Prepare your J'y serai poster

Three simple rules so the photo area is detected automatically.

Your poster: the photo area in magenta #FF00FF

What the member sees: their photo takes the place of the magenta

Step 1/3

Pick the right format

Create your poster as usual: title, date, venue, parish, artwork.

Square

1080 × 1080 px

Facebook, Instagram

Portrait

1080 × 1350 px

Instagram

WhatsApp status

1080 × 1920 px

most shared

Step 2/3

Place the photo area in magenta

Where the member's photo should appear, add a shape filled with magenta #FF00FF.

Any shape works

Rectangle

Rounded

Circle

Arch

Free shape

Good to know

Text and elements placed on top of the magenta stay visible above the photo.

You can also leave the area transparent, if you export as a PNG with transparency.

Step 3/3

Export as PNG

Export your poster as a PNG, in the best quality possible, then upload it in the publishing wizard: the area is detected automatically.

Don't export as JPG: compression alters the magenta and the area may not be detected.

Common mistakes

Do

A solid, clean magenta shape

Avoid

Gradient, shadow or transparency on the shape

Avoid

Magenta elsewhere on the poster (text, artwork)

Avoid

An area that's too small (less than 10% of the poster)

Avoid

A sample photo in the area

Avoid

Exporting as JPG
