Facer.io 4.3.0 is now live (curate your own collections!)

Note that a banner isn’t required for collections. If you don’t provide one, we create one automatically. That said, when reviewing collections for featuring, it’s true that we will always prioritize the ones that have a banner, and a well designed one!

Regarding the limit in number of collections, there isn’t any as of today. Go nuts! :wink:

Hey, I’m lovin’ it! Regardless of whether mine is interpreted as well designed or not I’m just having tons of fun.

Just started… and it made me realize the information I have on my profile is outdated! :smiley:

Thanks for the feature!

EDIT: I just figured out how to shuffle from a collection! Nice! I’ve added so many favorites that the regular shuffle is cumbersome and I’ll never see half of them :smiley:

On my Profile I can see only 20 of my designs. The rest never download.
However, I can see everything in Creator. Is there a way to send to collections from Creator?

What browser are you using? I’m seeing all your faces on your profile. They should load as you scroll down.

I use Chrome and it is very slow to load more. With 200+ designs it gets to be a pain. I also wish we could add from the creator main page.

Do the banners need to be png/jpeg? Or can I do an animated gif?

I’ve been working on this. I usually use Edge because it seems to do better on Creator. However the best I can load is 40 on Edge and 116 on Pale Moon.

Edit: Ugh. It took over 2 hours, but I finally got Pale Moon to load all faces down to my very first design. Edge never moved past those 40.

There are some duplicates in Favorites because I’ve put them in other collections. If I delete those from Favorites (or delete from any collection), will that delete the face everywhere?

There’s only 3 faces in this collection but I already had the promotional artwork done for it so why not.


*Fun fact, I took that picture of big ben/parliament myself.

Yes!!! So good! Can’t wait to get into this when I’m back from my business trip :smiley: Thanks! So keen :slight_smile:

Can there be an option to add draft watch faces to custom collections?

Not sure if we’re still sharing here but here’s the next collection

Can you add an option to reorder your collections including favorites? Right now they appear to be in the order in which I made them. I’d prefer to have my favorites at the bottom of my collection list rather than the top. You have to click the show more button before you even see any of them on the mobile browser and the favorites banner isn’t as pretty. Also is being able to see designers collections from their profile coming to the app? @Facer_Official

My banners/covers are finished for now, but I’m sure I’ll be upgrading as I make better faces. Yes! Yes! I’d love the ability to add from Creator as we publish, as well as a way to order the collections - or a way to change the default cover for Favorites.

@Facer_Official What currently determines in what order our collections show on our profiles?
Yesterday, Favorites and Vintage were at the top of mine. Today on mine, I’m seeing my Favorites, Halloween and Winter with the button for the dropdown to others. It really would be nice to be able to place these as we want them, as Halloween is a long way off.

This is a huge step in the right direction. It shows your favorites which is nice. However I really wish it also showed a purchased section like in the app so that I could also browse my purchases and add them to other collections. The day this feature went live I had to use the app and add most of my purchased designs to my favorites so that I could then add them to other collections. And for some reason, probably becuase of the large amount of purchases and favorites when I veiw an individual face when I ht back in the app it won’t load any of the favorites, recent, or purchased until I first go to the featured start page. So the process was painstaking.

At what point are we no longer able to add to our collections? Is this a bug in the latest version of Facer?

@Linlay there is no limit to the number of faces you can add to a collection, although we do recommend you keep them at a reasonable size so they are more easily browsable.

The fact that you were not able to add faces to collections since Thursday/Friday last week is a bug which will be fixed today.

Thank you. What is a reasonable size? 10? 25? I have no idea so I’ve been trying to delete, but that’s not fun because with the holidays coming up I have ideas for new ones.

10 or 25 is definitely good. You could go higher than that, but the bigger they are the less likely anybody will scroll down to see their full content.

Thanks, I’ll keep that in mind.
