1. In your event management dashboard,
choose the main tab labeled “Event Tools” on the left-hand side.
Click Go under the "Swell Slides (App)"
2. Adding your own presentation "slides"
Add your own slides under the subtab "slides."
*The recommended slide size is: 1980 x 1020 pixels
- Select to "auto play during show" to have this slide in the loop
*AKA you want this slide mixing in with your social media and fundraising
**You would not want to select "autoplay" if this is a slide for a specific time/presentation - Determine what all you want to be displayed during this specific slide:
The total amount raised will ALWAYS be in the upper left-hand corner. The Hashtag will always stack underneath that, also in the upper left-hand corner.
- Total Amount Raised
- Hashtag
*Use your own judgment for this. If you have text in the upper left-hand corner, you will want these OFF.
- Total Amount Raised
- Select whether you want the slide to display in Full Screen
(recommended if the correct size) - No image file? Add a slide as "text." This will appear as a slide over your background(s)
3. Adding your own backgrounds (optional)
Upload your own backgrounds under the subtab “backgrounds"
if you want photographs as your background to social posts, leaderboards, etc.
*The recommended size is 1080 x 1920 pixels
- To add your own, select the plus button and choose from your device.
- Select “view/import default backgrounds” to browse and add any stock backgrounds
- If you DO NOT add any background images, the slideshow will default to a black background with white text OR whatever branding colors you choose
4. CUSTOMIZE
Under the subtab “settings,” customize your presentation
- Select a length of time for each slide/post to show
*This will determine the time for everything (leaderboards, social posts, slides, etc.)
**Recommended: 8-12 seconds - If applicable, select a background blur for your photograph backgrounds. By blurring photographs, the text becomes easier to read (recommended: ~10-15%).
- Change the font size if needed for your presentations but “medium” is recommended
- Change the text color
Dark backgrounds: white text // Light backgrounds: black text - Change the background color
*This color will only show IF no backgrounds are added - If applicable, select how often you want your leaderboards to show
(fundraising, social, team and table) - Select whether or not you want the "Total Amount Raised" and Hashtag displayed (on social media, leaderboards, and sponsor slides. All custom slides are edited separately).
