Designs & the studio
What are themed intros and effects?
By Nimanto 1 min read
In short
Every published premium Signature design offers its opening as a themed intro and its falling art as a themed effect to hosts of that occasion. They come first in the pickers, cost nothing on a premium design and are paid once on a free one unless your plan includes them.
A premium design's opening is painted for it: its artwork at the screen's edges, its character in the middle where it has one, its colours and type, and then the scenery parts. Themed intros let you use that opening on another design of the same occasion.
What is offered
- Themed intros: the opening of every published premium Signature design of your occasion, named after the design. A wedding's opening is never offered on a birthday.
- Themed effects: the falling art of a premium design that has one, such as a marigold or a leaf drifting over the pages, under the design's name.
Both come first in the pickers: your own sub-occasion's designs first, then the rest of the occasion, then the standard envelopes and effects. In the mobile app the intro picker adds a Themed filter beside All, Free and Premium.
A design that already opens on a full-frame painted curtain, or that has an opening made by hand for it, is not offered as a themed intro; the curtain itself is in the standard list.
Pick one
- 1Open the invitation from your dashboard, then under Your invitation choose Invitation studio.
- 2Open the Envelope panel for intros or the Effects panel for effects.
- 3Choose the themed one you like, then Finish.
What it costs
- On a premium design, every themed intro and effect shows Included.
- On a free design, a themed intro or effect is paid once for that invitation at your next publish, unless your plan includes it. See Pricing.
