Hello again, my creative photographers! ๐ŸŽ…

โ€

Candy here, and welcome to Day 8 of our 12 Days of Christmas countdown. Weโ€™ve highlighted features for events, sales, action photography, and sports-focused workflows.

โ€

Today, letโ€™s celebrate a 2024 addition that brought artistry and personalization to your images: Full Frame Overlays & Custom Backgrounds.

โ€

โ€

Key Highlights:

โ€

  • Full Frame Overlays & Text Titles:
    โ€

    Wrap entire images with themed framesโ€”like a party pics overlay, a jungle design, or any style you chooseโ€”and add text titles right on the images. Itโ€™s a quick way to give your clients something more unique and memorable.
    โ€
  • Custom Backgrounds & Pre-Rendering:
    โ€

    Photographers can upload up to four custom backgrounds. These backgrounds will pre-render in the image gallery, so clients can instantly see how their images look against these new scenes. From festive holiday themes to brand-aligned designs, you can set the mood perfectly.
    โ€
  • Import From Previous Events:
    โ€

    Have a favorite overlay or background setup from a past event? Simply import it for a new event, maintaining consistency and saving setup time.

โ€

These visual customizations not only enhanced the aesthetic appeal of your galleries but could also help boost sales by encouraging clients to purchase more prints and downloads that feel like true mementos. ๐ŸŽ‰

โ€

Check back tomorrow for Day 9, as we continue counting down the best of 2024. And donโ€™t forget, something special awaits on December 25th!

Hello again, energetic photographers! ๐ŸŽ…

โ€

Candy here, and welcome to Day 6 of our 12 Days of Christmas countdown.

โ€

Over the past five days, weโ€™ve looked back at various 2024 upgrades, and todayโ€™s topic is all about action-packed events. Letโ€™s highlight the Action Photography Features that truly elevated your sports and high-energy shoots this year.

โ€

Key Highlights:

โ€

  • Dynamic Galleries:
    โ€

    End customers can add images to their personal gallery on the fly. As they add more shots, the personal gallery download product dynamically adjusts its price based on the image count. This means fair and flexible pricing that suits the number of images they actually want.

โ€

โ€
โ€

  • View Photos in Sequence (SportsPics):
    โ€

    We introduced a handy "view photos in sequence" button. Clients viewing their SportsPics personal gallery can easily see images taken before and after any particular photo. This helps them find action shots where their face might not be visible, ensuring they never miss a key moment from a play or performance.

โ€

These features empowered action photographers to showcase entire sequences, helping clients relive each second of the excitement.

โ€

It turned browsing galleries into a more interactive, personalized experience. ๐ŸŽ‰

Check back tomorrow for Day 7, as we continue our festive journey through the yearโ€™s top improvements.

Whatโ€™s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
