Header Logo - The header logo is located at the top of every page on your booth. This custom logo can be any logo or combination of logos to use for booth mode. We suggest this logo to be a solid color and to blend well with your chosen background color/image. By default this is a Photoboxx logo.
Recommended Format: 400px x 118px, PNGText Color - This color changes the main text and button background colors of your booth.
Heading & Subheading - Customize the heading and sub heading on the start page. Keep is short and simple to describe your event and call users to action.
Background Image - The booth mode background image will display as the background on every page of your booth. You can upload almost any type of image and then use the opacity slider to let the background color create an overlay on top of the image. It's helpful to keep in mind usability on all screen sizes.

Advanced Booth Settings
Photo Library Upload - Show or hide the button that allows users to choose to upload an image from their photo library. If you are concerned about unrelated event photos or spam, hide this button. It will not allow users to upload images from their photo library which will help ensure all photos are relevant to the event.
Participant Photo Limit - To help moderate and limit spam, you can set a limit on the number of photos that a particular user can upload. A user is identified by session, so they can always change browsers or devices to get around this limit, but it is a helpful line of defense nonetheless. By default this is set to unlimited.
