Design Guidelines & Quality Control
Text Box Requirements
Critical: Empty Text Areas
Our system records exact width and height coordinates to dynamically inject text. These areas must remain completely empty.
- β’ Use subtle rounded rectangles or bordered boxes
- β’ Simple background (single color or soft gradient)
- β’ Allow generous padding for text injection
- β’ Ensure high contrast for text readability
Design Best Practices
- Maintain visual hierarchy with proper sizing
- Use primary brand colors prominently
- Ensure logo is clearly visible and properly sized
- Member photo should be cleanly cut-out & integrated
- Avoid "template" sameness - be creative with layouts
