Greetings, bloglings!
It's Friday and I've got more freebies for you! Because Photobucket changed their third party hosting rules, I needed a crash course in designing my TPT store quote box banner. After sprucing that up, I decided to update my store logo, as well! Here are free templates and tutorials for both:
Directions:
1. Download the template at the link above.
2. Design the banner on the third slide as desired. The existing background color will look transparent on your storefront. The slide is completely editable, though.
3. Save the third slide as a jpeg (select all on the slide, right click,
click 'Save Picture As,' and save it as a jpeg image).
4. There are a few different ways to do this, but I use Pinterest to save the image as a pin to a private board. This allows you to get an image URL for the code you will use in step 7.
5. Right click on your pin, and click 'Copy Link Address.'
6. Visit Bitly. Paste the link address that you just copied into the provided box, and then you have your shortened URL for the HTML code. Keep this page/tab open.
7. On TPT, go to 'My Account,' select 'Store Profile,' and click 'Edit.' Paste the following code into your Quote Box:
<a
href="PASTE LINK
HERE"><img src="PASTE
TINY URL TO YOUR IMAGE HERE"></a>
*If you are reading this on mobile and the full code does not appear for you, it is also included in the template download!
8. Paste the tiny URL from Bitly, and then add any link where you would like store visitors to go once they have clicked on your banner. This might be to a product page or your blog.
9. Save your edit, and check out your store; the banner you created should appear in your quote box!
Directions:
1. Download the TPT logo template at the link above.
2. Use the template on slide 3 to design your logo. If you want to use a photo background, right click on the circle and select "Format Shape," select "Picture Fill" and upload your desired photo. Only what is inside of the circle will appear on your TPT logo.
3. Save the slide as a jpeg.
4. On your TPT store, go to 'My Account' and click on the 'Store Profile' tab.
5. Click 'Edit.'
6. Upload your logo by clicking on 'Replace Photo.' You may want to trim the edges a bit so that the black line does or does not show, depending on your preference.
7. Once uploaded, the logo should be updated on your storefront!
I hope these instructions were clear. Let me know if you have any questions!
Happy Friday!
