you think or if you have any feedback.
