Overview<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. Registration<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3. Creating Your First Template<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4. How to Make Edits in the Template<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5. Generate Your First Image Variation<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">6. How to track consumed credits<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">7. Next Steps<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">1. Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On this page, you will learn how to create an account in DynaPictures, create your first image&nbsp;template, and generate its image variations. No technical skills are required in this tutorial. Have a look at&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/dynapictures.com\/blog\/how-to-generate-banners-for-tweets-using-dynapictures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">how we built a Twitter demo<\/a>&nbsp;if you are interested in REST API integration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">2. Registration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You need to create an account, in order to access DynaPictures. Click on the &#8220;Sign Up&#8221; link in the header or the &#8220;Try for Free&#8221; button on the landing page. You will be taken to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dynapictures.com\/b\/p\/register\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/dynapictures.com\/b\/p\/register\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">registration page<\/a>\u00a0where you can use your email or social media account to register.\u00a0Upon completing the registration you will receive an email with a link to confirm your email address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">3.&nbsp;Creating Your First Template<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The concept of image templates is a fundamental part of DynaPictures. At first glance, it appears to be a regular image, a visual that could be also created with Canva-like tools. However, we call it an image template, because each layer in this image is programmable and can be dynamically changed later when generating&nbsp;image variations based on this template. This not only enables&nbsp;time savings on&nbsp;repetitive design work but also creates new possibilities for services and products in the design automation space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once registered, you will be taken to&nbsp;the &#8220;Image Templates&#8221; page. You can always open this page by clicking on &#8220;Image Templates&#8221; on the left.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can create a template by clicking on the preview image in the &#8220;Use a Library Template&#8221; section, or by clicking on the &#8220;New Image Template&#8221; button.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":817,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_stopmodifiedupdate":false,"_modified_date":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-62","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-image-generation","generate-columns","tablet-grid-50","mobile-grid-100","grid-parent","grid-33"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Introduction to Design Automation with DynaPictures - DynaPictures Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Want to start creating images in bulk automatically?
