URL parameters

Today's special on your website, from one image URL

The dish of the day changes every morning, but the place that shows it on your website should not need editing. In DynaPictures your special becomes an image URL whose dish, description and price are named parameters, so the page shows the new special as soon as the values change.

  • Dish, description and price as parameters
  • One image tag on your website
  • The same design as your posts
An image URL with custom parameters and the personalized image it returns

How to post a daily special

1.

Write today's dish

The first dish of the first section becomes the star: its name, a short description and the price. Add a few more dishes below under a heading such as Also today.

2.

Add a photo of the plate

Upload a photo and it fills the top of the post, with the price in a round tag on its corner. Without a photo the name of the dish is set larger.

3.

Post it or put it in the window

Download the 1080x1350 post or the 1080x1920 story for Instagram, or switch to A4 or Letter for a PDF to print. The file stays available for 24 hours.

Why post your specials with this tool

Today's date, filled in

The board starts with today's weekday and date in your language, so a daily post takes a minute: change the dish, the price and the photo.

Built around one dish

The dish of the day gets the space, in large type with its photo and price tag, and the other dishes of the day sit in a short list underneath.

Set lunches too

Pick the chalkboard look for a two- or three-course lunch with one price: courses without prices are centred under their headings.

A story-safe layout

On a story the words stay clear of the bars Instagram lays over the top and the bottom of the screen.

Free, 20 boards a day

No login and no watermark. Each visitor can download 20 a day, reset at midnight UTC.

Posting a daily special that sells

A daily special works when it is easy to decide on: one dish, one price, a good photo and the hours it is served. Post it before guests plan their lunch, late morning is common, and use the same look every day so regulars recognise it in their feed. Name the dish the way your waiters say it, keep the description to the two or three ingredients that make it, and say when it is gone. The same design can go in the window: print the A4 PDF and swap it when the dish changes.

Free limits
