Creating an ad

Go to Advertising in the portal and start a new ad. The builder shows a live preview that updates as you work, so you can see the result before saving.

Choosing an image

Either upload a new image, or pick one from your community gallery using the thumbnail strip. Reusing a gallery image is the quickest route and keeps your look consistent.

Text and styling

You control the headline and body copy, their sizes, the font colour, and an overlay colour and opacity sitting between the image and the text.

Getting it readable

Most ads fail on contrast rather than content. If the text is hard to read against the photo, increase the overlay opacity. Keep the headline to a handful of words — small placements do not give long headlines room to breathe.
