Layouting

Postby jyreegozo » Tue Nov 14, 2017 10:00 am

Hi!

I've installed wifibooth and truly it works awesome. However, I'm having trouble with layouting. It seems to be in default mode that I couldn't get the right design i.e. Borders and picture sizes. Also, the logo doesn't really fit well no matter how I adjust it. I followed the instructions having it 4x6 but it's still so small. I'm having an event in weeks time and I really need help thanks!

Hi, can you please describe what kind of layout you are trying to achieve:
1) are you printing these out? If so, what paper size?
2) can you show the logo? ie. upload it to imgur and post a link

That's a great photo of at least 10 different layouts, many of which are possible with wifibooth.
Which one do you want to try?

Any of the 4x6 photos would do. I really don't know how I could get wifibooth to do such. Please help. Thank you sooo much

OK. Easiest is the one that's one up from the bottom right: Manny & Jess.
1. Make a logo on a computer, or pay a designer to do this (they are worth the money) - this one says "Manny and Jess" and has a bunch more info under it. You need to save this as a photo - I recommend PNG but JPG would do.
2. Get the logo photo on the iPad. You can airdrop it over, or email it, or use Google photos or iMessage or whatever you like.
3. Open up Wifibooth, create a new event, ie "Manny and Jess"
4. Open event settings, go to Branding, at the top choose the logo as the logo photo
5. Change the logo position to "in collage"
6. On the collages settings page, change the borders to suit. In your example here, the outer border is larger than the inner borders, so try just increasing the outer borders slider to double its default

That's it!

If you want to enforce that always exactly 3 photos are in the collage, then do this step too:
- go to event settings, taking photos, and turn on Autopilot to "Collages"
- in event settings -> taking photos, make sure number of photos taken is set to 3

Thank you so much! How about the layout on the bottom right:farah & jason. The logo would always be very small.. What size is recommended?

For the bottom-right one, make the logo position "At top", the logo size maximum (50%), and set the number of photos taken to be 2.
The logo in that one is the whole Farah and Jason thing at the top.
