Click “Show photos” button to see all the photos uploaded to the Mission

Missions

Photos

Promoted photos

The photos tab is divided into 4 categories:

  • Promoted – displays all photos that were accepted to the Mission by the Foap Curation Team. The photos are organized by date. Promoted photos are all legally checked – the Foap Curation Team secures that the content is original and that all the legal issues are cleared. This means that all photos you see in the Promoted section are ready to be purchased.
  • Starred – displays starred photos
  • Purchased – displays purchased photos. Those images are ready to be downloaded and used commercially by your brand
  • Rewarded – displays rewarded photos

Filtering Photos

Foap Mission Management Panel allows you to filter your photos by:

  • Mission name – select one or many Mission names to filter your photos. Start typing the name of your mission in Search area to find it quickly. If you want to see all the Photos from all the Missions click on “Clear” button to remove the Mission filter.
  • Advanced filter – click Show Filters to filter photos by Orientation (Landscape, Portrait, Square) or Size (in terms of MegaPixels)

Filters

Search

All the photos in the Foap ecosystem have metadata such as titles and keywords. In order to find the content you are looking for, type queries in the search box.

Remember that the search goes only through the filtered results. Therefore if you select e.g. Mission filter and type a search query, you will receive the results that match that query, limited to the Mission you selected in the filter.

Photo options

If you hover the mouse over any photo you will see 4 icons that symbolize actions that can be applied to each photo.

  • Add to cart – adds the photo to the cart. This option is available only for the accounts with the full access.
  • Download preview – downloads a watermarked medium quality copy of the photo which you can use in your mockups and designs to test the asset before purchase.
  • Star photo – mark a photo with a star to mark your favorite content. You can then access all the starred photos in “Starred” tab.
  • Add to collection – use this option to create your own shareable collections of images

Downloading photos

Downloading photos from the Foap platform is super easy!

Go to Photos > Purchased tab. Here you’ll find all the photos licensed from Foap, which means you hold for them a perpetual, worldwide license and you may use the content for any purpose, whether commercial or non-commercial. You can also modify, reproduce, publish, display and sub-license the photos, as well as create derivative works thereof.

You can download your photos either zipped in a bulk (by clicking Download all photos) or individually by clicking the download icon on each photo.
