I really like how people make their banners and overlays. You are right that it does cost some money, which sucks. I really appreciate this video as I am trying to figure out which site would be better to use. This was easy to follow. Thank you. :)

[@AttackBrena]

You made this so easy to understand! Thank you so much for posting this!

[@Redwillow34]

This is super helpful! I love using Canva for other things and didnt realize i could attempt to make my own overlay. I'll have to try it out!

[@MsFeisty13]

Thank you so much! This was very helpful! I am doing a "Starchild wanderer" type theme and I intend to stream OW, Palia, maybe sims and def Cities Skylines. I love the neon effect and it looks beautiful on my free canva background I found that works perfect for me. TYSM AGAIN

[@chrisyroche7633]

This was very informative! Thank you

[@TerrestrialTTV]

So happy it could help!! 💜✨

[@marsramlogs667]

THANK YOU!!! My question is -- how do you upload your overlays to streamlabs,twitch studio, obs, etc???

[@everestbrayer9477]

you have to save it to a file and then make it like a png thing i think

[@calitenko3136]

I use stream labs - I downloaded mine as MP4 Video and saved it to my desktop, then opened stream labs > add source > Media file > add new source instead > browse local file and find mp4 video in desktop > click loop (that's optional, my "starting soon" video was only 30 seconds so i looped it) and you're done! You can also adjust other setting such as the speed, colour range etc. I hope this helps because I was also searching the comment section and couldn't find anything so thought I'd try to figure it out on my own and it was pretty easy!

[@cyberfae]

omg thank you!!!

[@isasilva6165]

i dont understand english very well, but the youtube translate for me, thank you so much! nice work

[@BIGLOS___]

Quick Question! I use streamElements do I add these to the stream elements overlays or just add these straight into OBS?

[@mommaofaprincess]

How do you save it? Mine wants me to save it as an MP4 video... is that right?

[@MTKKNITS]

How did you get to the top bar over lay I was lost on that part ,

[@lifestartsnow13]

Hi I know this is so random but what is the video with the purple sky next to the one you choice in this? I have been looking for something like that for FOREVER

[@TerrestrialTTV]

Hi! looks like it's called "Animated paper backgrounds fairy tale sleeping background 4k. Cartoon nature. stock video" 😂 quite a title, I know 😂

[@tokyoeffect9719]

Hi! Uhm.. what do you do if you don’t have a the pro video thing in canva..?

[@crazydiva4131]

how do i put them into twitch?

[@Ajaygirl35]

whats the name of the wall paper called??

[@XenaWarrior95]

How do u get the purple small box? I only have the free version and I can’t get my box that long and narrow in the pixel u did? Mine look like the first page u did with the starting soon.

[@qadira7576]

you press the three lines at the top left and hit "Create new design" (:

[@youngproverbs]

What do you stream

[@rosebaeby5201]

How do you upload it to twitch

[@PrettiNReckless]

So my question is, how do you put this into SLOBS or OBS?

[@furfrugurl5215]

I think you would download the file and then transport it to obs as a download

[@samanthagarner2926]

What format should you export your overlays to add to streamlabs?

[@flamesashi8819]

I came here for tips but good lord she's beautiful 💀

[@krystiem2251]

Please tell us the dimensions of top bar and the game/chat overlay

[@becca-arzugulden1754]

So I’ve been playing around with the dimensions a bit and found that 1920x80 give you a good starting point but you can edit it to a 100-400 for something bigger.

[@MyPurrrgatory]

Take a shot everytime she says cute lol

[@CaptainDj100]

you look like nacy from stranger things

[@Saliorviper]

Now am I saving it before I start my new project
