Set up an Image Carousel

Easily customize and launch an image carousel on your Explore page

 

NFT.Kred allows you to customize an image carousel on your Explore or Marketplace page to direct your fans to other pages or websites using custom graphics, text, and CTA buttons.

There are 3 main design options that you can use to customize your carousel:

  1. Carousel Style: Fitted Tiles or Wide Tiles
    1. Fitted Tiles: recommended dimensions 500px by 250px
      Images will be displayed at a 2:1 aspect ratio.
    2. Wide Tiles: recommended dimensions 1000px by 250px
      Images will be displayed at a 4:1 aspect ratio. 
  2. Enable Gradient: choose whether or not to show a dark gradient coming up from the bottom of the carousel image. Helps display light-colored text on light-colored images.
    1. Gradient off (left). Gradient on (right).
  3. Enable Simple CTA: if enabled, a simple button with your CTA Header text will be displayed on the bottom right of your carousel images. If disabled, a more advanced CTA will be displayed with your CTA Header text as well as your CTA body text. 
    1. Simple CTA off (left). Simple CTA on (right).
  4. Override Branding Colors: if enabled, you can choose custom colors for your Simple CTA button and CTA text. If disabled, the carousel will use colors pulled from your marketplace design in the Branding settings section.
