I was recently asked by one of my followers if I could share some tips on designing and publishing models so here are my top ten tips: 1: My first tip is just to design models. It doesn't matter what software you use or if it looks like trash just design models, practice makes perfect.2: Don't sweat about equipment. All you really need is a pc, the camera on your phone, and a printer.3: Once you have made a few models, experiment with different trends and model types. The Creator Center is a great place to find inspiration and learn what's trending.4: Once you find a topic/trend of model you like or is popular, make models that fit within that theme. It's fine if you make models that differ from that theme, Make sure to have fun.5: Tags. I cannot stress their importance enough, with the right tags your model will get TONS of views. When putting in tags make sure to put lots that fit your model or the theme.6: Pictures. Make sure you have Real photos of the final product. Only put Real print photos of your model as the thumbnail. I see lots of models where it's just screenshots of the model in Bambu Studio, or Tinkercad, Or Orca Slicer you get the idea. Make sure your photos are taken in good light without much in the background to distract from the model. Good lighting is critical.7: Editing. I use editing software like ClipChamp and Designer to crop my pictures and add text to them.8: Ignore mean people. This is the internet. There Will  be haters, like it or not we're stuck with them. Just remember all the good. For instance: that guy who left a good review, or that time you got a Boost, or that really encouraging comment.9: Don't forget to go outside and touch grass every once in a while. Mental health is important.10: Remember that there is a God who loves you and cares for you. It doesn't matter what people think of your models, it doesn't matter whether you're getting points or not, God loves you just as you are.Shout-out to @PrintRevs5Star for suggesting I make this article! they're just getting into making models so take a look at their models!

On the previous article I wrote I mentioned that making good thumbnails was important but didn't really go into detail. This article is going to fix that. Anyway lets get to the tips.The first step is to take at least two photos of you model, One 3:4 for Phone users and one 4:3 for PC users. Then Right click on the image you want to make into your thumbnail then select “Create With Designer” Which should take you to this screen:This is going to be your base of operations for thumbnail making. the main tools you'll be using being the Text tool and the Crop tool.               Click on the text tool and select a font. In this case I chose one called “Modern Love”  Then I'll add more text and change the color to grab attention.  And that's pretty much it! Just repeat that for the other thumbnail and you're done!
