Add your logo and colors to the gallery and sharing station

Written by PixoShare Support

Brand the iPad sharing station on each event's Branding step, and your galleries with a template and your company logo. You set the two separately.

Brand the sharing station (Pro)

Open the event, click Edit, and go to the Branding step. Under Sharing View:

  • Station Logo sits in the station's top bar, next to the event name. It shows small, so a simple, wide logo reads best.

  • Background Image fills the screen behind the photos.

The Branding step, with the Station Logo and Background Image upload boxes marked
  • Color Scheme has nine colors. The preview updates as you go.

Use PNG or JPG files: up to 2 MB for the logo and 5 MB for the background. SVG files don't work.

On Starter, these controls are grayed out and stations show the PixoShare look. Branding you set up during your trial is kept, and comes back as soon as you're on Pro.

Add an attract screen

The attract screen plays when nobody has touched the station for a minute. One tap brings back the photos.

  1. On the Branding step, switch to Standby View.

  2. Turn on Enable Attract Screen.

  3. Click Choose Media. Pick one from the library, or upload your own image (up to 5 MB) or MP4 video (up to 50 MB and 60 seconds).

Use a landscape file, because the station runs in landscape. Put any words into the image or video itself: the station draws nothing on top of it.

Brand your galleries

Pick a look. Galleries use a template, not your station colors. On the Templates page, the Microsite tab is for your guest photo pages and the Live Gallery, and the Client Gallery tab is for the gallery you send your client. Every plan can use the ready-made looks. Designing your own (Customize) is Pro.

On the Client Gallery tab, click Set as Default on a look. New events start with it, and events that follow your default change with it, including galleries you've already sent. On the Microsite tab, pick a ready-made look for each event on its Templates step.

The Templates page, Client Gallery tab: a look's menu open, with Set as Default marked

Add your company logo (Pro). Open Gallery Hub in the sidebar. Under Branding, upload your Logo (PNG or JPEG, up to 10 MB) and set your Brand color. Your logo shows at the top of your Gallery Hub and on the cover of the ready-made looks. Without one, they show your company name.

Set your cover photo in the Cover Photo card on the event's Sharing tab.

Emails and texts

  • Emails go out under the From Name you set on the event's Sharing step. It starts as your company name. For your own logo and design in emails, create an email template on the Templates page (Pro).

  • Texts come from PixoShare and don't include your company name or logo.

I changed the branding, but the iPad still shows the old look

The station loads the branding when the event starts, so make changes before guests arrive. To pick them up:

  • PixoShare PC: on the PC, click Stop event, then start the event again. Then connect the iPad to the PC again.

  • PixoShare Cloud: leave the station (triple-tap the top-left corner) and open the event again.

Good to know

  • Logo and name are optional. If you leave the logo out, the station shows none. There's no PixoShare badge in its place.

  • Reuse your branding: each event has its own station branding, and a new event starts on the PixoShare look. Open an event you've already branded and click Duplicate: the copy keeps its logo, colors and attract screen.

  • "Powered by PixoShare": you can turn it off on your Gallery Hub (Pro). Open Gallery Hub and switch off Powered by PixoShare. It stays on the default guest emails.
