Community Mode is an optional setting for Fan Mosaics that lets approved fan photos become part of the shared photo pool. This means future fan mosaics will be created not only with your organization’s official photos, but also with the photos your fans have contributed and you’ve approved.

• Deeper Engagement: Fans don’t just see themselves in the official mosaic – they see themselves reflected in every new fan mosaic created.
• Stronger Community Identity: The mosaic grows richer over time, showcasing not just your organization but also the people who love and support it.
• Momentum & Urgency: Early participants gain extra visibility, since their photos appear in more mosaics. This encourages fans to join quickly.
• Perfect for Grassroots Communities: Schools, rescues, clubs, nonprofits, and other communities where “togetherness” is the heart of the story will shine with this mode.

Not every context is right for Community Mode. If your mosaic is built around brand assets, logos, event photos, or other imagery where you want full creative control, stick with the default Clean Mode. In Clean Mode, fans still get their own personal mosaics, but they’re always built from your organization’s official photos only.

1. You enable Community Mode in your mosaic settings.
2. Fans upload their photos as usual.
3. You review and approve submissions.
4. Once approved, those fan photos appear in your official mosaic and are included in future fan mosaics.

• A rescue group allows supporters’ pet photos into Community Mode. Every fan mosaic uses a mix of official rescue photos and all the approved rescue pets, creating a living tapestry of the community.
• A school runs Community Mode during graduation. Students’ photos appear in the official class mosaic and in every student’s personal fan mosaic, building a shared memory wall.

Community Mode turns a Fan Mosaic into something bigger: a collective canvas built not only from your story, but also from your fans’. Use it when your goal is unity, visibility, and shared ownership of the mosaic. Don't use community mode when you want individual fan mosaics to stay focused solely on your official images.
