Designing your site

Your public site is yours to shape. The design studio lets you pick from curated layouts for each part of your site and see the result before you publish it.

The design studio

Open Design in the studio. On the left is a controls panel; on the right is a live preview that reflows as you change options. A device toggle switches the preview between desktop and mobile widths, and a Preview button opens the real composed site with your own photos.

When you are happy, Save applies your choices to your public site.

Header layouts

The header is the profile band at the top of your home, stories, and gallery pages. Choose between a standard layout (avatar and name on the left, navigation on the right) and a centered layout (a stacked, centered band).

Gallery layouts

Pick how your photo grid is arranged:

• Grid — even, square thumbnails.
• Masonry — a staggered grid that keeps each photo's proportions.
• Spotlight — a square grid that drops to one large photo per row on phones.

Stories layouts

Choose how your published stories are listed — for example as a grid of cards, a banner, or a featured arrangement that emphasizes your latest work.

The map

If you tag your photos with locations, you can turn on a map surface. Toggle it on in the design studio and pick a globe or flat style. See Maps and locations for the full walkthrough.

Preview before you commit

Nothing changes on your public site until you save. Use the inline preview and the full Preview modal to try layouts freely first.
