Creating the Header for Your Event on Snipesocial
This guide will help you set up the header for your event on Snipesocial. The header is the central visual element that represents your event and ensures it stands out.
What Makes the Event Header Unique?
Unlike profiles, pages, and groups on Snipesocial, events don’t have profile images. Instead, the header serves as the primary visual focus for your event. This simplifies your event’s design and ensures a single impactful image grabs attention.
Why is the Header Important?
- First Impressions Matter: The header is the first thing viewers notice, making it critical for engagement.
- Brand Identity: It represents your event visually, reinforcing your brand or theme.
- Professional Appeal: A polished header makes your event feel credible and well-organized.
Steps to Customize Your Event Header
Step 1: Access Your Event
If you’re not already on the event, navigate to it from your homepage:
- Log in to Snipesocial.
- Click the Events Tab in your dashboard.
- Select the specific event you want to customize.
If you’re already on the event, skip to Step 2.
Step 2: Open the Header Customization Tool
- At the top of your event, hover over the header area.
- A camera icon will appear. Click on it to open the customization options.
Step 3: Add a Header Image
You can add a header image using one of the following methods:
- Upload a New Image
- Click Upload Photo.
- Browse your device for an appropriate image file (recommended dimensions: 1200px by 400px).
- Select from Existing Photos
- Choose an image you’ve previously uploaded to your Snipesocial gallery.
Step 4: Adjust the Header Position
- Once the image is uploaded, use the drag-to-reposition tool to position the header perfectly.

- When you’re happy with the positioning, click Save Changes.
Pro Tips for Designing Your Event Header
