Modifying assets:

The customizable Indies First image can modified using the online tool Canva [1]. To begin, download the asset to your desktop and then create a free Canva account. Next:

• Select the “Social Media” tab on the homepage, then select “Instagram Post.”
• From the left-hand column, click on “Uploads” and click on the purple “Upload media” button. Select “Device” and upload the file from your desktop.
• When the image populates under “Images,” click on it and it will appear on the blank canvas to the right.
• Additional elements (photos, text, etc.) can be added by using the toolbar on the left. For example, select “Text” to add a sentence about an event you’re hosting. You can choose from a variety of styled fonts, or simply select “Add a heading” to drop a text box onto the canvas. Text boxes can be resized and moved as needed.
• When finished, click “Download” in the upper right corner.
