Canvas
|
Introduction
Canvas is inZOI's official content-sharing platform, allowing players to upload and share their own character (Zoi) and building creations, as well as explore and download what other players have made. Canvas is accessible both in-game and via a web browser, providing a convenient way to enjoy the creativity of the inZOI community from anywhere.
For example, when you create Zois and build houses in inZOI, you can upload them to Canvas to share your creations with other players. You can also download uploaded characters and houses to use in your gameplay.
Overview
- Content-Sharing Platform: Players can create unique Zoi appearances or buildings and share them on Canvas. Others can then like, download, and comment on these creations.
- Follows & Likes: You can follow your favorite creators to stay informed whenever they upload new content, and liking a creation saves it for quick access later.
- Ranks & Recognition: As creators gain likes and followers, they progress through ranks: Newbie → Silver → Gold → Diamond. Higher ranks unlock additional features and privileges.
Accessing Canvas
In-Game Access
Look for the Canvas icon (often in the top-right corner of the screen) in modes like Create-a-Zoi, Play Mode, Build Mode, and the City Editor. Simply click the icon to open Canvas at any time.
Outside the Game
You can access Canvas through the Canvas website on PC or smartphone. This makes it easy to check out new creations and monitor your own content even when you’re not actively playing inZOI.
Uploading Your Creations
Create & Save
Character Customize (Create-a-Zoi): Design the appearance or outfit of your Zoi and save it.
Building Mode: Build and save your architectural designs.
Upload to Canvas
While in Create-a-Zoi or Building Mode, look for the “Upload to Canvas” button (generally found in the top-right corner). You’ll need to add a title, description, and optional tags or contributors.
Thumbnails/Photos
You can only use Photo Mode images as thumbnails. In Photo Mode, you can adjust angles, filters, and poses for the perfect shot. You can upload up to four images when sharing a creation.
Once everything is set, click “Upload to Canvas” again to finalize your post. Your creation will become publicly visible for others to like and download.
