    Thank you. This is the first video I have seen on Canva. Can you tell me if I use the Free and then switch to Pro, if it will save all of my first/free projects? Also, you mentioned re-sizing--If I create an image, lets say for a t-shirt, can I export and resize to fit the shirt accordingly? Thank you

    • @NataliaKalinska
      @NataliaKalinska  Місяць тому

      You’re very welcome Cassy. When you make a switch from the free to the Pro version, you keep all of your projects. It’s the same account, it’s just a different plan. When it comes to resizing, it’s always best to start with your intended dimensions in Canva. It makes things much easier and you keep the quality. After exporting, it may not be as efficient to resize your design. You’d be able to make it smaller but if you enlarge it, you’ll most likely compromise some of the quality. I hope it helps! Thank you so much for watching 😊

    If I already have a personal account and get added on to a team to use their pro account/share designs, etc will they have access to my personal designs or will this be private unless I choose to share them? Also, will anything i design in that team account be viewed by anyone on the team? Thanks!

    • @NataliaKalinska
      @NataliaKalinska  11 місяців тому +1

      As long as you create designs within your own account, they won’t see yours. If you design within the teams workspace, they may have access to them.

    Why have my project names, including the oldest ones, disappeared from the top of the screen? I have to rename the project AFTER I save it, presumably with "no name". I use the edit symbol on the listed project. Does anyone else have this issue? Every design comes up blank at the top right where the name of the design or "unnamed design" used to appear.

    • @NataliaKalinska
      @NataliaKalinska  10 місяців тому +1

      That’s very strange! It’s still very much visible for me both on the desktop app and on the browser version. Might be worthwhile reaching out to the Canva support team, they are very helpful!

    please any videos you can make on that or any videos u have you can link to let me learn and how can i source for content ideas??? Please reply sorry for the long questions thanks❤

    • @NataliaKalinska
      @NataliaKalinska  11 місяців тому

      Thank you so much for your lovely comment Halima! 🙏 Creating good content is about two things - understanding your audience and practicing consistently. When you begin designing graphics (or start working on any other skill for that matter!), there will be a disconnect between what you create and what you think looks really great. The key to getting better over time is practicing all the time and analyzing what makes good designs good.
      The way I started getting intentionally better with design is by trying to recreate graphics I loved and applying my own unique twists to them - without publishing them anywhere of course! What it taught me was to recognize balance, hierarchies, color and font combinations, consistency and so much more. Over time, that knowledge and practice started translating into my own designs. My creative muscle was built up enough that I could design from scratch, using just my imagination and experience. I'm not there yet, it's a journey with no destination, but that's what getting better is all about.
      I would start by looking at Instagram profiles you like, other social media platforms, finding inspiration on Pinterest and Behance and just practicing daily. With time, the original content you produce will get better and better.
      I have a whole Canva playlist with various tutorials which can be helpful to you: ua-cam.com/play/PLr0AH9BnVNJMg_BPSiqKxpamzx2lJ6KUg.html
      Apart from the playlist, I've got a video helping you get endless content ideas for any niche: ua-cam.com/video/iOToM05hVps/v-deo.html
      I hope this helps and good luck on your content journey! 🍀🤞

      Love to hear it - straight to action! ❤️ Let me know how the practice goes for you and again, I wish you all the best ✨
      Well, that’s a service that can be useful to a wide variety of people. Business owners and content creators obviously come to mind first, but you need to figure out your own niche yourself. Ask yourself a few questions. If you’ve already had clients, who did you enjoy working with the most? If not, what type of a client would you like to work with? If you have experience in a particular field, this may be your unique selling point since you’ll be able to write more informed texts. Same goes for your interests - if you yourself are drawn to something in particular, it may be easier for you to jump into that niche and serve people within that community.
      That’s a super broad subject of course so it’s not easy to just explain it in a comment, but these are some of the questions you can start with 🙏🏻

    I keep asking this in every Canva tutorial I view and no one replies. I am creating 5 x7 note pad. I put two on a letter size sheet set to 11 x 8.5 inches. However when I print them they never come out to a 5 x 7 and I have to keep resizing them on test paper until I get the correct diminsions. This happens with other sized produces I make as well. I have wasted so much paper and ink and cannot get my business up and running due to this time consuming problem. Also I have typed in templates 5 x 7 and when I print it out to see what it will look like it prints out to 8.5 x 11 letter size document. What can I do

    At minute 8:20 you don't need "Adobe Illustrator" to make your own designs. There are many software companies that have all the file formats that can be compatible with Canva. Corel Draw has a huge amount of file formats, and its likely at least one or two file formats can be transferred to Canva.
