Design Your Shop Front

Upload your shop or building photo first, mark the area where you want the vinyl, enter its real measurements, then add your wording, colours or logo. The designer will show a guide price before you send it to BlueStorm for a final quotation.

1. Upload shop / building photo

Choose Shop / Building Photo

Start here. Upload a clear, straight-on photo of the shop, window, vehicle, wall or sign you want to design.

2. Set the fitting area

Enter the real size of the area where the vinyl will go.

First fitting area

Enter the width and height of the real area, then draw the red box around that same part of the photo.

Example:If the shop fascia is 12 ft wide × 2 ft high, enter 12 × 2 feet. The first red box will appear automatically. Drag it over the fascia and use its red corner handle to resize it until it matches that measured part of the photo.

Width – left to right

Height – top to bottom

Measurement unit

Drag the red corner handle to change that area's real width and height. Each red box resizes independently; changing one area does not resize the others.

Upload the photo first, then enter the first fitting-area measurements.

3. Add wording

Text

Across keeps the wording on one line. For normal vertical shop lettering choose Down — the first letter starts at the top and the wording reads downward. Up starts with the first letter at the bottom.

4. Add logo / graphic

Select a red fitting area first. The graphic will be added to that area.

Graphic colours

When you upload a graphic, the designer will estimate how many vinyl colours it uses. You can change this manually if needed.

Add Logo / Graphic to Active Area

Use this button for logos, silhouettes and clipart. The graphic will automatically fit the active red fitting area and its size is controlled by that red box. Transparent edges are trimmed automatically and a plain white background is removed where possible.

How it works: Upload the photo and enter the real size of the fitting area. The red box appears automatically; drag and resize it to cover that measured part of the photo. Lettering can be resized inside it. Uploaded graphics automatically fill their red fitting area proportionally. Use + Add Another Area for another measured section.

DRAW MODE ACTIVE — click and drag across the photo to create the red fitting area.
