Mosaic Image: Click "Edit" to choose or upload a mosaic image. Learn more about choosing and creating your Mosaic Image here.
Specifications:

  • Required to be 16:9 (landscape) or 9:16 (portrait) aspect ratio

  • Recommended image sizes are: 1920px x 1080px (landscape) OR 1080px by 1920px (portrait)

Overlay: Choose "Text" or "Custom Overlay Image"
This layer is static. This layer will not be replaced when images come in to replace the cells. 

  • Text: You can choose a custom text (Usually is the #Hashtag or @Mention tag that you want users to use. You can also change the color.
